II is an extension to an extension for
which the road already holds a fran
chise. The original petition was for an
extension through the towns of Farm
ers, Mill Creek, Murray, Big Cotton
wood and Granger. The Consolidated
Railway & Power company recently
asked for a franchise which covered
practically the same territory that the
Suburban company wants to cover. In
the new territory for which the COM
pany has just been granted a franchise,
the tracks parallel those of the Utah
a. Salt Lake Valley Railroad company
for one and one-half miles.
The petition is for an extension from
the State road along Winchester road
to highway No. 13, past the Highland
Boy smelter at Murray and to the
Bingham Gold & Copper company S
plant at Bingham Junction. The usual
bond of $4,000 is eXacted. 1t is under
stood that work on the extension will
be commenced at once. Electricity is
to be the motive power, and the work
will be hurried forward as fast as pos
sible. Car service has been one of the
hopes of the people living along the line
of the proposed route, and those inter
ested are much pleased with the pros
pect of an early realization of the plans
of the company.

HAS COUNTRY DOG NO RIGHTS
THAT CITY Is BOUND TO RESPECT?

The right of the city dog catcher to
impound a country canine which has
followed its master into the city and
is playing around the farm wagon
waiting for the owner to complete his
business and return home is a question
which was submitted to the county at
torney's Office yesterday by Dave Grif-
fifth. The dog catcher was instructed
to call upon the city attorney, but he
had left the joint building for the day.
About. noon Griffith noticed a dog
playing in the streets, which had
neither collar nor tag. A few minutes
later the canine was introduced to a
lot of homeless pups who were riding
around town in the dog catcher's
wagon. Just about that same time the
owner of the dog came out of the store
where he was doing some trading. and
saw his pet yanked up by the neck at
one end of a piece of wire, and thrown
into the wagon without much cere-
mOny.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1902-08-24

The farmer explained to the dog
catcher that he lived in the country;
that he had just come to town to do a
little trading; was soon going home;
that his dog had followed him into the
city, and would follow him back in a
few minutes, if he were released The
dog catcher could not see il in that
light, and so told the countryman.
They finally agreed to lay the matter
before the county authorities, and
County Attorney Christensen was
called upon.
Just at that time the latter was hard
at work upon political matters up
town, and his assistant declined to
solve the problem, on the ground that
it was a city matter. As the city at
torney could not be found, the dog
catcher and his companion left the
building in quest of other legal author
tiles. Later il was learned the country
pup was released, upon the assurance
of the owner that he would take the
dog straight home with him.

STRAIGHT. BUT CROOKED.
A Term Which Made the Kansas City
Southern Famous.


There is an interesting story con-
nected with the expression straight as
the crow flies" a term that has been
used to advertise the Kansas City
Southern. In spite of the fact that the
Port Arthur line makes a direct route
70 its southern terminal. it is one of
the crookedest roads in the country.
although the curves and angles are not
Of sufficient Importance to show on the
map. They are very much in evidence
IN riding over the road, however. 1t is
said that the road is so crooked at
some points along the line that the
engineer is in constant fear of coiliding
with the rear coaches of his train.
These crooks were put into the road
on purpose by Arthur Il. Stilwell. the
promoter Of the enterprise Some of
the towns along the line OF the survey
refused to put up the bonus that Mr..
Stiwell felt they ought to. and he built
around them. The crooks which re-
suited give the trains a hOochee
cuochee motion. When Sam w. War
her, the general passenger agent of
The road. went over the line. he was
impressed with this feature. and the
humOr of the situation appealed to his
fancy.
He advertised the road as being
straight as the crow flies" Probably
no one ever saw a sober, self-respect-
ing crow execute such -maneuvers as
the Kansas City Southern, but the idea
amused the railroad people all over the
country and while sam Warner was
numerically "guyed" about his GROW
Tier. it advertised the road and made

Rock Island to Become a Rival For
Government Contracts.

With its new special from Chicago
to Los Angeles. the Rock Island is to
become rival of it's competitors for
carrying the mails. Anew mail route,
is is said, will be opened up by this
road, which will throw 1t in competition
with other transcontinental roads en-
gagged in this profitable pursuit. The
fact that the road claims a shorter
service between Kansas City and FL
Paso and also from there to Los An
geles is cited as evidence that it stands
a good chance Of getting slice of the
government contracts. When the new
equipment was announced it was OBJ
served that a special new mail car
service was provided for, and this is
pointed out as an indication of the
Rock Islands determination to get in
