TO BUILD
TO LANDER
Statement Of President
Hughitt is Difnite to
Governor Brooks.

Governor Brooks, who returned
last week from Casper and a trip
over the new extension of the
Northwestern, stated to a Tri-
bune representative on Saturday
that there was no doubt of the in
tention of the Northwestern to ex-
tend this road through to lander
as rapidly as possible.
While on the trip over the ex-
tension, the governor had a con-
~versation with Marvin Hughitt of
the Northwestern, who stated hat
the road would be built to Lander
as fast as the graders could go.
1t is not expected that the road
will be completed in time for the
registration, but Mr.. Hughitt was
hopeful that Lander would have a
railroad by the date set for filing
on lands by the successful appli-
cants in the drawing.
"There will be no such scenes at
the places of registration in Wy
oming as occurred in Bonesteel,"
said the governor. The sheriffs
of the two counties have already
begun the careful selection of
their deputies, and by taking time
to it will pick out cool headed
men who have experience and
courage. The city governments
will also make arrangements for
additional police forces. Their
entire precaution will be to pre-
vent, rather than check disturb
ance. Crowds of toughs and tin
horns are not dangerous until they
see the enforcement of the law is
weak and get the upper hand. We
shall have the MALTA prepared, in
case an unforeseen emergency does
arise.
81 shall take a trip to the regis.
try towns myself later and make
other suggestions to the city Of
f%icials. One thing l have determ.
ined upon. There must be nc
gambling. The little harvest
which the gambling fraternity
would reap would also be a fruit
full cause of disturbance and blood
shed, and the anti-gambling Law
must be strictly enforced"

TRUNK Line
Burlington Plans Com
pleted for North and
South Line---Will Pass
Through This Valley. =

The Burlington has completed
plans for the north and south line
through Wyoming, says the Dem
yer papers, and the report also
comes from several other sources.
Their intention is to build north
from Fort Collins into the North
Park country, and then down the
Platte to this place and on north,
crossing the Union Pacific at or
near Walcott, then to connect
with the line coming south from
Cody. Owing to the sharp COM
petition among the roads to reach
the vast wealth. producing sections
of the state this road will no doubt
push their work with all possible
speed. Mr. Fitzpatrick some time
ago stated that in his opinion 400
miles of railroad would be built in
Wyoming within three years, and
that statement may come true in a
much less time.

In case any entryman fails to
make any of the payments for the
land, as provided, within the time
stated, all rights covered by such
entries shall cease, and payments
which have heretofore been made
will be forfeited and the entry
held for cancellation.
Communication of homestead en-
try may be made of these lands
under section 2301, r. s., but the
parties will be required to pay the
price for the land as fixed by the
act.
After the expiration of five
years from the date of the OPEN
ing, all the lands then undisposed
of, except mineral and coal lands,
shall be sold to the highest bidder
for cash at not less than 81 per
acre, and any of such lands re-
naming unsold after eight years
from the date of opening may be
sold to the highest bidder for cash
without regard to the minimum
limit of price.
The coded portion embraces
about two-thirds of the land within
said reservation and contains ap-
proximately 1,150,OOO acres.
When instructions relative to
said opening have been issued to
the local Offices at Lander, Wyo,
due notice thereof will be given to
the public through the press.
The date set for the opening is
fixed by law as June Is, 1906, but
owing to the fact that the Big
Horn and Wind rivers at this sea-
son of the year, on account of the
melting snow in the mountains,
are at food, and would make it
difficult, if not impossible, for en-
trymen to reach the land thrown
open, if has been decided to
change the date.
Selections of the land will be by
lottery; that is, the name, ETC., of
entryman will be placed in sealed
box and drawn, and they receive
preference in the order in which
the names are STANDARDIZATION

IRRIGATION IN WYOMING

A recent issue of the Omaha Bee
says:
Numerous irrigation projects
are being brought to the front in
Wyoming under the Carey act,
which grants water rights to peo-
pie who will develop land and
bitches. W. 81, Knepper, of Buff
falo, Wyo., was in the city Tues
day booming his project by which
he proposes to water 10000 acres
in johnson county near Kaycee.
It is called the Sahara ditch, and
is situated 100 miles from a rail
road midway between the Bur-
lington and Northwestern rail.
roads.
"The State sells this land for so
cents an acre and regulates the
price to be charged for the water
rights. Many of these enterprises
are coming to the front in Wyom-
ing which bid fair soon to trans
form this state into one vast irri-
gated farm" said Mr.. Knepper.

In the district court last Friday

mine, aerial tramway and other
properties at Grand Encampment

The petitioners allege that the
trustees of the North American
Copper company fraudulently al

it's real value and that the proper
ty was acquired by the Penn Wy

Judge Craig held in his decision
