LANDON'S REBUILDING.
It Is now n "Cinch" and The Press
Score's the Fulfillment of Another
' - Prophecy.
"The Lundon will bo rebuilt I"
This is what The Press said in its
first issue niter the great fire and
has repeated nnd reiterated several
times since.
Mr. Lnudon left tho city Sun-
dny it is reported for St. Louis
to buy a restuurnnt. outfit it
having previously been given out
thnt when negotintions nbout the
$10000 bonus had reached the
point thnt justified it he would
make toaiporary arrangements
to resume business. These nr-
rangemonts were to consist of
opening a restaurant in the build-
ing now occupiod by R. A. Flnn-
ngan who is to tnke tho building
vncnted since the fire by A. D.
White & Co.
As to' the bonus matter it was
reported that it had progressed
sufficiently yesterday to justify
those having the matter in charge
to wire Mr. Landon that they
were ready to close tho deal with
him. It 5b understood also that
Mr. Landon has an option from
Messrs. Copeland fe Mitchell on
their 50 feet front adjoining the
hotel sito.
It is a matter for general con-
gratulation that this matter of
tho building of a large hotel so
important to tho city has been
settled.
No doubt now thnt it hns the
work of rebuilding will be begun
nt once nnd pushed to completion
with all possible haste consistent
with good work.
Now for n business men's club.
