HELLO TO
LAS VEGAS

E. M. Burgess, general superintend-
ent of the Colorado Telephone Com
pany with headquarters in Denver.
visited the Capital yesterday. Mr..
Burgess called at the office of the New
Mexican and gave some interesting
news. He stated that his company
had resolved to extend it's long dis
tance telephone company lines, which
run from Denver, Colorado, to Las We
gas, New Mexico, from that town to
| Socorro, distance of about POI miles
| in direct lines at once. He expects
| that detachment of from forty to fif
| ty men and the necessary teams will
be placed in the field by April 1st, and
| that Santa Fe will be reached by the
| first of June. The telephone exchange
here will be under the charge of Man
ager |. Sparks of the local telephone
company. The lines are to be con-
structed in very substantial manner;
there will be forty poles to the mile,
the poles will be % feet long and will
b eof Michigan cedar. The wire will
be number 13, copper, and will weigh
ITS pounds to the mile. The line will
follow the old stage road between Las
Vegas and this city and from here will
run via Cerrillos,. Bernalillo, Albuquer
que, Los Lunas and Belen to Socorro
The Socorro company already has a
line from Socorro to Magdalena, San
Antonio, Carthage and San Marcial.
The instruments to be put in will be
of the Bell patent and of the very
best. The fees to be charged have not
yet been determined but this will be
done as soon as possible. By the fall
months, Santa Fe will be in direct
telephone communication as far south
as Socorro and as far north as Den
yer and via Denver with the far east.
Mr.. Burgess is man of affairs, of
great technical knowledge as an elec-
trician and telephone expert and of
much practical experience, as superin-
tendent and manager of telephone sys-
TENS. His company expects consider
able activity between the different |
New Mexico towns and in this, this pa |
per believes it will not be disappointed. |
The completion of this line from Las
Vegas via Santa Fe and Albuquerque
to SocOrro will be another important |
step for the advancement and progress |
of the towns of this Territory and in
the development of business and trade. |

FRISCO SYSTEM TO GIVE
HOMESTEADS TO EMPLOYEES

Chicago, March S.-Adopting the
French plan for amalgamating the
interests of the corporation and its
employees, B. F. Yoakum, chairman OF
the executive committee of the Frisco
System, has declared that a home
stead will be provided for every EN-
ploye. BY this system it is hoped to
eliminate strikes. The idea is to sell
every employe five or ten acres OF
land, tributary to the railroad and sup
piled with water to be paid for In ten
years. One provision is that If the en-
ploye dies deed for the land will be
given to the heirs. If the employe
leaves the service for any reason, the
company will pay him back all the
money he has paid out.

MOFFAT ROAD PROGRESS
ALL ON DENVER END

The Denver, Northwestern & Pacific.
The Moffat Road, that is TO give Salt
Lake the nearest approach possible to
an air line between this city and the
Colorado capital, made good progress
during the year. In the way Of actual
construction the road was extended a
distance of hfty-nine miles from Coal
Greek TO Arrowhead in Colorado. No
construction work was done during the
year on this end of the line, but every
assurance is given by the promoters
that there will be no hating in the
work of construction till the two large
cities are united by the line.
In addition TO the work on the main
systems running through the state, and
the good progress on the new lines pur-
posed. there was other railroad work
done of interest The salt Lake &
Ogden road began pushing north 10
Pennington and the assurance is given
by Simon BamberSer. the owner. that
it will be completed the entire distance
during the present year Construction
work is now being done to Layton on
the north. In addition TO this extension
arrangements have been made by
which a section OF this road will be
utilized by the Utah Light x Railway
company people as trolley line in
carrying people 10 and fro between the
city and Beck's Hot Springs, and all
points between.
Plans were laid for the construction
of suburban lines between Salt Lake
and a number of points To the south of
the city, and another line was pro-
jected from Salt Lake to Bingham
Junction. There was also much talk
of interurban lines to extend all the
way from Payson on the south &C
Logan on the north. A representative
of eastern capitalists is i'm the city al
this time looking into this project.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1905-01-01

years for lack of transportation fdcili-
ties to bring them in touch with the
outside world. The construction of the
Western Pacific viii add greatly to the
advantages Of Salt Lake as CONNER
ciaI point The opening up OF the great
empire to the west. the competition in
freight and passenger rates win play
important parts in the upbuilding of
Salt Lake as a modern city The in
coming of the Moffat road from the
east viii duplicate many of the advan-
tages to be conferred by the Western
Pacific. A portion Of the state to the
east is to be opened up to development
and as result a volume of business
viii roll in upon Salt Lake from that
direction. The entire section through
which the road is to pass Viii reap
benefits and the entire state viii profit
by the more direct communication with
the east, and the competing line viii
have its due influence on transportation
and freight rates.
The continuous Improvement on the
Short Line and the Rio Grande, the
construction of important branches and
spurs, the erection of shops and round
houses, the promised erection OF
union depot. the projected interurban
roads-alI tend to make the outlook in
this field of activity one of great prom
Use for Salt Lake in particular, and for
all Utah in general.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1905-01-01

