THE G. S. L. & H. S. RAILWAY.

vile-Cheap Coal for Salt Lake.

Will Extend to Pennington and to Coal
vine-Cheap Coal for Salt Lake.
The Great Salt Lake and Hot Springs
railway has not been idle during 1892. On
the first day of the year the rails were
little beyond Beck's Hot springs and the
road was literally ''snowed UNDER" as
the heavy storms of the last week in De-
cember had stopped all cons truction
Since then the main line has been ex-
tended to the north line OF Bountiful, to
which place the road was opened for traf-
fic on Jan. Is. This line has been a great
convenience to the people of the southern
part OF Davis county, affording them reg
ular, cheap and frequent communication
with the city, and has been well patron
lied. 1t has also been the source of a
great deal of enjoyment to the citizens OF
Salt Lake City, who desire a short ride
and change of scenery. The principal
attraction of the line this year has been
Beck's Hot springs, where the large open
air swimming pool proved great success,
and a remunerative drawing card for the
road. The manager reports 400 to ,5OO
passengers carried on some of the pleas
ant Sundays.
The road has also constructed a branch
line two miles in length, starting from
Stockdale, in the vicinity OF the new
suburb of Bonneville, and running to the
four sets of brick yards near Simklns.
This line was opened Aug. IL, and the
large amount of building which has been
in progress in Salt Lake city since that
date has stimulated the work at the brick
yards and helped on the fortunes Oh the
road not little.
1t is the intention to extend the main
line to Pennington, the county seat of
Davis county, and the necessary ties and
rails for that purpose have been purchased
and delivered on the line. The opening of
spring will see the speedy completion OF
the extension.
The recent discussion of the coal ques-
ton in Salt Lake has developed the fact
that the best route to CoaIville is via the
Great Salt Lake & Hot Springs railway.
The distance from Pennington is only
forty-six miles, and the haul for loaded
cars is all down hill, with the exception of
two small pieces of fifty-eight feet grade
1t is to be hoped that the energetic little
company will be able to solve the coal
question and get a supply OF cheap fuel
into the city before another year.
The road presents the pleasant record OF
not having killed or seriously injured
single person during the year. 1t has, how
ever, not been without its trials and trlo-
ulations. The original scheme mad been
merely for a dummy line to the Hot
springs, and the franchise was obtained
accordingly. When it was determined to
extend the road into Davis county, and
bring in building material in large guam
tiuies. a regular steam franchise was
asked for, which was vigorously opposed
in some quarter, and the city council was
the scene of many wordy combats on the
subject. :,
The amended franchise was finally
passed, and the dummy line" IS now
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1892-12-24

done two years ago, and 1t now has a
roadbed and equipment excelled by no
other line.
The Sanpete valley line, thirty two
miles in length, uniting the towns of
Nephi and Chester, was built in 1882 for
the transportation of coal. 1t was g
narrow gauge line. Business when it
expected did not materialize, and after
ten years of hard, uphill work, its man
agement could obtain no more money to
keep it going and recently the lire was
abandoned.
Then came the Utah Central and Salt
Lake & Fort Douglas railways, known as
the John w. Young system, which were
opened to Park City on May 1, 1890. 1t
is also narrow-gauge line.
The Great Salt Lake d hot Springs line
was built in 1891, and was extended fur
ther northward the past year.
The last venture is the Saltair railway,
construction of which was begun the past
year and completed to Saltair Beach, which
it is presumed, will be extended to the
Deep Creek mining country, and
ultimately to Los Angeles.
This in brief is condensed history OF
railroad building in Utah. Most of the
lines mentioned have been absorbed by
the Union Pacific and Rio Grande sys-
tens, both of which companies have
built branches and spurs until now the
aggregate mileage in the territory is
about one thousand five hundred, or al
most as many miles of railroad as there
was in the whole United States fifty years
ago.
In this connection it might be well to
make a comparison of the mileage of rail-
roads in the United States by decades be-
ginning with 1880 when the mileage was
but thirty two In 1910 it was 2S1S; in
1850, 9O21; in 1860, 80 ,626; in 1870, 81, 922;
in 1880, 9S, 296; in 1890, 1862 ,476. Further,
it might be said that in the United States
there are in round numbers 30, 900 loco
motives, q, 0O0 passenger cars, 1000 bag
gage, mail and express cars, and 1. 007 200
freight cars. Twenty-Five million tons of
coal are consumed by the locomo-
tives in the United States, and a
modern, fuil-size locomotive can be built
and has been built in less than seventeen
hours.

similar track tangles in the United
states, one in California and the other in
Colorado. Out of this canyon labyrinth,
the line energies in the far-famed Tintic
mining camp; and, just on beyond that,
will doubtless ere long rush its iron horse
into the newly discovered Deep Creek
bonanza region, whose richness is at
tracing widespread attention.
''Springville, where this depression left
the main line, is shade embowered city
of 3 800 population, surrounded by re-
gion as rich and productive as the sun

prepared to take the place among the
regular railroads in the service of the
city. The new franchise looks toward an
extension west toward Deep creek, and
the company has already made a survey
to the various mining camps and selected
their line, which is laid out with the idea
of it eventually becoming q through
route to San Francisco. While fully ap-
preaciating the Importance of this west
ern line, the company states freely that
it Will be impossible to operate it success
fully until the coal mines are first
reached and suitable supply of fuel ar
ranged for, as there is no coal between
this city and San Francisco.

Purcell's wife was literally ''the death

and in spite of her circumstances per-
sisted in spending the evenings in jovial
company. One night the exasperated
woman locked him out; he came home
t1psy, sat down on the step and fell
asleep. A storm came on, he got wet,
fell into fever and died.

The foe OF natural grace and beauty
T. the road commissioner, whose mistak-
en- zeal is allowed annually 10 remove

outline Of the road along its untrodden
borders aud cutters. This is an expen-
siye process and wholly unnecessary,
since adding 10 the dust capacity of the
street is the only service it accomplishes,
the short, thick turf affording no OBJ
IIruction 10 carriage wheels. This Is
called cleaning up the street, when,
as matter of fact, it only adds to its
dirt.
But a worse phase Of the cleaning mp
mania is apparent when the jealous
commissioner proceeds To remove from
the banks Of the highway what he terms
weeds-namely, the graceful mantle of
vegetation with which nature ever
seeks TO conceal the wounds which man
has made. IL is interesting To watch
the process by which the devastations Of
the road cutter are tempered TO the eye
by the beautiful natural screen of vines
and heritage, which, if let alone, will
soon cover the rough unsightly place
