Grand River Opinion

All the Grand river papers qom-
ment on the publication Of the pros
pectus of the Grand River, Meeker
d Salt Lake railroad, and are unani-
nous in the opinion that 1t will be
built as projected.
The Steamboat Pilot says:
| "For several months there have
been numerous rumors, concerning
the sale Of several ranches in the
Grand valley below New Castle,
among which are the old Slaughter
and the Henrickson ranches, and it
has been said that the object Of the
proposed purchase is to start a town
which is to be known as Chapman,
and from this town to run line of
railroad to Meeker and thence on
through eastern Utah to Salt Lake,
Chapman to be the main point Of
connection with the Denver & Rio
0fande.
'sThe Post has made little or no
mention of the venture because we
saw no evidence of any substantial
action, and we did not care to publish
what looked very much like rumors
aud nothing more, considering that
We could we'll afford to walt until
GAmedefinite action had been taken by
those promoting the venture, at least
to the extent Of filing some papers
and making some claims as to what
they proposed to do"
1.-THE papers in question have been
filed and an engineering corps is in
the field locating permanent line
for the graders to work on.-Ed. Her
