description.
The train consists of three state
room cars one dining car. one obscrva-
ton car one straight sleeper. one
smoker and one baggage car. The en-
tire train is fitted with electric lights
and there is a barber shop and a bar
room in connection.

capacity of advance man to make ar
engagements for the running through
of the train. but he is waiting at some

LOOKS LIKE JEALOUSY.
The following is from the Captain
Progress: why do the Ell Paso &
~ 10 haf-
the White Oaks Route" This is mis-
White Oaks is but small
town and not on the line of road 1t
would be just as sensible to call it
"The Jake's Spring Route" the Three
Rivers Route. or the Coyote Canon
Route as all these places are directly
on the line of railroad. White Oaks
people have a right to, and do. object
TO the usurping of the name of their /,
town for purposes of misrepresenta-
ton. Then again in speaking OF the
along the line of the Ell Paso
e Northeastern, writer's for the COM
oany make use of the caption: The
White Oaks Country" This, too, is
THE White Oaks Coun-
.ry," proper is very small part OF
he country traversed by this road and
embraces not to exceed thirty miles of !
and. Only one industry of all that is !
poken of existing along the line, is
ound at White Oaks-mining- The I
Methods and tactics heretofore pur-
ued relative to the use OF the words l
White Oaks and 1.-The White Oaks {
are unfair to the town or {
White Oaks, misleading to those who l
re unacquainted with the real situa-
ion and very unjust with those sec
ions which are located directly on the a
inc of road and in every way just as t
important, if not more so, in COM i
nercial way" 49,
1t is not likely that White Oaks is t
ticking about having railroad and a
section of country named after the ii
own. 1t is means by which White l
)aks gets widely extended free adver- @
ising and the town should be proud t
f the distinction. However. as 10 the n
DAD being called the White Oaks
,Oute.'' the Progress will not have to S
Torry over that much longer. for as
DON as the E. P. &. n. E. and Rock
sland extensions are completed that e
ERIN will be obsolete. The new route r
rill be called the lei Paso-Rock Island
.oute" and the Arrow Route !,
N OLD SCHEME REVIVED. n
About fifteen years ago local and
astern capitalists organized a COM
any called the Austin, Bastrop & a
razos Valley railroad company and
part of the proposed line was sur y
eyed and right of way secured. Hard
mes came on and the enterprise was f,
bandoned. The scheme has been re- w
