who remember HALEY when she was

around the residence blocks, of an
evening, and note the elegant lawns
and gardens to be seen everywhere.
And yet all this change from a sterile
gravel plain, without as much as a
fence pole or roof in sight has been
accomplished in about six years by
people who were poverty stricken
when they came here. If so much
has been done with so little, how
much will not be accomplished in the
next five years, now that we all have
such fair start in life? BY that
time HALEY will be the prettiest, as
we'll as most prosperous town in the

MR., Flowers CREDITORS.
They Will get Every Cent Due Them
Within Three Months.


Mr.. Flower, of the firm of Ander-
son & Flower, propristors of the
Dewey House, Shoshone, who was in
town a day or two ago. stated that
the schedule of assets and liabilities
fled with bis application in insolv-
ency did not show his financial con-
dition as clearly as he desired it,.
His total individual liabilities are
$500, and those of Anderson &
Flower are $3.50 more. As he is of
course liable for the whole of the
latter amount, his total liabilities may
be placed at not more than $265O.
To offset these he has over $500
worth of book, board, lodging and
bar accounts which he considers al
most as good as cash, besides $4,000
or SO that are not so good, and the
firm OF Anderson & Flower owes him
$1,000 for which the firms property,
including the Dewey House lots and
buildings, furniture, stock, linen,
carpets, crockery, chinaware, team,
wagon, ETC., can be held. and which
cost over $4,000. There is there.
fore no doubt but that every Que OF
his creditors will get every cent due
them. 1t is only matter OF two OF
three months, at furthest, after the
assignee shall have been appointed.
And it may not be that long, as he is
corresponding with a party who
wishes to purchase his interest in the
hotel, and the only difference be-
tween them is the amount Of cash to
be paid down.
Mr.. Flower says that man
fit for the business of keeping an
hotel would not have felt embarrassed
by his debts; but he has been in bust
ness all his life as consulting engi-
neer-a business wherein the tran.
sactions are cash or nearly so-and he
has felt like fish out of water ever
since he left it, and he wishes to get
back into it.
The Dewey House was a paying
property even when closed by Mr..
Flowers insolvency, as the books
and evidences of Indebtedness will
show that during the past two years
he has paid off over $500 of the debts
Of the firm, consequent upon build
ing, furnishing and conducting the
hotel with in sufficient capital.

we have decided, in order 10 prevent a

very large, notably borax properties, in
which we have heavy investments. This
borax property We value at ~ ,oo0, 900,
and have had until recently great hope Of
selling it. In fact, negotiations were in a
