Railroad Observations.
To THE News:

TO THE NEWS:
For the last six months there
has been much talk and observa-
ton about Canyon City railroad
prospects. To me the prospect
is very much brighter now than
heretofore. | am fully persuad-
ed that the Santa Fe will build
its round house and machine
shops here whether it builds
from Panhandle to Amarillo or
from Washburn to Canyon City.
and by way OF observation |
might add that it will build from
Washburn to Canyon City. Now
there are two why's. after which
comes an interrogation point
First. Why will the round
house and machine shops be
built at Canyon City: Easy to
perceive. There is no town on
the Santa Fe railway within the
Panhandle that has its super
abundant supply of soft water
from 10 to 100 feet enough to
supply any want of a city Of lO0,-
600 people Besides this mex
haustible supply of underground
sheet water there is on the south
and north of Canyon City creeks
or canyons with fine running
water-the north canyon espec-
tally is fed by ever living springs
Of soft. pure water the year
around in great abundance. We
have the finest drainage of any
town on the line and are so stu
ated that some day Canyon City
viii have more manufactures
than all the rest put together.
We can furnish a million gallons
Of water to Amarillo one thous-
and. We get it from 60 to l2O
feet; Amarillo from 80 to 500
feet. OF course on the canyons
we get water at from Il to 10
feet. There will be a railroad in
/ the near future built from Can
yon City southeast by FIoydada
on to connect with the 7. q p.
Ry. in the vicinity of Abilene.
We have the outlets from here
over the Santa Fe and will have
two more, one via Washburn and
one southeast. This will be a
central point.
The railroad track will never
be taken up from Washburn to
Panhandle Railroad people are
not in the habit of saying what
they will do-they always say the
other thing. They have been in
timating strongly that they are
going from Panhandle to Anna
rillo, thereby necessitating the
taking up Of the Washburn line;
but this gives me clew by
which l say they will never do it.
The first thing to be done is the
grading from Washburn to Can
yon City. Railroad people are
business people and we may sup
pose that they will not add four
miles to their trackage over
greater grades and take up
whole chartered railroad in or
der TO do it with a long legal fight
in the courts between Washburn
and the railroad and then, too, if
this fight should be decided in

Will they do it? No. and you
may be sure of it. Mark it
Canyon City by January, 1908,
will have a real boom.
