crowd gathered around him to inquire
when the town site would be opened.
He addressed the people in brief speech.
He said the surveyors were fastening
their work as rapidly as possible.
but he could not say when it
would be completed. 1t is expected
the opening will take place tomorrow at
noon. People are scattered about so, it
is impossible to make close
estimate as to their number. En-
thusiastic men place the number at
5000, but including the military 1000 seems
to be fair estimate. The northeast quar-
ter Of the northeast quarter has been re-
served for public park, possibly because it
is so cut up with cliffs and gullies that
it has been impossible to make survey of
it. The site occupies an edge of cliff.

SUFFERERS by recent fire in Hous-
ton have sued the owners of the water
works for the amount they lost, be-
cause. as they allege, the supply of
water was short and the firemen could
not fight the flames with effect.
Should a judicial decision uphold their
claim, and establish the principle that
the owners Of the waterworks are pc
cuniarily liable for the losses when the
wafer supply is not as effective as it
should be, there will be considerable
decline in insurance rates; for if the
water pressure were always sufficient
the fremen could often save property
that they lose for lack of water, and
if the water pressure is not as it should
be, the insurance companies could
probably recover a part OF their losses
from the waterworks companies.

A Deputy Marshal Killed.
Special to the Gazette.


TALEoUAH, l. T., Sept. ga messenger
from Fourteen-mie creek, ten miles north
west of this place, has just arrived and re-
ports lively and fatal shooting melee
which occurred yesterday evening. The
participants were United States Deputy
Marshal Joseph Wilson and Samuel
Downing, a full-blood Cherokee, whom the
marshal had gone to arrest on charge
of selling liquor in the Indian Territory.
Wilson left this place yesterday evening
with writ and went to Downing's place of
abode, which is situated back in the flint
hills some distance from any settlement.
The offense of Downing being of trivial
nature, no trouble was anticipated. The
officer went to the house alone, but to
the utter surprise of Wilson, Downing
was armed and fully equipped for battle,
intend to surrender. After consid-
cradle parleying Downing finally
consented TO go with the officer,
and stepped into the house under pretence
Of getting his slddle, and instead of return
ing with a saddle, stepped to the door and
opened fire on the marshal with Win
chester. AS the officer fell to the ground
with bullet in his breast, he returned the
fire, but shot wide of the mark.
Two or three men went to the Downing
house to Investigate the matter, and on ar
rival found about two gallons of blood on
the ground where the officer had lain, but
could not find the body.
A runner came at once to this place and
reported the matter to United States Mar
shall Ridge Paschal, and he, together with
Deputy Marshal Smell and posse, left for
the scene of murder. 1t is thought that
Downing and his associates have hidden or
destroyed the body of Wilson to prevent
Identification. Considerable excitement
prevails. and when the officers reach the
neighborhood more trouble is anticipated.
Wilson was young man about twenty
five years Of age, and was good and brave
officer. He was riding for the United States
court at Muscogee, l. L. Marshal Needles
has been telegraphed of the affair.

site, to have the military deployed facing
both north and south, and drive all the
people from the town site. There will be
soldiers and deputies enough TO place the
men at intervals of about twenty-five yards.
The water supply is still great source Of
annoyance. There seems to be plenty of
water just below the surface and wells are
being dug. Much lumber is arriving and
as soon as people who entered to transact
business get a location they will commence
putting up buildings.

former resident OF Guthrie, has been con-

THE GOSSETC LAW.

American Investments:-Thef foreign
lenders OF money in the state of Texas
are greatly excited over the enactment
of law by the last legislature which
regulates the ownership of land. The
law reads: NO alien or person who
is not citizen OF the United States of
America shall acquire title to or own
any interest in the lands within the
state of Texas, and any deed or other
conveyance purporting to convey such
title or interest to any alien or unnat-
uralized foreigner, or to any firm, COM
pany, or corporation composed OF such
in whole or in part, shall be void" 1t
is somewhat in harmony with the con-
stitutional amendment in Kansas, and
il enforced will cut off the ownership
OF land by aliens, and, of course, drive
out all foreign money-lending by direct
methods. The law will evidentally be
of material benefit to local loan COM
panies, and be the means of stiffening
interest rates, if it does not increase
them several per cent. 1t will be a
matter OF some difficulty to make this
law popular with the masses if borrow
ers find the result of its practical opera
ton to be the raising of rates. There
has been a deal of foreign capital
thrown into this state during late
years, and at fair interest rates. 1t is
not wide of the mark to say that not
less than S5O.O00,0O0 of the mortgage
Indebtedness OF the state is controlled
by foreigners. In addition to
this, foreigners have purchased
somewhat literally OF munich
pal securities, so that their interest in
the welfare OF the state is at the present
writing particularly marked. 1t usu-
ally requires a pretty well developed
state to assume the dictatorship OF in
terest rates and the controlling of its
land owners. Texas has had difficulty
in finding sale for some OF its NUM-
cipal securities, the proceeds Of which
ISCuo " eoAAPiSt iAsSA Ai'NA
improvements already begun. She
will certainly need more money than
her local lenders can furnish to carry
out numberless contemplated projects
in her development. 1t is particularly
an inopportune time now, when funds
are not moving with that freedom
which is desired, that this law should
be placed upon the statute books of the
state. 1t can not improve matters
much, but rather have a contrary
effect. We have not the space to look
at this alien land ownership question
in the abstract, but simply to observe
on its immediate effect on the CONNER
cial industries of that great state.
There mag come a time when Texas
has advanced further along in her stages
of development, when she can be dicta-
torial in financial matters, but we in
cline to the opinion that she has some
what anticipated that period. We be-
lieve the law will be repealed by the
next legislature. Texas ne eds money,
aud when thus in need she can lily af-
ford to put an embargo on it, come from
what quarter it may.

