F AIR CONvEN TON
Held at Okmulgee Results in Com
plete Organization for the I'm
portant Work, and Much En-
thusiasm is aroused Amongst
The Attending Delegates.

4 The Worlds Fair Convention,
+ which was convened at 0kmulgee
6Tuesday, has adjourned after effect
ing complete organization for
the representation of the territory
at ST. Louis i'm 1903.
The proceedings of the conven-
tion were harmonious throughout
and great enthusiasm was aroused
amongst the delegates in attend
Dlnce.
y The position Of the territory
press association in the promotion
of the great work. which prevented
Several towns from being repre-
eented at ths convention, was am
icably assigned by the convention
without a discordant word.
The representatives OF the asso-
ciation were appointed a committee
.on publicity and promotion and
were invited by resolution to at
tend the meetings of the executive
committee and participate in their
deliberations. This will remove
the one obstacle to concerted &C.
tion, as several commercial clubs
declined TO attend the convention
through fear that il would inter
fefe with the press association,
which had taken the initiative in
the question of a territorial exhibit.
Mr.. Reeves, secretary Of the
Worlds Fair Committee on state
and territory exhibits, was in at.
3tendance as the personal represen-
|tative of Gov. Francis and offered
many valuable suggestions on the
plans for organization.
The plan as adopted provides
for an executive committee of six
teen members, consisting Of a
'ohairman and three representatives
from each of the five tribee. Gen.
Porter, of the Greek nation, was
unanimously elected chairman and
the chief executive Of each tribe
appointed a member of the tribal
committee. Prominent business
and professional men will be ap-
pointed to the other places on the
committees.
Among the towns represented
were Ardmore, Tishomingo, Coal
gate, South McAlestez, Holden
ville, Wotumka, Wagonsr, Sapul-
pa and Muskogee.
BEFORE leaving for St. Louis, Sec
retary Reeves assured the dele
gates the earnest support Of the
Exposition managers, and express
ed himself as highly gratitied al
the interest manifested.

ARGENTINE WELSH.
A Colony of 1000 Souls Planted
ThirtY-fiYe Years AGO

The British Colonial office was re-
| Gently astonished to receive from the
| town of Chubut, in the Argentine Ic-
public, memorial signed by some 5000
| persons with Welsh names. asking
| what provisions the government would
| make ana what Inducements would be
offered for their migration. to South
Africa.
An examination of the matter show
ed that there was Il Welsh settlement
in Argentine supporting a hourishing
population of more than 1000 souls,
| and that this had resulted from a part
| of -conformists Welsh who had
emigrated to South America in 1850. The
settlement, il seems. occupies large
tract of land south of the Chubut val
ley. in the neighborhood of Lake COL
huape. This was divided into quarter
league lots, which We're given only to
Argentine citizens who had no free
grants. and many OF the Welsh colon
lists became naturalized in order to
take advantage of the rcgula ton.
Commodore Groolne. writing from
the Flora. at Montevideo. on July 4
last, reported that much damage had
been done by floods. but that the GOV
tlllHltNl Sttiiltu 10 nave DtniNeu very
generously. There has been Il large
and increasing influx of Argentines
and Italians in the last few years and
there had been good many marriages
between them and the Welsh. so he
should think that probably in a gener-
alton or SO the Welsh part of the COM
munity, as separate body, would
have almost disappeared. The trade
must be increasing greatly. he said,
though now not confined to the Welsh.
but largely in the hands of Argentines
and Italians lie had been told that
an average of four carts, drawn by six
horses, came down the valley daily,
loaded with wool from the COrdilleras,
u distance of over 400 miles An An
glican Clergyman named Davis had
asked him whether there was any
chance of the British government re-
curing settlers for South Africa after
the war, as he knew "Of some Welsh
families who would like to go there il
they We're given free passage" lie
gathered that these people had no cap-
ltal to start themselves with. ana We're
those who had done badly in Chubut.
lie thought that, considering that
with very few exceptions, all of the
Welsh who had gone out to Chubut
We're Of the poorest description. they
had done very we'll for themselves.
Many We're now I'm comfortable cir
cumstances and could afford to go
home and visit their country. One
workingman told him that he had late

to get news during the present war

There is much disappointment among
the Republicans Of Dunmore over the
governors action in vetoing the bill
providing that councilmen be elected
from wards of this borough. rather
than from the borough ut large, as
they are at present.
Nearly everyone is agreed that it
would be desirable to have councilmen
elected from the wards. and 1t is a.
change which in the nature of things
must come. The governor has decided
that the way chosen by the legislature
now in session is not the correct one
and the matter will have tn be started
