ANOTHER ROAD ASSURED.

The announcement of the award in
Pittsburg to the contracting firm of
William Kennefick & Co, of q contract
to build for $4,000. 900 a railroad from
Salt Lake to San Francisco for the
Wabash, undoubtedly has reference 10
the Western Pacific. It is known that
the Wabash and the Rio Grande lines,
Gould roads, are backing the Western
Pacific, and the official announcement
that the contract has been awarded is
evidence sufficient that the road win
be built as rapidly as the work car be
accomplished by men and money.
While the contract is without doubt
the biggest railroad contract ever
undertaken by single firm in tins
country, Salt Lake people will be less
interested in the size OF the amount in
volved than in the fact that aIother
railroad for this city is assured. While
no official statements on the subject
have been made it is reasonable and
natural to suppose that Salt Lake viii
be the headquarters of the new line
This because of the geographical ad-
vantages of Salt Lake and the eact that
Mr.. Gould has already very large in
tereStS here.
The immense benefit of a railroad to
a city has never been brought home so
forcibly to the people of SAT- Lake
as since the completion of the san
Pedro, Los. Angeles & Salt Lake rail
way. At no period in the history az
this city has the town been So full of
visitors as this summer. Practically
ever since the middle of MAY. every
hotel in salt Lake has been doiag =
capacity business. The restaurants,
especially those of the better class.
have been crowded.
While il would be stretching a point
to say that all of this increase IL
tourist travel is due to the San Pedro.
Los Angeles K Salt Lake road. it is
undeniably true that a considerable
proportion of il is. Hundreds of
travellers who formerly went to Cali
fornia by the southern route or
through Ogden without coming to Salt
Lake, are going and returning now by
way of the San Pedro. All of them
spend some money here, and not q few
are convinced that they should make
investments in Salt Lake.
The Western Pacific will also bring
money TO this city, money and popula-
ton We wish for the new road a full
measure OF success.

line of their duty, even though, they
died as a result OF their own careless
ness, might have been permitted 10 rest
In the grave without visiting upon their
surviving relatives the added bitter
ness of official censure.
The truth is, and the public viii
never be convinced to the contrary,
that high officials of the navy DEPART
ment were directly responsible for the
Bennington disaster. 1t is much to be
doubted if any amount of care on the
part of the men in charge of the boiler
room could have long averted the
calamity. It was known that the fatal
Boiler 3" was old and worn~a and out
of repair. The navy department knew
il, the officers and men on the Ben
nington knew it. Yet no steDs were
taken to repair or replace the boiler.
If the explosion had not occurred at
San Diego the Bennington, still with
steam in Boiler B. would have been
sent to Panama for more hard service
This under orders from the navy de-
partment that knew of the dangerous
condition of the boiler. And until the
responsibility higher I'D is fixed tho
people of this country will not be
satisfied.
