The daily papers the past week lavo been indulging in - articles about the Southwest Kansas & Colorado Ky., which is at present trying to secure bonds in Clark and Meade counties. It is now said that the project is being put through in the interest of the Kansas City, Mexico & Orient, which has some of the right-of-way already negotiated.

How ever, those who are familiar with the togography of the country around Arkalon do not think this probable, even if the Orient would care to cut Liberal off the route. This may be merely a bluff, to hold Liberal up for a bonus, but that is really unneccessary, as the town will be right there with the goods when the railroad people can show sufficient provocation.
