FACTORIES NEEDED, SAYS MANSS
Ashland Is Told that Farming Com
munity Mas Reached Its Growth. J
Ashland, Neb. Feb., 25. -Ily invita
tion of the Ijuslness Men's association,
W. II. Munss of Chicago, Industrial
commissioner of the Hurllngton, vis
ited Ashland and conferred with the
morchants of tlio town concerning tho
futuro growth of this city. In hla
talk to them Mr. Manss impressed up
on their minds the lact that the future
of tho small city In eastern Nebraska
dopeuds solely upon tho changing of
the character of Its buying community.'
Tho agricultural community about
tho town has reached Its full growth
and tho business men can look to ilt
tlo increase In iho iuturo in tho popu
lation of their surrounding rural dis
trict. Increased railroad facilities
have developed tho mall order houses
of tho larger cities which are limiting
serious inroads upon tlio local mer
chant's sales. This problem can best
bo mot by converting tho small city In
to a factory town. Many manufact
uring concerns are leaving tho larger
cities on account or high rentals and
tlio difficulty in obtaining labor and
aro looking to tho small towns In Illi
nois, Iowa and Nebraska for suitable
locations. Mr. Manss demonstrated
that the financial returns from tho lo
cation of even one factory would bo
great inasmuch as such an Institution
employing 100 persons at an average
price of $1 a day moans a payroll of
$000 a week. Mr. Manss held that this
was a larger sum than the entire
amount of money spent in Ashland or
any town of similar slzo in Nebraska
by tho farmers of tho surrounding
community.

It wns early In the afternoon of
March 2!) that Loder, in response to a
long standing Invitation, lunched (juici
ly with the Fraldes. Helng delayed by
some communications from Wnrk, he
was a few minutes late In keeping his
appointment, and on being shown Into
the drawing room f mini the little group
of three that wok to make up the party
already assembled Frnldo. Lady Sa
rah and live. As be entered the room
they ceased to speak, iflid all three
turned In his dlrcrtbn.
In the first moment he had a vague
Impression of responding suitably to
Lady Sarah's cordial greeting, but he
knew that Inimod.av.y anil uncon
sciously his eyes turned to live, while
n quick sense of surpr.se and satisfac
tion passed through him at sight of
her. For an Instant he wondered how
she would mark hi avoidance of her
since their last eventful Interview: then
instantly be blamed b'mself for tho
passing' doubt. For, before all things,
he knew her to be a woman of the
world.
He took Fralde's outstretched hand,
and again he looked toward live, wait
ing for her to speak.
blie met his glance, but said nothing.
Instead of speaking she smiled at him
a sinllo that was far more re issuiin-,'
than any words, a smile that in a
single second conveyed forgiveness,
approbation and a warm, nliuiMt tea
dor sense of sympathy and comprehen
sion. The remembrance of that stnllo
stayed with him long nfler they were
seated at table and lar Into tho future
the' remembrance of the lunch itself,
with its pleasant private sense of sat
isfaction, was destined to return to
him lu retrospective moments. The
delightful atmosphere of the Fruidos'
home life had always been a wonder
and an enigma to him, but on this day
lie mwiiioiI to irrasn Its meaning by a
Persian gulf, round which British In
terests and Influence center, and the
consequently alarming position of hun
dreds of traders who, Hi the security
of British sovereignty, aro fighting
their way upward from India, from
Afghanistan, even from Ihiglancl her-
self.
Following up his point, he dilated on
these subjects of the British crown
who, cut off from adequate assistance,
can only turn In personal or commer
cial peril to the protective power of
the nearest consulate. Thou, quietly
deinauiilng the attention of his hear
ers, lie marshaled fact after fact to
i.omonstratc the Isolation ami Inade
quacy of a consulate so situated; the
all Siit arbitrary power of Itussla, who
In her new occupation of Meshed had
only two considerations to withhold
her from open aggression the knowl
edge of Kugluiid as a very consider
able, buf also a very distant, power;
the knowledge of Persia as an Immi
nent, but wholly Impotent, factor In
the ease.
Having stated his opinions, he re
verted to tho motive of his speech his
desire to put forward a strong protest
against the adjournment of the house
without an assurance from the govern
ment that Immediate treasures would
be taken to safeguard Liitlsh Interests
In Meshed and throughout tho province
of Khorassan.
The Immediate outcome of Loder's
speech was all that his party bad de
sired. Tlio effect on the house had been
marked, and when, no satisfactory re
spouse coming to his demand, lie had
lu still more resolute and Insistent
terms called for a division on tho mo
tion for adjournment, the result had
been an appreciable fall in the govern
ment majority.
To Loder himself the realization that
lie had at last vln Heated and justified
himself by Individual action had a pe
culiar effect. Ills position had been al
tered in one remarkable particular.
Before tli's day he a!o:ie had known
himself to be strong: now the knowl
edge was shared by otlici-a and he was
human enough to be susceptible to the
change.

of Chllcoto could obtrudo Itself. Invents
