TREYNOR ALOMST

BRATE ADVENT OF A
RAILROAD.

Treynor, June 2O.-This little city
Of 1000 people has at last been found.
Founded soon after the organization OF
Pottawattamie county, Iowa, 1t then
lost itself but thanks to modern pro-
gress and the railroad it is now about
to realize the dream Of it's founders,
for q railroad has been built from
Council Bluffs here and everybody IN
the town is CORRESPONDENCE happy.
For nearly half century every item
of freight has been hauled from Coun-
Gil Bluffs over the hill to Treynor.
When the town was located it had
great hopes. 1t was in direct line
with the great trans continental high
way which then bid fair to soon
change to railroad line extending
across the continent. Year after year
passed, men grew old and died but the
hopes of the remaining citizens never
died and while the populations at
times has slightly fluctuated 1t has al
ways reacted and resumed it's normal
level.
June 20 has been fixed as the date
for celebration of the advent of the
railroads.&c. Omaha and Iowa Short
line-and the things that will not be
done on that day will be those not
worth noticing-
