going on with the idea of getting a
building for ourselves. There is moth
ing to say with reference to where we
intend to build because we have no
place upon which to put the building
But the committee is still at work on
the matter and intends to get a home
for the 7. NJ G. A. in this town if it is
possible.
After we have found a site and taken
steps towards getting possession of it,
then building boom will be started
in this town. The feeling towards the
association is very kindly, and 1 know
the idea would be popular. But so far
as our present plans are concerned
there is in reality nothing to say. All
of the members of the building COM
mittee are looking around for a place,
but nothing has been found. We will
have a meeting during the first week
in April to further consider the matter
and compare notes on our prospects,"
The members of the committee are
Harold T. Chase, chairman; Charles
Eldridge, ]. E. Nissley and Richard
Wilson.
The movement towards the securing
of home for the Y. NJ c. A. was
started at the first of the year at the
annual meeting of the board of dfrec-
tors of the association. 1t was decided
at that time to secure a building this
year if possible and a committee was
selected to look into the matter. The
organization has attained to such pro-
portions in membership and influence
that the directors felt confident that it
would be a safe venture for the as
sociation to build and possess it's own
home.
1t will be necessary for the associa-
ton to get a central location, to meet
the best interests of its work and
sphere of influence. Naturally it will
have to be close to heart of the bust
ness interests of the city. Now is the
time for US to buy in that district.

for a length of time in the hope of
getting a site for a cheaper price"

TO GET ROYALTIES.
Justice Pollock Says Farmers
Won't Have to Wait.

Federal Judge Pollock forwarded an
opinion Thursday afternoon to the Fort
Scott division of the court which is OF
great benefit to Kansas farmers in land
suits. The trouble all came up over
the declaration of oil spectators who
claimed that royalties on their
leases were not due until two years
after the delivery of contracts. Judge
Pollock ordered that the form of lease
used heretofore be changed so that
there would no longer be any doubt on
the subject, and that the royalties We're
due at the close of the first year. In
the opinion of the court 1t was stated
that the form of the lease is too adrOit-
ly drawn to be used on the farmers in
the oil district.
In his decision of yesterday Judge
Pollock in reality decided eleven cases,
for the owners of LIPS acres of land
were suing that many development
companies who had leased their land
to prospect for OIL The leases in all
instances We're alike, SO as to facilitate
matters the court threw them all to-
Sether and covered the point with one
decision.
The lease in question reads as fol-
lows: 1T is mutually agreed that this
company shall begin development on
the land herein described within one
year after the delivery of this lease.
In case work on the land has not COM
nenced during the year. the company
Will pay to the owner within one year
thereafter the sum of $50 for each
quarter section of land on which de-
Yelopment has not commenced"
The companies failed to. pay the 500
al the expiration of the first year from
the date of the delivery of the lease,
and the owners of the land COM
menced suit to compel them to comply
with their contracts. The attorneys
for the oil companies demurred declar-
ing that the $40 was not due until two
years after the delivery of the leases.
Judge Pollock turned down this de-
murrer and in this way formulated the
opinion that the royalties were due at
the expiration of the first twelve
months.

WHISKY TRUST SCORES.
Secures Favorable Ruling from
Supreme Court.

New York, March 25.-Upon allega-
tions that an action brought by Edwin
Blum of this city is similar to the Peter
Powell litigation against the Northern
Securities company several well known
capitalists interested in the Distilling
Company of America, known as the
whisky trust" have secured a favor
able ruling by Supreme Court Judge
Gildersleeve.
In his suit Blum charges that the pro-
motors of the distilling company, which
is capitalized at 1925. 600, 000 made large
profits out of the promotion at the ex-
pense of the company.
The defendants set up the plea that
Blum is merely a figurehead, being a
brokers' clerk, 81 years of age, and
moved that he should be examined be-
fore the trial to ascertain the real pro-
motors of the suit in order that the de-
PENDANTS might properly answer.
In the affidavits on which the order
for Blum's examination was asked, the
has more than an indirect interest in
the litigation MIR. Blur made applica-
ton to have the parts of these afidavits
referring to him stricken from the rec
ords on the ground that they were
scandalous.
Judge Gndersleeve refused this appli-
cation and now has denied Blum's mo-
| ton to vacate the order. No date was
| set for Blum's examination.
Those named in the suit are the late
