LIONS CLUB PASS RESOLUTIONS

Whereas. The United States Re-
clamation Service and the State OF
Wyoming have during the summe
Of 1921 been engaged In making a
survey Of the Upper Platte River
Valley and especially two units of the
North Platte River Project in Car
bon County, Wyoming which have
been outlined as especially feasible,
and
Whereas, Said survey has shown
that the Pass Creek unit will re-
claim approximately forty thousand
acres and the Big Creek unit will re-
claim approximately forty-five thou
sand acres of arid lands in Carbon
County. Wyoming, and
Whereas, 1t Is reported that the
estimates of the cost Of constructing
said project and putting the water

fifty dollars an acre, and
Whereas, II said estimates are cor

for less than one-half the cost of any
other project that the Reclamation
Service has heretofore constructed or
has under contemplation. and

Railroad Company, to the Town of

through the entire length of said
proposed project, and
Whereas, Recently at Torrington,
Wyoming, a Reclamation Project was
opened for settlement and the land
was over-subscribed three times by
ex-soldiers alone. who desired to
take up and purchase said lands at
a cost of approximately One Hundred
Dollars per acre., and
Whereas, A thorough investigation
of the North Platte River Project
has shown that the project is feas-

Now. Therefore. Be 1t Resolved,

Of the United States OF America that
sufficient funds be appropriated at
this session for the construction of
the North Platte River Project by

Senators and Congressman be urged
to exert all the influence they have,
to obtain favorable recommendations
from the heads OF the Department,

RAWLINS IN 1922

The New Year holds so much in promise already for the
State at large and Rawlins in particular that it is going to be a
task to decide just what is best to take first. The importance of
Wyoming to the world at large is well illustrated by the revenues
received from its natural resources. The principal revenue, of
course, is derived from minerals, petroleum and it's by products,
being Is per cent of the whole; agriculture 20 per cent, livestock
10 per cent and manufacturing 5 per cent. A grand total of
S235, OO0.OOOOO was received from all sources.
1.-The World is beating a path to Wyoming because it has
discovered resources not dreamed of a decade ago. With due re
gard for the great potential value of the oil and gas industry of
Wyoming, the coal, clays, lime and shales spell more for the indus
trial up building of the state than does petroleum. A hundred will
be employed in these to one in oil, and that means population.
Better and more enduring than these is the agricultural possibil-
tiles of Wyoming. With a mere handful of land compared with
the whole now under water, the agricultural output of the State
in 1921 was s51, 739. O5O.O0. Herein lies the future greatness of
WYOMING. The securing Of So. TAO, 100000 by Congressman Mon
dell for three Wyoming irrigation projects is a tribute to his
wisdom and foresight that the future settlement and development
of irrigable lands will forever testify to.
Rawlins is perhaps more favored than our people realize. We
are in the midst of the States richest resources. Much revenue
is derived from the oil and gas fields. Rich grazing lands are
everywhere. Immense irrigable areas are nearby and slated to
come under the government canals. We have iron, coal. clays,
limestone and great quaries of building material. We have a
Board of Trade that is going after factories and a gas line for
the city. We are on the main line of the greatest railroad in the
nation; have rich prospects of an electric line from Rawlins to
Sheridan-why should Rawlins not become the largest city in
the state?

OF the nature Of the country through
which it passes. Wyoming has beon

It is evident that the cutoff would

America. 1t also has been the most

a doubt in the readers mind about
what the U. P. officials will do?
The Union Pacific has already
shortened its road as originally built
about forty-five miles by the elimi-

rebuilding when the line was being
double tracked; 80 per cent OF which
Is now completed. Such work covers
a period Of years and no doubt this
policy will be continued in further
extension, branch lines and better
mentS.
The towns. cities and country
along the old as we'll as the new
lines will be immensely benefited by
the building Of the cutoff. Adequate
train service would continue over the
old line, but by reason of the greater

UNLIMITED RESOURCES AWAIT CAPITAL

For the past few months we have been calling the attention
of our readers almost every week to the immensely of the gas
fields north of Rawlns and their possible economic value to the
city. The Republican has for months been in possession of con-
fidential information regarding the gas situation. 1t has ex-
pressed its view as strongly as possible without breaking faith
with our informant. With the authorized Denver announcement
appearing elsewhere in this issue, perhaps our readers will ap-
preciate our insistent effort to awaken the town to the necessity
of bringing a service gas line into Rawlins. With a full dozen
raw products in the way of minerals and clays at our very door
awaiting conversion into articles and material to supply an ever
ready and unlimited market. Rawlins must now buckle down to
the real work of interesting men and capital to build factories and
make Rawlns an industrial city.
