that was the only way by which we
could get road, but between the
time that contract and bonus was
raised and the present contract and
bonus arranged, the legislature met
and passed a law whereby the four
big corporations might acquire the
right OF eminent domain by permis-
sion of the corporation commission,
also the proposition OF Tesubmitting
Sec. . of Art. TX, so at the time Of
the second bonus and contract It did
not seem to be necessary to donate
TO Mr.. Ringing or anybody else, TO
build that line, as ! positively be-
lieve that if he had stayed out OF
the field, we would now have a line
in operation between here and Wan-
rika and it would not have been built
to the detriment of any other towns
which had already been established
in good faith along the line OF the
old Frisco survey.
Ever since Oklahoma has been a
state, it has been the cry by the
press and all politicians down with
railroads and corporatiOns' Now
then, the Joiner City people are poor
people. Mr. Ringing is worth his
millions, why should the people OF
Ardmore or Carter county work to
The interest of the town of Ringing
located in jefferson county, to the
detriment of Joiner City, located i'll
our own county? The Hon. MI SuggS
stated Tuesday night at the meeting
that he was for the state of Oklaho-
ma as against all other states, and
for Carter county and Ardmore as
against all other counties and towns. |
If so, why does he boom the town of
Ringing as against the town of Join
er City? If he is not doing it indi- |
vidually, his paper is doing it.
| do not feel like passing this by |
without paying my compliments to |
the corporation commission also, in |
regard to their attitude in the above |
matter. 1t seems to me that 1t Is |
pretty near time that we should
have a change in the complexion of |
the corporation commission. Mr.. Wat |

like it is all tommy-rot to try to keep !
them from breaking it. What is the |
use to make contract with such |
people. As | have above said, II
seems to me easy to read between |
the lines. | have put the proposition |
up in this manner, that they want |

break their contract, form another
company, close the gap between
Ringing and the Rock Island, and
also build from Ringling to Oklahoma
City. As it is already rumored, they
have been flirting with Oklahoma
City, and have the promise OF the old
Deimar Garden for their terminus.
Can you say that if that line should
be built that it would not be detri-
ment to Ardmore? Oklahoma City is
now trying to claim to be the Oil
center of the state; Cushing being her
nearest field, and ArdmOre next.
should that line be built, will not that
make them the oil center of the state?
That bunch up there is right thrifty,
thrifty enough that in order to make
the town, they have taken everything
away from the balance Of the towns
of the state, without any scruples
whatever, and they will take Ardmore
next, if you don't look out. They are
after you right now, and it seems TO
me time for ArdmOre and Carter coun-
tv to call a halt while there is time.
The greatest thing Ardmore can
do IS to look out for her own inter-
ests and get in behind the lnterurban
line. Does Ardmore want anything
in the northwest except an interur-
han line? If you build anything else,
or allow it to be built and cut the
wagon trade off from ArdmOre, and
lose that territory, you may kiss Ard
more Goodbye.
Whatever may be said in reply 10
this. do not accuse me OF being
against railroads, because | am for
them, first and last, but not for any
townsite proposition, such as has
been pulled off. When the Santa Fe
railroad built their lines, they put in
switches and depots at the towns
already located, regardless of condi-
tions as to track and grade. For eN-
ample, | would like to cite you to the
town of Orlando, above Guthrie,
where passenger trains going east
have to slack several times to start
their trains, and sometimes have to
back up and take a run; and all the
four old roads that were built before
statehood, were built the same way
This is all for the present, maybe
more later, is necessary.
