Go TO Il. M. Kahn's for your spring suits


1t is matter of great interest to many
to know the route on which the Texas
& Pacific is to be run on its progress west.
We have sought to ascertain the facts and
can say, with An assurance of verify, as de-
monstrated by the contracts already let, that
from Weatherford the road will run south
westerly until it reaches point in Eastland
county, at or near which the extension of the
Waco extension of the Texas Central will
unite with the great line on the march west
ward. By this survey, as established
by actual contracts the road will
cross the Brazos river on the nineteenth mile
from Weatherford. The point of crossing is
little below tie mouth of Palo Pinto creek !;
thence bearing little less south, but still in
clining south little, the road enters East
land county, and thence on towards the west
until the much famed and luxurious valley of
the Fl Paso is reached on tho Rio Grsnde.
Beyond that point the people of Texas are
not particularly interested. From this brief
sketch, men acquainted with topography of
the country, can decide for themselves.
