this land and all, that has been eS-

Of III. reclaimed land to be $50 per

$40 per acre: and OF the unreclaIm-
cd land $40 per acre. These are
only tho present values OF the land
and do not In anyway represent the
values OF these tracts when fully

To the above we wish to add the

do not believe that any competent

know that people are sometimes led

airy motives. to invest so heavily

when u neighboring community
proposes to take from us the

sources. which will benefit them
less than tho injury caused to us,
Wa feel that they need no assur-

such resistance will make their pro-
ject so expensive as to prevent It's
completion. With our community
awake to It's peril, there will be no

every citizen of this community.

Revival of Retail Trade
Is Noted in Kansas City
BY DICK SMITH.

KANSAS CITY. September 14.-Cool
weather has brought a marked revival
of retail trade to this section. This is
especially noticeable in clothing. There
is a marked demand for ready-made
dresses by women in this territory. and
it has resulted in plans for a fall fash
ion show to be held here by the Kansas
City Merchants Association.
The fuel problem in this section has
not been solved owing to the shortage
of cars to move coal from the mines.
Some mines have been forced to close
after a brief period of activity because
they were unable to move their product
to market. Others are operating on a
two or three day a week schedule The
car shortage is growing daily, the rail-
Hroads finding it impossible to repair
bad order cars as fast as they are taken
from service

Her eyes were sparkling when she
hung up.
"Good news, dad" she said. "T'll tell

Durand laughed brutally as he rose.
"Good news, Ell? Get all you can.
You'll need it. Take that from me. It's
straight. Your friends in trouble up to

and turned. Don't forget, Bromfield.

voice was like the crack of trainers

For once Bromfield did not jump

he said in irritation, flushing angrily.

vised Durand sourly.

there was a momentary pause. The
younger man spoke awkwardly. "You

"We'd like to know for sure whether
you're with us or with Durand," said
Whitford mildly. "Of course we know

MuldoOn was out Of the room and

bullet, too. 1t had struck a telephone

The question at issue was not wheth-
er Beatrice would break with her
fance, but in what way it should be
done. If her father found him guilty
of what Durand had said, he was to
dismiss him brusquely if not, Beatrice
wanted to disengage herself gently
and w:.h contrition
WGitford summoned Bromfield to his
Office where the personal equation
would be less pronounced. He put
