Colonization Work the Keynote Of Success in Career

Townsend. late general passenger agent Of
the Missouri Pacific; George Il. Daniels,
late Of the New York Central: Q. W. Rug
gles Of the Michigan Centrsl and Maj 5. X.
Hooper OF the Denve- & Rio Greude.
The long service Of Mr.. LomsN in Omaha
caused him to be looked upon az q lifetime
fixture in Union Pacific circles, and his
decision TO change to the Western Pacific,
With headquarters in San Francisco, there
fore, came as a general surprise.
Mildred. a young woman. and r. L., ST.,
are children OF the Lomax family. Miss
Mildred with her mother. is ct present on
a European tour. E. L.. jr.. who bids fair
20 be "chip off Of the old block" has
not yet completed the collegiate course his
father has marked out for him. The Lomsx
family has apartments in the Hamilton,
Twenty-fourth and Farnam streets.
In view Of the long continued service OF
L. L. Lomax as general passenger agent
Of the Union Pacific there comes the deduc-
ton that his service must have been espe
oislly satisfactory, for Il Is obvious without
further insight that railroad corporations
do not retain officials for reasons senti-

comes pertinent to look further into the
technical side Of this mans work in order
that the winning features of his capability
may be brought forward for review
He succeeded in more than ordinary
measure-but what particular merit score
dominated that success?
There must have been some positively
strong point
The general public has but slight coneep-
ton OF what constitutes the work Of a gen
eral passenger agent. There was a time
when II was popularity supposed that one
of his chief duties was the distribution OF
free passes, but along came the Interstate
Commerce commission with ruling which
makes the passenger mans mo- not onl,
easy Of articulation, but legally imperative
as well. But even though he no longer
contracts writer's cramp affi1;ing official
signature to free transportation. there is
still plenty of work for the general pas
senger agent Onltting mention Of routine
traffic features, such as enter into the
daily grist in any railroad office. there
comes uhveiling OF the chief strong point
that made E. L. Lomax exceptionally vaiu.
able to the Union Pacific railroad. Here
IL is:

marksble strength as a colonization agent.
1t is something more than mere patriotic
love OF country that prompts railroad
company TO compile sud publish ton after
ton OF descriptive brochure setting forth
the slluring advantages of this or that sec
ton OF country as q mecca for homeseek-
ers The railroad wants the country IL
traverses 10 be settled-snd Il wants it
settled as quickly as possible. OF course
there Is revenue In the tickets that trans
port the settlers TO their new homes, but
that isn't the paramount issue. Far above
the sale OF tickets is the new business and
the permanent business that comes TO tho
road coincident with settlement and de-
Velcpn emit IL Is a compound Interest propo-
sition.
Settlers in a new country as well as in
the old. must consume imported merchan-
disc. Likewise. following the production Of
their farms or their factories, they must
export. So there is a mixture Of imports
and exports that sends freight trains in
both directions and brings Joy to the stock
holder
While il is no part OF the general pas
senger agents duty 10 go out into the
open and directly solicit freight shipments
IL is a part OF his duty 10 induce an in

piles up the dividends.
A veritable encyclopedia OF information
concerning the resources OF the country
from the Missouri river west to Puget
sound and san Diego. Mr.. Lomax proved
especially efficient in executing colonization
work.
That one faculty. so we'll developed and
so thoroughly exercised. so railroad men
declare tells the why of Mr.. LomaN's sue
cess as a passenger agent.
The Western Pacific, OF which road Mr..
I,omax is TO become traffic manager, Is a
Gould property. running between San
Francisco and Salt Lake City, The LomaN
headquarters are 10 be in San Francisco.
Note the significance Of traffic manager
ana dwell upon the fact that 1t means
general supervision over freight as well
as passenger business. Take further con-
sideration that the country traversed by
the western Pacific has room for thou
sands upon thousands of settlers. 1t is for
most of the way a country undeveloped.
True. there is a city at either end of the
line, but the middle needs filling out. Now
vcu see why the Western Pacific came 10
omaha and carried away the man who
has played a prominent part in shipping
farmers and farm implements 10 newly

ment with Afr. Tousalin was the starting
point Of the Lomax railroad career Mr.
Touzalin simply gave the boy a chance
and the boy made the most OF that chance
Mr. Lomax remained with the Touzalin

years or So and was serving as chief clerk

Ghost Lakes and Lost River

George s. Myers of sale Lake City, Utah.
in speaking Of the lakes OF his country
said that IN the great basin between the
Rockies and the Sierra Nevadas lie the
ghosts OF many dead lakes. Rivers viii
flow down to the dry edges and are licked
up by evaporation and the chinook winds.
OF all the lakes that once lay there, only
salt lake, Lake Tahoe and Bear lake are
left. The Southern Pacific rolls for l65
miles across the bed of what was once
Lake Lahontan. and passengers gazing idly
from the windows may see the terraces
and wrinkles in the crust OF the fossil lake
which nature destroyed years ago.
Akin to these ghost lakes are the lost
rivers OF the southwest" continued Mr..
Myers. Rivers that flow with all the
swiftness and clearuess of other streams
near By, then disappear into the earth a.
mysteriously az II they were spirit dreams.
In the valley Of the Rio Grande there are
many little rivers OF this kind. Just south
OF Santa Fe is, the River Hondo, which
flows broad and deep for many miles. thea
suddenly spreads out over a sandy plain
and disappears. tI,saAn
"A few hundred feet from where It goes
out OF sight there is only sand az dry a.
dust itself. Some of these streams end in
tiny brackish lakes, but most OF them dis
appear in the sand beds. on the coast OF
Mexico there are clear water streams that
discharge into the gulf from underground
channels many feet below the level OF the
sea, thought TO be the same waters that
disappear farther up In the states. In the
valley between Pecos and the Rio Grande
beginning near sandal mountains Is the
head OF an old river, with all its tributaries
its falls, its shadows, and It's fascinating
herds. II Is 200 miles long and many feet
wide. but II Is only the ghost OF a river,
for there IL no water there. 1t passes by
the ruins OF Gran Quivaria, its bed is
strewn with broken lava. and Il terminates
in a salt marsh. The Indians have a legend
that long ago the waters were deep and
swift there, until one day great fire swept
down the valley, tapping up the waters,
leaving the bed empty the banks barren,
and the valley depleted forevermore. -
