DAVE NOT AFRAID OF THE
INVESTIGATION OF EVERGL AIDES

Says the Colorado Springs Tele-

J. X. McKinnie, r. p. Davie, and
their associates VINO are dealing on
an extensive scale in the FLORIDA
Everglades lands, have no fear of an
investigation by the federal authors
ues for the reason that they have
made ample provision Tor the dram
ing of their lands by means OF.
drainage fund which now amounts
to over $4,000. An explanation OF
the situation in regard to the Ever
siades was gwen by Mr.. DAVE TO-DAY.
So far as We are concerned we
have nothing to fear from federal
PIE provision Tor the drainage of our
ianas ana nave drainage fund of
over $50, 900 on hand. In all these
Eyerglaue lands, IN addition to the
nam canals provided by the state,
lateral bitches are needed at a dis
lance of about quarter of a mile
aEart. we are putting these in as
rapidly as necessary and have a spe-
cial fund set apart for this expense.
NiLh these laterals the land is all
that is claimed for it, ana / believe
that the trouble that has arisen in
connection with some of the lands
viii be smoothed out without much
difficulty. In some cases il may be
that sufficient provision has not been
made for lateral drainage, but this,
ought to be arranged without mate
rial hardship on anybody"
