THE EAILEOAD MEETING.
The meeting held at the Knights
of Pythias hall Tuesday afternoon
for the purpose of discussing- the
construction of a railroad from
North Platte to the Wyoming line
was attended by about 150 delegates
and citizens.
The meeting was called to order
by Judge Grimes, vho stated the
object of the gathering, and latter
the Judge was selected chairman
arid Lester Eells secretary.
J. M. Kerr, the New York attor
ney who represents eastern capital
ists, was called upon and made a
statement as to what would be re
quired of the people along the line
of the proposed road before they
could get capitalists interested in
the project. It would be necessary
to have a preliminary survey made,
the right-of-way secured and the
road bed constructed. If the
citizens of the section through
which the proposed line passed
would perform this work, and also
present facts and figures showing
that the road would pay the interest
on the money to be invested, Mr.
Kerr said there would be little dif
ficulty in securing the money with
which to complete the road ready
for operation. The capital needed
to build the line is estimated at
$1,500,000.
