The Purest Of Mountain
Water on Southern
Pacific Diners

The Blue Canyon water, upon
which the train crews of the
Southern Pacific Company over
land route have thrived and
grown fat, has been placed in the
dining cars over the entire South
ern Pacific System. 1t has been
common gossip among the South
ern Pacific trainmen for years
that the Sacramento division men
owe their portly appearances to
the drinking of the water from
Blue Canyon.
For all trains on the Sacra-
mento division running eastward
and westward, the supply of
water will be taken on the diners
as the trains stop at that station.
On the other division of the sys-
tenn the water will be transport
ed in special containers. In this
way the diners on all of the
Southern Pacific dining cars are
to enjoy the best drinking water
to be found in the west. The
Southern Pacific Company has
had chemists at work for years
endeavoring to find the purest
water.
In hundreds of places along the
line has water been found that
could not be eXcelled for drink
ing purposes, water free to a
large extent from alkalis, but it
has been difficult to find water
that was entirely, or nearly en-
tirely, free from incrustations,
Blue canyon water comes from a
small lake and spring at the sunni
it of the Sierra Nevada noun
tains. 1t is nearly chemically
pure but the supply is not sufi-
cient for locomotive use. The
Blue canyon water contains only
forty seven hundredths of a grain
of alkali, one and seventy five
hundreths of a grain of incrust-
ing solids, or a total of two and
twenty two hundredths grains
of solids to the gallon. The in
crusting solids are harmful to the
engine boilers if there is any
great percentage of them in the
water used in locomotives, but
the water used by the Southern
Pacific engines is carefully tested
at different times during the year
and if found to contain any in.
crustations, chemical compounds
are added to nullify the effects.

The Canal Zone
By Albert Edwards

Canal Zone without beginning to
look around for the Socialist IN
the woodpile. First of all there
is the government railroad. There
are two systems. The rolling
stocks, marked ~. S." belongs
directly to the nation and is used
exclusively in connection with
the construction work. This sys-
TEN operates about 120 miles of
track, nearly as many loco
motives and 1000 dirt cars.
The Panama Railroad was built
across the Isthmus back in the
fifties, by private corporation.
At first it was enormously pro-
itable, but with the competition
of the trans continental lines it
lost much of it's traffic and fell into
considerable decay until the
majority of it's stock was bought
by the French Canal Company.
They resuscitated it for construc-
tion purposes. When in 1904 we
bought out the French we also
acquired their control OF this
system. A few shares of stock
are still outstanding which al
lows the road to remain tech
nically a private concern and so
engage in commercial business.
But in spite of this technicality
it is a national railroad the only
one we have. And it is one to be
proud Of.
The governmental Mr.. Slifer-
secured the services of a general
who at the top of the
railroad business, and under his
administration the road was pra-
ctically rebuilt and put on basis
of efficiency which is surpassed
by none in the States. Without
exceptions the crows of engine
ers who from time to time visit
the Isthmus have praised the
transportation work.
1t is impossible to estimate how
the Panama Railroad works out
as a money Garner. It's annual
statements are unusual
ly rosy, but this is a matter of
bookkeeping. The greatest part
of it's work at present is earring
for the Isthmian Canal Commits
sion, another branch of the gov
And by what standard
the government decides what it
shall charge itself for doing it's
own work is hard to determine.
Apparently it charges itself just
enough to make the road pay
satisfactory dividends. 1t is
certain, however, that no private
concern would do the government
work so cheaply.
The Panama Railroad also ope-
rates about $50 miles Of track.
The two government systems
combined run to over 500 miles.
The next things which strike
the visitor to the Isthmus are the
government hotels at both ends
of the line. If you are at the
Pacific terminus you will stop at
the TivoIi Hotel. The native hotels
in Panama City are dirty and dis
The Tivoli sets on
the side of Ancon Hill, with a
gorgeous view out over the Bay.
What you will think of the hotel
depends entirely upon where you
