Marble folks are beginning to take
a good deol of interest in the proposed
road to Gunnison and Crested Butte
via the North Fork. In discussing the
road the Marble Booster says: Even
with the present number of ranchers
over in the Muddy country who would
find Marble their natural trading point
if road came across the top of the
hill, it would mean large amount of
new trade, but with the opening of the
road, the number of ranchers would be
increased, for that country over there
is wonderfully rich and all it needs to
make it prosperous community is an
outlet road. Marble business people
will show considerable foresight If
they will just stop moment to appre.
ciate the advantages of bringing this
section into touch with this town and
act accordingly.
