Upon the occasion of the 43rd
Nstiossl Emcampment Of the Grand
Army OF the Republic at Salt Lass
City. Asgsst 3 TO IA, Salt Lake will
undoubtedly bs called upon to enter
tain the largest attendance Of visi-
tors that the city has ever known.
From all over the Uuion will
come the hosts OF the Grand Army
intent upon meeting their comrades,
renewing old acquaintance and
seeing the sights of this most inter
esting city.
The attendance from Colorado
should be the largest from any state
in the Union as our nearness to
Salt Lake City, end the very low
railroad fare offered, makes the trip
both convenient and inexpensive.
Utah will expect Colorado TO send
q great rousing delegation. and this
is an opportunity for Colorado TO
show her loyalty and appreciation
of Salt Lake City's securing this
great National Convention for our
Inter Mountain country.
The Denver * Rio Grande rail
road has been selected as the official
route and the official Colorado Spec
ial will leave Denver Saturday, Aug
ust Z, at I0:i5 a. m arriving in Salt
Lake City Sunday, August s, at 4
o, o,clock p. m
Complete arrangements have
been made for the convenience Of
comrades living in various parts
of Colorado to Join The Colorado
Special Train at nearest station to
their homes, thus avoiding the un-
necessary expense OF making an
extra ip to reach the starting
point.
Sleeping cars will be located at
several principal points along the
line, and from present indications
the train will be the largest special
train pulling into Salt Lake City
for the National Encampment
The Denver * Rio Grande road
is sparing no effort or expense to
bring up the attendance to point
that will be a credit to Colorado and
