Final Section to Make Transcontinental Line Complete Is Planned
Two Western Systems Will Connect at Point 150 Miles West of Denver
Dartmouth College
United States
Denver, Colorado — Forty miles of railroad to be built in the heart of the rocky mountains west of Denver mean another transcontinental railroad system for the United States.
Articles of incorporation for this new road were filled in Cheyenne, Wyoming, several weeks ago. It will correct the Denver and Rio Grande Western with the Denver and Salt Lake Western at a point on the eastern slope of the continental divide, 150 miles from Denver.
The mountain peaks between this connecting road and Denver are some of the highest in America; since railroads began to traverse the continent they have been effective barriers for rail travel. Salt Lake Town, known as the Moffat Road, was the only railroad to attempt to climb them. Or James peak, where the Moffat crosses the continental divide, 25 miles are used in spiral curves before the straight-even distance from Denver is in range.
The Denver and Rio Grande Weston, instead of climbing over the dike to Denver, crept 220 miles south through Tennessean pass to the valley of the Colorado river down through Denver, made it a way back north to Denver.
The Moffat tunnel, six miles in length, will eliminate the 23 miles over James peak, and give an abnorm direct trunk line. West of Denver, Forty miles of new track will connect the Moffat railroad with the Bic Grande, where it turns south to wind through Tennessee pass.
The Mofat tunnel and the new road will decrease the distance from Denver to Salt Lake City by 175 miles. Dangerous curves and grades over the divide will be eliminated by the Mofat tunnel, giving the nation a new, direct transcontinental line.

The popular young Californian is also making a fine name as *v* lecturer and he is doing a lot for the promotion of clean athletics by traveling around the country and coosting the game.

He smoke to 1500 men here last Sunday for an hour and they never hatted an eye. We have had at least seven men who our opinion Paddock makes the best and most helpful address to yours, men. We want him back next year and he will have an audience of 2500. I would like to contribute to the purification of a table or the planting of a tree, the man who discovered Paddock."
