At' present, Vegas is on a long line of rail way extending front Salt Lake to Lo Angeles. practically without fc. Jers, depending upon local and through traffic fot its maintanacce. It it evi dent that no railway is going to_long neglect the traffic gatherers and commerce Siouti ^svlstcTi i bring it trade from far beyond its trunk line route, over branches, generally run in conformity to the country's typography. Thus early in its life we see the Clark road reaching out for trade that can o-ily be gained by en tering into traffic arrangements with these railway building miners, which Is to bring 'hem to the main line her®. We say Fra die arrangements, as no one doubt® that Clark and Harriman are behind this new deal which has turned the Fora any mm if® 1 oft surveved lines through the mown i tains of Ssn Bernadino. The sandy • wastes and batti ng hills cf which are the despair of railroad men. The na tural route is in gently sloping val ay 's through low and intercept*trie -psssee leading frdm Vegas to Death valley, where are located the Borox company s deposits of borate of time.

Vegas will grow as Spokane ’ did. on the trade brought in by branch I lines from the mines, with the miner’s pay day checks for speuding money. Here will come the boys whose easy jobs have piled their dollars so high,, that they must necessarily In' est them fn some of the good things only to be had on the main line. A .location ea a trunk line is like a store on New \ ork’s Broadway, every body wants to see it.
