Practically all the merchants of the
city were present to cast vote on the
committees named to organize the
home militia, for several days hanging
fire, as well as the other business OF

At the meet it was decided that the

patriotic rally held at the city hall
this morning and there make known
to the citizenship Of Chickasha their
ideas concerning the Liberty bond sit
