FOR THROUGH LINE
IN CASTLE VALLEY
Surveyors, Accompanied by Capitalist,
Making Survey for the
Grade.

Especial TO The Herald Republican,
Castledale. Aug. IA survey par
ty working in Huntington canyon is,
by the declaration of the men in
charge, surveying for a grade for a
through line OF railroad, the building
of which is dependent on the condi-
tons found by the surveyors as re-
CARDS ease in grading.
Nothing could be learned from the
surveyors as to the terminals of the
road except that the survey is to be
made through to Nephi. The fact that
the work is being crowded indicates.
however, that the project is bona flde.
A capitalist, represented to be inter-
ested in the proposition, is accompa-
nying the survey gang.
No Information can be CLEANED as
TO what line of road is backing the
proposition. The immense amount Of
coal which can be opened along the
line is given as one of the principal
reasons for the undertaking.
There have been rumOrs at various
times of a similar move on the part
Of the Rio Grande, and in the event
these lines are built capitalists of Cas-
tie valley are ready TO construct line
to connect with both.
