Will Plata Town South Of

the latter partof this week with

homestead just south of the falls
which he has proved up on, and
will plat thereon a town to the
one already laid out on the
opposite side Of the river By the
TOWNSHIP company
On his side OF the river, the
south side, there is already quite

edback says there are num-
berof people who are only wait
ing for him to furnish lots before
they put up another hotel and
other business build ings,

people ace watching this point,
and the first move Of the NJ. 81 I.
to build beyond Blackjack will
start a boom in the sale of lots on
both sides Of the river. When
this move is made, Mr.. Swed-
