W. D. ARl\ISTROXG , County Treasurer of Cherry County. By GEliTRUDE JORDAN , Deputy. The Interurban Line. W. K. Palmer , the engineer of Kansas City , who has had in charge the survey of the water power and proprosed interurvban railway line for C. H. Cornell , re turned here Wednesday evening with the two crews who have been doing the field work , the same having been completed , where the crews were dismissed. In work ing back corrections were made and in some instances new loca- tions were adopted which im- proves the line ] in many respects , until now Mr. Palmer thinks he has determined en a very favor- able route. The survey is made to Fairfax , via Burton , one line being survey- ed through Spring\ iew and anoth- er leaving it to the south of the line about four miles. It will be necessary to compare costs of the tvo routes and make comparisons , which will take some time in the office , before it can , . be determined . whether or not the route through Springview will adopted. The field work having been com- pleted , it will take some thirty days in the office to complete the survey and estimate cost of con- struction , after which Mr. Palmer will be obliged to collect data as to the resources of the country , the probable revenue to . both the wat- er power and the railway line , which will take a month at least ] , and it will likely be the early part of October before Mr. Cornell will be properly fortified to go be- fore the parties having the capital for , the purpose of negotiating the securities. However , Mr. Palmer found more than he had anticipted in the quantity and flow of water for the power , with most favorable con- ditions for developing. ] Also , along the line ] of the - proposed rail- - way the country is much farther advanced -material resources than he had anticipated finding. . , He , therefore , thinks that capital will readily be found for financing the two enterprises. . : A.

Hastings and Kearney for 7100 for the U. S. and Canada territory. He is going to work on his pet project now of building his engine for his railless railroad scheme and says it will haul loads to town from Hackberry Lake in two hours. This machine _ is supposed to make its own track forming a cement as it goes but it won't need a dining car attachment because . you can eat black bass for break- fast at Hackberry Lake , come in- to towL , get a few glasses of beer and get back for a black bass din- ner at the Lake. When Milt gets his machine to working there will be a new colonization of the west and land will be worth § 59 an acre more than now. . ' I ' " I . . ' . 1 , , ' .
