Mr.* Fernandez reports the recent
acquisition of one and a half million
dollars for the building of the Orient
road. The states of Chihuahua and
Sinaloa have recently voted to the road
h3 says, $75,000 American money, be-
sides granting other concessions.
"The right of way for the road in
Mexico," said Mr. Fernandez, "will not
<-o.^t a cent. We will have to buy no
right of way. This has all been arran-
ged with the states through which the
line is to pass. The goverment of
Mexico has, also, granted an import-
ant concession. There will be no
import duties on the material shipped
into Mexico and used for the con-
struction of the Orient road. Ties will
not cost more than 25 cents, American
money, each; and the pay of laborers
will not be more than 20 cents a day.
ho you see the expense of building the
road will be greatly reduced. We
have now eight surveydrs in the field.
"The company has recently made ar-
rangements for the purchase of two
million acres of railroad land at 5 cents
an acre, and ia allowed five years to
pay for it. This land is all good. It
is timber and grazing land. The gov-
erment of Mexico has given its per-
misson for the building of an interna-
tional bridge across the Rio Grande
at Presidio del Norte for the railroad
The Mexican government has also
sent an official note to Washington
asking the United States government
to grant the same concession. This we
confidently expect to have soon. It

Mr. Fernandez says that although
the building of the Kansas City, Mex-
ico & Orient railroap will be very ex-
pensive, the expense will be reduced
by the constant aid of the government
of Mexico. Already, he says, that
government, together with the gov-
ernment of different states, have ad-
vanced four million dollars to th"? buil- |
bing of the road. The Topeka Daily

The Kansas City. Mexico & Orient

"We now have 47 miles graded in
Oklahoma," he said, "and the grade

ward Anthony about seven miles.
Work on the remaining nine miles to
connect the Oklahoma line that town
will soon begin. We bought 124

The Orient surveyors ran a line
down Turtle creek as far as A. G.
Boone's farm and pulled up the stakes
and abandoned it. Then they ran one
farther east, Lut abandoned that also.
The corps has returned to a point
north, and will come again on an-
other line before the locHfton is or-
dered. Mr. M. Paret chief engineer,
ia expected over the line to-day and
something definite will likeiy be de-
veloped before many days.
I Later.— The Orient surveyors are
camped at Rogers. They returned
to Thomas and are running a new
line west of their former lines.
They are expected ^to move their
camp to Arapahoe in a few days.

It don't pay in Oklahoma for a man
to accumulate property unless he has
a marriage contract which will pro-
tect him from the rapacity of a mer-
cenary wife who is governed by a
rascally attorney.—Enid Daily Jour*
nal.
Why not make matrimonial pur-
chases subject to approval? Divorce
laws were invented to help the "raf-
eally attorney" in securing alimony
for the "rapacity of a mercenary wife'
providing she has not already appeat •
ed her greed and got all the mcney
before the seperation takes place.
Divorse enables the rich husband to
free himself from the marriage con-
tract. But the poor devil who is con-
tent to use a nail to connect his trous-
ers to his suspenders generally puts
up with the blank he drew in the
matrimonial lottery, while the blank-
ety, blank, blank, amuses herself in
the kitchen with the wash tub. The
I worry and anxiety of married life is
not endured alone by the improtected
husband. The look on the average
married woman's face should convini e
the girls that the average man U not
worth the exertion necessary >q cap-
ture him.
