town ol 4000 (lr, It Is up to date In ever) way. It has a
sociable, IniluMtloiis class nl profile, with up to date vrhmdi,

City. It Is a jfood little town with many modern bungalows,

loadlnir jards for MolIc.
This ranch Is all b med and cross fenced Into 4 pAstures,
anil has sis yootl watering plants, three room house, tiratidinsr
shoot mid other small Improvements. 1 here are 11,000 acres
ol this ramh that Is deeded, and Is the land here ollered lor
sale, 1 he balance Is Government I'urjst Heserve land, and
the whole nmnunt Is leased for about 130 per jear. This
Forest Keserve land can only be leased by patties uwnlua this
deeded land. This ranch Is watered by windmills, and alwas
has plenty of itood frefch water for the stock, whh.li is much
better than boacy creeks. This ranch is all underlaid with
solt sheet water, that Is always pure and cool In summer and
warm In winter and Is Inexhaustible. This water can be had
ny place on the rnncli by driving a pipe down 40 to 60 fee'.
There are about 4.000 acres of kooiI smooth farm land out of
the 11,000 acres. Tho ba'ance Is tolling to ruiiKh, and Is nut
considered kooiI for larmintr, but Is the very best ol urazlnjr
U ml, and Is .ill covered III a unod coat nl crass. The prin
cipal grasses arc blue stein, bunch, grama and bulTalo. which
makes this ranch valuable as a winter or summer ranch. The
buflalo grass Is the best winter pasture, nnd the other crasscs
reconsidered best In summer. Mr. James Com alii, who has
lust retired from the olficc of Stale Treasurer of .Missouri,
OMiisn ranch JoIiiIiik this rancii. lie claims to haveiilcared
floo.Ooo In five years ImihIIIiiu Mock on his ranch. The rouirli
land furnish" jjoml wind brakes, and makes n great protection
In winter. This runih would be a l'aradl.e to any stock man,
who Is able to own It and stock It. 'I hit ran h should be kept
blocked as It Is, but the present owner will dlvl Ir It to suit tho
buy m, If a reasonable division can be agreed upon. The
climate In this part of the country Is scry fine for handling
stock, both winter mid summer, and Is an ideal place for the
stock business. The owner o( this ranch has spent ten years
blocking It, but has decided to reduce his business, ami sell
the ranch at a bargain, lie has decidedtto sell this ranch for
J?rQ poracrp, and will sell lor J I 50 i tr acre cash, nod the
balance In 12 equal annual payments, with 5 Ui per cent ln
tcrcst on delerred payment. This low price, good terms, and
low rate ol Interest makes this n very desirable proposition.
Several men could form n company and buy this ranch and not
work a hardship on any one ol them. This ranch Is near good
markets, nnd the shrink on stock Is very small In shipping.
The 4,000 acres id arm laud will grow good crops of coin,
svhett, knlllr corn, inalrc and cane. Many fields ran be seen
In this put oj the country on this kind of land, that the crop
will more than pay (or the land It grew on. One man on this
kind of laud had corn that averaged 37 Ibiishcls per aire last
season; As long as population continues to Increase, this
ranch ll crow In value.

