While providing for the railroad south,
the directors have by no means forgotten

road.
It has seemed necessary to secus one at
a time, but the importance of the EnpOria
road has never been overlooked. Just
now there is high appreciation Of Kan.

Company has made proposals for the con-
struction of the Emporia branch. At the
last meeting of the directors authority
vas given TO Mf. Stnrges to complete con-
tracts to secure the building of this road
at the earliest possible period, and he be
lieved, from what had previously been
proposed, ,thatnthere could be no doIbt
that satisfactory negotiations could be
effected. ..--'. e,....l,
This Emporia road is one of tie high
est importance to Lawrence. With the
road south We have through route to the

Il is no ohimeta to believe that this road

surpassed in richness, within perhaps as
few years as it will take to construct the
road from the Missouri river to the Pacific.

prophesy, hardly yet realize the rapid adj
