Reprinted from the Centennial Post.
Superintendent Pelton has had the
planning mill running full capacity the
past week.
Deputy Sheriff Emil Thirkeldsen
came to Centennial Wednesday morn.
ing to investigate a rumor that he
found unfounded.
Superintendent Clark Pelton of the
Boston and Wyoming Lumber com,
pany was the first regular to enroll at

Mrs. Fred Hansen and little son
went to Laramie Wednesday to spend
the remainder of the week with rela.
tives and friends in that city.
j. v. Delaney of Laramie was the
first transit guest to register at the
Mountain View under management of
the Mettlers Saturday morning.
Our own and only inimitable Tim

agent for the Laramie Plains line, will
quit tramping for his meals, and take
up his permanent abode at the Noun

bill is seriously considered, and there
appears to be no reason why it should
not be, it ought to be amended SO that
payments may be made in ten equal
installmeats and the right of purchaza
should not be assignable.
With this hill thus amended a small
stockman would be enabled to get a
footing upon the public domain. The
ten annual installments would amount
to just a fair rental, the settler would
be devoting his energies to acquiring
title and to improving his land and
all the evils that now come to the set,
tier because of lack of possession un
der the law would be done away with.
Such a Law would settle the vacant
public lands with a rush.
