A CHEERFUL OUTLOOK.

No industry is a certainty until 1t
is in operation, but it is practically
certain that the creamery will be
built. There is a legitimate demand
and for a small sum at that, to build
a packing plant here that Will meet
the demands of the trade territory of
the town. a small factory for the
manufacture of oyeralls and shirts is
on its way to Ardmore and will be
built. a furniture and a wagon fac
tory are in prospect. The cigar fac
tory is the largest in the state. The
candy factory is also the largest In
the state.
Ardmore has demonstrated the fact
that it can do things. Get in with the
boosters, but best of all. come in with
the commercial club where your dol
lars are needed.

ARDMORE ON TRUNK LIME
FROM MEMPHIS TO GOLDEN
GATE

b. L. YOalum has announced that
he vii build line of railroad to
the Pacific coast. b. f. Yoakum
generally carries out his plans, and
it may be accepted as fact that
Yoakum will build this line of
railway.
This statement coming in rapid
succession following the rumored an
nouncement that Ardmore would be
on trunk line of road leading
from Memphis to California. gives
color to the belief that the exten-
sion toward the Golden Gate will
be made from this town.
Through the southern portion Of
Oklahoma is the logical point for
this road to build; it will be
southern route to California. it will
be removed from the zone of bliz-
yards of the country farther north;
1t will be advertised as the scenic
route through former beautiful In
NldH Il lllOlg " mere every mile oil
road presents some interesting view
of the faded republic of the In
dians; it will be the shortest route
by many hours of travel; it will
have the advantage of passing
through the richest coal and oil
fields OF Oklahoma; it will pass
through a rapid growing portion of
Texas; it will tap the fine fruit
belt of Arizona en- route: it will
have a hundred advantages over a
similar road traversing any other
portion of the country 1t is the log
ical route for the railway people
to select, and will mean much for
southern Oklahoma to have this line
built, as it seems to be outlined
at this time.
