Zednick introduced a bill in 1911

WHAT 1T MEANS

The Southern Pacific railway
has announced that IL has
booked 10000 tourists for Cal
ifornia this winter.
California statistics show
that the average tourist spends
5000. aside from transportation.
This would give California So
100000 of tourist money this
winter.
And the Northwest can be the
summer Mecca of tourists just
as California is now the winter
attraction.
