Big Meeting.

The meeting held at Geo.
Rucker's Office on Friday evening
of last week to talk over the mat
ter of better roads was very large
ly attended, and there was a unity
of feeling that is very gratifying.
A committee was appointed to
raise funds for the repairing and
building of the road leading from
Baxter to the Sunnyside camp
and on to Lincolnville, and the
committee got very busy. In a
short time in the neighborhood
of 4 thousand dollars was pledged
right here in town, and we under
stand something like seven hum
dred dollars has been pledged
in the country along the route of
the proposed improvement.
II is planned to properly grade
the road, and then coat it with
plenty of rock, dressed with
gravel.
After this work is done it is
then planned to make a gravel
road from Lincolnville to Qua
paw, and in this work the people
of Quapaw will be expected to
lend not only moral, but financial
aid.
tits very gratifying to note the
unity of feeling in this matter.
1t shows that the people can re-
spond if they want to, and as they
realize lhe necessity of good roads
to the mines, it is a cinch that
better reads will be built.

$1,000 Suit.

! Suit was filed In the Cherokee
Co. district court Saturday BY ].
W. Keys who seeks to collect
SIS, 900 damages from Abram Oar
denne, Jr, and Lottie Dardenne,
his wife, for alleged breach OF
contract.
Keys alleges the Dardeunes
gave him an option on a certain
piece of real estate, located in
Oklahoma, and that they sold the
land to another party before the
option expired.
According to the petition, the
Dardenues and Keys entered into
a contract on March Fl, the pro-
vision being that Keys could buy
the land for So, $50 any time with.
in ten days thereafter. Keys al
l.ges that later a contract was
made granting him an extension
of time until April 3.
On April 1, Keys claims he de-
cided to take advantage of the
option and told the defendant he
would buy the land, but that they
informed him that they had sold
the land to Geo. w. Beck, Jr.,
for $4,000.
Alleging that the Dardenues
broke their contract with him and
that the deal cost him a large
amount of time and money, Keys
alleges he was damaged to the
extent of $50 and the suit is
the result.
