5RADLEYiSM LARGELY
RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS

Inquiries are still being made for
residences in Durango. and people are
constantly leaving town after having
come here TO settle on account of theil
| inability to secure houses to live in.
A family left few days ago for that
reason. and man came into The Her
aid office yesterday seeking informa-
tion regarding a residence. Very little
could be given him on that subject
and he went away to join the throng of
vain searchers that are daily swelling
the number that have left Durango
because they could find no place to
live. There are also families living in
hotels and kept here by business in
terests, who would gladly build a
home for themselves were 1t not TO
the excuse that taxees are so high So
the trouble in Durango seems to be not
wholly lack of individual energy and
enterprise, but an eXorbitant rate of
taxation which no one wants to pay
Durango is thwarting her own inter
psts. and keeping the population down
to the 5000 mark when it might in a
few months, rise to 10000 or more.
ItDple lre coming INTO tnlS SecUOn
every day. or writing with a view to
locating here. 1t is an attractive spot
to those who are seeking homes in
Colorado. and If the city could offer
Inducements to her citizens to build,
instead of thwarting them in such
purpose. Durango would at once make
big strides towards becoming the third
city in the state. The outcome of
low rate of taxation would be a sufli-
cient number of houses for people to
live in. decrease in rents, a greater
population for the city, increased busi-
ness interests, and consequently
richer city than exists now on high
rate of taxation. without extending
the limits of the town at all, there is
room for several new houses, and
plenty more room in the suburbs. AS
the residences creep toward the out
skirts the business section would also
enlarge, with the inevitable result that
Durango would become in very snort
time the large city that nature and
providence meant her to be by her sit
lation and resources.

A "BUMPER" GRAIN CROP.
Largest Yield in Many Years Is Look,

Largest Yield in Many Years Is Looked
For in the Northwest.
A bumper" grain crop for the four
great States of the Northwest which are
traversed by the lines of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and ST. Paul Railroad is the
prophecy of A. j. Earling, president of
the company. Mr.. Earling, together with
several of the executive officials of the
company, recently completed an inspee-
ton tour of the entire St. Paul system.
The trip was taken largely with a view
of ascertaning the crop conditions, and
the president and his party have return
ed to Chicago enthusiastic over the pros
poets.
Never before IN my connection with
the St. Paul road" said Mr.. Earring.
''have l seeH the Northwest so big with
promise of abundant grain crops l speak,
of course, for those portions of the
States of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa
and South Dakota which are trayersed
by our lines. and / understand that. a
similar condition prevails over the en-
tire Northwest In South Dakota the
acreage is somewhat larger than in for
mer years, while in the other States it is
about the same. Unless something TN
foreseen happens between now and har-
vest time, ] believe crop records will be
broken in the territory which l have
named"
Based upon the present crop conditions,
the ST. Paul officials are looking forward
to a material increase In the earnings of
the company, and are correspondingly
well pleased Everywhere over the sys-
tenn. it was stated. the farmers are in
good humor, and are talking of big crops
and increased prosperity
