STORY OF A
NEW EMPIRE

September 6 was memorable
day at the Worlds fair. The
day was celebrated in honor of
Oklahoma territory. The ora
tor of the day was Hon. Roy
Hoffman, and he hid honor to
the occasion and to himself.
We quote the following from
his address:
"It was but a little while ago
that the building of this new
commonwealth began. For
ages the territory now compris-
ling Oklahoma was known IN a
vague indefinite way as Indian
Territory. It frequently went
on the maps under such for
| bidding aliases as The Pan
handle.' No Mans Land, and

of civilization upon our eastern
coast, and fifty years after II

gan. II was a free-for-all wild
dash for homes-a multitude Of
speed medisys in one vast hip
podrome. There we're 100000
entries. The stampede was over
in q day. The sun in all his
course viii never look upon its
sight again. From city fac
tory, shop and field the living
tide rolled in. The mad swirl
of its waters contained the vital
essence of a nation. Artisans,
mechanics and various handi-
craftsmen, homeseekers and
homebuilders came. Most Won
derous was the transformation
wrought. The witchery Of genii
and Aladdm's sorcery outdone.
Cities of tents sprang up ike
the exhalation of a night. AS if
at the waving Of some magic
wand they changed to brick and
steel and stone, resounding with
the tread of throngs of busy
men. Thrift and enterprise
multiplied their manifestations
like seed of golden dragons
teeth. Other openings follow
ed as treaty technieahties were
satisfied. Texas gave a gener-
ous slice-in the court of last
resort. Our domains have
broadened with the process Of
the sums, while, in the short
space of fifteen years, beneath

cause the best is here, and you
cannot keep the people away
from the best, the Indian Terri
tory. As the country fills up
with new people, they will de-
mand new towns, they will /
compel old ones to grow larger.
That will increase business OF
every description in all the
towns--new and old. When
YOU consider that the different
railroads have formed and are
now forming a net OF tracks in

soon the whole territory will be
dotted with cities, towns, viii
