Will Brosius returned Saturday
morning from Longmont , Colo. ,
where he went a few days ago to
look over the country. Will tells
glowing stories of fabulous wealth
piled up in Colorado farms , buc
the other fellow has 'em and the
wealth. He saw Frank Seger and
Andrew Miller and their families ,
who are doing well. Will says
people live in comfortable houses
out there and have other substan
tial improvements. But land is
selling out there from § 100.00 to
§ 250.00 per acre. Wbat should
Cherry county farms sell for ? If
people will put good substantial
improvements on their farms here
and feel contented , they will never
need to go anywhere e'se ' to look
for something better. People can
make the money here ana what
more do we want that money
won't buy. Or what can we hope
for elsewhere that we cannot have
here ? It might be cheaper coal
and lower freight rates. Govern
or Sheldon's plan of having a rail
way commission appointed or el
ected to ad just and regulate freight
rates has not been so effective as
the Legislature's bill reducing
passenger fares to two cents a mile.
