Right lately we have noticed a
number OF such items as this which
appeared in the last number of the
Lumberton Head Block: The Ed
wards Hines Yellow Pine Trustees
Mill at this place began operating
full capacity Monday night. Lum-
Der Is looking up, we are told by
those who keep posted, and this puts
the mills to running fill tilt and
should begin to scatter money
through the districts which have
run somewhat dry on that medium
Of circulation. This is the second
pickup on the lumber market and
its to be hoped will prove what it's
really desired to keep the saws a
cumming and wheels a turning and
folks at work earning the good old
currency of the land. LATER =
Since the above was penned for last
weeks paper, but carried over for
'ack of space, we learn that the lum-
Der market has sagged again, but
be that as it may, if the mills get TO
running and keep running and
distributing wage money among the
laborers it will help some despite
the depression otherwise.

Prentiss Head Light.

Edward Hines, the millionaire
lumberman of Chicago, is visiting
Mississippi and inspecting his large
land holdings in the southern part
OF the state, and he predicts that
the cut-over lands of the state will
some day be as valuable as were the
cut over lands of Wisconsin. Mr..
Hines saws that Mississippi has the
advantage of Wisconsin in that her
climate is milder.

WHY THERE'S AN
ass ARKALON CURVE

On every pound Of freight shipped
into the southwest over the Rock
Island, and on every passenger tick
Ct sold by the Rock Island to Liberal
Kansas, and beyond someone pays
freight or passenger tariff on an
extra six miles Of mileage that isn't
needed.
Whyf
Because some years ago, when the
Rock Island railway was built the
promoters wanted to cash in on town
ship bonds for four different town.
ships in Seward county and to do so
wound the railroad around like a
eorkscrew more or less, and mana
aged to run into all four townships
but added the meanest curve on the
system and an extra 8 miles of track,
This is the Arkalon curve, Just
across the Cimarron from Arkalon,
where the railroad joys back SOUTH
ward somewhat like correction line
jog of a section road only more so.
When the Rock Island was being
pushed southwest from Hutchinson
in the 'S0's on reaching Meade the
road curved westward and everybody
thought it was headed through,
southwestern Kansas into Baca coun-
ty, Colorado, and pushing toward
the New Mclean coal field.

county to the Indian Territory line.
At that time the best towns in Sc
ward county were Springfield and
Fargo Springs. four miles apart.
Springfield won the county seat and
was prosperous place, right in the
road of the new railroad then push
ing toward Springfield.
1t was supposed by all that the
Rock Island would build to the new
county seat. It was the natural place
to cross the Cimarron. South of
there the crossing was bad and it
would mean expensive construction.
But the people further south wanted
the road, the bonds were voted, the
awkward bend was made and Spring
field was left miles off the railroad.
The road hit the state lint at Lib
eral in a short time, in 1892 another
county seat election was held, Liber-
al was chosen and in less TIM three
hours after the election result was
announced the people of Springfield
were loading up on wagons and NOV
ing to Liberal.
And Springfield which might to-
day be both county seat and rail-
way division point is a dead city,
only some sunken places in the
ground indicating where once big
business buildings stood.
But there's that six mile jog to
stand as monument for the change
a six mile jog on which folks to this
day, thirty years later, are paying
extra freight charges and extra
passenger fares for six miles of track
that isn't needed, crimp in the road
that does no good.
