The improvements that have
been made during the past few
years in its track, roadbed, bridges,
trestles, tunnels, ETC., have vir-
tually made a new road of the

has been widened, trestles filled
in, new and heavier steel rails laid,
grades cut down, wooden bridges
replaced by steel ones, curves tax
en- out, tunnels lined with brick
and concrete, and improvements
made wherever possible. Hun
dreds of thousands of dollars were
spent in this way during 1898 be-
sides large sums in previous years.
New and mammoth locomotives
capable of drawing the heavy
trans-continental passenger trains
at seventy-fve miles per hour
when necessary, have been bought
Progress and advancement have

Such a road. SOLID, SMOOTH, SAFE,
