Where the Money Goes.

An exchange asks: What becomes
OF the vast amount of money paid
out by the fraternals-more than
$50, 900, 900 each year? Does 1t go
into the hands OF those who are al
ready rich? Does it go to form great
combinations OF capital which con-
duct business on such a stupendous
Vcale?-the banker, the broker? To
this the Washington Odd Fellow re-
plies: "No it goes to buy meat and
bread. 1t goes to pay house rent or
lift the mortgage from happy but
humble homes It goes to purchase
bright smiles, happy faces and light
hearts. It goes to tighten the bur
den of the worn and weary 1t goes

How will we proceed to extend the
plant and increase its capacity in
case the city buys it? Where will
we get the necessary means for such
extension?
These and other similar questions
present themselves in connection
with the water problem. 1t will not
be wise to act hastily in so grave a
matter. II will not do for the coun-
ell to rush hcadlong into a purchase
for the city of plant which is known
to be incapable Of supplying present
needs The council has no such in
tentions. The members are studying
the question in all its phases What
conclusions will be reached and what
action taken is yet undetermined,
But one phase OF the problem is set
tied in the minds OF alive must

handle Excursion

One fare for the round trip is the
lowest rate which the Fort Worth
and Denver road will give for the
Panhandle Day excursion to the Dali
las fair and to make this rate secure
the Chamber Of Commerce here must
get guarantee list of 200. The
amount Of the fare for the trip will
be Sl1.lO. This is for the trip
through without change of cars from
Amarillo to Dallas. The trains will
.leaye. Amarillo at one minute past
midnight on the night of Friday,
Oct. 90. The start for the return
will be made at approximately 1859
p, m, on Monday oct 2S.
Cannot Grant Low Rate.
1t had been expected by the great
majority of those who intended to
go on the excursion to Dallas that
the rate would be made at figure
near the minimum OF So and more
conservative estimates placed the
probable rate at 81 or $3.50. Ar
rangements already made, however
BY the Denver management inter
tere with the granting of such rate
on October 2S, so the wishes of the
Upper Panhandle must give way in
the matter OF price at least to the
plans of the Denver The rate given
OF $11.1O is $2.l0 lower than the
regular fair rate for an extended stay
IN Dallas Under the circumstances
this rate is said to he the best that
the road can do but it is generally
regarded as grudging concession
and the general public is not likely
to consider that it is obliged to the
Denver for favors in the matter.

What the church wants is the best
possible establishment for the col
