In view of the fact hat after all that
has been done and is now being done,
Cheyenne may fail of having an artesian
well, the project has been revived, to the
extent OF discussing the matter, of bring
ing the water from 1.-THE big spring to
Cheyenne by means of pipes oraqueducts.
The spring alluded to Is one Of the largest
and finest in this or any other country and
lies at the head of the south fork OF Grow
creek, indeed, the branch heads in this
spring, and but a little distance from
Granite Canyon. The water of this spring
is probably the purest and coolest that
can be found in this territory. Engineers
say that the plan of bringing the water to
this city is feasible and the cost would not
be as great as might at first be supposed
