a year antt a half ago, except that
the line 1 as been changed from But
ler to Fort Scott leaving Ricli Hill
some ten or twelve miles to the east.
The reasons for this change are sim
ply the interests ot the enterprise and
of the gentlemen investing their
money in it. The change makes
the route shorter, is cheaper to build,
better grades when built, passe
through a better countrv, and over
large beds tef coal which the com
pany has made arrangements to con
trol. I lad-w e gone to Rich Hill w e
would in addition to a main line tw
miles longei than our present routv-.
nilc-s of
i
have had to btiild several
switches in order to reach coal
an.
then could pnly get it on leases by
paying ! high royalty tor the privilege
of mining. We would have to com
pete with two other roads for the
1 usiness of Rich Hill, and with two
strong coal companies, with
a trade already established, tor Rich
Hill coal. The chance for our
getting enough Rich Hill business or
selling enough Rich Hill coal under
these circumstances did not seem t
me to justify so huge an addtional
outlay. For us to ouild via Rich
Hill and then build switches out
from our, main line to where we
could get good coal lands at as fair
a price as we get them in Walnut
would cost $200,000 more than to
build direct acioss the Walnut coal
fields, where vc have the coal
directly on our main line.
The report that we are simply go
ing to build a spur to the Gulf road
.and then stop, is simply a falsehood
that no man has reason to circulate,
and that I do not think any man in
t ....
oaies county oeueves. 1 am sure
those who are most industriously
circulating the report do not believe
it, tor belief would destroy their
only reason tor circulating it. Plainly
tluir only reason for their course is
fear that a rival tow n to Rich Hill
will grow up in the southwest part
of the country. It their reports are
true, and there is no danger of this
why need they be so much concerned
about it? I do not know whether a
town of any great diminsions will
grow up at walnut or not' but I do
know that a rail-road w ill be built a
cross the Walnut coal fields extend
"ig as tar south as Fort Scott, and its
tar north as Odessa : that a co;d com
pany will be organized at Walnut.
Walnut coal put on the market, and
-hat a town company will be organi
zed and lots sold to whoever wants
io ouv them. I can not guarantee
persons buying lots against taihire
"ui loss in case the tow n should
prosper but I
this county benefited by fust the
amount of money we buy in and
spend here. Hut we have made
through examination, have counted
the cost and propose to take the
risks. Tuos. M. Xichol.
Mr. Ilendrix recently remarked:
"Did voi; ever think what :: tak lies

that any man who covets the task
