prospects for this being live railway
center. that one OF the needs Of the day,
before it became matter OF greater dif-
fculty, was to secure union depot, in
which all roads would have common
interest and where people could go to
take trains instead Of to separate depots
as at present. Aside from the great
convenience to the travelling public, the
importance of such movement to the
roads themselves is matter well worth
considering. 1t would be much easier
and cheaper to secure such facilities at
this time than alter the city has doubled
in population. Il will have to come
sooner or later, as it does in all railroad
centers, and one or two of the roads
have already had the question under
consideration.
