ka, the point in view for a coming sea-
port. BY branch road from Fall
River Mills to Wadsworth, a distance
of us miles and the nearest point on
the Central Pacific, it would put north
ern California in direct connection with
the eastern roads. Then the great
forests of Eureka county would make
one of the greatest lumber industries
in the world
Wadsworth is centered in a group of
three river basins with eastern and
western passes.
Should the Eureka and Northern
road people have in view trans con-
tinenta line Wadsworth IS sure TO be
the chosen point A route from
Wadsworth east across the center Of
Nevada would be by far the most di-
rect and in every way practical in this
connection, opening up district after
district Of farming. mining and stock
raising territory through Nevada and
Utah, besides offering a route several
hundred miles shorter and in mod
crate climate.
Whether either proposition is con-
sidered or not, they are both practical
