"The enormous sato of InndB In the five
states west of tho Missouri river, In which
tho Union Pacific has land grants obtained
from the government at the time of tho
construction of tho route Is certainly nn
cloquont showing of tho prosperous condi

Bald an olllclal of tho land department last
night "In all tho history of tho Union Pa
cific land department no such an acreage
has been disposed of.
"It has been the policy of the land depart

taken up for tho purposo'of speculation.
Tho most of tho land was purchased with
the intention of using it for grazing pur
poses and except curtain trncts sold In Kan
sas and eastern Colorado but llttlo will be
usod for agricultural pursuits.
"This remarkable salo of land during the
year Is unquestionably duo to tho Improved
financial cor.dltlonH that have existed In
tho west during tho past year or more.

In business for a number of years and have
made a great deal of money in tho sale of
their stock, owing to tho high prices pre
vailing. These prollts they have turned In
tho channel of added acquisition of land,
bollovlng no better Investment possible.
Cattlo aud sheep men aro confident that
these good prices will continue and they
aro banking against tho future and avoiding
possible encroachments upon the territory
necessary to tho tnalntcnanco of their busi

"Many of our purchiiHers havo In years
pono by depended upon free rango for their
cattle and sheep. Recently, howovor, the
taking up of the best land by settlors and
tho growing complications between the cat-
tin nnd sheep men have forced tho owner
hlp of rango. In this way the overcrowding
of ranges when used In common In avoided

faction and better returns from his bunch
of cattlo or flock of whoop, lly buying rail

utockman has been enabled to own nnd con
trol nil tho land necessary to tho successful
conduct of his business. Tho high prices of
land In tho states east of tho Missouri river
liavo forced people to look to western No
ibraska, Kansas, Colorado and Wyoming for
cheaper lands.
"We expect to make big sales of land for
farming purposes In Kansas during tho com
ing year. Tho splendid crops amured In tho
Sunflower state this year will attract atten
tion to It. Tho drouth nnd failure of crops
in the Dakotas will divert Immigration to
Kansas, a large proportion of which under
ordinary circumstances would go to tho Da
kotas. Wo expect a continued largo busi
ness in tne uispixmion or grazing lamis in
Colorado and Wyoming. Tho desirable ell
mate of those states Is nno attractive fca

Night Work
Night office hours arc dis
agreeable at the best, but how
much worse it is when you
have to climb stairs because of no elevator service, and
grope through dark halls.
The Bee Building:
elevators run day, night and Sundays. The Bee Build
ing is always illuminated. It makes the best office build
ing for a doctor, who'wishes night or Sunday office hours.
On account of the Army Headquarters moving we
can accommodate you with any sort of a room you wish.
