BANK OF TROY CLOSED.
DepOsitors Drew Out Nearly All the
Available Cash.

TROY. N. Y, Sept. 19.-The National
Bank of Troy closed its doors to-day and
placed it's affairs in the hands of the ma
tional bank examiner. The closing of the
bank was due to the fact that depositors
withdrew nearly $4,000 yesterday, exhaust
ing all the available cash. The other banks
here refused to furnish any assistance and
effort TO secure money in New York was
also unsuccessful. The president of the
bank Daniel Clock. jr.. stated that the
affairs of the bank were never in better
condition since 1898, but they were unable
TO realize cash on their paper. Every de-
positor he said would be paid in full and
the stockholders would certainly receive IS
per cent. The capital stock is $3.50, 600 and
the deposits amount TO $3.50 eco

Tennessee's "Twin Stars. -

There may be special reasons
when it is incumbent on two pub
lie speakers TO treat each other
gracefully and such duty is per-
formed at times with rare felicity.
Such was the case few years ago
when Ex-Governor Bob Taylor
and Hon. Alf. Taylor stumped the
state of Tennessee against each
other as the nominees of the Dem
ocratic and Republican parties for
governor of the state. They are
brothers, but this fact did not pre-.
vent them from making political
war against each other throughout
their state in joint debate.
In that memorable campaign
when they met at Chattanooga they
stopped at the same hotel and oc-
cupied the same apartments. After
supper a band appeared and sere-
naded them. Then the crowd
loudly called for calf Taylorl"
"Bob Taylorl'' Taylor Brothers."
Together they came out on the
balcony. ALI Taylor, the Repub-
lican, spoke first. In feeling tones
he thanked them for the compli-
ment, and wound up by taking his
brother by the arm as he said:
"And now, fellow citizens, | have
the pleasure of introducing to you
the brother of the next governor of
Tennessee. Bob Taylor thanked
them for his half of the serenade,
inviting them all to the inaugura
tion ball at Nashville when he
should be installed az governor,
and where, said he, you will again
meet my distinguished brother, sit
ting at my right hand. the chief
and honored guest of that oc-
casion."
These two unique characters are
now touring the country in a most
novel entertainment entitled
yankee Doodle and Dixie. F"
They have been secured for an en-
gagement in this city and will ap-
pear at the court house on the 9Th
day of March. Their entertain
ment il something new in the the
atrical world and they will no
doubt nave large audience. Ac-
companying them is a superb male
quariette in which the ex- governor
sings second tenor.

u. s. LAND SURVEY
In the Indian Territory Has Made Good
Progress During the Winter.

Ths Gazette man called on Mr.,
c. II. Fitch, ,topographer in charge
of the United States land survey
in the Indian Territory, who kind.
ly went over the maps and gave a
full outline of the work being done.
Mr.. Fitch stated that the best
work had been done during the
winter season. The rains interfered
last summer, but this winter it has
been cold enough to make the men
active and industrious. There are
in all the neighborhood of 200 men
at work on the survey.
There are six parties engaged in
running exterior lines, and tour in
running subdivision lines.
The following are the names of
the gentlemen in charge ofthe par
ties running exterior lines, also
the points where they are at work:
Mr.. Mccoy, west of Muskogee; Mr..
Gordon, near Muskogee; Mr. Ahern,
near Red river; Mr.. Peters north
east of Wagner; Mr.. Farmer, near
Okmulgee; Mr.. Lindsey, east of
Sac and Fox Agency. The parties
running the subdivision lines are
Messrs. Manning, Harrison, Corse
Urquhart.
Township, section and quarter
section lines are being run. There
will be no sixteenth section lines
made.
The following is a boundary of
land surveyed so far: Beginning
at point 16 ranges east, and run
ming due north. approximately
through the town of Hartshorne,
thence to point in the vicinity of
Checotah to the northern line of
township II north; thence east 4
ranges to point in the vicinity of
Webbers Falls; thence north 4
townships to a point about ten
miles northeast OF Tahlequah:
thence west along the north line of
township 16 to the Oklahoma line.
The work commenced last April
and 1t will require about two years
after the Both of June to complete
it with the present force. 1t is
likely that congress will make
liberal appropriation and en-
able the work to be dispatched
more rapidly.-South McAlester

TIE intolerant utterances oi
some Of the Tahlequah papers in
recent issues would indicate a
greatly disturbed condition OF
mind and heart in the writers.
The abuse these so-called Indians
are trying to heap on the heads of
citizens who differ from them on
questions that concern all the
Cherokee people alike, should 60
a long way in convincing congress
of the true state of affairs in this
country. These utterances as a
rule come from men who have no
visible means of support save the
public teat. and they are protest
ing against the possibility of hay-
ing to let go. The editor of this
paper has as much right to his
views as has any other citizen of
the Cherokee nation, and the
malevolent and cowardly assaults
made upon THE CHIEFTAIN from
time to time show the desperation
to which they are driven. The
editor of this paper is Cherokee
citizen whose rights have never
been disputed and he has adYocat-
ed no measure in the five years
that he has occupied the position
as editor of the INDIAN CHIEETA1N
that he did not believe was for the
best interests of the whole
Cherokee people. If the paper
has a larger circulation and
is more generally read than
other papers in the country
the fact is solely due to merit. The
CHIEFTAIN is not only the best To-
cal newspaper in the Cherokee
nation, but it also stands for some
thing editorially and will not stul-
tify itself by contending against
the inevitable.
