A railway along the great canyon ot tue Colorado rIver, whose walls in some places rise thousands of feet above the water, is the most striking of the numerous railway projects of the year, says the Las Vegas Optic. Among the advantages claimed by the projectors are that the grade will be enly about five feet to the mile com pared with grades of seyentyfve to one hundred feet which other rail- ways to the Pacific coast have to en- counter; that the road will open up "the greatest scenic route in the world, will develop a country pos sesssd of ineAhauStibIe deposits of the base and preGeus metals. stone, lime, salt, forests and grazrng land, will have no snow to trouble 1t and will have water running past every foot oi it; that all freights will be delivered to it on a down grade and that no read can parallel 1t within several hundred miles on the east and west. With these and other advantages claimed the proposed Denver, Cobra. do Canon < Pacific railroad enterprise certainly has unusual claims to attan' ton. Tho road IS projected te run near Grand Junction Tn western Col. orado to San Diego on the California coast, distance stated at 1,050 miles
 of which about 200 miles lie in the Grand canyon. It IS said that not more than score of people have ever gone through the canyon, several lives having been lost in the attempt, and the question whether railway could ss built there even if the money were forthcoming has yet to be solved.
