Opera House Building Nineteen years ago tlio ground upon which OKLAHOMA CITV now stands was a vast jirnlrlu Inhabited only by tho Hud MiU'i mid tho wild in 1 1 nuilx, now almost extinct. "Why Coil, In Ills lnflnlto wisdom, should iillow such a glorious country as this roiniiln unoccupied for no long a time. Is a mystery to all, and tho present Inhabitants havo concluded that the only way to recom pense tho (treat Creator for Ills kindness Is to build up a great City, and fill It with people who will do Him homage, and recognize lllui n all 4hlngs. Such a City, wo are now creating; and iu a few more years will havo it accomplished. Within this brief space of tlmo our population litis Increased to nearly 50.000 people, coming from evoiy slate in tho Union lo cast their lots together mul build their homes. To make room for tho vast Influx of people THIS McCANN INVKSTMKNT COMPANY of OKLAHOMA CITY has been organ ized and INCOUl'OKATUD into a .10 1 NT STOCK COMPANY .to place on the market tho McCANN SOUTH HIGHLAND ADDITION that they may bo ablo to take caro of tho people as thoy arrive. This Company has placed the price of lots at $70,00 each, and offers to tnko the small sunt of $10.00 cash and tho balance la pay ments of $.1.00 each month until they aro paid for, nnd thiiH glvo every man a chance to own his own Home. The ADDITION thus platted lays only three miles from tho business center, and In full view of tho City. This Company niUlclpates list within 1S months a street car lino will be runuink through tho addition, which will ninko It one of the most desirable parts of 'tho City to llvo In owing to tho fact of Its laying South, and away from all dirt, dust, sinoko nnd malaria, hat infest all Cities. It has been our expcrlenco that, only those who Invest mako money; and tho sooner thoy mako tho Investment tho sooner they get on top. Tho person who never Invests his mniuey Is tho man who dies poor. Such Is the experience of tho world at largo; and will continue to ho until tho world learns a lesson. Tho tlmo to buy is now, and tho sooiut tho hotter, for tho reason that you can now havo your choice, .which Ib a great benefit to you. The question naturally arises, should I buy without first seeing lots? Yes, you cannot mako a mlstako unless by not buying at all. It you have any doubt about the ultimate result of tho In vestment, you con write to any bank In the city and ask them about our responsibility and the permanency of the City, and If they say not to buy, then we will have no more to say to you. Ono thliK Is sure, the most of those who did come hero and Invest havo become wealthy, and are now on oasy street, while those who ciiiiiu and d'd NOT Invest, hnvo nothing now. Take caro of your earnings and you aro safe; spend your salary foolishly ns you earn it and I will guarantee that you will ucvor havo any thing to your credit but discontentment and sorrow. COMI3, see our Agent and buy a pair of lots In this NKW ADDITION and start on tho road to prosperity at once, and feel like a MAN. All Western men who havo mado great fortunes, havo bought In ndvanco of tho market, Just what wo aro asking you to do; and If you do mi you will win out to advantage. All our greatest men known In history aro men who started poor, and Invested their earnings as they .wont along through life; and continued to keep their money earning somethliii for them. Tho tlmo has come, wheiti a poor mnu Is at a great disadvantage, and Is compelled to accept positions that ho might avoid, had ho -tho proper wealth to help liliubclf with. NOW Is tho tlmo for every younk man to make n start toward bettering his condition. Buy fcomo property and pay it out, then buy nioie, and keep on bulug until you feel tho pressure and you will soon havo plenty. OUR AGENT will call on you and explain the proposition,, nnd when ho does, do not turn him down for ho will do you good. In easo the agent falls to gho you tho desired information, write to the Homo Olllco, stating your wants and tho desired Infor mation will bo furnished. It Is not our desire that auyono bo misled to buy our l.its, for there Is no reason why they should not know all about what they aro getting. I Iu closing .this nrtlclo I must say to you that no matter which lots ycu may choose, jru will mako no mistake, lor Ihoro Is not ONH poor o? undeslralh lot In this addition. Wo shall bo glad to have Slate T.ilr lsltors call at our ofilce and wo will take pleasure la (xpinliiliig our pioposlilon more fully. S. W. McCANN, President THE McCANN INVESTMENT CO Salesmen Wanted.
