ush to the KIOndike

The railroads are confidently expecting q
big rush of travel to the Klondike in the
spring. 1t is estimated that fully lOO, 900 peo-
pie will attempt to reach the gold fields az
soon as the winter is over, and with de-
sire to turn a nimble penny at every oppor-
tunity trunk lines are beginning to prepare
for the expected rush. One of the first in
the field is the Baltimore 4 Ohio Railroad,
which has already begun the running Of the
through tourist car from New York City to
San Francisco without change by way Of
Philadelphia, Washington, Parkersburg and
Cincinnati, reaching st. Louis Wednesday
evening, Texarkana Thursday afternoon, FL
Paso, Texas, Friday evening and San Fran
cisco Sunday morning. This service is in ad-
dition to the one provided by the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad from Pittsburgh by way of
Cincinnati and the Illinois Central to New
Orleans and the Southern Pacific through to
the coast, the Pittsburgh car leaving every
Wednesday. The New York car on its re-
turn leaves San Francisco Monday evening,
and the Pittsburgh afleaves on Thursday.

what noe. Thi. Meant

A perusal of the history of railway tEsns
actions dunng the past four years shown
us that this period has been the most dis
astrous, from a financial standpoint, of any
other of the presf I decade. Under the
circumstances it would almost seem -
though the further development or i'm
provement of railway facilities must cease.
Yet, strange to say, many notable instances
prove that the contrary is true. In numer-
Gus instances frst-class roads, despite the
itard times and general business depres-
sion, have made very decided advances, not
only in the Improvement OF the material
condition of the roadway itself, but like
wise the equipment and service: And the
public has been a great gamer by the pub
lie spiritedness Of the roads.
One OF the most notable cases OF rail-
way development is the Nickel Plate Road,
which seems to have forged right ahead
with its improvements and has exhibited
an unrelenting determination to give the
public the best possible facilities, in spite
Of the hard times. And how well this cor
poration has succeeded in its laudable ef-
forts, the excellent condition of its system
bears ample evidence. Yet the secret OF
this success is obvious. The people have
responded very generously to a generous
effort to give them the worth of their
money. That is all. The peoples money
has enabled the road to better its facilities
in every respect; thus the work has been
Of mutual and reciprocal character. The
liberal patronage accorded the road has
brought handsome return to the people
in the shape of improved facilities for
travel, yet at the same time at lower rates.
And now, it seems, the Nickel Plate Road
is still engaged in further efforts to serve
the people well. 1t has high-class roadway
to begin with; most excellent equipment
to end with, and safe, fast and reliable
service for the delectation of its patrons.
All in all, it offers a most attractive menu to

that probably this hypothetical new
