This year will be one of the
most active of any previous year
in the state, especially on this
side of the Missouri river. That
this section will be favored with
several new lines of railroad there
can be no longer any doubt, as
surveyors are busily engaged in
stalking out the routes overwhich
the lines will run. These roads
will attract attention and draw
settlement. The crops last year
were excellent and farmers are
in good financial circumstances
and will farm this year as never
before. If we should have rail
roads and a bumper crop this
county will prosper and become

In 1901 the abandoned Fort

counties, was auctioned off by the
government and was purchased
by Hon. Judson H. Harmon, for
merly attorney general in Cleve-
lands cabinet, L. G. Black and G..
A. Bosworth, prominent Ohio
politicians. An investigation of
the deal was ordered February17
1902, owing to circumstances
brought to light which pointed
to peculiar conditions in connec-
tion with the purchase. As it is
understood there has been for
some time a dispute over the
commission in connection with
the sale, a lis pendens was filed
Fin Mclean county some ten
days ago and it is limited that
something of a sensational nature
is liable to come to light as the
investigation proceeds. The a.
mount of land sold was 45,58e
acres, less a 100 acre homestead
on the reservation. Is it possible
