ARE LAYING TRACK.
San Pedro Gangs Also Putting Down
Ties and Rails on Grade.


Uvada, Utah, April 2a,--The expert
ment OF two powerful rival corporations
engaging to build o railroad on the
same grade and az the same time Is
now In course OF solution here. Both
the Oregon Short Line and San Pedro,
Los Angeles aud Salt Lake are dilieent-
" pushing their work with large force
OF men. The former are distributing
ties and laying steel at the rate OF
about o mile day, and the latter have
al least l50 MEN ana tools strung over
distance Of thirty or forty miles IN
advance on the grade, about three miles
OF rails will bring the Oregon Short
Line track up to the line where the San
Pedro men are In possession, and have
o net work Of barbed wire and other
distractions with force Of men 10 i'm
pede farther progress when that point
is reached. While the Clark men are
In possession Of principally all the old
grade ON both the main line and the
Phoebe Branch, and have stretches Of
Ties and rails down in several places
the Oregon Short Line hold one Of the
tunnels and Joint possession of Others
and have hauled ties and rails 10 one
end and laid track at each entrance
Good feeling exists among the men gem
orally and the chance for serious trou-
Ole appears quite cemote. The only
antagonlsm apparent Is against the
Japs who are engaged principally at
track laying, ana II they are not brought
TO the front, blOodshed is scarcely ap.
pretended A few days viii solve the
problem, which II Is hoped will be a
peaceable solution, as q serious conflict
would settle nothing.

HOW A YOUNG FATHER FEELS

And yet, while there Il guilt written
all over your face there wells up In your
heart a Veritable fountain of Intense

10 the first moment OF confidence.
You assume n careless devil-may-

TIE "sAN Pedro"
Suggested Short and Eupboh'ops
Name for the Clark Railroad.

Already the residents OF Southern

grounds that considerable valuable
time Is wasted IN both speaking and
writing when the term san Pedro, Los
Angeles & Salt Lake Railway company
Is used As solution OF this difficulty
the Los Angeles Express has the fol-
lowing to say editorally In regard to
the much yexed topic.
Several months ago the Express took
occasion 10 point out an impending
dlaiculty to result from calling the long
Anticipated Salt Lake road the San
Pedro, Los Angeles salt Lake rail,
way. At that time the suggestion was
made that the new line must have some
name for "shOrt"~-somethlng euphonl,
Gus, which would at the same time not
be so suggestive Of certain localties as
to create pangs OF Jealousy in the
bOsoms Of other localities.

Salt Lake. There was also vice versa
