Of concrete sidewalks multiplied into
many more miles. They want all the
lawns kept up in symmetry and style
IAN these things are coming as fast
las the human strength and the avail
able capital can bring them; which is
pretty fast in that country Of unend-
ing energy and the rapid accumula-
ton Of wealth.
IN few places in the world could
there be found more comfortable
homes than those that grace the
streets Of Chickasha. Some Of them
are elaborate. it is true, but that is
not the thing that appeals the strong
est. The simpler home is the one
that the average man iooks at, for it
is the one that he is most likely to
be able to duplicate; and of these
there are many that bear the stamp
of comfort and contentment at every
turn.
An immense dam is being placed
across the Washita river near the
city This stream constantly has a
strong flow of water in its bed and
the fall past Chickasha is great
enough to give much surplus water.
By building huge stone dam it is
the aim to furnish the power neces-
sary to create an electric current so
strong as to supply innumerable fac
tories at price SO low that they
cannot pass the place by in making
selection Of a location.
THE Commercial Club records now
show an unusual number Of inquiries
received as a result Of the publicity
given the new power dam And it
would not be amiss here to say that
Mr. Cad Allard, the Commercial Clubs
secretary, is one Of the livest publicity
agents one could find in a years tray-
els He has that keen eye which dis
Germs a good story, and that new
country is full Of good stories.
When he sees one Of them he
makes it his business to let some edi-
tor see it, The result usually is some
thing that attracts more attention to
Chickasha. The beauty Of it is that
Mr. Allard's stories always prove
themselves true to the man who is
attracted to the city by them"

AS OTHERS SEE US.

It's shame the way folks all over
the country are talking about Chicka-
sha, but there's no use to try to stop
it. After hearing the melodious sound
OF our own horn, it is interesting to
listen to the following from the South
west Trail Chicago periodical:
"Chickasha is called The Queen Of
the Washita Valley by some of her
more enthusiastic citizens. Standing,
as 1t does, in the center Of the land
so greatly enriched by the Washita
river, the claim seems well founded
That the city's growth has been COM
mensurate with SO high a claim is
readily conceded when one pays it a
visit On every hand there is visible
the expenditure of the kind Of energy
that counts for the making of an i'm
portant business center.
Whatever may be the reason Tor It,
Chickasha has grown to be an inn
pressiye city Il is claimed for it
that the population is 1880 The
casual visitor cannot Ray whether this
is an exaggeration that may come with
enthusiasm, but the area covered and
the closeness with which the blocks
are built up tempt one to accept the
figure as authentic And the charac-
ter Of the homes and business blocks
give tone that might we'll belong
to a city Of many times the popula-
ton claimed
Like all Of the quick growth cities
of the new state, Chickasha has been
unable to fully keep up with itself in
the line Of public improvements. It
is true there has been much pavement
laid and much more is being laid.
These add greatly to the citys appear
ance, but the hustling people there are
not satisfied. They want more pave
ment. They want the many miles

In spite Of the fact that Mr. Taft
has declared against the bank guaran-

It, Judge Dickerson comes forward to
inform us that bank insurance is not a
political issue. declaring that both
parties favor it, In the face Of the
facts, the process Of thinking by which
the Judge reaches this conclusion is
a deep mystery There is no reason
why it should be a political issue,
but by foolishly opposing it, the Re-
publeans have made it such.
