A Beaverhead club mass meeting in Dillon eyed a terminal for the Gilmore & Pittsburg Railway with Armstead to Dillon. Attorney John R. Wheeler said a $10,000 Dillon subscription would likely secure the line here, and Gov. White pledged 10 percent. A committee started soliciting pledges, with early sums reported and a plan to raise at least $12,000 to guarantee completion and financing.
