FACT OF HISTORY BRIEFLY TOLI Reunion Visitors In September Wit Be Surprised and Entertained By Historic Surroundings of the City. Tulsa, Okla., Aug.?In view of th< , fact that people all over the south ar? beginning to talk about Tulsa, and th? Confederate reunion, it is not surpria ing that interest is attached to the name and that people of an investig&t Ing turn of mind should make inquiriet about it. Some years ago Dr. Fred S. Clintoi niihlishpH n nonn this snhifiO and a copy of it has been preserved in the public library. From this pam phlet it apears that the word "Tulsa* is not descriptive of man or beast. I: means nothing in itself. It is simpl3 the name of a former clan of th? Creek Indians. Dr. Clinton says: "Anciently, clans, or secret societies existed among the Creek Indians out | of which, in the march of progress, 8 constitutional form of government wa*1 framed, and these clans sent their rep ' resentatives to the councils of th? Creeks. There was a time when this, oligarchic government wa? verj j strongly established among thi Creeks, or Muscogees, because th | members of the clans were not allow- j on/? vanrfleflnfoflvfil cu lu iiiici uiaxi j auu x^yji vouutubi ? v? were hereditary. One of these clana was known by the name of Tulsa, and In this manner the settlement took ita ame." The first settler within the present i limits of the city of Tulsa was Archie Yahola, a fullblooded Creek Indian. , He was a man of fine physique and possessed a superior mind. He came here from Georgia in 1836. and was selected town chief of the Tulsa Lochapokas. His followers idolized him, and when he died, in 1850, he was Muriel in fho snnthprn narf r>f thp rifv near the ampitbeatre erected by tbe tfan for the practive of their religious | rites. Tulsa's growth has been very rapid' af recent years. It is now a modern 2ity with an estimated population of 30,000. It has bank deposits of $53,000,000, with total resources of 560,000,000. The monthly bank clearings are approximately $50,000,000. rhe greater part of this wealth comes from the oil industry, total daily shipments of oil from the city being 300,)00 barrels.'

See Monument To Irving Who Visited the Spot in 1832. Tulsa, Okla., August?In the early thirties, the renowned Washington Irving came over from England and made a tour of parts of the United States. His tour to the southwest included a stop among the Indians at the present location of the city of Tulsa. Local history has it that he paused on an eminence aooui a mue aurmwwi. of the center of the present business district of Tulsa, and took a comprehensive view of the valley of the Arkansas spread cut before him. The following description of the landscape, and prophecy of the future wealth of the community, appears in his sketches of the American tour: " i nis seems 10 me to ue mc jrxwu*ised Land, flowing with milk and honey. On the rich herbage of the prairies will be fed herds of cattle as innumerable as the sands upon the seashore. And the flowers that bedeck the prairies will be a paradise for a nectar-loving being." This was written October 13, 1332, about the time of year that the 28th ' annual reunion of the Confederate Veterans' Association will be held this year at Tulsa. The dates of the reunion are September .24-27 inclusive, or some ten days earlier in the fall *1 irr'h?/?h TTTHtI V txid.il LUC UdLCb upuu nu.v^u m t?MO wrote his appreciation of the valley of the Arkansas. Visitors to the reunion will have an opportunity to enjoy the same river panorama, made more beautiful and promising by modern enterprise and a city of 80,000 people. The greatest agricultural coition nf nviflhoma is alone: the Ar kansas, above and below the city of Tulsa, a land ndw flowing with milk and hcney, fulfilling the Irving prophecy if not discounting it. One of the- beauty spots around Tulsa is Irving Circle, on the crest of a ridge north of the city now beautitified by handsome residences. A monument has ben erected there commemorating the visit and prophecy of Washington Irving made more than eighty years ago. The idea "was originated and carried out by W. Tate Brady, chairman of the General Committee of the Confederate reunion organization. In the meantime, the prophecy of the great English writer has been, discounted many times. The comparatively ancient settlements of the Indians around Tulsa and throughout the state are full of interest. The footprints of the Indian have been obliterated by the march of modern progress, but his name ling ers. Where he formerly had his tented villages, or wigwam abodes, cities have been built and towns laid out. His hunting grounds on the Arkansas have been converted into rich and productive farms. Alfalfa has taken the place of prairie grass, and domestic cattle graze in former haunts of the wild beast. All over Oklahoma prosperous towns and cities have been built. They are laid cut along modern lines of city building, and their people are enternTvciricr and natrfotifi. Tulsa holds first place among Oklahoma cities for enterprise and progress. The city has grown more in the past ten years than any other city in the great southwest. It is amply able to care for a lirge number of visitors, such as attend the annual reunions of the Confederate soldiers. Had it not possessed all of the facilities for caring for the reunion, the Confederates would not have been urged to come here with their 1918 meeting. All who come to the reunion will be cared for in most satisfactory manner. U. C. V.
