Tract of Land
For moro than a week the Union Pa
cific and John W. Bnughman have been
engaged In a lively controversy over
the 21,000 acre tract of land along the
north river north of town which tho
latter purchased uoveral years ago. It
appears that on the grounds of an al
leged unfullfilUd contract tho cympany
has been Inclined to tako possession of
the tract by occupancy, and fpr a time
had a repreientativo camping near the
bridgo. Baughman recently erected a
shanty and baa ben "at home to his
friends" there with a small American
flag floating in th ambient atmosphere.
The McDaniels boya who last year had
a leaso on the range, rut about 800
head of cattle on the range a few days
ago, and it Is understood that they
have loascd the range from the railroad
company for another year. They have
been notifiod by Baughman to vacate,
end tho time In which to do so was up
yesterday or today. There arc many
legal frills to to the case, and where it
will all end remains to be seen. It
seems that Baughman already has close
to $50,000 tied up in the tract. -Suther-Freo

Only comes to the man who Jets the "best in the land" to, help
him whether it be men, building material or anything else.
We carry the "best in the land" in lumber and building material
because we were not satisfied till we had searched the whole land
to obtain it. It is all to the grand.
And it doesn't cost you a cent more than the second or third
best. i
It you're thinking of buying lumber or building material, you
can't go shy shoving your order at us.
All we ask is the opportunity to "show you."
