F. R. Curran returned on Monday from the B. & M. coal camp and Sundance, reporting much snow at Sundance and fair activity at the coal camp. He proposes to open a pioneer saloon near the coal camp in a few days. The new town is suggested to be named Burlington, with Curran's saloon as the initial building, though others are contemplated. It will be a temporary 'go as you please' town with movable buildings, managed peculiarly like western railroad camps, to relocate to the permanent town established by the B. & M. Railroad company.
