SUBSIDIARY DEVELOPMENT.

The Republican has Boston advices
to the effect that a company is in pro-
cessnofn organization In chat city for
the express purpose of developing le-
climate enterprises along the line Of
the Laramie, Hahns Peak and Pacific
railroad. now familiarity known as the
Laramie Plains line. The management
OF the railroad has passed entirely In
to the hands of Mr.. Fred A. Miller, 80
we'll and favorably known to the citi.
xens of southern wyoming, and the
organization and management of the
new company has been taken in charge
by Mr.. Isaac Van Horn, the original
promoter and organizer of the Plains
road. .Jn1a-G luuu alAa Eit4
The new company will be known as
the sBoswyocole company and will be
capitalized at $lO,0 O0, 900, divided into
ten million shares OF one dollar each.
Mr.. Van Horn is financing the com.
pany by the sale of the stock at ten
cents per share net, with no commits
sions or brokers' profits to anyone, to
secure a fund of $ 1000 900 in cash for
the purposes of the organization.
Those familiar with the resources Of
the country lying contiguous TO the
Plains line and Its route, can readily
See what the possibilities are for such
a company. THE North park region is
full of great coal measures, big low
grade silver veins, vast forests Of tim
Der, thousands upon thousands of head
of live stock and presents a field for
the mineral prospector Of unsurpassed
possibilities. The mines about old
Teller were closed because OF inacces-
sibility to market. The low grade ores
OF the Endomile n other properties
could not be transported to the smell
ters of Denver and Omaha without q
railroad into that section. At one time
the Union Pacific projected a line into
the park (the Laramie, North Park and
Pacifc), but a change in management
caused a suspension of the work. after
fifteen miles of rail had been laid.
Since, then there has been much devel-
opment In the North park region and
the demand from the outside for Its
products also greatly increased. The
trafic in sight is considerable and the
possibilities for the future are beyond
computation. n ~ $40
II The Republican is advised correct
ly as to the purposes of Mr.. Van Horns
new company. 1t will aid in the develop
ment of any proposition that has merit
In 1t, such as coal mines, silver mines,
gold mines, copper mines or any OF the
industries that become profitable
through the advent OF a railroad.
The people OF the territory adjacent
to the line of the new road are as
much interested in. the development Of
subsidiary projects as they are in the
building of the road itself, for the rea-
son that their prosperity depends upon
the local business to even a greater
extent than through traffic. This is
the case with people along the line OF
the Union Pacific. Thousands of men
are employed In the coal mines of~Rock
Springs, which are bringing vast re-
turns to their owners and at the same
time sustaining cities of several thou
sand people. This is merely a sug-
gestion ~ to what might come to the
people of North park after the Plains
line is constructed into 1t, as well as
to other sections Of country along the
route Hoots so f-fo~- ~
The people of Laramie and vicinity
who have had dealings with Mr.. Fred
A. Miller and the other representatives
of Mr.. Van Horn in the west, will well
come the coming Of the new corpora
ton, for Il will mean development Of a
section rich in possibilities. The peo-
pie investing in these lesser companies
ought to have an equal chance for re-
turns with the stockholders In the rail-
road. The possibilities would appear
even better. Do q
