caused by the long sunshiny

wonderfully fertile hinds which
onti year with another produce
near'y na much no the lund of
Iowa and Illinois, und can be
bought for less than one-third
of what it U sold for in those
states. They hear about out
wonderful climate and iho hon-
piUble people, which alone is e
nough to bring ilia sturdy east

THEN NOT TKY TO INDUCE
THEM TO COME AND LIVE
AMONG US?
A representative of one of our
western chambers of commerce
give a series of lectures on thi

S anxious are they to secure re
liable informatim aboit thi
wrtnderful we.it. that they will
l're.t ) m my lhiu,rs to talk with
a p.rsm who has isited it.

the Ol Jtti'iiH Ui.lt exUU'd hell
ten or fifteen years iig i, wheii
nio.it of the people coming out
here came to locate on home
steads, and had little more thai,
their filing fees, therefore mak
ing it a necessity that they live
o;i about half rations, and those
Beared from the merchant who
was kind enough to extend them
a line of credit until they could
ha'-ve;t a good crop. Hc.se
kind of sett It rs, while they art

and eventual ,y become wtiHo

c nild ha ?e ci nu here with con
h'dcrable money, they would,
with tlu same application anu
push they applied when poor,
they would have made three
limes the amount they have ac
cumulated. To this extent they
have been tl.o losers.
But what lo v e find the con
ditions in tre east' to be? Name
ly, thousands of families who
are the owrers of a fine IGO-acre
ranch for w hich they could se
cure all the way from $75 to
$150 per ai re. Tneso same fam
ilies consist of grown up .sons
and daughters who are anxious
t) get a scart on a farm. But
can they do it? Most assuredly
not in the east, for tho reason
that the old homestend in their
locality if sold would not bring e
nough to start three sons prop
erly there. The result is that
they are looking for .cheapet
farm lands. Lands that are sel
ling from $15 to $33 per acre,
improved, and in order to find it
thc-y must come west; hencp. the
kerfrt desire for, information a
bout a fcountry in which they ex
pect to locate and 'eventually

enough revenue to pay for itself.

that has been i eeona.;eiH'ed as c

jusiness policy to kt your next
lo.ir CMnpetitor make a move to
ret the bulk of trade when you
tan secure your share by adupt
ng a polity which will bring it

jetting what justly belongs to it
when it does not do tin things
that will make it prosper beyond
the most sanguine expectations
of men.
What would you, ns men living
in, an enlightened country, think
fter knowing what it requires
to defeat a common enemy on
the high seas, if you learned that
the United States had sold all her
modern battlesh'ps and cruisers
and epeet.cd to fight her naval
battles with old worn out cruisers
igainst a modern navy like that
possessed by England. Do you
think we would get such vietor-
es as are due us as Americans?
Most assusedly not. Still this is
the very thing that is being dene
in Cfii'iam county. We are' ex
pectin; to do wonders in our old
fashioned way of developing a
good country with the same force
md effect that would apply if a
foreign fleet would declare war
against us and we hud nothing
but a fleet of old washtub battle
ships to battle with a modern and
up-to-date navy.
We used to thresh grain in the
early days wiih flails; we used to
cut our grain and hay with scy
thes, but what would you think
if a rancher would do the same
today in Gilliam county?
The law of least resistance
may be the easiest path to follow,
but if 'you do, you must take
