ing any rental price for the privil-

After the town burned down tile
company promulgated an order to the
effect that ''squatters' must move or
pay rent. Several householders
bought lots in the incorporated part
of the camp and moved their houses
off the company possessions Almost
anyone there can better afford to do
this than to pay rent. as lots sell only
fort$40 or $50, and the saving over
the monthly rental exaoted by the
company would soon pay for lot.
Most Of this company land is taxed
only for grazing land and $l2 per
