:55:02
I don't mind telling you, wheeler,
:55:04
the union pacific finds the very presence
of a sinkhole like this a noxious affront.
:55:12
I'd like to see you try
to stop it, casement.
:55:15
You'd have a mutiny on your hands.
:55:17
Might be wiser for you to start
thinking of us as informal partners.
:55:21
You appropriated railroad land
:55:22
for illicit purposes and then sold it
to other speculators at 5 times its value.
:55:26
Don't bellyache to me if the union pacific
:55:29
swells couldn't see the potential
of their own right-of-way.
:55:32
Do not presume to lecture me
on what's good for the railroad.
:55:34
No. That's for you.
:55:37
You masters back east
don't need any lessons.
:55:40
Government bonds
:55:41
16,000 a mile for flatlands
graded and tracked.
:55:45
32,000 a mile for foothills,
:55:48
64,000 a mile for mountains.
:55:50
Tell me, casement,
:55:52
how many so-called mountains
:55:54
has the union pacific climbed thus far?
:55:58
Ha ha ha!
:56:01
You, sir, are a rank opportunist.
:56:07
Welcome to north platte, sir.
:56:10
King of the plains emporium
is the place for you.
:56:12
Best tables and the best liquor.
:56:13
They got the best looking women, too.
:56:15
Here, let me get that for you, sir.
:56:16
There you go.
:56:18
Give us this day our daily strangers.
:56:29
- Hey.
:56:30
- I have your britches ready.
:56:32
All right.
:56:39
You'd never even know they were ripped.
:56:40
5 cents, please.
:56:42
Almost forgot.
:56:43
Now those are getting pretty worn.
:56:44
You ought to let me make you a new pair.
:56:46
- Oh, yeah? You'd do that?
:56:47
- Yeah.
:56:48
I'd like that.
:56:49
I'll have to measure you.
:56:52
Step right up.
:56:59
Ow!
