YerinstOn May Have Spur Line of Railroad.

1t is not at all unlikely that when
the broad-gauging of the G. K G.
railroad is completed to Tonopah and
the southern country spur line OF
broad-gauge of road will connect
Yerington with the main line at
Wabuska. Report says that rail-
road man close to headquarters has
made some inquiry regarding
right OF way up through the center
of the valley as tar as this point,
and possibly to the end of the val
ley. The object of running the line
through the center of the valley
would be to accommodate the entire
section. The road, it built on either
side, would make hauling as incon-
venient as it is to now haul to Wa
buska for at least half of the farm
ers in the valley. There is a great
deal of freight coming into this val
ley at the present time, and much
produce being shipped out. In the
near future, when a water storage
system is completed and the large
land holdings cut up into small
farms, the freight that will come in
and go out of this section would
make short line of road from Wa
buska up through this valley and on
into Smith Valley one of the best
paying railroad lines in the world,
md if the Southern Pacific does not
put in such a road somebody else
will. The farmers and land owners
of the valley should throw no obsta-
Gle in the way of such an enter
prise and it ought to cost the rail
road company very little, if any
thing, for right Of way.

Some time ago the G. 4 G. people

A letter received al this Office from
Prof. Wilson, of the State Univer-

of Walker Lake straight to Luning.
A cutoff of this kind would save
several miles of travel and the
climbing of heavy grade.
