dian land boom business had
been considerably over done in |
some parts of the country. The
believing dispatch from Black
Duck, Mimi, is only one of many
of the stories Of disappointment
experienced by those: who hope to
reap a fortune in the wilds of
Canada.
John Pasha, who was form
aefly in business in Thief Riv'
er Falls, and Peter Laso have
returned to Black Duck after an
extensive land seeking trip.
through Canada. In addition to
looking for lands they have
=songht out opportunities for bust
ness openings. In both respects,
however they have returned dis
appointed. Both state that they
found no business openingswhich
could compare with those in this
section, while the lands which
they were shown were poor in
deed in comparison with Mime
sofa lands. aj "a
In their efforts to induce settlers
to buy lands many Of the Cana
dian agents are thoroughly un-
,-scrupAous. While there is much
fine land in Canada, the work of
some Of these Canadian land,
sharks who board every train
and. interview every possible
land seeker, pressing with offers
of land and inducing him to stop
and look at lands far from the

along the railroads are poor, but
stSRiming that lands farther back
.5are exceptionally rich. Both
Mr.. Pacha and Mr.. Laso declare
that every train is bringing DacE
more land seekers than are nov
being taken into Canada, ant
! in their opinion the Canadian
land boom collapsing."
Vast fortunes have been mad,

been entirely speculative. Thos,

ness. and then tell US we. can take
these at such a price, or leave them
alone, but we can't get anything else,
we have got to take theirs.
Now people, we know that they
never can control this business if you
will j st not help them out in it, by
buying their goods. AS long as there
are brains as fertile as Americans
with plenty of machines to handle.
They will always be manufactured,
and just as good or better than trus.
machines.
But listen. Trusts generally, in or
der to bust up other concerns, fix a
l,rice lover, SO they can run them out,
but this trust is SO arrogant that they
think they can dominate the price and
make you pay higher than you did
for other goods, as good if not better.
For instance, we are handling the
Acme goods, which are the Hodge
and Craver headers, the Queen bin
der, the Harvester King combined
machine, the Hodge mower, and also
the Keystone, new improved binder,
which is an Improvement on the Nc
Cormick and the Deering and you
will say SO when you see it, and the
Keystone mower.
These machines are not in the trust,
and will be sold to you much cheaper
than you can buy the trust machine.
Isn't it funny. that the trusts thinks
they can compel you to buy their
goods at higher price than other old
line goods that are just as good as
theiTss
What presumption, and yet, are
yon gong to help them out?
Who manufactured the Acme
machiness A company composed OF
many independent stock holders who
do not belong to the trust, and have
as their general manager. the Me-
Cormick general manager, who used
to be at Wichita.
Who manufactures the Keystone

many Independent stockholders, who
are not in the trust, and who have at
their head. Mr.. Butler, who was the

TRUSTS.

Are you for them, or against them?
Kansas has, by her Legislature,
Enthusiastically given to the world her
indomitable war against trusts. Will
the people of Kansas stand by her
and show to the world that Kansas is
not afraid to stand up against that
which robs the people of their hard
earned dues? Other states are look
ing on, to see what we are going to
do, that they may follow in our wake.
Say friends, do you know that trusts
cannot exist if you do not patronize
them? Do you realize that we are
just keeping them up, and that law
can do nothing if we encourage them
to wipe out all competition by putting
down their prices, and then, when
they have driven out all competitors.
to put the price up, and you have to
pay it, whether you want to or not.
What fools we mortals are. We
preach one thing, and practice another
VIC diC Ola Al tt4C odiHC OOdts we
want to see these things wiped out,
and yet we keep them in existence by
our own efforts.
One of the largest, and most ex-
acting trusts that is now formed, is
the harvester trust. Not content with
forming the trust, by taking in the
following companies, viz, the Nc
Cormick, Deering, Champion. Plano
and Milwaukee, they have issued
bonds to three times the value of
these plants, and then tried to palm
them off on you people with this
added profit on them, and they now
seek to take in all other plants, just
SO far as they can get them into
trouble, and then buy them up for a
song. In this way they have taken in

What have the trusts done? Turn
ed off 800 men at one time, and
last year turned off all of their gen
eral agents throughout the county,
except very few. Why is it that
their men do not stick to. them?
This year their block men that were
in Great Bend last year, have quit
them. Their block men in Dodge
City have quit them, and some of
their travelling men that were here
last year quit them. They say they
cannot stand their ways of doing
business. 1t is iron clad, grinding,
wanting the last penny, and the most
hours of work.
We want your trade this year on
harvesting machines, because we can
save you money, give you as good. or
better goods than the trust can give
you, and give you competition, which
you demand, in order that you may
get right prices, and right goods.
Destroy that competition, and you

Organized Effort.

California has long been noted for
its energy in placing before the world
the advantages of its many resources
and matchless climate; but Tulare
County, one of the largest and most
productive counties in California,
leads in organized effort to exploit its
resources. In that county there are
numerous, prosperous and pro-
gressive towns. Each of these towns
maintains a local board of trade.
The various local boards of trade
form a central organization known as
the Tulare County Board of Trade.
This organization has nothing to sell
and is purely public institution.
Its object isao give specific and reli-
able information about Tulare county
and to assist those contemplating
making home in California to find
suitable locations. The advertise
menrof this organization will be found
in ourGolumns.
