the Alamo hotel yesterday, "and from
the representations we have had from

GARDEN CITY, KANSAS, BOOSTS
KANSAS-COL RAILROAD

railway and power line at much less
cost to the citizens. This is busi-
ness proposition and I believe that 1
voice the feelings of almost every man
present here this evening"
Mr.. Anderson's remarks were re-
Enthusiastically applauded.
Many Desirable Features.
The local project is one In which a
number of wealthy citizens have be-
come interested, and for this reason
these men have not felt at liberty to
take up and boost a project that is,
in a way, similar. But the Kansas
Colorado proposition offers 20 many
desirable features that 1t IL becoming
popular and the more the citizens and
farmers learn about 1t the better they
like it. There will be no difficulty
in voting the necessary bonds east and
west, unless, as 1t has been suggested,
the people living north become dis
gruntled and oppose the east and west
bonds, in the event the request for the
north line bonds is withdrawn in IA
vor of the local company.
A committee was appointed today
to investigate the situation and ascer-
tain the feeling of the citizens in re-
gard to the bond question. 1t is un-
derstood that some of the directors
of the Kansas Colorado company ex-
pressed themselves in favor of with
drawing their request for the north
line, or Scott City division bonds,
provided the county would grant the
bonds for the east and west line. But
here again rises the protests from
farmers living north OF Garden City
who want the electric power, and it is
feared that unless the north line OF
railway and transmission are assured
them they will oppose the action of
the road in favor of the east and west
line.
President Atwater and the direct
ors, accompanied by a number of Gar
den City business men, made an auto
trip to Scott City yesterday forenoon,
and it, is expected decision in the
matter will be reached after the Off
cials of the company confer with the
