Show t THE DEEP CREEK ROAD We once more warn the business men of Salt Lake that they are making a mistake that I they do not if i i necessary mortgage all they have and drive a railroad railroad rail- rail road ad to Deep Creek It can be cheaply built After t reaching Deep Creek and Muncie district the road roady y r itself would swiftly stuffily from its its profits build the road i onto Ely on Goldfield and the Sierras i If they do not do this t is they Will twill lose the t e bulk of the thea I a t 4 trade of Nevada air Mr Clark is IS pushing a branch branchi li I fit i of the San Pedro to Goldfield If with that com com- j t I Salt Lake men believe they can capture the theA A- A trade of Rhyolite Goldfield Tonopah Silver Peak and the the theother other adjacent camps they are r mistaken Assuming th that t the r road ad will charge the same rates east and west that will carry the trade west because Los Angeles gets her goods by sea cheaper than Salt Lake does by rail It is just possible that Los Anc An An- c t f geles gets he her goods by rail cheaper than Salt Lake does because there are wheels within wheels ever on railroads Now if the road went direct front from this city it would have some paramount advantages The first would be in point of time A miner or farmer in eastern e stern Nevada could take the train at night and be here in the morning This would be true truc as far west as s Goldfield Then if a miner he could send his ores by the shortest and most direct route to a certain Ii reduction point Men fen owning properties in eastern Nevada could live here go out at night spend all the ther i r next day n their properties and nd be back in the city c rC tho the next neat morning They could get homes here rea rea- i have their children here in school and be bellere herewith here i-here with them a great part of the time If farmers their products would all gravitate this way their be beef f their wool their fruit and vegetables The natural trend is this way now If Ii our bud bu- bu iness men wait until th the drift turns toward the west that will be final Salt final Salt Lake will be shut out 0 Then the road itself would pay the builders more morey y than any any other investment they could make With Nith it through to Muncie and Ely it could count on per day freight on ore alone That would mean th they y would get the whole cost of the road back in profits every eighteen months Is not that good 11 enough 1 Then the road through to Goldfield would double the value of this city's realty The Western Pacific will be within forty miles oi of th the northeast edge of Deep Creel Creek this coming autumn au- au But that will twill not do Most of the ores so r far opened in that region are low grade and w will ll not not bear long wagon hauls What Mr 1 Newhouse r proposes to expend here this year would build the I road road to Goldfield It would pay 50 per cent on its jV cost the start And Nevada is as yet ye only r scratched |
