few grouches showed up but this was
more than overcome by tho liberal
support of the majority. y.
That the Cuion Pncific highway Is
destined to be the most talked of road
of the west is now almost an assured
thing. There is no question that the
county commissioners will see to it
that the road is put in shape and the
enterprising citizens along the line
have showed tlleir good spirit by rais-
ing the necessary money to see that
is properly logged ard advertised in
the eastern states.
While this proposition hos long been
given some consideration and thought
1t has ohly been the last two months
that anything has really been accom-
plished and rapid progress is now be-
ing made to have the road in good
shape and properly marked before the
tourist season is on.-Lincoln Demo-

4 Crowd Of Real Boosters
ss4eaisH Visit Limon.

Three auto loads of Union Pacific
Highway boosters were in Limon Wed
nesday u few hours trying to interest
our people in good road along the
Union Pacific between Kansas City and
Denver and move particularly between
Oakley, Kansas, and Limon
1t is to the interest of Limon to work
with these people on this project for
this route will lessen the mileage be-
tween Denver and Kansas City. Fur
thermore. a highway will be construc-
ted between Kit Carson on the Union
Pacific Highway and Lamar on the
Santa F'e trail which is intended to di-
vert travel from southern Kansas,
Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas from
the Santa Fe trail at Lamar to the
Union Pacific Highway, making a
much shorter route to the mountains.
The boosters only had an hour or SO
to stay here and we're unable to see all
of our people. A meeting will be held
in Limon in the near future and invi-
tations will be extended to every town
along the Union Prcliic between Den
YER and Oakley, Kansas, to talk good
roads and plan for a greater tourist
travel through this section of the state.
Those in the party here Wednesday
were G. T. Bogert, Ray Counts, F. A.

licity of same. The boosters were very
successful in their canvas down in
Kansas and one county alone--Loyan

towns along the line contributed in a
very gratifying manner Cheyenne

in proportion.

Commerce was held Tuesday evening
when several hundred dollars were
raised. T.. I. Thompson and John Bea
vers were appointed n committee TO
call ON the business men the next day

ed highway In the west.

detail rs complete as ii we had writ
ten them. You can see that all parties
between Oakley and Limon are very
enthusiastic in regard to this highway
and there is no doubt but what every
town on this highway will be benefited
by it. In our travels with these boos-
ters we only ran across two men who
fatty refused to assist in contribu-
tions, and yet they expect to share in
its benefits. We Joined the gang here
ut Cheyenne Wells Tuesday and went
to Limon, returning Wednesday even

with few exceptions, and these pla-
ces, we are promised by the commits
sioners of these respective counties,
