Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineer

Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
Once year the locomotive engineers OF
the country meet together in convention TO
discuss matters relative to their calling This
year they meet in San Francisco, and being
a body of men who, when on vacation, wish
to make the most of il in the way of recrea-
ton and comfort. they naturally choose the
route to their ting place. which guaran-
tees them greatest immunity from danger
and the most facilities for sight seeing and
enjoyment en- voyage.
They have an open credit with the railroads
for all lines transport them free of charge,
hence their choice is voluntary act upon
their part. This year the great bulk of the
fraternity chose the Great Rock Island Route
and were carried towards the Occdent in
half a dozen of the magnificent new Pullman
cars, for which this great route is noted.
They chose wisely and well, since they
passed over a road with the smoothest OF
track, through a country of surprising fertil-
! ity and loveiness, and while journeying ate
the best viands the market afforded, cooked
and served in the very best manner, and al
night slept in the most luxurious sleeping
/ cars to be found in the United States.
true engineer is Observant and quick to
discern danger. There is nothing needless
or reckless in the composition of the Knights
of the FoOt-board, hence their choice on the
! Rock Island route, was a compliment and a
testimonial from men best qualified to judge
that they believe that the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific Railway combines in its
road-bed, equipment and management, all
the qualities that makes a railway worthy the
patronage of the public.

A GREAT COUNTRY.

Dearborn an illustrated Journal, the
West Shore. bearing date June. 1884,
devoted to "the development OF the
Great West" Mr.. Dearborn has for a
long time been an enthusiast in respect
10 the possibilities of the distant North

merous illustrations of the city OF Sc
attic in this magazine without seeing
that his enthusiasm haa substantial
basis. Il seems but few short years
since We read of this entire region as
the abode of savages, less intelligent
even than the aborigines OF the country
farther east. But now we are shown
pictures of beastiful public buildings OF
which any city might be proud, elegant
residences Of prosperous citizens which
will vie with the best to be found IN
the land. and views OF natural seen
cry grand beyond description. The let
ter press description bears out the prom
Use of the artist, and the information
given confirms the impression that Sc
atsle and its vicinity must be a favorable
location for energetic young men who
desire an opportunity to grow up with
the country" Some OF the statistics OF
the business transacted along Puget
Sound are startling in their magnitude ;
as for instance, the statement that ae-
cordinp to the estimate of timber men
"there are l60, 000, 0O0, 600 feet Of stand
ing timber in the Puget Sound region.
and the mills last year cut OO,0OO, 900
feet. At this rate it weuld take $40
years to exhaust the supply" Here
certainly seems to be most inviting

home in the West, and we have NO doubt

further information on the subject TO
