New Rail
Road One
Mile Long

Construction has begun on what
will probably be the shortest railroad
system in the United States, by Geo.
Smith, owner of the Garfield coal
mine between Clifton and Palisade.
The new railroad Will be just q
mile in length. and will run from the
mine to the Rio Grande right of way
near Bridges switch. Teams have
been started to work grading for the
new line. and the ties have already
been unloaded on the right of way.
Mr.. Smith is having some difficult
ty in securing the right OF way. al
though he has all but one stretch OF
land, which goes through the a. n.
McLennon orchard. II is probable
that condemnation proceedings will
be required to determine the value of
the trees to be destroyed by the new
railway line. The Rio Grande has al
ready built side track to accommo-
date the new connecting system.
