The agreement which was nally produc- edbefore the Council calls for the pavment to the Kansas City`C0m- panv of $10,000.00 in cash, and `$40,- 000.00 preferred stock. and $159,000.-00 common` stock and. besides a mini- mum royalty of $4,000.00 per year. or a total. consideration` of $200,000.00 for some blue prints and descriptions: Does. any sane man believe for one minute that .Hill and his associates ever intended to giveisuch `an absurd amounit for _;s0methin2'_ of very little value. unless they knew perfectlv well` that alm0st.thc entire part, of it .wa's,com_i_nz back to them by way of the.rake-off.` pursuant._ to the. prion agreement already referred to.

He ad- mitted that Hill had told him shortly before the vote, and when he was no longer Town So1ici_tor, that he would give him two hundred dollars if he would speak for the by-law, provid- ed itcarried, and fifty dollars if it didn t; but his reply tohim was that if he could get a letter from Mr. Dy- ment stating that he. would put his money into it, and that he was be- hind it, he; would `gladly `speak, for the by-law, but if he would not he couldn t.
