of that Itoad.
"We have men In the held surveying a
line into the basin from the south. The
road is being built from Woiiand to Fran
nle. We have the line mapped out on to
Tliermopolis from Worland. are still work
ing with just as large a force as we did
have on the North Platte extension to
Northport and have ubaudoued no plans
which we announced some time ago," said
General Manager Holdrege of the Bur
lington in response to an Inquiry as to
whether his road was to abandon some
of its projects in Wyoming.
Tills query was brought forth by a re
port from Denver that the Burlington
would not build through to Halt Ijike City,
as that town was considered a Cnlon Pa
cific point. It was said an agreement -had
been reached whereby the Burlington was
to Hbnndnn Its line to Salt Ike if the
Cnlon Pacific would abandon Its line to
Saratoga and Colorado and also to Lander.
The report also said that the Cnlon Pa
rlflc had abandoned its plan for building a
line from Wnlcott to Saratoga and Kn
campment and that the Cnlon Pacific und
the Saratoga, Wyoming r.ave reached an
agreement whereby the latter will be built,
with the t'nion Pacific having traffic rights
over It. To this Genera! Manuger Mohler
said:
"Mr. Hill has not bought the Cnlon Pa
cific and our men are still at work on this
road, so it docs not look like we had aban
doned It."

Racked l Barllnglou.
The Saratoga Sr Wyoming is supposed to
be backed by the Burlington and Is part of
a road known as the Denver, Yellowstone
Pacific and it Is said this road will be
built on into tlie Yellowstone, but as to
this General Manager Holdrege disclaimed
any knowledge.
Mr. Mohler says that the report that he
recently had n conference with J. M.
HiMimey, the artfve head of the Saratoga St
Wyoming and agreed to withdraw his men
from the held and give way to tlie Saratoga
& Wyoming. U wrong, as his men are
still at work. The report also said the
Cnlon Paclllc had turned over to the Sara
toga tt- Wyoming some of its right-of-way
and thai In return the Saratoga tt Wyom
ing will give the Cnlon Puciflc a large
share of its east and west business.
It Is claimed with the Cnion Pacific now
out of the field the Saratoga tc Wyoming
will now build from the Moffat road on the
south from Denver, through Fort Collins,
north from Wolcott on the Cnion Pacific
to Yellowstone Pnrk. This is strictly a Hill
line, as the Burlington Is back of It.

W. H. Cowgill, a prominent land owner of

arranging with the railroads to send a few
more settlers to some of the "richest land
on the face of the earth."
"We have land In both Phelps and Harlan
coursty and lucky was the man who bought
land there three years ago, when we, were
nut looking for Bcttlers." he says, "land
which was then sold for J20 an acre Is now
held at $75, which is not a bad Investment
for three years. During thn past two years
our firm alone has sold over 20D farms to
settlers In these two counties and this
spring over lO.Ocfl acres of virgin soil will
be called upon to yield forth a crop for the
first time. We do not need Irrigation as
the rainfall has been sufficient for years
without a crop failure.
"We will have a large acreage of winter
wheat and the weather and moisture for
this could not have been made better fo
order. As soon as the winter Is safely
passed all this acreage of wheat will In
crease In value at least 13 an acre. There
la plenty of land to be had at reasonable
figures and the newly created land depart
