The World has been secretly laying
its plans for the past few weeks to as
certain if possible the intention of the
railroad authorities concerning the eX-
tention of this line. Until last Mon
dav the hunt has been 4 still one. .
and now we are enabled to present a
few facts to our readers, which will
probably enlighten them concerning
the further construction Of their road
further in the direction that the star of
empire takes its way.
\ World representative was favored
with an interview with one who we
have every reason to believe thorough
" posted, and in answer to aquestion,
stated that in January the material for
extension would be shipped to Oberlin.
and the first town west would be local
ed eight miles from here, on the Doty
place. The line is to run through the
southeast portion of Rawlins county,
and the northwestern part of Thomas,
through Sherman and tap the h. p.
some place in Colorado. The termi-
nus of this road is ut best only tenn
porary benefit and the construction of
this road will prove of immense value
to Oberlin, giving it direct market to
Denver Oh the west. The party from
whom we gained the above information
has seen the contracts entered into
and bases his knowledge from the
written obligations of the contractors
and the railroad company.--Oberlin

Last Monday, county Treasurer Brooks sold
s.. sections fschool land: Tuesday sections;
Wednesday sections and Thursday 81 sec
tons; masking in all 1l,6.o acres. The prices
ranging from IS to S5.25 per acre. Be 1t said
to Mr.. Brooks credit that last night he had
finished making ont all the papers for the
above large sales; this is exrediting business
in good shape-Kenncth Democrat.
Brooks is getting raped midnight
plunderers also move with rapidity
Brooks used to make purchasers of
school land wait from two to six weeks
for their receipts. forcing q not overly
good personal receipt for the money.
He has been noted for his slowness in
business matters Why this alacrity?
Just little bit afraid of the Judges
order that Stevens secured and felo-
neously held on to for him. About
the only good thing you can say of
Brooks is that be was born of honest
parents.
Brooks made James Aud pay for
the same land twice by his blunder-
ings. James paid the s4S the first
time in the presence of witnesses,
Brooks refusing to make the receipts.
In few days Brooks called upon
James to pay it the second time. 1t
was Hcbsons choice with James pay
the second time or lose the land.
Brooks was SIS ahead This state
ment is stubborn fact. Altidavits
can now be secured for the asking.
Yes, Brooks is rapid. Just rapid
enough for his own pocket and little
too rapid to be honest.
