says that the people of this part of

and his wife and daughter have just
come. He says the people out west
are all broke. Most of them bought
land at high prices and they cannot
get money with which to develop the
land or carry on the work of producing
a croip. There is comparatively no
stock in the big pastures and the peo

of building is going on there, but he
believes it is eastern capital that is
doing the work.
