POTASH MlillWAY MEANS
. $3,000 SPENT EACH DAY
J. M. Mllto IVllrrri Teople Do Not
Ilrllie What Onuplrtlim of
Auto Route Would Mean
J. M. Miller, proprietor of the Al
liance hotel, and one of the leading
boosters and business men of Alli
ance, does not believe that the peo
ple of Alliance reallte what the com
pletion of tho Totash Highway from
Grand Island to Alliance would mean
to thla city. Mr. Miller says that If
the business interests of. the town
n-Hlizid the results which ' would
come to Alliance In a business way,
they would get behind the project
with their money and their personal
purport In a way that would insure
an early completion of the hard-surfaced
road throuah the sandhills.
In an interview wHh Mr. Miller
yrnicrday he emphasized to a Herald
reporter a few facts which Tire well
worth considering In connection with
the Potash Highway and which are
given below:
"It was stated by enstern Nebras
ka road and tourist frame authori
ties h'. the recent rdtash Highway
meeting at Seneca that the comple
tlm of a hard-surfaced road from
'(rund Island to Alliance, leading to
Yellowstone Par and the Black
Hills, along tho route of the Potash
Highway, would mean an average
during the tourist season of 200 au
toa per day.
"In making my figures I am cut
ting this estimate In half making
the estimated number of ears per
div 100 Instead of 200. Each car
on the average would carry thrje
pasRenKf-rs. This would mean not
less than 300 people per day. AM
ant e, because of Ks Importance com
inerclally and because of Its size and
location, would naturally be the stop
pti-z point over night for practically
all of these 100 carloads of tourists
While they were In the city I esll-
ma' p. on a conservative basis, they
would spend with the different bust
ness interests of the town the follow
ing Bums of money.' V
"Oarages, automobile repair
shops, auto accessories and filling
stations an average of $10 per car,
a total of 11,000 per cay. i
"Hotels, restaurants and rooming
hoiiBcs an average of $3 per Indl
vI'IuhI, a total of $900 per day.
"Clothing, dry goods, hardware
an average of $1 per individual, a
tc .M of $300 per day.
"Drugs, soft drinks, candy an ar

total of $150 per day.
"Groceries, mept markets, fruit

"I have made these estimates on
what I consider a conservative basis.
You will find that they total $3,010
per day added Income to the business
Interests of Alliance. This Is a to
tal of $90,000 per month during the
tourist season of the year. It seems
to me thst It's well worth' going af
ter and that every business Interest
In the city should get behind the pro
ject." Hawm to Ilulld New Home

for the erection of a fine new home
on Cheyenne avenue near the school
house. tThe plans and specifications
call for all that can be Imagined In

will be a substantial addition to the
residence section of Alliance. Charles
Fuller, local contractor, has the con
tract for the work, and the Job Is no
small one either. Finished the home
will cost Mr. Hawes about $5,000.
