NO APPOINTMENTS MADE.
Looks Now Like Some Compromis,
Measure Is Required.

The board of city commissioners
held a conference Saturday morning
and another one Saturday afternoon
but it was given'ou that nothing def
mite was accomplished and that moth,
ing would be done before Tuesday
night and probably not then.
1t is very evident that the entire
board is not of the same mind for the
reason that the appointments are
hanging fire. However. nothing is
said on the outside to lead the people
to understand Just where the hitch is
and in this matter the board is using
excellent judgment.
From surface indications il seems
that some member or members must
show disposition to give and take
and by that means effect compro
mise or the appointments will be in
the air for many days TO come.

DALLAS PEOPLE
VISIT ARDM0RE
MAYOR DAWSON PRESEN ED
THEM WITH THE KEYS TO THE
CITY.

The Dallas trades excursion was
DELAYED Friday evening in reaching
here, but no one expected them TO
be on the dot and the vast throngs
OF peopla who assembled at the union
depot TO greet them upon their arri-
val waited patiently. The country east
of here Is SO pretty and 50 prosper

staying overtime with the towns,
and there are places east of Ard

was stopped in the midst OF fields 10

to see the abundant haryests that
are ripcning in southern Oklahoma.
Who expected them to be on time?
not The Ardmorc people.
When the train pulled in over the
Frisco the Dallas people formed in
two lines and headed by their band
marched westward mp Main street
and returned to Washington and
Main, where VIII Fraleys auto was
driven 20 the center of the street
and formed a Platform for the speak
crs. II was Mayor plWson's first
appearance in public since his in
auguration and his speech came up
fully To the expectations of the peo-
pie His voice was fine and he could
be heard well above The noise Of
the throng. From the placc OF
speaking the Dallas people went
among the merchants The stores
were open, the lights were burning,
the city was as light as day, and
two hours were spen, with a visit
among the merchants
The Dallas peop.e had many things
to say of Ardmore The cleanliness
of the city. the pure water supply
and the prosperous appearance OF
the business houses came in for a
great deal OF praise.
In all more than 200 persons were
ON the train and the larger portion
OF them were heads of Dallas firms.

Dallas News readers, accompanied the

PRESTIGE is DALLAS NEED.

The visit of the Dallas people will
result in closer relations between
the two cities. The Dallas people
have great market they can sup
ply the needs of the people here
as well as some of the cities in the
north and the only requirement nee
essary for Dallas to have to grow
into q great Wholesale center is to
acquire prestige. When merchants
are glad TO tell their customers that
their goods came from The Dallas
market then Dallas will have the
prestige it needs New York has the
prestige now and every merchant
feels that he must visit the New
York market every year Many of
them get no further than St Louis
and Cincinnati, but the customer is
just as we'll pleased if he thinks
the shipments were made from the
great center of trade. Dallas can ac-
Quirc that prestige more quickly by

the customer is pleased with Dallas
goods then the merchant will carry

statements tending to sllay excite
ment, but in the statements issued
today no enort is made to minimize
the seriousness oi the situation In
Mexico.
For instance: The situation about
Acapulco as affecting America cit
liens" says one official statement
is regarded as the most d.squieting
now reported to the department, and
it is earnestly hoped that the report
ed negotiations now on between the
federal government and the revo.u-
tionary leaders in the states of
Guerrero and Morelos will soon have
resulted TO put en- end to the intol
cradle conditions now existing
Anxiety Seems increasing
Here is another statement given
out by the state department that has
made Washington sit up and take
notice:
"Mr. Henry Lane Wilson, the
American ambassador at Mexico City,
telegraphs that the anxiety and
alarm among the American and for
eign elements Of the city seem to be
! increasing. He states that this is due
| in some measure to apprehension of
the failure of the peace negotiations
and a consequent prevalence of an
archy."
According to others of these war
bulletins, the insurgents held up a
train near Saltillo and seized 800
rifles and 10000 cartridges. Nuevo
Laredo fears trouble and the police
force has been increased revolu
tionists are recruiting near San Luis
Potosi minor disturbances have oc.
CURED and the situation shows no
improvement"
II is rare in the history of Ameri-
can diplomacy that the American pub.
iic has been so frankly taken into
the confidence of the state depart
ment in regard to the alarming sit
uation in a neighboring country. The
purpose of this course is responsible
for much speculation.
views on Situation
One view is that the government
is about to send warships to such
Threatened ports as Acapu'co and Ma.
Zatlan; another is that the admins
tration has come TO the conclusion
that intervention is almost a GER
tainty, and this almost unreserved
discussion Of the true issue in Mex.
leo is TO but prepare the public for
Intervention.
This latter view appears to be
strongly borne out in the disclosures
which came from members of the
military affairs committee of the
| house.

tender to our legislators our very
earnest thanks for their action in
recommending to our congressman

We deeply deplore the action of
both our senators doing all they can

ing before the committee yesterday
on the pending army reform bills,
pointed out the relevancy Of the bill
under consideration to the army
movement in Texas and its import
ance TO the plans Of the army in
