Say Railroad Wants Too Much.

During the session some rather violent
anti-railrOad talk was INDUCED in and
the sentiment was freely expressed that
the price asked for the land was so high
that it indicated disposition on.the part
of the railroad to hold up" the sheep
men. .. H. Callister was particularly
vigorous in his remarks.
1t was explained that the sheep men
are already paying for 10000 acres pur-
chased in this neighborhood and that this
is all they can stand at present.
The boys are little slow, that's all"
commented Land Agent Wills after the
meeting. There are plenty of sheep
men in Wyoming who will be glad to Sc
cure this land at the prices We offer and
it will all be sold within five days after

409.S5S acres offered il would mean the
purchase of the remaining land at a much

tracts of the property offered.
This it is claimed would cost the asso-
citation all told about 100000. which would
be paid in ten annual installments of &c.,
900 each. In addition to this tSere would
be $4,000 annual interest $4,000 taxes and
other incidentals which would make the
anpual outlay about S1z5,O0O, or tax of
about ninety cents a head each year on
all the sheep grazing IN the territory.

this purchase; it will bankrupt our in
