Com mmIfsioner OF Pensions Loch
rem has decided, after mature con.
slderation, that to carry out his
policy successfully in the Pension
bureau he must have new chiefs in
every division in the Office, and the
present chiefs, some of whom are
notoriously inefficient, will all have
to 90. Some Of them who have
made fairly good records will be
allowed to remain as clerks. Some
OF these chiefs, although they are
Republicans, have influential Dem
ocrats trying TO save their official
heads, but Judge Lochron says he
intends to put the Office upon what
nc considers strictly business
basis and that no amount Of influ.
cncc will change his purpose.

WASHINGTON, -. e., June 3. 1893.
Secretary Carlisle has made it a
rule to SEQ everybody that called on
him at his office until this week,
when after much deliberation he
came to the conclusion that his pro.
miscuous callers were taking up SO
much OF tho time that should be
devoted To weightier matters that il
was his duty to follow the prcsi.
dents example and deny himself to
general callers. and an announce.
ment to that effect was mado. II
is easy enough to see Secretary Car.
lislo # yoar business is of public
nature, but otherwise YOU cannot.
Theoretically it scoms hard on some
of his callers, but practically there
was no other course left for him TO
take. In tho present state of the
country tho official duties OF the
Secretary of the Treasury arc OF the
highest Importance. more depend.
ing directly upon him than upon
any other member of tho cabinet,
and John Griffin Carlisle has never
shirked or neglected his duty, al
though he has often found it, as he
probably does in tins case, more or
less painful to perform.

ABOUT TAKING TOWN LOTS.

A good many questions ara being asked
daily with reference to the Cherokee strip
and more points are brought up than any
body has ever heard Of before. One gues-
tion that is asked very often aud that is,
Can q person take claim and a town
lot also" For the benefit Of those seek
ing information AN EAGLE reporter inter-
viewed a gentleman connected with the
general land Office at the Carey last night
and he answered the question in the
affirmative He said that upon applica-
ton at any booth man can get two certi-
Gcates, one emitting him to claim and
the other emitting him to town lots, pre-
vided, of course, that he is entitled to
them under the land laws. II he fails to
find claim to suit him he can ride
on to town and take
IL town lot, or two Of them If he wants to
one for business purposes and one for =
residence.
Another question asked is. whether a
man who has exhausted his rights in TAX
ing claim under the homestead, preemp-
ton or timber culture laws can take town
lots. This question is also answered in
the affirmative
1t is doubtful, however, whether man
eau take claim and also take town lot
for residence purposes, for it is difficult for
him to satisfy the government that he
wants a home In the city when it is neces-
sary for him to be making his home on a
claim.

OKLAHOMA CROPS.

Wichita is always interested in the
prosperity of Oklahoma and particularly
our business interests. James J. Wind
issued q report under date of yesterday, as
follows:
"Al crops are matured and safe with
the single exception of cotton, which IS
from two to three weeks late.
In the southern portion. (Chickasaw
and Choctaw natious,) The bollS are nearly
all open and picking begun; in the other
sections only the lower bolls are beginning
I o open. The crop has come out wouder-
fully during the past TWO weeks. Grass,
too, has done finely aud a good crop is be-
ing harvested, the weather being perfect
for curing and stacking. The greater part
of blowing for wheat has been completed
and some wheat mas already been sown.
SELECTED OBSERVERS REMARKS

THE SECRET OF wICHlTA's SUCCESS,

The prosperity now coming upon Wichi-
ia is so clearly in sight, and so certain,
that word or two as to how We should
take it, is pertinent.
1t is a part oil our character as city to
be enthusiastic, of which we shall not
complain, well knowing that enthusiasm
has its uses, and that the work we had set
ourselves to do could not be done without
it, as no great work in any line OF endeavor
has ever succeeded when that were want
ing But let US accept the beginnings of
the fruition of our labor and our hopes
modestly. Let us not crow over the less
fortunate cities, far and near, who sneer
at enthusiasm because they have it not,
nor realize what and how much they lack
We always have been modest concerning
Wichita and its destiny, fact that our
friends in rivalry have not given US credit
for.
AS they see the folly of saying for
their communities the things that are
sober facts in ours, they do not appreciate
the modesty and self-restrain we practice
in not saying a thousand fold more, in ex-
pressing all we believe, all we know of
the glorious destiny. to which we are
courageously marching and which is now
so plainly in view. Again we LAY, let us
not put on airs, for modesty NOT only be.
comes woman, pure and simple, hut is
most becoming in the Peerless Princess.
Our greatness which is now overtaking us
with giant strides is not bestowed upon us
by the favors of railroads. Nor do We owe
1t to that great rival of the mighty Mis-
souri, river, the majestic Arkansas, big or
little; nor yet do we owe it to legislation,
nor TO state aid or patronage. But we owe
it to our matchless climate, and unex-
celled soil, our labor. our brains, ourselves
and under the favor Of beneficent
Providence we who have Travelled far, and
fought hard and still kept step, never
deviated to the right nor left. are march
ing into the fortress, the impregnabie
position, to occupy which is our right and
to preserve which is our destiny Let us
moderate our joy and let US not put Oh
airs

Passengers on the north-bound train
Tuesday evening, relate peculiar incident
which happened at Orlando. The train
was Just pulling out when man on a
horse was noticed riding toward the train
at full speed. BY the time he had arrived
within few feet of the train ii was going
at good speed The man wheeled his
horse and ran with the train. He spurred
his horse on and caught at the door of the
express car as if trying to swing in. At
about this juncture, the horse stumbled
and the man went down. The express
messenger, thinking robber was after
him. went to the door and commenced
shooting ut the horseman but did not hit
him Before the horse could recover from
his fall the train was out of reach. No
one knows what the man was after.
Guthrie News: Some time ago man
wrote to Secretary Hoke Smith suggesting
that as many of the settlers in making the
run would get on reserved or allotted
lands. and thus probably lose their chance
to get a claim, the department rule that

served section and allotment 20 flag off

was a good one and would be referred to

A GREAT EVENT.
A GREAT EVENT.
FIVE DAYS OF SOLID FUN AND
ENJOYMENT.
The Wichita Fair the Theme Of Every
Tongus-A Great Show Conf
IDENTIFY Expected.

If the attendance at the fair will be in
proportion to the public interest manifes-
ted in it the association will be highly re-
warded for the enterprise which they have
shown in arranging what promises to be
the greatest fair ever held in the state.
Even now the fair ground presents a
busy scene with horses spinning about the
track with apparently the speed of the
wind and men rushing to and fro cleaning
up aud putting everything in shape for
the opening day. Four privileges were
sold yesterday and for the others there is
a great demand. The association prefers
letting these privileges to Wichita people,
but they will not discriminate against
outsiders and the motto now is First come,
first served"
Too much cannot be said about the
races. The field of horses entered is the
finest that has ever been seen in this sec
ton of country. Many of them have
gained fame this year already on the race
tracks OF eastern states, and as the stakes
offered here are better than are usually
offered a: a county or district fair. some
exciting scenes on the track can be looked
Tor. The public should not fail to remem-
Der that this is going to be a popular fair,
at which they can enjoy themselves unre-
strained in a hundred different ways It
viii be A grand reunion for the people of
the southwest.

Lynus Curtis, several years ago. sold the
land to the Hutchinson Salt aud Stock
Yards company, and accepted as part pay
ment a s.. 900 mortgage. That mortgage
is past due and it has not been paid and
besides that the mortgages have failed to
pay the taxes, SO that tax deed will be
issued on the property this month unless
the action begun to prohibit the county

cessful. Curtis claims they take that step
