The ORIENT PROGRESSES
Work Being Pushed on Great Trunk
Line Between Sweetwater
and Red River,-AIso
In Mexico.

In Mexico.
Reports from Kansas City,
Sweetwater and the Mexican
headquarters of the Kansas City,
Mexico and Orient railway indi-
cate that work on that great
Western trunk line is being
pushed very rapidly and that
there are sufficient funds in sight
to continue the work tor some
months. Mr.. McCauley, vice.
president of the road, recently
stated that this was the condition
of affairs and that the plans Of
the Orient people III building
from both ends were working to
splendid advantage, A few days
ago Mr.. Thomas l'rammel, of
Sweetwater, one of the directors
of the road, stated that enough
constructed material was. on the
ground to complete the road from
Sweetwater to Red River and that
work on that division was being
pushed very rapidly. 1t hasn't
been very long since We read
about some new engines being
brought TO this section of the
road and there are 200 miles Of
road in operation between Wichi-
Ia and Kansas City, besides 300
more in Mexico.
AS soon as this work from
Sweetwater to Red River is COM
pleted, and it looks now that
that will be accomplished by
spring, work will begin on the
construction of the road between
Sweetwater and San Angelo.
Some time may elapse before the
road is extended south from this
city but there is not the slightest
bit of doubt in the minds of those
San Angelo people who are keep
ing up with Orient affairs that
the road will be completed in a
few years
In the opinion Of the Press
there Is no need to get impatient.
Jehovah required six days to
create this sphere upon which we
are permitted to exist. One can
hardly expect men to build
thousands of miles of railway,
stock it, and have it in operation
in less than a half-score of years,
especially when every railroad
syndicate and practically every
trust III the United States is try
ing to prevent the promoters OF
that railroad obtaining sufficient
funds to enable them to do the
work.
The Press believes that the
people of San Angelo will beaI
with the shortcomings of Presi'
dent Stilwell in this regard and
that they will do all in theil
power to uphold his hands and tc
help him along with one of the
most important enterprises of the
decade.

Lampasas, Texas, Feb. 3.-An
accident occurred on the Santa
Fe about two miles west Of
Coperas Cove which came near
resulting seriously both to the
train and TO Section Foreman
John Efrid, who came very near
losing his life.
AS the morning west bound
passenger train was coming
around a sharp curve at good
rate of speed, it came on to a
hand car loaded with men who
were going out to work. The
hand car was stopped and all the
section hands left the right Of
way except the foreman, John
Efrld, who remained with the CIR
trying to lift 1t from the track.
The engine struck the hand car,
tearing it to pieces and throwing
Mr.. Efrid about 60 feet from the
track. The train crew brought
Mr.. Efrid to this place, where the
company's physician met him,
who pronounced him severely
bruised and scratched, and gave
him every attention until the
east bound train arrived, when he
was sent to his home at Coperas
Cove.

VlNOL'SR RELIABILITY
Prominent Physicians Join Our Local
Druggist, e. G. Fowler, In Prnising
This MeritOriOus Preparation.

Countless physicians and druggists
are now prescribing and endorsing vi
mol as the most valuable cod liver oil
preparation known to medicine and it
is fast superseding all other forms of
cod liver oil and emulsions.
This is because Vinol is guaranteed
to contain in a highly concentrated
form all of the medicinal. curative ell
ements of cod liver oil. actually taken
from fresh Gods livers. but without
drop of the useless, system clogging
oil to upset the stomach and retard its
work.
Vinol is not a patent medicine. as
everything in II is named on the label.
and 1t can be seen that 1t is absolutely
free from drugs and all injurious in
gradients.
A prominent physician writes: Il be-
lieve Viaol to be the most valuable cod
liver oil preparation, the best body
builder, health restorer, and strength
creator known to medicine today, and
1 should be very sorry to have to do
without Vinol in my practice"

says, In cases where cod liver oil.
