Many Strangers

During the past week our little
city has been crowded with
strangers who are here with the
intention of locating permanently
and some investing their surplus
capital in Cheyenne county lands.
To our way of thinking, a man
with little surplus money can
do no better than to invest it in
our lands as it is one of the
surest things on earth today.
Another good looking proposition
to us is the fact that our little
city l. short about one hundred
good dwelling houses and a man
who wants some easy money on
his investment can surely pick it
up in this way. Bring in your
subscriptions fellers and we'll
build five or six anyway.
