ton, capitalized at $1,000, 600,
arrived in Little Rock today for
the purpose of organizing a local
branch having for its object the
fixing of the price Of cotton at
l5c per pound. His plan is to
have six men in each county buy
all the cotton in their counties at
lie per pound to be paid by draft
and interest bearing certificates
issued for the remaing &c. The
4c withheld will create a sinking
fund for the purchase Of surplus

Mr.. Wadley claims that the
acreage Of cotton must be in
creased and that the farmers
must hold their surplus cotton.
Texas and Georgia have already
been organized under the plan
and Arkansas comes next.

During the past two weeks
there have been many inquiries
come to this office and to other
firms in town, about Lubbock
and Lubbock county. They
come from people of different
avocations of life. From mer-
chants, professional men, farm
ers and mechanics. They have
been watching Lubbock for
some time. They have had it
in their minds to some day make
this great South Plains country
their home, either in town or
in the country. The absolutely
false report that has been going
the rounds that the Texico Cut
off would be built out of some
other South Plains town. held
many people off, who were not
acquainted with the situation,
but they have learned the truth
about the matter now and they
want to know more about this
town and the trade territory
around it.

Austin, Texas. June 10. The
Commissioner will soon have on
the market land equal in area
to the state of Deleware which
is to be sold at a minimum price
Of one dollar and fifty cents per

The law regulating the sale OF
this land gives a conception of
the large ideas our forefathers
had of immigration. The law
requires that one person cannot
purchase more than eight sec
tions which is almost equal in
area TO the state of Rhode
Island, and il seems that our
early lawmakers were salts

of one family to every 5l20

past few weeks on the strength
of this construction work, and
we learn of a number more who
will come here as members Of
the construction crew. All this
will mean much to the town.
While we do not expect our pop
ulation to double in three
months. and do not anticipate a
pay roll Of $500, 600 per month.
still there will be great activity
in Lubbock. and the building Of
this road will benefit Lubbock to
a great extent, though some
other south plains towns are
claiming all the benefits" of
the new road.
During the lapse of time since
there was any real railroad con-
struetion work in Lubbock, she
has pushed forward. She has
built a number Of the finest

crete sidewalk building of the
