The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1886-04-10

1t is proposed to celebrate on the
4th of March, 1887, the fiftieth ami
versary of the incorporation of Chi
cago. No city in the United States
has attained to such a marvellous
growth within the space of fifty
years as that of Chicago in respect
both of wealth and population.
Founded on the site of old Fort
Dearborn, on the southwestern shore
of Lake Michigan, at the edge of a
vast plain stretching far back into
the interior, it had in 1887, when it
was first incorporated, but four thou.
sand. one hundred and seventy in
habitants. In 1880, the census re-
ported the population at five hundred
and three thousand one hundred and
eighty-fve, and at the present time
it is within the mark to compute it
at six hundred and fifty thousand.
Established in what at that time was
little better than swamp, and lying
so low as to be subjected to storms
and foundations from Lake Michi-
gan and the Chicago river, the whole
city has been raised until it now
stands about nine feet above. high
tide. In 1929 there were but ten
families clustered about Fort Dear
born, and it was not until 1850 that
the population rose to over twenty
eight thousand. The completion in
1S4S of the Illinois and Michigan
canal, connecting the south branch
of the Chicago river with the Illinois
river at La Sale, a distance of nine
ty-six miles, was the first thing that
gave an impetus to the new town. The
grant of public lands to Illinois for
railway purposes, and the extension
of the Eastern railway system to
Chicago, all of which roads were
reaching out to the grain regions
and the beef and pork products of
the west, which were beginning to
find their center of trade at Chica-
cago, was the next great factor in
so promoting its growth that the
population rose from twenty eight
thousand in 1850 to one hundred
and nine thousand in 1860, and the
value of real estate from seven mil
lions of dollars to thirty seven mil
lions of dollars during the same dec
ade. The breaking out of the civil
war and the enormous demands it
created for breadstuffs and provis-
ions benefited Chicago to such an
extent that between 1860 and 1870
its population increased from one
hundred and nine thousand to near
ly three hundred and seven thousand
and the value of it's personal and
real estate from thirty seven mil
lions to two hundred and seventy
six millions. In 1880 its population
was, as we have said above, five
hundred and three thousand, and in
1882, from a local census taken at
that time, it was estimated to have
reached six hundred thousand.
That population is cosmopolitan in
the extreme. Of the six hundred
thousand of which it is made up
only two hundred thousand are ma

This Mugwump twaddle that
Cleveland is better than his party
had as well be stopped. The Hon.
Lewis Baker is credited with the
above nonsensical remark but he
never made it. The President NAV
be better than many Democratic
leaders but he is rot half Us good as
his party-in fact there in no COM
parison between them. Was Gen.
Grant better than the Union Army?
Was Abraham Lincoln better than
the American Union? Was st.
Paul better than the Christian
Church? Why even the Republican
party is BETTER than any man in it.

Offers of aid were sent from all
surrounding points, and engines
were kept in readiness to be forward
ed at moments notice. Strikers
are arriving at Fort Worth from va
rious outside points and the state
ment is made that the Knights of
Labor have determined that Fort
Worth shall be the point where
trains shall be stopped at all haz-
yards and that there they will win
their battle.
On the other hand it is said that
the citizens of that city declare that
the Missouri Pacific trains shall
move, even though it costs scores of
lives to accomplish it.

FIRST OUTBREAK.

FoRT WORTH, TEX, April 3.-At
10 O'Clock this morning 1,500 peopl lie
assembled at the Missouri Pacific
depot to see Sheriff Mattox send out
train, which he said last night he
would do or die in the attempt. At
4 o'clock this train pulled out for
the south, and reached the New Or
leans crossing, two miles south of
the city, where Sheriff Maddox and
posse were attacked and regular
battle ensued.
A later dispatch says: The sug-
gcstive quiet that marked the pas
sage of the freight train through the
city was not without its sequel.
When the train left the depot it was
under the protection of posse of of
ficers commanded by Jim COPYRIGHT.
The train proceeded to the crossing
of the Fort Worth and New Orleans
road when it stopped, as customary.
What followed is reported by rail
road employee who was on the train.
He says that when the train was
stopped it was noticed that several
men were congregatcd on the track
