RAILROAD MEETING

Last Saturday afternoon a large
number OF ranchmen and citizens
of Monte Vista met in Town hall
to hear the proposition which A..
T. Young, consulting engineer for
the Cosgriff brothers, had to sub
nit to those who will be benefited
by the proposed new railroad be-
tween Monte Vista and SaguachA.
Mr.. Young's proposition was
that each landowner to be bene-
flied by nearer shipping point on
the new railroad can afford to SUBJ
scribe for $40 Of the preferred
stock Of the Monte Vista and Sa-
guache railroad, for each quarter
section per mile saved; this amount
to be covered by note, half of
which will fall due when the
tracts shall be laid to the north
line of the township in which the
subscriber is located; the other
half a year later. In this manner
the subscriber advances no money
until the railroad work in his dis
trict is actually completed.
Ward barley went over the
histories Of the various railroad
enterprises in the San Luis valley
and pointed ont that this is the
only opportunity this district will
have, to better transportation faoil-
tiles for an extremely indefinite
period and urged that the terms
offered by the CrosgriH brothers
through their representative, be
regarded favorably.
w. 0. Station voiced the general
sentiment Of those present, saying:
1--WE need . saih6Ad, we must
have one If We are to avail our.
selves Ut good markets on perish
able goods; if We could get q
railroad without having TO pay out
anything, I would, of course prefer
it, but capital for an enterprise of
this sort is scarce. For my part,
l will gladly and willingly sub
scribe in proportion TO tho number
Of acres l now own and I hope the
rest feel the same way about it.
We will have our money back
when we have paid only one-half
our notes. 1t is very reasonable"
II those who are to be benefited
by this road will take hold in a
business way the roed will un.
doubleday b. built, otherwise not.
A similar meeting in Center
was held Friday and the enter.
prise was promised enthusiastic
support.

never an accident of any consequence
had happened Then like a bolt from
