For some weeks past vague ru-
mors have been ahoat in this section
in regard to changes to be made on
the C. & C. railroad, but it is now
definitely announced from head
quarters that the Central Pacific Co.
has purchased the G. & C. road.
This move has been made to give
the Central Pacific a shorter route
to Los Angeles from Ogden. 1t is
reported that the G. q c. will be
extended south to Mojave, and from
that point to point near Fort
Churchill, this county, the road
will be broad gagged. From
Churchill the road is to be extended
To Wadswor,h To connect with the
G. p. at that point This will give
the G. p. a much shorter route to
Los Angeles than by way of San
Francisco.
There are also rumors to the eff
feet that the V. g. 7. road and the
N. c. o., running out of Reno, north,
have been absorbed by the C. P. Co.
and that the V. " L. is to be cut
down too narrow euage, or third
rail laid from Reno to Virginia City.
If this is the case i, will give the
G. P. Co. a direct line from Oregon
to Arizona. What effect these
changes, and rumored changes will
have on this immediate vicinity re-
mains to be seen, but it does not
seem that it will be detriment. In
fact, there is no doubt that the
change will be great benefit to the
country lying between this place
and Mojave. Surveyors are now at
work on the extension of the e. &
G. from Keller to Moiave.
