But in three weeks it had blos- somed into a regular town.
Now part of its people were moving along, to tag the pay-car. These were the saloon-keepers, gamblers, and speculators, in haste to fleece the railroad workers.
The track men and the graders got three dollars a day, which meant rich picking for people bent upon selling nothing for something.
The land agents of the railroad company had selected the site for the next terminus town. Evidently it was across from old Julesburg, for this even...ing lights beamed out, in a great cluster, up the grade, where the "Hell on Wheels," as the wrathful Pat Miles had dubbed it, was settling down like a fat spider weaving a web.
In the morning there was revealed the tents set up, and the board shanties going up — a mass of whity-brown and dingy dun, squatted upon the gravelly landscape on the railroad side of the river.
Several graders had been killed, in shooting scrapes; the night at new Julesburg had been a wild one; the track-layers who were anxious to spend their money waxed impatient to arrive.
