Show The New York Commercial publishes a special- ft 1.j, WBM dispatch from this city, saying that there Is "no I- 4 1J9 credence here to the report that Senator Clark Ll - fj has sold his terminals and abandoned the San 1 ( j $ $9 Pedro line." Well, that depends. It is openly as- 3 l "j jJBfl serted by men who ought to know that the sale 1 j m8 has been made, and if there has been any indica- jE ' ' I V f tion during the past six months of any determina- If i, J tion on the part of Senator Clark to carry out his f j ' 9fl promises of two years ago, no one here has been r j il H clear-sighted enough to discover it. A dispatch ft j B last week said that some long overdue steel for 1 ft Hl the road had been received at San Pedro, and, m f 19 when laid, some fifty-three or fifty-four miles of ? F IJH the road would be completed. That is encouraging mi j ' 'v9 as far as it goes. It indicates that the road Is be- jPf Si &9 ing pushed from the western terminus at the rate K ji w9 of twenty-seven or twenty-eight miles a year, and , P, if ffl9 that if the vigorous work is maintained, the peo- . Sy H' fflm pie of this city may look forward to about A. D. w jfflm 1932 for the arrival of the first locomotive over f" ' MM the road to reach Salt Lake. L: 'Vjflifl Hkftfl |
