A DENIAL or THE STATEMENT
AS PUBLISHED IN DEMOCRAT

committee met on the evening of
the 1ith inst, and was ready 20
close the deal. Mr.. Taylor and Mr.
Darden were present, representing
the farmers interests, and asked
that the rebuilding of a warehouse
be not considered, but to refund to
the individual farmer the amount
of money he had put into It. This
at first was approved by Mr.. Hard
ing, and the outire committee
thought that the deal was ready to
be closed.
! did not ask that any proposi-
tion be amended, but from some un-
known cause Mr.. Harding did not
understand the proposition as the
committee did. Mr.. Harding stated
that he had other lots offered to
tim. and If he failed TO get the
property of the Western Storage
company, same would not interfere
with his coming to Ardmore. and
he. CMr. Harding) called the deal
off. further deny the statement
made In the Morning Democrat of
the 10th inst. that the committee
reconsidered the matter and called
Mr.. Harding into consultation with
them in the office or Hon. A. c.
Cruce, but as ! passed the Ardmore
National bank on the morning of
the 18th inst, going to my offire,
Hon. Lee Cruce stated to me that
Mr. Harding was in the office of
Hon. 4. c. Cruce. and wanted to
meet the committee. assured him
that was ready, but this meet
ing did not occur until the afternoon
of the same day. An agreement was
entered into at once. The contract
was made in accordance with the
first proposition made to the stock
holders at the stockholders meet
ing, and the stockholders appoin-
ted a committee to close the deal
on that basis.
The contraoI as published in the
Morning Democrat of the 10th inst,
Is correct with the exception that
the notes are to bear s per cent in
tcrest instead OF 6 per cent.
Yours truly,
J. X. PENNINGTON.

As one of the directors of the
Western Storage company, and one
of the committee appointed by the
stockholders of said company, 1t is
only justice to myself and other
members of the committee that you
publish the following statement
Some one wlfully. maliciously or
through ignorance reported to the
Morning Democrat things that> are
absolutely false and never did ex-
list. Besides it has been reported on
the street that Lee Cruce and J.
Il. Pennington refused to turn the
property over to Mr.. Harding for
the reason that they wanted to graft
it. This gossip came from parties
who have not enough interest in the
city TO pay for n single share OF
stock of the Western Storage com
pany. Mr.. Harding, together with
the secretary of the Commercial
Club came to me and wanted to buy
the property belonging to the Wes-
tern Storage company. Being anx-
ious to have Mr.. Harding lotte the
foundry in Ardmore, | at once called
a meeting of the directors, and
there We formulated proposition
that We thought would be an in
ducement to Mr.. Harding and at
the same time protect the stock
holders against material loss. We
then called stockholders meeting
as we desired to please everybody,
and this meeting was held Monday
morning last at the city hall. The
stockholders were all notified of the
purpose of the meeting, and the
statement was also made that Mr..
Harding and the foundry would be
OF great benefit to the town.
We, as directors. advised the
stockholders to agree to the propo-
sition made to MIR. Harding by said
directors, and understood that
same was accepted. There was a
committee appointed at this meet
| ing to complete the deal with Mr..
Harding, as it had been outlined.

 THE ALLEGED FlRE.-There was an alarm of fire last evening that lpade people sit up and take notice. The bell sounded No. 51. a general alarm. and it was assumed at once that the whole town was burning up. The supposition at the time the alarm was turned in was that the New York store was burning but it was soon demonstrated that there was nothing doing. The alarm was turned in on the strength of a strong odOr of smoke that issued from the store and was very HpllOtdbl' TIT bilt 9tiVV'' ii''OS'' gation revealed that a clerk had thrown some rags in stove in the evening and there being little fire and the atmosphere heavy, they merely smouldered and the smoke as it emerged from the chimney settled over the street, some of it perhaps escaping within. refusing to go up the flue.

'CoE MAN FOR BELLEVUE HEAD
Rev. II. H.. Maynard Accepts Presi-
dency of College Under Ger
tnin Conditions.

Rev. H. H. Maynard OF Coe college, has
been offered the presidency Of Bellevue
college and he has accepted that position
conditionally.
The board met at II o'clock Tuesday
morning in annual session and the morn
ing was taken up in listening to the read
ing of the meeting. These minutes were
not adopted, but were held over for the
afternc on session for fprther discussion.
In ADDITION to the reading of the minutes
plans Tor the demonstrating were dis
cussed.
The records OF the action of several of the
committees showed that there has been a
slight difficulty in the financial affairs OF
the college and that with the resignation
Of President Wadsworth the trustees have
been seeking a man of marked executive
ability who could also look after the
finances of the institution.
1t was also announced that the r~esigna-
ton Of DIR. Guy w. Wadsworth, president
OF the college, is in the hands Of the trus-
tees. DR.. Wadsworth resigned to accept
the pastorate Of the First Presbyterian
church Of Puebl5. This church. is one Of
the most prominent Presbyterian churches
OF the west and DR.. Wadsworth is receiv-
ing congratulations upon his call to 1t.
Action on the removal OF Bellevue college
to Omaha has not been taken. "A report
has been current for several days that If
Mr.. Maynard is secured as president the
college moved to Omaha and another
change made, a large sum of money from
a certain source will be available. This
sum has been mentioned as being as much
as $4,000.
Some sentiment has existed for a long
time in favor OF a r~eslignment in the board
of trustees whereby Presbyterian churches
other than the First OF Omaha might have
active representation on the board. 1t is
understood that one Of the changes de-
sired is that the college be made a nom
synodical institution. 1t is now under the
synod of Nebraska. which makes 1t a sec
tartan school.

TOO MUCH WIND FOR FRUIT
That IL George b. PowelI's Judgment
OF Twin Falls Country, Just
Opened.

IF apple orchards are ever planted on
the $1,000 acres of land near Twin Falls,
Idaho. which has just been opened and
widely advertised. they will have to ar
range to tie the apples on with wires"
said George B, Powell, chief inspector OF
the Omaha Grain exchange when he re-
turned from Idaho Tuesday.
THE wind blows there necessarily and 1t
would be about ali the trees could do to
remain in the ground. 1 have no desire
to knock the Idaho land, but that offered
around Twin Falls is fit for anything but
fruit. But hundreds have been drawn to
Twin Falls believing they could secure
fruit growing land according to the adverg
,tising. The land is first class for dairy
ing and agriculture.
''The crop of alfalfa has been so bounti-
full that it is selling for s. per ton near Twin
rails and may be bought baled Tor less than
"a. Potatoes were selling for 25 cents per
sack of 100 pounds when l left, though
there was something like eight inches of
snow on the ground on the big tracts north
of Twin Falls. The land makes me think
Of western Nebraska. 1t is not much Diff
ferent and WIN be just as valuable when
irrigated"
Mr.. Powell visited Grand Junction and
other fruit stations, buying forty acres
near DeBeque.
