The Site Of the Old Fort ldrah An
Historical Point.
LETTER FROM OLD-TIMER.
Great Bend, Kansas, Oct. 1, 1900.

GM s,oOopound can
non to mark the
site, and the cannon is now here
and ready to be located. The
site has been selected to locate it
on.
There are things to be decided
upon and done that should inter.
est any citizen who is interested
in preserving history.
There were two historical land
marks in Barton county that have
been almost destroyed, Fort
Zarah and Pawnee Rock. 1t is
our duty to mark the spot where
the old fort stood, and we should
do that in a way that we will be
proud of, that our children and
our children's children may know
that they live in a county that has
a history.
The committee has been to
some expense, and will be to
much more in mounting the his
torical field piece, and when you
are asked to contribute to the
fund consider it a duty and a pleas.
ure to do so. Merely mounting
the cannon on cement works, and
a cement wall around it, in a
patch of weeds, should not satisfy
the good people of this city and
county. As to what should be
done, and how we will do it, will
take too much space for our letter
this time. | will give my ideas
in a letter later.
| will give a brief history of
Fort Zarah, as | find it in History
and from earlier recollections.
| do so here, as there is a differ
ence of opinion as to when the
fort was located, and other points.
Anyone having any knowledge
on the subject should disclose it
now. as the committee wants all
the information it can get.
Fort Zarah was established
September 9Th, 1864, by General
Samuel R. Curtis, on the banks
of the Walnut, along the Santa
Fe wagon trail. 1t was named
in honor of his son, Major H.
Zarah Curtis who was killed at
the Baxter Springs massacre
while on the staff of General
Blunt October 9Th. 1863. The
fort was completed in 1867. II
was built of native sand stone,
quarried from the bluffs in the
neighborhood.
The outer walls we're about six.
teen inches thick. and the inner
walls one foot thick. The entire
length, east and west vas about
116 feet, with an average width
of so feet. II was divided into
seven rooms. Was two stories
high, excepting on the eastern
end. 1t had only one window
There were loopholes for mus
kerry.
The magazine was 20 feet from
the main building with which il
was connected by an under ground
passage. At the end was a walled
cellar eight feet deep. There
was also a guardhouse and other
buildings near the fort. As to
the cost Of the fort and what
eventually.became of it, l may
write more in the future. or leave
that for some one who is more
competent to do so than l am.
Respectfully,
Edwin TYLER.

THINKS COAL OIL WILL NOW
BE INSPECTED IN TERRITORY

From Albuquerque Journal.
Harold Hurd, of Roswell, recently
appointed deputy coal oil inspector
by Governor Hagerman, has been
making a trip through New Mexico,
looking over the situation and sizing
up the inspecting of oil which has
been done in the past. 1t has been
made evident that the Governor is
determined to have coal oil inspect
ed SO long as there is an inspection
law. Mr.. Hurd on his return to San
ia Fe is quoted as follows:
II am satisfied that from this time
on no more trouble will be experien-
ced, ant that as a result of the steps
taken by Governor Hagerman, every
thing will move along smoothly and
satisfactorily
"An complaints received by me, no
matter how trivial, were investigated
N in some cases l found III oil re-
sponsible for the trouble, while in
others it was the lamps, gasoline en-
gines. or whatever else in which the
Oil vas being used. All complaints
were adjusted to the satisfaction of
those concerned.
81 shall make a report to Governor
Hagerman regarding the status of
affairs as soon as he returns and rec
ommend to him applicants for the
positions of deputy coal oil inspec-
tor. While travelling over the Terri.
tory. l met a number of men whom
I think can fill the positions satisfac-
forily, and l will submit them to Gov
ernor Hagerman for his approval.
There has been compiled an ex-
tensive list of rules for the govern
ment of all deputies as well as for
the Oil corporations. and these will
be published and enforced in order
that the oil consumers of the Terri
tory may procure the grade of oil
which it is intended they should by
law"
