THE NORTH SIDE LEADS.

Original entrymen on the Great
North Side tract have reason to con-
glatulate themselves every day on
being able to secure land here at
price of $50 90 per acre. Only last
week the State Land Board gave
permission to the Portneuf- Marsh
project to raise the price of their
land from $45 to $50 per acre.
About the same time Land around
Mountainhome in what is known "a
the Brady project was reduced sl5
per acre, but as the original price
Of that land was 500 per acre, II
will be seen that even with the re-
ductjon the sage brush land i'll that
section brings more than improved
farms can be bought for on this
tract.
1t must be admitted, however,
that the growth OF this tract has
not been what it should be when
the prices of land are compared, as
in none of the segregations men
toned can be found a more produc-
tive soil or more favorable condi-
tons. The limited growth of thi'
tract is plainly attributed to tho
unsettled condition Of the water
t question which has been paramount
e since the first season the tract wa
e opened, and the apparent uncon
;, cern Of the company in meeting tn
situation. However, as this ques
t ton has been thoroughly discussed
r bv the state land board, and the.
e have handed down Il decision up
: holding the demands Of the settler
a for the required amount OF Storag
water, we feel that the question {
'e water supply is practically settle
% and this should no longer dete
y settlers from investing here. W
.. look forward to the coming year
bring many new settlers On the tra'
and an increased development anon

laws the Senator in an interview al

"Our irrigation laws are out OF

Witness in Inquiry Instituted by Gov

Clever Plan to Deal in Pardons for
Those Who Could Pay
Many and sweeping charges thai
the New York state superintendent

some time in a profitable business

they had planned to effect the release
of Harry K Thaw and others, were

quiry committee.
The witness was William F. Clark.
former secretary of the committee
whose name was mentioned last week
in connection with an alleged attempt
to free Thaw from Matteawan hospi-
tai. DIR. John w. Russell, superin.
tendent of that institution, testified
that he was offered $4,000 by New
York lawyer named Anhut if he We uid
release Thaw, but that he refused he
money He said that Clark also h&<
approached him in Thaw's behalf.
Clark turned the tables by declar-
ing that Colonel Joseph F. Scott, SUI
perintendent of state prisons, and his
immediate underlings," including
DR.. Russell, were engaged in a con-
spiracy to involve Governor Sulzer,
$50 that they might be retained in of
flee and continue the profitable busi-
ness in pardons which they had car
ried on under Governor Dix"
Clark said that he learned of the
conspiracy" a month ago and inn
mediately informed Governor Sulzer
that he was in great danger"
Sends for Harry Thaw.
Governor Sulzer told me to go
ahead and investigate" Clark contin-
ued During my investigation I
learned that in the early part of De-
cember DR. Russell sent for Harry
Thaw and asked him if he would like
would like it first rate. DR.. Russell
said: You've been making mistakes
in the way you have proceeded Now
l will suggest a lawyer for you and
I'll guarantee you'll be out of this
place in a very short time"
Thaw acting on the advice of DR..
Russell, handed an agent of DR.. Rus
sell $25, 900.
Another "Touch" Planned.
"Dr. Russell was to release Thaw
during the latter part of December,
but getting $4,000 seemed to be so
easy he decided to make another
touch, but a further amount was not
forthcoming and Thaw was not liber-
ated. Dr. Russell told Thaw that he
could not be released for at least six
or eight months and handed back
$1,000 of the 5000"
Clark suggested that his story
could be verified by subpoenaing
Thaw, H. A. Hoffman of Poughkeep-
sic, who, he said, was "Thaw's agent, "
and by examining Thaw's bank ac-
counts.
"This fellow Thaw," volunteered
Clark, "has been nothing more than
human meal ticket for these people
down there"

estimates that there are over a mil
lion consumptives in the United
State. Of whom probably at least one
third are unable to provide for them
selves the necessary treatment at

associates, and should be in special

ever, even If every ease were known,
it would not be possible to provide ac-

hear about them but you might search
for them until doom's day and Won

have treated hundreds of thousands q,
drug-habit cases, including opium. NOR.

they have never see a ease where the
use of Coca-Cola has SO fastened itself
upon the individual as to constitute q
habit in the true sense OF the word. Al.
though millions of glasses Of Coca.Cola
are drunk every year. no Coca-Cola
fiends have ever made themselves Wis.
ible at the doors of the sanitariums for
the treatment OF drug habits.
The Coca-Cola habit is analogous tn
the beefsteak habit and to the straw.
berry habit and the ice cream habit
People drink Coca-Cola first because
they see 1t advertised and thereafter
because It tastes good and refreshes
their minds and bodies. They drink II
when they can get 1t and %contentedly
