RAILROAD SUBSCRIPTIONS
NOW TOTAL $780, 200

The subscriptions to the bonus for
the Altus, Roswell and Ell Paso rail
road have reached the sum of
500, 200. This is 5000 above the re-
quired mark and stands as a testimo-
NAL to the energy and ability of the
people of Roswell. 1t is now up to Mr..
Kennedy to carry out his part of the
agreement. Roswell has raised the re-
quired bonus and will furnish the
terminal grounds and right of way
when required. Let Mr.. Kennedy now
build his road and he can have Ros.
wells cash.
When the project vas placed before
the people of Roswell it was a fore.
gone conclusion that the money
would be raised. There were some
people who had no faith in the plan,
but the vast majority of our people
said it would be wise to raise the mo-
ney and give MI. Kennedy his chance.
This has now been done and Roswell
awaits the pleasure of the railroad
builders.
Even though the contemplated road
should not be built and the plans fall
through, Roswell has shown what it
a do in a case of this kind, and
what 1t has done for Mr.. Kennedy, it
will 10 again should occasion require.
In other words. Roswell has hung up
a bonus of n hundred thousand dol
lars for the first railroad to reach
Roswell. Who will get that bonus?
