Tuesday April 27, we begin the sale
of the famous Tri-State land at SCOTS
Bluffs. Neb.. said to be the finest single
body of irrigated land in the United
States, embracing 10000 acres. of
which 10000 acres will be sold imme-
diately.
This land i, owned by the Tri-State
Land Company. of which f.. \. Cudahy
is president, and l. under the Great
Tri-State Canal, one Of the largest
systems of irrigation in the west, con
strleted at a cost of 50. 900, 900. Six
four horse teams, a horses, al stand
abreast across the bottom of the canal,
which for the first few miles is ninety
feet wide on the bottom. 1t Is half
apain As large as the immense govern
ment Pathfinder canal. Its headgates
dams. intakes, wasteways and drops
are wholly constructed of steel and re-
~inforced concrete. Its every part rep
resents the highest achievement of
modern engineering skill and work
manship.
The Tri-State Land Co. has practi-
callv the first water right out OF the
North platte river, and for an inn
mense amount of water. When it Is
also remembered that the South Platte

Speaking of Irrigated Land, Just
remember:
First-Irrigated land produces the
maximum every year. Your Eastern
Nebraska andW estern Iowa land never
produces the maximum, because even
if you got just enough rain at the
right time for n crop it would de
stroy part of another.

What Do You Think of This?

Now, the taxpayers OF the
State of Ohio ought to think this
over for moment. State Treas
urer Creamer, Democrat, received
bids for the deposite of the state
money from the banks of Ohio,
and by so doing he has gained to
the state the sum of $50, 900 90 per
year above the amount hereto
fore received in interest from the
banks for the use of this money.
Instead of placing the states
money in few favorite banks at
any rate of interest they were will
ing to pay, Mr.. Creamer threw
the matter open to the public
bidding system, and as result the
state will get the enormous sum
mentioned above, more than they
were getting for the use OF the
public money. All hail to Mr.
Creamer. The taxpayer that will!
not vote from him for a second
term ought to be ashamed of HIM
self as long rs he lives. He has
fulfilled the rarty pledge and his
pledge to the people of Ohio.

The Future of the Coal BuSi-
ness Of Ohio.

On Tuesday of this week great
meeting was held in New York
that will make or break the coal
business Of this Hooking Valley in
the future. Never in the history
of the Ohio coal trade has there
been as hard year for the Ohio
coal operators as WAS 1908, end
while Of course portion of this is
attributable to the financial panic
that came from 1907, yet much
more of it is due to the great rate
abuses that prompted the meeting
in the eastern Metropolis. That
the West Virginia mines are able
to place coal to the lake trade 1T
cheaper rate than the mines that
are hundreds Of miles closer, is
said to be u gross discrimination
In transportation. BY reason OF
these facts the southern sister
state has had the pleasure of run
ming her mines constantly and the
Ohio mines have been practically
idle for the past two years. For
q comparison We have compiled the
following: In the lake trade the
Eastern Ohio operators have a
rate of 5.4S mills per ton per mile
Pittsburg has a rate of 5 so mills
per ton per mile; the Hooking Val
ley has a rate Cf $50 mills per
ton per mile; Fairmont, W. Va.
has rate Of 05 mills per ton
per mile Kanawa operators pay
4.74 mills per ton per mile; New
River pays . % mills per ton per
mile to the lakes; Pocohantas has
q rate of . 43 mills per ton per
mile; Cabin Greek pays . 4 mills
per ton per mile; Boomer pays
8.03 mills per ton per mile; Island
Greek pays PIG mills per ton per
mile; Thscker pays . 55 mills per
ton per mile; Big Sandy pays 2.3l
mills per ton per mile; Merribone,
KY, pays l.9s mills per ton per
mile. If All these rates were
squalized tire Hooking Valley
would be paying 63 cents per ton
70 the lakes instead of the present
rate of SO cents. II is insisted up
ON at the conference in New York
that this is the reason that the
work is 80 slack IN Ohio and so
plentiful in West Virginia. The
operators claim that they cannot
compete with state south of US be-
cause of this great difference inl

Jim was seated at a table. By get

could catch their voices.

Wasn't I a credit to you in history?"
"You did beautifully" Stephen re-
piled. "But I had my doubts up to

Jim chuckled.
"You should have seen the judges

hand in his pocket and pulled out a

boy, "and get back to your problem"
The judge noiselessly descended
the ladder and with Henry Appleton's
assistance carried it behind the sta

Then the two men returned to the
porch.
There was prolonged silence.

strained voice.

Appleton. "He means to work his

And their hands met.
