now a considerable freight distribut-
ing point, and in the contemplation OF
this railroad project, Il IS only IN its
infancy as a freight center. Denver
Pueblo and Colorado Springs are on
an average Of 2O7 miles vest OF here
CtwO OF which at least are important
commercial cities); and Topeka, the
first city Of importance east Of Good
land, IS 56S miles distant So, IL stands
to reason that a large traffic flowing
eastward and westward would con
verge at the great artery traversing
the south and eaching an ocean port
The routes OF much Of our commerce
would be changed, and the millions OF
bushels Of wheat, corn and other pro-
ducts OF Kansas and adjoining states
would be routed over this line for
southern points, or ocean transpOrta-
ton.
From another point Of view, this
road would give GoOdIand a whole
sailing opportunity and tend to make
her the commercial mistress OF the
