ana the WQOle CITY rs "t9ls ANS.A SoAHeA ~'1"~
business here and everywhere is still depressed,
and, in order to secure responsible tenants you
must be satisfied to let them make reasonable
profit on their capital and 1abors:
Chicago WAS recently compared, oy an 1nteill-
gent Frenchman, to a basin In the centre oi
vast and fertile region, into which All the
streams OF traffic and commerce naturally and
inevitably concentrated. Our landlords should
mt force it to the other centres By exorbltant
rentals. Even our sleepy ncighbor, st. Louis,
knows better than that. Her people would only
be too glad to profit by our mistakes. Let our
nroperty-owners be true to themselves and to
The city, and scores Of other Stewarts and Bur-
locks will be sure, at this favorable turn in
business affairs, to cast in their lot among us.
