we have no rents to pay, own our

every unnecessary expense, and sell
pianos as advertised each month, and
for that month only, at prices that

PLAN EXTENSION
OF CACHE VALLEY

Continued from page one)
make a recommendation with refer
ence to the movement to take up
a proposition to have the Cache
Valley railroad extended from
Light to ~Paragould, a distance of
seventeen miles. This curse was
decided upon at a mass meeting
held at the Chamber of Commerce
room last night.
1t was stated at the meeting that
arrangements had been made to Sc
cure ample capital to build the
road into Paragould provided the
people of this city and those resid-
ing along the proposed extension
would subscribe $4,000 stock
and donate the right of way and
terminal site in this city. 1t is
estimated it will require from $780,
900 to t~$175,000 to purchase the
present Cache Valley road running
ten miles from Sedgwick to Light,
rebuild at least three miles of the
track, place the roadbed and Gull
verts in good condition, construct
the seventeen mile extension into
Paragould with sidetracks and de-
pots along the route, and purchase
enough rolling stock to handle the
traffic.
Eastern capitalists who have be-
come interested in the project are
not going to invest their money in
the road unless the people who live
here show their faith in the pro-
: by taking some Of the stock.
They are not asking for donations,
but do want the substantial coop
Grafton of the citizenship.
The citizens of Piggott absolute
ly donated 100000 and the right
of way and terminal sites to get the
Butler county road from Poplar
Bluff to Piggott. Previous to this
they gave SIS, 900 to get a short
line from Kenneth. Neither of these
roads touches territory as rich as
that traversed by the Cache Valley.
he people of %Paragould can GER
tainly afford to subscribe for
$50, 1000 of the stock and secure the
right of way and terminal sites to
secure a railroad that opens to
Paragould a veritable ~storehouse
of wealth if the people of a much
smaller town can absolutely give
$4,000 to two short roads.
The Paragould delegation will
leave this city on Friday morning
at eight o'clock and will be met at
