HER FIFTH MILE POST.

Five years ago this day the rush was
made upon original Oklahoma That
is, the legitimate run, the race which
began at high noon, central standard
time on the 29d of April, 1889, and not
the march of the sooner brigade which
looted townsites and Tapped up the
cream of Oklahoma claims.
What a change since then! Some
commercial Cadmus must have sown
the teeth of golden dragons, for from
the sun kissed slopes where daisies
slept many n commercial metropolis
has sprung. Fields lying fallow for
centuries have begun to fulfill Gods 5
destiny, and from the chaos of un-
kelhpt barbarism civilization has been
born.
Even the "oldest inhabitant" mar
vels in retrospection, and looks fur-
lively about for the welcome Aladdin
whose magician's touch has wrought
this wondrous change-has chiselled
in glory and grandeur the beauties
ana suOiimlty OF the Land OF the Far
God" The fruitful earth has been
wooed by an Italian sun to yield its
riches to the reaper, and the trade
marts of the world have been thrown
open TO receive them. On every hand is
heard the wheels of commerce, the
tread of industry and the steady march
of culture, refinement and education
Oklahoma is no experiment; she is a
fixed fact; her magic development is
a study for pastoral bard-an inpiration
for an artist Peans of steady growth
and prosp perity are waited on the clear
health giving arr as she pays her toll
and leaves behind her fifth mile post
in the turnpike lined with prosperous
states and territories.

THE FORT SILL COUNTRY.

Cattle barous feel that their fight is
won, since the introduction of bills in
congress for the releasing of the cat
tie lands in the Comanche, Apache and
Kiowa reservations. These bloated
barons have been strenuously opposing
the opening of those lands to settle
ment and but little attention has
been paid to this matter by the friends
OF the homeseekers, because il has
never until lately been considered pos
sible that the opening of the lands to
settlement at an early day could be de-
feated. The fact that there is now
danger that the opening of the reser-
walton will be defeated altogether and
that the leases of the cattle barons re-
newed, is another evidence of how a
weli-organised lobby can defeat the

Pluck in the race for success has
long since distanced luck. Enterprise
goes forward, with steady tread, and
reaches the goal, while timidly stands
covering before every adverse
wind. To appreciate what
pluck, energy and enter
prise has accomplished, visit to The
LEADER book bindery will disclose.
Starting not yet year ago, with no
plant, it has gone steadily forward,
and overcoming all obstacles it, to-day,
invites competition. There is, in the
cities, no more complete plant, or one
that does better or finer work 1t is u
Richmond in the field, who has come
to stay, and to conquer too, though an
hundred Richards may contend.
The findery is presided over by
foreman, who is an expert, and who
gives it his closest personal attention.
In THE LEADER plant an actual
working force of twenty-seven is kept
continually busy, and this force repre-
sents a weekly pay roll of S4O0. The
bindery is supplied with the most inn
proved machinery. and is capable, and
does ts:n out, as fine specimens of
work as any bindery in the United
States. One of the great points scored
by 1t, is that owing to its completeness
and the systematic clock work with
which it is carried On, it can afford to
bid as low as the lowest. The motto
of it's proprietors being to make liv-
ing profit from its patrons and not n
killing loss to them.
The field of operations of the bind
cry have continually increased, and it
not only bids for work IN Oklahoma
Territory land it always bids the
lowest too,) but its trade extends to
several of the Southern Kansas coun-
ties. The travelling representative,
Mr. ii. A. Platt, is on the road all the
while, and, owing TO strict business
methods, he has been more than sue
cessful. The enterprise is only
the nucleus of what its proprie-
tors intend making it. The
field is large one and they
intend covering it fully. Their enter
prise warrants them in hoping for the
best results. There is no reason for
St Louis and Kansas City houses
doing the work that home enterprise
can do just as well, and possibly bet
ter. The country is increasing every
day in. population and wealth, and the
demand must perforce keep pace with
the country's growth.
The LEADER bindery is ready to un-
dertake any character of work, and to
guarantee that cit will .da the work in
such a manner asr6ease the most
fastidious.

CIRCUS IN TOWN.

What bewiiderment of delights,
what'a wealth of anticipation the
magic word circus forctclls How it
has filled our days with, a sweet de-
lirum, how the great, staring posters
have stopped above our s,umbers and
rained their wonders in our creams
when we were tyros, all How, as we
grew into maturity and put childish
things far from us and faced the stern
realities of existence, some how we
could not part with the memories of
the sawdust ilag and the canvas won
derland had n fascination that caught
and held us still.
What a lot of queer people in town.
What an eager rowd fills the streets.
All! curiosity, curiosity the love of
strange sights and sounds, the wish
that things hidden may stand re-
vealed. 1t is an impulse that animates
us all 1t knows neither sex nor con.
dition 1t is found alike beneath
broadcloth or jeans it makes its home
under the marrowy folds of camels
hair as often as gingham frocks or the
rusty swish of bombGzine. And one is
prompted after all to cXclaim that at
all times and under all circum stances
humanity is pretty much the same.
We look with compose upon natures 5
prodigies. The Fat Woman exchanges
the compliments of the season with
the Walking Skeleton and the Wild
Man of Borueo INDUCES his usual
repartee with the Circassian beauty.
We MUNICH peanuts, divide with the
elephant. view the comforts OF the con.
tortionist, shuddcr at the lion tamer's
nerve, and voluntarily shrink from the
snake charmer in the snakes nosome
folds The clowns jokes have the
familiarity of old acquaintance and in
the melancholy crack of the ring mas
ters voice we recall the memorie. of
bygone days
But then, we love it all. From the
time when Noah first truthfully an
nounced that he had the only great
aggregation and mammoth consoli-
dated exhibition on earth, humanity
has willingly carried water to the ele.
phant or parted with its hard stuff to
get on the inside of circus tent.
Neither Interstate commerce laws nor
hard times can intervene 1t will con
tinue until eternity steps in and puts
stop to the show business. We get
sold but we rather like it We are
not disappointed in discovering that
the gold splendor of the chariots is
nothing but tinsel that the king OF
beasts with which the lion tanner SC
| fearlessly associates, is but toothless
harmless old fraud that the mermaid
is an optical delusion; that Ito hare
! backed fairies were old when we were
young, and that they drink and swear
with the gang hands, or that behind
the ludicrous daub that masks the
clowns face lis the squalor of q
wretched life. We are taken in, but
don't mind it. We drink of the parti
colored lemonade, get huncoed out OF
a dime to stay for the grand concert
just as we always have, and then &C
home with n consciousness of having
drank at the fountain of youth and
with kindly reverence in our mem
ory for the day when the circus came
to town.
