Value of Narrow Gauge Railroads
Is Shown By Experience.


To those who have any doubts about
narrow gauge railways we commend the
following extracts from letter written
from Denver, Colorado, and published in
one Of the Memphis papers on the l4th
oil last mouth The writer has no con-
nection with railroads, and has no inter
est in stating any thing but the truth.
This is what be says:
I'VE spent a week at Idaho Springs,
near Georgetown, forty FIVE miles from
this place We went OPP by the way of
the narrow gauge railway TO Black Hawk,
and by stage the balance Of the trip.
The trip up the mountains is one of Un>
uSal interest The road runs up the line
of Clear Creek canon with a grade OF
fICO hundred and eighty feet to the mile
tor a greater portion of the route. The
scenery along the road is perfectly grand.
The road bed is cut out from the side of
the mountain, and oftentimes the tourist
is filled with terror as he gazes out upon
one side deep down into the yawning
cEasm several hundred feet below him,
and upon the other side on solid walls of
OyerhanCing stone several hundred feet
high. The train seems to be hung IN
II id air. This route leads to one of the
most charming watering places in Ans
erica-ldahO Springs situated $4,000
feet above the level of tie sea and upon
the mountain tops"
Can any bread gauge road perform
these wonders with so much ease and
safety
Again the writer says:
Cor trip from Denver to Pueblo was
made upon the Denver and Rio Grande
narrow gauge railroad, and the perfect
success of this road ought to be an en-
enlargement to our southern people to
build this kind Of road, as they are so
much cheaper in every respect than
broad gauge and answer the demands of
trade fully as we'll
Those who will not believe this testi-
mopy will believe nothing, and are as
stubborn as a donkey, and just about as
reasonable

WELL SAID.-The appeal of last Sun,
day had this to say about our narrow
gauge railroad:
Ere long we expect to gee delivered
daily in this city by the Memphis and
Knoxville narrow gauge railroad, iron
and coal, marble and cement, cedar and
lime, from these counties, whose wealth
in these articles, though yet undevelOped,
is pronounced inexhaustible. Soon the
Memphis and Knoxville railroad, under
its present vigorous and successful man
agement, will be completed from Bolivar
to Henderson Station, and thence on to
these rich mineral sections it will be
speedily push ed. The completion of this
road from Bolivar to Memphis will then
become a necessity, and with direct rail-
road connection Memphis will command
the cotton, bacon, and mineral wealth Of
the richest section of the State, and take
fresh start as great commercial and
manufacturing city.
