Under these favoring auspices very gratifying
progress has been made in extending the railroad
track from both directions Nearly 1000 miles
Of the Main Line and converging Branches DO
tween the Missouri River and the base of the
Rocky Mountains have been built within three
years. The CENTRAL Pacific RAILROAD has
also steadily and successfully carried the Main
Stem Line from the steamboat navigation of the
Pacific To the summit of the Sierra Nevada, and
into the Great Salt Lake Basin east OF the Cali.
iornia line. Having overcome by far the most
difficult and expensive portion of the whole
line, the probabilities of the through connection
with tho Eastern lines being effected in ls1U
amount almost To certainty.
