est people in the country. The belief
of whether such hotel would detract
from the trade of the hotels already
established in the city is absurd, in the
opinion of the men who are now study
ing the situation.
The tourists hotel that has been pro-
posed would be a different sort of
hotel altogether from commercial
houses. Tardy states that the building
of such a hotel here would bring to
the city class of persons with money,
some of whom would build fine homes
here and many of whom would invest
in different enterprises in this district
while their very presence would at
tract to the city additional people and
additional business of every Kind.
Tardy, in his statement to the press,
emphasizes the matter of cooperation.
He states that the time has come when
personal interests must be forgotten or
merged in the general interests of the
building of Douglas. He points out
that if. every business man in this city
should throw over his business and
spend his entire time in bringing new
people and new money into this Sec
ton he would eventually realize on his
efforts
Tardy states that Douglas has no
room for Knockers. He further urges
that the city administration be brought
