Forbes News on Railway League and local council actions
Public meeting under the Farmers and Settlers Association leads to a Railway League push for a Forbes Stockinbingal light line on the Cootamundra Temora route. Jemalong Shire sets 1907 rate, appoints clerk and engineer, and calls a special meeting to elect a new president. Harvest yields are low, averaging two bags per acre, while Alderman Rath is elected mayor. Wild duck shooting boosts local sport with a party near Tomanbil tallying over 600 birds.
