THE Burlington 4 Missouri railroad
should lose no time in getting a railroad bill
before our Legislature. There is no reason
why that popular and wealthy corporation
should not receive the distinguished on
sideration of our Republican w~irepullers.
That road is now engaged in surveying
northward from Sterling. Colo via Eg-
bert, Laramie county, Wyoming, in the
direction Of Fort Fetterman. 1t is re-
ported that the Burlington 4 Missouri
will be the first road to reach that com
peting point" This company might be
induced to construct a branch from Egg
bert to Cheyenne. if they get a fair show
with the other two companies now 10
ably represented before the Legislative
assembly. Unless Cheyenne gets railway
connection with the above mentioned
competing point. for which all railways in
this section are now making a race, our
people will be compelled to establish a
bull -team-express for the purpose of
hauling their supplies from Fetterman,
the competing point, to Cheyenne.
