Tho New Railroad to San Francisco.
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
Railway Co. has completed an extern
sion Of their route to San Francisco,
and opened 1t up recently for
passenger business. opening for
freight business having been made
several weeks ago. Heretofore,
San Francisco and the other cities
Of central California have been con-
nected with the east by only one trans
continental Line, and the entry Of the
Santa Fe route to compete for public
patronage may be expected to result
in much better freight and passenger
transportation for those cities. The
Santa Fe road is now the only railroad
under one ownership and management
all the way from Chicago to San Fran
cisco.

Couldn't you have used a better
word than stretched Say the floral
display nodded or 'twined,' or some