Firing the Grass.

ARKANSAS CITY. KAN, Sept. pa great
many wagons are trailing back over the
Cherokee strip with people who failed to
got claims in the Indian lands opened last
Tuesday. Almost all of them will drift
about, living under canvass, wait
ing for the Strip to open. They
seem to feel as if everyone on the Strip is
their enemy and are said to be firing the
grass in hundreds of places. They do not
know when they are on the Strip, or when
they are on the Indian reservations,
and the reservations along the
Santa Fe have suffered greatly. About
Ponca yesterday the grass was burning on
every side, and it was only after fight that
the houses little way from the station
were saved. To the west the whole line of
the horizon was a wall of smoke.
looking like great chain of mountains
covered with snow to their base. Grass is
getting very dry and burns readily, and
fires are sure to cover large part of the
Strip and render it useless for winter graz

A High Mason Dead.

THORNTON, TEX, Sept. %, 1891

To the Gazette.
Yesterday morning at ) O'Clock, at Groes-
beck, Tex. died DR.. G. p. Turner, for many
years an honored and respected citizen of
this place. DR.. Turner was a native of
Georgia about 1orty-seven years of age,
but, like many Georgians, had at an early
age expatriated himself from the common
wealth of his birth and aligned himself
and his fortunes with the progress and de-
velopment of the Empire state of the South,
and as Texan by choice instead of nativity
he invariably demonstrated his apprecia-
ton of and love for his adopted country,
and was always recognized as man of
great public spirit, one ever ready to ad-
vance the material prosperity of his COM
munity, and in every respect most admir-
able and estimable citizen. His charitable
and generous nature was matter of gen.
eral notoriety. Large was his bounty,
and his soul sincere"
Dr. Turner, as above stated. was by birth
Georgian. He came to Texas in 1872 and
married a Miss Pickens OF Fort Bend county,
b. whom he had one child, boy of some fif-
teen years of age now. He returned to
Georgia, remaining there two years, when
he resumed his residence in this state-a
residence which was to rest unip terrup ted
until broken by the hand of the grim
reaper, death.
DR. Turner lived at this place for many
years. In the practice of his profession
and by his upright and manly character,
his answering integrity and urDane and
genial manners, won the love and esteem
of all who knew MIN. A Mason of high
standing and degree, of Royal Arch rank,
he was for long time worshipful master
of the lodge here. Two years ago he re-.
moved to Groesbeck and engaged in the
mercantile business, which he followed
with great success: and at the time of his
death yesterday was worshipful master Of
the Masonic lodge at that place.
He leaves a wife and child, who have the
genuine sympathy of all who knew him.
Singularly happy in his domestic relations,
a kind and indulgent husband and father,
his decease was doubtless terrible blow to
his sorrowing family. He was buried to-
day at II O'Clock with Masonic honors in
the Faulkenberry cemetery at Groesbeck,
many Masons from Thornton participating
in the ceremonies. May he rest in peace in
that valhalla beyond the grave, which is to
be the portion of all good men and true, and
where none better and truer than George
P Turner will ever be found.

buttons came from Swansea, Wales.
and had the name and trademark OF
the Welsh manufacturer burned in
them. If it is untrue THE GAZETTE,
which wouldn't even lie about a Ne
Kinley button, is very glad to say it
isn't true. Upon the basis of Mr..
Crooks assertion that these buttons are
made in the United States, we are will
ing to confess that the Mckinley bill
has furnished few workmen-a dozen,
perhaps-with employment in making
tin buttons, while it has plundered
million workmen by making them pay
more for their tin buckets.
