THE down east .:e ..-.'papers are
making a reat stir over the
wonderful and well authenticated
story of the finding of a cent in a

to impair the credit and to prevent
the gTowth of Kansas by circulating .
false reports as to the poverty of j
the people, and by Keeking to in- j
duce them to repudiate their debts.
Kansas is a prosperous state in"j
habited by honest people, whose in-,
debtedness is, in much the greater
part, for money borrowed with
which to purchase or to iniprov
their farms, and to the payment of;
which the prolils of their farms are
fully adequate. Half a dozen
Peifers and Sockless Simpsons can
j do more to damage Kansas in one

have none toward improving it in
six years. Kansas is what it is be

Among other reasons why it is
better to invest iu South Park than
elsewhere in the city, are these:
Property is more saleable if you
wish to sell, more rentable if you
wish to rent; if looking for an in
crease in value.no other part of the
city will compare with it in prospect

five years past almost doubling its

has taken regarding public im

of the great Missouri Pacific rail

market; the constant increasing
pay roll of the C. Ii. & Q. shops, to

a a
reasons, assure a steauy anu permar

doubtless effect South Park more
favorably than any other portion of
Plattsmouth.
With a view to the encouragement of
a still greater growth of thin part of
the city, we will continue to -sell lots on
monthly payments, furnish money
with which to erect houses will ex
change lots for other improved city
property or for desirable improved or
unimproved lands.
It is not so much the speculator
as the permanent resident that we
wish to purchase this disirable
property. Out of over eighty pres

property none are speculators
hence there are 110 fictitous values
and lots are selling at about the
price they were iminediatly after
