nesses, and 1t is stated that 1t will re-
quire three weeks to get the entire
case before the grand jury.
John Cruickshank. passenger agent
of The Salt Lake railroad, today fur
nished the jury transcripts OF sales
and stubs Of tickets sold by his COM
pany, These bore directly on the tale
told by McManlgal, and corroborated
in part, 1t is said, his story of his
trips to this section.
The government agent in charge OF
the probe was still undecided when
the grand jury recessed whether he
would try to force John ]. Mcnamara
or his brother to talk. He knows
perfectly we'll, as was stated by the
United Press on Wednesday, that
their testimony would not be COM
petent, but he would like to place
them on record, and take chance of
them making admissions IL they we're
forced to answer questions before the
grand jury 1t was expected the mat
ter would be settled one way or the
other before the grand jury ad-
journed this afternoon.
Expect Another Confession.
Meanwhile rumors of another SEN
sational confession are in circulation.
The report is that well-known labor
leader is being importuned by his
relatives to tell all that he knows
under promise of immunity by the
government The special agent hopes
that this Individual will come
through" and is bending every ef-
fort to have his relatives show him
that his FIRST duty is to his family

One day a woman was shop
ping in Liberal and found, af-
ter making a purchase, that she
lacked ten cents of having enough
to pay for the article. The clerk,
who has no small amount of inter-
est in human nature, decided to
try an experiment, and offered to
loan the buyer the required
amount. The loan was hesitating-
ly accepted and the lady took her
goods and left the store. After
several weeks had passed, the
clerk decided that the account had
been forgotten and was consider
ably surprised on the street, Sat
urday, when the lady encountered
her on the street and without say
ing a word slipped up and handed
her the ten cents. 1t isn't such a
bad old world after all.

There's No Place Like Home

A keen observer Of business con-
ditions is authority for the state
ment that nearly every moderate
sized town and yillageFh the CEN
trail states actually needs houses to
quarter its people. The boom in
far distant land schemes, now on
the wane, has taken money away
from home, the westerner invest
ing in the East and the easterner
in the West. There is a lure about
things distant that the average
man finds it hard to resist. DIS
lance lends enchantment." eSpe-
cially when properly played up by
the skilful advertising writer
working for an ingenious land
promoter.
No one can deny the wisdom of
land investments when the invest
or buys land for a home for cul-
tivatlon and actual development.
But much of the money placed in
circulation by land schemes dur
ing the last two or three years,
has gone into property which the
buyer knew nothing about beyond
what he read in a prospectus. This
sort Of investment" as rule is
gone forever and the experience is
expensive.
Now that the CRATER has harvest
ed his crop it is time for every
community to get back to first
principles, to develop the home
place, to build houses and i'm
prove the farms and promote the
welfare of the home community.
To do all this there will be no
better time than the present.
Money invested in home can not
get away. Put into farm improve
ments it will return dividends.
Truly, there's no place like
home" when it comes to laying by
safely the savings that are to pro-
vide for rainy day, Every move
that tends to make the home com
munity better is move in the
right direction.