Jacksonville (Fia.) Times-Union:
Do8iite the opinions we have ex
pressed of Mr. Bryan during the last
four years opinions which we re
iterate today wo are pleased with
his appointment, for we expect a
great and good work from him. Wo
base our expectations on the opin
ions ho has- expressed as to foreign
policy ever since he has boon in pub
lic life. Looking back wo can not re
call an instance where ho has been
inconsistent or where we do not
think ho was entirely right.
Tho Times-Union acknowledges no
loadors and does not aspire to lead,
but in regard to tho foreign policy
of this government it has gone sldo
by side with Mr. Bryan ever since ho
has been in public life. In this re
spect our paths havo never diverged
for a moment, and we are justified
in expecting from Mr. Bryan pre
cisely the administration of foreign
affairs that wo consider right.
Expressed briefly, wo beliovo Mr.
Bryan's control of tho state depart
ment will mean that our dealings
with other nations will be based en
reason instead of force that we will
turn back from policies incompatible
with tho principles on' which our gov
ernment is founded to tho old poli
cies that made of our country, even
in tho days of its weakness, a moral
power for right. All this Mr. Bryan
will do if in office ho lives up to his
declarations when out of offlce. Many
others stand for these policies, but
ho is strong enough to carry them
out, and wo are confident that he
will.
Savannah (Ga.) Press: "Col. W.
J. Bryan has found a place for tho
ox-presidents and ex-vice presidents,
and ex-speakors of the house of rep
resentatives ho would havo them
enjoy the argument privileges of the
floor In the two houses of congress.
But ho does not suggest an official
place for a many-times ex-candidato
for the presidency." Athens (Ga.)
Banner.
Mr. Bryan does not have to make
official opening for himself. No man
is more popular or Is held in higher
esteem by his fellow citizens. Ho
occupies an unique distinction in
America. His honors have not been
confirmed by electoral colleges, but
await him wherever he goes at tho
hands of his compatriots.
Mr Bryan's position at Baltimore
Was that of n. wnrrlnv nrA xxt ii.
------ mr w W S A xs a, sV4 IX Y W iL 1 V It It
He literally beat down the enemies
of the progressives and pointed the
way to the unanimous nomination of
Woodrow Wilson. He gave back to
the standard-bearer of his party tho
flag which ho had carried in so many
contests and took tho field in the
flght which followed. He helped the
democratic nominee to sweep the

no man has acted more splendidly
and succeeded more completely.
Surely the presidency is not needed
to round off the greatness of a man
ike Mr. Bryan. He does not have
to sit in tho halls of legislation to bo
potent in the councils of the nation.
He does not have to occupy the Whito
House to havo his voice heard or his
advice respected. He can go direct
to the people any time and thousands
will applaud him and follow him.
We do not know that he would ac
cent ailV TlOHlHnn mlnh 1 .
li, .. -w ...uui tnu new an-
ministration. His friends flv
even the office of secretary of state
at the presidential board would not
justify Mr. Bryan's real position, it
may be that he would prefer to ren
resent tho president abroad, to travel
and to study and to stand for Ameri
ca at the greatest of the European
courts. But whatever his position is
is
his standing at home will be assured
just as his greatness has always been
recognized abroad. Wherever he is
his voice will be heard and when he
speaks, truth and eloquence will be
expressed and dignity and justice will
stand up with him.
Denver News: The short extract
from the talk of Secretary of State
Bryan to assistant secretaries and
other officials of the state depart
ment, sent out by telegraph and
printed in the papers, fairly conveyed
the impression that Mr. Bryan did
not regard the tenure of his office as
at all certain and that he might re
sign from it within a short time.
It created wonderment and specu
lation was freely indulged in as to
why it was and the motive that
lurked behind such a talk, pven hn.
foro he had been sworn in. But Mr.
Bryan's full talk on this occasion
shows there was no ground for such
fears and removes all doubt as to
his intention, not only to fill the po
sition to the best of his ability, but
to remain oy Ms chief President
Wilson and strive with all his great
powers co maice the administration
both popular and successful.
Really his talk for it was but a
familiar and encouraging talk with
his under-secretaries and the others
who had been gathered by Secre
tary Knox to be introduced to Mr.
Bryan, his successor, and that he
himself might bid them a personal
farewell requires no interpretation.
There is nothing hidden between the
lines. It was a frank, free, informal
and pleasant address of a new chief
to his subordinates, to put them at
their ease and to let them know that
ho appreciated their intelligence and
loyalty to the government service
and to the chief under which they
had to that time served.
Mr. Bryan may be regarded as a
fixture in the cabinet, and the coun
try is fortunate at thG assurance that
in the important and ofon delicate
and dangerous relations between the
United States and foreign nations
Mr. Bryan, with his conservatism,
wide experience and patriotism, will
bo at the helm of the state depart
ment while the country is under the
administration of Woodrow Wilson.
