Pardon?
The OPs original post used .in both in the python code and the command
line. Doesn't look like a typo to me.

Tsk. That would be "chop". "chomp" would be

It's easy - and broken. Bad things happen if you're using something other
than '\n' for EOL.
Or if the last line of your file doesn't end
with a newline.

I didn't say it couldn't be done. I just like the Perl version better.

Two issues regarding script.
You have a typo on the file you are trying to open.
It is listed with a file extension of .in when it should be .ini .
The next issue is that you are comparing what was read from the file
versus the variable.
The item read from file also contains and end-of-line

because when you loop over open(...) is the same as looping over open

Try replace:

with
if item.strip() == var:

The problem is that the lines you are reading from the file have a
newline at the end so 'tree' != 'tree\n'. See below for suggested
changes.

Here is the code, test43.in, and runtime:

fname = open("test43.in")
var = 'tree'
for item in fname:
print "item: ", item,
It's the newline after each word that's messing you up.
var = "tree\n"

or

etc.

This will include the EOL character for each line.
Try adding the following line here:
item = item.s
