It seems that the citizens have not decided to pay the $1,000 asked by Mrs. McDonald for ten acres and $1,700 asked by Mr. Schnebley for 34 acres to make up the pool of 400 acres demanded by the railway company and it is rumored that Mr. Shoddy will give the company all his ground at the old town and take what he can get in the new and move his store up there. This leaves Ellensburg in precisely the same fix, relatively as Yakima."NO KNOWN COPYRIGHT The organization that has made the Item available reasonably believes that the Item is not restricted by copyright or related rights, but a conclusive determination could not be made.
