An Enterprising Scheme.
The matter of organizing a system
for conveying registrars to one of the
stations for the opening of the Wind
River reservation, June 15, has been
presented to the Republican and this
paper has no hesitancy in commending
it to the enterprising people of this
community.
The plan as mentioned is for all who
have teams here to pool them and advertise that those who want to go to
those points from Rawlins will find
means of transportation here. A fee
of about $20 could be charged for the
round trip, each outfit requiring about
nine days. Thus each team could make
two trips during the period of registration and in that way 300 people could
be easily accommodated.
