Many new families have moved in and they all speak of the place as “ the best I have ever lived in” no matter | whether they came from Majne, Illi- [ nois, Ohio, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, : or the much spoken of sunny Califor- nia. Dilley has two general merchan- | \ dise stores and a blacksmith shop and they are doing a fine business. What they lack, however, is a hotel, j And they need one bad. Formerly Mrs. Wolf ran a hostelry there and did | a good business but she moved to Cor nel us. Now when a person stops in | Dilley he has to purchase sardines and stuff from the store and eat a cold lunch when the place is plenty big enough I for a paying hotel if it is run upon the right kind of a basis. Here is a chance for someone to do Dilley a service and make some money himself. The people of Dilley are sociable and hospitable. They have good schools 1 1 and a couple of churches, the Metho dist and Free Methodist. The town is fortunate in having the depot right in the city instead of being built a mile ! or so away. And a beautiful vista of the country is had from the town. % • OREGON e ; ’* ! LAND Liner Column CO. Real Estate Brokers Loans and Insurance W. IN SERVICE 42 LONG MONTHS Our good friend, Mr. N. J.
