*** As for ''why'' the land would be worth a fortune, well, the town was already in place even before the railroad came--so there has to have been a reason the town was already there. In the old West, generally that meant a nearby mine or other valuable resource.

In the old West, generally that meant a nearby mine or other valuable resource. (A major water source such as a river would also qualify, but we never see anything like that in the town proper.)

** Hedley's reasoning is that by having Bart fall madly in love with Lili only for her to abandon him will leave him too depressed to thwart his efforts to appropriate the town.

* How did Jim end up in jail? Which is to say, who put him there? Was he arrested by the previous sheriff and has been sleeping it off all that time or something?

** It's a common enough gag in period and small town stories that the town drunk is known and a regular, and to save time, the sheriff just lets them bring themselves in. It varies whether the cell is locked, the drunk has the key, or the cell door locks on its own when closed. So it's possible that Jim has this sort of arrangement and walked into the cell on his own, drunkenly oblivious to what's going on in town.
