the matter Is that locality Jealousies are
becoming obliterated. A few years
ago It a Dallas man bought property

au enemy of Dallas, and a Monmouth

to these remarks by the wise move of

who have made purchase of Monmouth
real estate lately, as a good Investment
The tec is now broken, and Ellls,jWells

will do much to stop the Dallas-Inde
