Ada growth era links site to 1900 post office plan
In 1900 Ada Oklahoma and Indian Territory saw an option on land for a new federal building site. Frank Bebee secured six lots at the corner for a 0 day option and later the government paid 24 000 for six plus two more. The piece covers local real estate dealings and a later choice of the same site for the new post office, federal court and offices amid town growth and rail expansion. It also surveys advances in weather forecasting and telescope projects, noting Dr Jakob Bjerknes and Dr Walter Adams and the 200 inch telescope quest at Mount Wilson and Caltech with implications for future astronomy and weather science.
