Pacific WAGON Road,

Ii the press generally would take up the
scheme, Congress would be compelled, by
the force Of pubic opinion, to authorize it
the next session. Desirable as Pacific
Eailroad Is, twenty years must pass before
one can be constructed but Wagon
Road could be made in year or two, and,
made, four -ffihs from the Atlantic States
would pass over it. Such a road, more
over, would create settlements along its
whole line; population, by natural law,
would gradually extend backwards, on
either side, from these settlements, and
thus continuous strip of cultivated eoun-
Try in a very few years, and long before
the adjacent prairies generally could be
i9habited, would stretch from the western
frontier to San Francisco. This fertile
and popu,eus strip would, by that time,
furnish local traffic which would mate
rally assist to sustain a Paciic Railroad :;
while the security it would afford for the
construction OF tie road, and the resources
1t wou.G supp. } in case Of accidents or
other detentions, after the trains began to
luu, woald be practically of incaculaLle
value. \ wagon Road 10 the Pacific is
needed, not only as an indispensable pre-.
l!!ninary to Railroad, but as a means Of
transit in the interval that necessarily mus.
,lapse before railroad can be built. For
these reasons, VIC trust that the press gem
orally will urge on Congress the speedy
constitution Of wagon road. 1t i. meas
ure in which all can join. Those who
doubt the feasibility OF Pacific railroad,
as we'll as those who arc Immediately in
favor Of that project, can unite heartily in
favor Of wagon road. TIE Customs col
lecisd in single year at California. would
PROBABLY pay for such road. Finally,