the year just closed was of a personal
nature This was the return Of A. f.
rWelby TO the general management of
the road after an absence of several
years. The return Of 50 popular and
experienced 4 railroad man is taken to
mean that forward moves of impor-
lance are in contemplation for the year
just opening. The retirement OF so
popular a nan as Joseph H. Young
from local railroad circles is regretted
but the regret is Offset by the general
good feeling over the return of Welby.
The financial report of the ~Rio
Grdnde was not so good for the year
as IL has been in some previous years
The falling off was accounted for al
most wholly % the labor troubles in
Colorado. The Utah end of the line
did well and made as good a record as
in any previous year outside of the
coal traffic Here there was a falling
off, due to Ihe labor disturbances In
Carbon county, and the fact that the
Hartman lines blocked the coal traffic
to some extent at ogden. The paSsen-
ger traffic on the Rio Grande was never
better, the travel to the coast over this
popular scenic line was one of the fea-
lures of the year in local railroad ac
Invites.
The completion Of the narrow gauge
Uimtah road, ifty-fve miles long. from
Mack, Colo, 20 Dragon, Utah, in the
heart of the gilsonite country in the
extreme eastern part of the state, was
looked upon as a Rio Grande enterprise,
although no direct connection has yet
been acknowledged. On the surface
the road seens to be the property of
the St Louis Gilsonite company, and
was constructed for the purpose of de-
veloping the asphaltum industry in
eastern Utah. The greatest significance
attached to this little road is due to the
fact that surveys already indicate its
extension into the DucheSne country.
If the evident purposes are carried into
effect activity Of unusual character will
be found in that part of Utah through
out the entire coming year. especially if
the Uintah Indian reservation is opened
to settlement.
At the close Of the year the opinion
also prevails that the Rio Grande West
ern is to take the Copper Belt railroad
at Bingham canyon early in the new
year if satisfactory terms can be agreed
upon all around. During the year
double passenger service was put on
between Salt Lake and Bingham and
the greatly increased travel justified
the move.
Talk of new branches in southern
Utah to tap rich mineral territory was
common during the year, but no definite
move was made in the way of construc-
ton work. The understanding at the
close of the year is that all these enter

FEATURES OF INTEREST
IN SHORT LINE RECORD

The story of progress on the Snort
Line during the year 1904 IFS largely the
story OF the activity of r. H hartman
in the western railroad world The
Short Line had a good year; il
branched out and made improvements
in many lines and at the close the road
is in the strongest position III its his
tory. The new year opens with every
promise of heavy business and good
profits.
The greatest change of the year fox
the Short Line came early after a visit
of julius Kruttschnitt to Salt Lake.
Soon after the Union Pacific from
Green River, Wyoming, to Ogden, and
the Southern Pacihc from ogden TO
Reno, Nevada, We're placed under the
jurisdiction of the Short Line ana
operated from this point BY this move
the Could interests were practically
shut out of OSden-the gateway was
closed against them.
The next important move was the
turning over of the I.ucin cutoff to the
operating department of the road. This
was done April 1. Freight trains began
running over the great treStle in March
and have continued TO do so ever since.
The opening of the cutoff to pas
senger traffic took place Sept. Is. al
though sixty car loads OF Knights
TempIar were run over the trestle be
fore that by special arrangement. All
regular Southern Pacific trains, both
passenger and freight. have been tax
ing the short cut to and from the coast
since Sept. IS.
Changes Among Officials.
Two changes of importance we're made
i'm the official lineup of the road during
the year. w. H. Bancroft went &c

control of the Short Line He returned
April /, and remained here till Nov. 10,
when he was made acting general man
ager Of the Pacific system Of the South
eTn Pacific with headquarters in San
Francisco.
The second change of importance was
when T. +. Calvin was promoted from
the position OF assistant general man
ager of the Short Line to the position
/ Of general manager of The Oregon Rat
way < Navigation company with head
quarters in Portland. 20 succeed a. 7.
MOhler- He was succeeded on the Short
Line here by r. buckingham, who
! holds the title of general superinten-
dent
In the matter of actual construction
work the year was not a great one for
I the Short Line. Several short branches
and feeders in Idaho are under con-
structiOn and proposed. Among these
IS the Minidoka branch. sixty miles
from the main line at MinidOka To
| Twin Falls Another IS . seven and a
half mile branch from Boise to Bar
beT's Mills Another is four mile cut
off from Michaus 20 BannOck. No
definite moves were made in the direc-
ton of constructing the more important
extensions proposed.
in Utah a branch OF two miles was
constructed 10 the United States
smelters from Atwood Junction and an
other branch 20 the Highland Boy
Smelter from LOvendahl- This IS l.33
miles long. Much work was done in
Salt Lake in the way of grading the
new switch yards in North Salt Lake:
in laying new tracks. and in building
a round house, d turn table ard coal
chutes.
Better Grip on Idaho.
a round house OF fifteen stalls and
machine shops were built at Lima
Montana; d round house of twelve
stalls and machine shops were built at
Gleun's Ferry, Idaho These were all
equipped with the Erie heating system,
considered by many Of the leading rail-
roads the best. This system was also
put in the round house and machine
shops at Ogden.
Eighty-pOund steel rails were sub
Stituted on long stretches of road for
the lighter rails previously used A
stretch of sixteen miles between Castle
Rock and Morgan was treated in this
way. Another stretch of forty miles
between Hot Springs and Cache juno
ton was treated in a similar way.
Three hundred doUble-deck stock cars
have been ordered and from ten TO
fifteen new passenger engines. Pacific
type. have been added during the year
10 the rolling stock.
The Short Line system is so well
equipped With rolling stock and the
tracks are in such fine condition that it
is thought little viii be done along
these lines during the coming year but
that much energy Will be devoted TO
the reaching out for new territory.
