Indian chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1882-1902, 1893-11-02

rs many OF the ticket sellers and gate
men have been retained. The closing of
the fair drops many people out of en-
ployment, but il is thought that most
of them will be provided with employ
ment of one kind or another here in the
city. and that no suffering will ensue
among laboring people during the com
ing winter. Many vino have been en-
ployed as guards, gatemen, etc, will
turn in and assist in demolishing the
buildings and restoring jackson park
to It's former state.
A number of improvements made by
the fair will remain TO beautify the
ground and several of the buildings
will be left intact, possibly until next
summer, on account of a special dispo-
sition which is TO be made OF them.
Among these are several state build
ings and two or three foreign buildings.
The Illinois state building, il is said,
is to be perpetuated in a permanent
state fair building Not on account Of
its architectural beauty altogether, II
is thought, as that is not Of a very high
order The dome is high enough at
any rate, and has been the mark of
many shafts of ridicule hurled by crit
ical architects and sculptors But
there Is no question about the Illinois
building being the largest and finest
state building at the fair, as was meet
that IL should be, and its contents were
undoubtedly more varied and beautiful
than those OF any other state building.
As has been stated many of the Mid
way attractions win continue on in
definitely, although the ''get away"
notice has been issued by the maDage-
ment The great feature OF the
Plaisance. the Ferris wheel, il is said,
will continue to revolve where II is as
long as there Is sufficient revenue from
It's revolutions 10 render rotation profit
table.
There is proposition to perpetuate
the magnificent Manufactures building
by rebuilding IL on the city lake front,
plan which was received with spon-
taneous approval Whether IL is put
into execution or not remains 10 be
seen, but it is hardly likely that II
will. as there would be too much polit-
ical engineering neeessitated for the
completion OF the plan
There is also a desire to perpetuate
the beautiful Administration building
In some manner, but the difficulties in
the way OF most OF these schemes are
too numerous. II is thought, TO permit
OF any of them being carried out Chi
cagoans are 50 proud Of the great work
they have done and the great name
they have made that they very natural
lr are anxious 10 commemorate IL all In
tpme lasting form.
A great many OF the more curious
and historic objects Of interest which
nave been displayed at the fair are TO be
gathered into worlds fair museum,
10 be erected in the city on site not yet
chosen Parts of foreign buildings and
exhibits are TO be sold and auctioned
of and disposed of In the most expeii-
tious manner The materials saved
from the buildings will doubtless be
readily disposed Of and the proceeds will
go toward the expense of clearing the
grounds.
Next summer we will walk out and
view a different scene at jackson park.
II they are as expeditions in tearing
down as they were iu building up, and
we will ponder over the wonderful
works OF man, as exemplihed in the
rearing and razing Of the beautiful and
wonderful White City.
