Senator Ashurst wanted $4,000 in

A Good Argument.

The above argument is without a
doubt "A good one. as it can be easily
estimated that the loss in taxable val
ues through abandonment of the local
railroad would undoubtedly amount to
more within n very few years han the
entire hot springs property would cost
I'm the first place. And at the reason
able terms upon which the property is
offered, it is the general opinion that
increased taxes from local property,
the income from the reserve conces-
sions and the greatly increased value
of the land which the state would own
adjoining, would make the project
an all-around good investment, aside
from the fact that the purchase Of
the property would undoubtedly do
away with the threatened junking Of
the railroad.
Hon. ii. A. Hunter has been the chief
sponsor for the proposed state reserve
here. and has been giving n great deal
of his time to the matter during the
Legislative session, and it is to be
hoped that he and his colleagues from
this county will be able to get the bill
through Mt this session. IL would
mean II great deal TO this town and
community and the outcome Of the mat
ter is awaited with great interest.

operation expenses, taxes, etc, which
would amount to a considerable outlay
if the roadbcd should be brought up
to the Union Pacific standards and
built to carry the Union Pacific loco
motives and equipment.
However, it is understood that the
owners have heretofore demanded 49,,
600, or thercabouts, per year for a
lease Of their property. which is a ri
diculous proposition in the light Of
their claims that the road is losing for
them from $1,000 to $4,000 per year
under their own operation. Equally
ridiculous is their offer to sell the road
for 100000, while at the same time
they appear anxious TO junk the whole
outfit, and are said to have admitted
that the junk value would be only
about $4,000.
1t is to be hoped that the Public
Utilities Commission or the Interstate
Commerce Commission may act as me
diator in the matter and bring about II
lease of the property at n reasonable
figure or u sale price which will not
exceed the junk value of the road.

ties Commission, first set for February
18th and later continued L the 10th.
has again been postponed. according to
word received from Attorney Arm

necessary procedure to be gone through
by the Company i'm completing their
application, the time required for ad-
vertising notice OF tie hearing. and

is as follows;
A BILL for an act entitled AN Act
to authorize the purchase by the state
Of Wyoming Of the lands containing
the Saratoga Hot Springs, situate at
or near the town of Saratoga, Carbon
county, Wyoming making appropria-
lions for the first partial payment
thereon and providing for n special tax

STATE CAN SAVE THE RAILROAD
BY BUYING SPRINGS PROPERTY
Carbon County Legislators Contend That Purchase
of Hot Springs Property by the State Would
Be Good Investment, and That Such a
Purchase Would Prevent Junk
ing of Railroad.

With only a couple of days remaining in which to
dispose OF a great bulk of proposed legislation, it is
extremely predetermined whether or not the proposal
of the Carbon County delegation that the hot
springs property at Saratoga be taken over by the
state and made into a state reserve similar to that at
T~hermopolis, will be enacted into law at this session,
but all residents of the valley are hoping for favor
able action. 1t is to be expected that there will be a
opposition to the measure on the part of
some legislators from the northern part of the state,
but it is still within the possibilities that the bill will
be enacted into law at this session.
Mondays Wyoming State Tribune had the fol
lowing to say regarding the proposal to establish a
state reserve here:
con the claim that the state NAV. if it will.
prevent the Saratoga & Encampment railroad
from being junked, as its owners now propose to
do, members of the Carbon county legislative
delegation are actively pushing their bill to have
the Saratoga hot springs and vicinity made into
a state reserve.
"These men relate that they have been as
sured that if such a reserve is created the rail
road men will abandon their present plans and
will seek to attract tourists and health seekers
and thereby place their property on a paying
basis. If the road is junked, says the delega-
ton, the valuation of the property in the Sara
toga valley WilRgo down by between three and
four million dollars, 50 that the state will lose
around $4,000 in taxes annually. But, they ar
que, if this is prevented the tax revenue to the
state will, in four years, make up for the $780,
600 appropriation they are seeking, and at the
end of the four years the state will have the hot
springs and APO acres adjoining them.
'The Carbon county men claim the springs
are superior to any other between Omaha and
Ogden, and that all they need is development, a
few improvements and publicity. If the state
will do its share, they say, outsiders will look
after the three needed factors. They further re-
late that the state could send 25 or 30 TRUSTEES
from the penitentiary to the proposed reserve
every summer and let them do something worth
while in Wyoming.
"They are not failing to point out the adj
vantages to be gained from the increase in the
number of tourists and health seekers"

somewhat in transmission, and its

surmised that the paragraph should
