JUNE 4th the Muskogee fair
yielded up the ghost. For years
ii has been in tottering condi-
ton and each year threatened 70
be its last-in fact it was dead
institution, but the stockholders,
with finger on pulse, declared it
still alive till the meeting this
June. Then they decided it was
useless to try longer to keep up
the deception, so sadly declared it
dead. Her sister towns sympa-
thize with Muskogee, but knew
all the time she could not make a
success of a fair. Vinita is the only
town in B. l. T., that makes fair
a howling success.

IT is reported that the latest
move is to get the colored people
to agree to give 25 per cent. of the
per capita soon to be paid them,
as a fund to influence further fa-
vorahle action on the part of con-
gress. We again desire to warn
the colored people against signing
any papers whatever. The gov
ernment does not Lave to be sub
sidized to do justice by any class
of its citizens or those under its
care, as the passage of this very
$4,000 appropriation shows
What is due you will be provided
without the creation of a "slush
fund. Don't give one cent.

THE CHIEFTAIN will gladly give
space to both sides on the allot-
ment question. Truth and right
should direct the affairs Of this
nation, not superstitious regard
for past customs, regardless OF
consequences. Come, let US rea-
son together Let's have both
sides, so that the truth can be
found. If allotment is best for
our country, let US be sensible and
do what is best; if it is best to
hold the land in common, let us
hold it in common. An openi
honest discussion can hurt only
the wrong side.

RENDsYzLLE,

At the last meeting Of the alliance
after listening to the report of dele
gate to the State Alliance convention
the question presented at the pre-
vious meeting was taken up. The
question was this: Resolved that
high tariff does not benefit the farm
er, will not say that this question
was discussed because it is not sup
posed that farmers know enough to
discuss such deep" subject, SO
will say that there was very earnest
talk lasting more than an hour.
We admit that the tariff question
ga deep question, one that requires
great talent and deep thought, yet
We farmers claim to know enough
about high tariff to know whether it
benefit or an. injury to us. will
give the views of those that spoke.
One man read a piece from q news
Taper on high tariff but it was an old
thread bare story worn out years ago,
it was like the recent howl of the r.
4. Company in Iowa: it is going to
ruin the manufactures If the tariff is
reduced, but ten to one of the farmers
- this town have no fears of any
such ruin. in fact the ground taken
vas, that the foundation of all trusts
and monopolies is high tariff. That
monopoly has placed many kinds of
goods beyond the reach of the poorer
class
We have been told that the greatest
reform, reform that will benefit the
largest part of the people oti this
country, is to fertilize the brain Of
the farmer, that is what we aredoing,
we are posting our selves not in the
old party ways. but enlighteningsour
selves as to what will be of the
l.ratest good to the largest number
If people; and we are convinced that
: reduction of the tariff and the con-
.equent downfall of trusts, and the
Introduction of competition will bring
bout a great reform, that will be of
Icaiculable benefit to the farm ers
md the aboring class.

FORT WORTH.
Something About Its Location and
Many Advantages.
Character Of fsr PeopIe-why She VIII be
the Largest City in Texas.
Tributary Territory

Fort Worth is said to be a well adver-
tised city, but how many there are who
do not know many material things about
her past, present aud future. Texas has
to-day no great city, but within q very
few years will have a metropolis that
Will be as New York to New York, Bos-
ton to Massachusetts,, Philadelphia to
Pennsylvania, Chicago TO Illinois, ST.
Louis to Missouri--and that city will be
Fort Worth.
Men make cites, and causes bring
men. Fort Worth has the causes, and
the men are coming.
Fort Worth is located on the Trinity
river, at the confluence of the Clear fork
and West fork, WATCH form an ever llv-
ing stream furnishing an abundant sup
ply of pure water, and providing an out
let below the city for sewerage.
One fact mag here be stated that will
have much to do with Fort Worth s
supremacy. No city in North Texas,
the grain belt of the state, save and ex-
cept Fort Worth has an abundant water
supply. No city east of Fort Worth has
1t and no city can Cbtaiu it.
Fort Worth Is shs only city in the
whole state that nas a sewerage system
that is complete. FOrty-fve miles of
sewers drain this city. No city in Texas
at present located can have perfect
sewerage system save and except Fort
Worth.
Fort Worth is in new Texas, peopled
in the last fifteen years. Her population
is essentially that of Western city. She
is the only large place in the new South
west.
Fort Worth is the only city of any size
in Texas located By skilled engineers.
1t was chosen as a pest by engineers of
the United states government on account
of its altitude, its limestone foundation,
its proximity to water and the fact that
the preERiting wind-that from the south
-passei Oyer re stream.
For. worth i at the point where the
great wheat belt of Texas begins, and
the grain country of Texas lies west
northwest and southwest of her. Three
great trunk lines penetrating this belt
have their initial point at Fort Worth,
and a fourth trunk line is now building
from Fort Worth in a northwesterly di-
rection, through IN occupied but rich
country.
All the vacant farming lands in TEXAS
lie west of Fort Worth.
Fort Worth has trade territory undis-
puted of 400x600 miles. No other city i'll
Texas has 100 miles square.
Seven trunk lines center at Fort
Worth, giving her eleven outlets for
trade.
Rich iron deposits have been found
within ten miles of the city, and Fort
Worth is nearest all the coal fields in
Texas which are west of her.
Fort Worth is nearer to the iron, man
ganese and granite of Llano county than
any city in Texas.
Two railroads now radiate from Fort
Worth into the republic of Mexico. and
third line is well on Its way to that rich
country, Fort Worth will command the
trade of Mexico.
Besides the pure water from the river,
Fort Worth has 100 artesian wells, which
furnish the finest freestone water found.
Building stone and paving material are
near at hand.
To-day Fort Worth has SO 900 people;
in five years she will have loo, 200 people
or more.
