Government Takes Hand
in NeLI-ESChite Fight

Guthrie, okla, Sept s.-Arguments
are being made in the United States
court today in the injunction suit filed
by the United States against Ben
West and others Of Kell, a town To-
Gated in Comanche county, in what
was known as the big pasture reserve.
The case was originally tried in the
district court Of Comanche county,
where the townsite people of KelI
won the suit, from which decision the
government appealed to the supreme
court and under the enabling act, it
being a United States suit, it was
transferred to the United States cir
cult court. The townsite case Of
Eschit, in which the government is
also appearing against the Wichita
Falls & Western railroad, is one in
one in which the plaintiffs seek to
compel the road to build depot at
Eschitl. The case is Of long standing
In the courts and the rivalry between
the towns was intense. The gov
ernment laid out the townslte Of Es-
chit at the opening Of the pasture
reserve and the Wichita Falls railroad
which built line into the pasture
soon after the opening, started the
town of Kell, mile from Eschiti, OF
a farm drawn by ]. w. Field, civil
engineer, employed by the road, and
refused to build a depot at Eschiti
The government brought suit against
the road, claiming that 1t had no pow
er to make townsite Of a claim tax
en- for homestead purposes, when il
had not been settled upon and a pat
ent granted by the government. The
citizens of Eschiti also filed complain
asking for the erection Of depot
The commission dismissed the com
plant, holding that it would be un
} reasonable to compel the road to erec
depot there.
The towns came TO an agreemen
7 several weeks ago that they woul
. bury the hatchet under the terms tha
the townsite of Eschiti be abandoned
d that the citizens OF Kell give tn
d Eschit residents free lots in the Ke
: townsite and that the houses an
d store buildi4gs of Eschid be move
y to Kell
e It is thought that the cases wi
e be dismissed by the citizens of E
chit if the government will consel
to such action.
