ARGUMENTS ON THE RAILROAD
DISTRICT LAW IN SUPREME
COURT.
Assistant Attorney General of Idaho
Says Law Was Not Legally
Passed and Is An Evasion of the
State Constitution.

Suggesting that the railroad dis
triet' law was never legally enacted
by the Tenth legislature that il was
superseded by the good roads Law

purpose of determining the validity

to relieve the monotony of rural
life. Although the weather was

pretty maidens served punch to
all who were willing to exchange

Success in Kansas Land When Push and

Notice what Mr.. Harman has
done in Western Kansas in the
last twelve years. Mr.. Harmon
moved from Lincoln County Kan
sas to Trego and commenced his
occupation of farmir g and stock
raising twelve years ago His
asseStS at the time consisted of a
large family; one single team of
horses; 2 cows and 5000 of bar
rowed money With the money
he purchased 16O acres of land in
the Smoky Hill country and
went to work. The three virtues
of industry, frugality and econ
omy were his house hold Gods.
The best Hereford cattle in the
west were always to be found in
his herds He raised only the
best of everything including
hogs mules and grain and all
proved money makers. During
the past ; years his annual crop
of grain was never less than Is,
600 bushels. But busy and
prosperous man that he was, he
never let pass ar opportunity to
Boost Western Kansas Many
are the settlers all sturdy far
mers, brought there by his
EFFORTS. He also claims that any
young man with energy and
push will win his way to success
ON the fertile prairies of Trego
and Ness and other Western
counties. The future growth
and prosperity he claims, no
man can oxer- calculate. With
rich soil and bow prices, ile ad-
yises every young man that

newcomer must adopt himself to
