Those aud many other advantage would result from the construction of h good road from Cedar City to Lund. Iu dlsonuragoment of the undertaking under-taking Borne will urge that no will have a railroad practically over thla route within a abort time, and therefore there-fore tho expenditure would be a use-Ifixa use-Ifixa oini, In nnxwur to 'this contention con-tention wo will atato that practically Mil proipeat of grading bofore spring una beon dlanolled, and then we know nothing definitely as towhothor the railroad will Im built or not, Hut If wo wore absolutely certain that the nil I rond would bo built next year, The Record would still main tain that It waa a proper thing to build the wagon road. A good wagon and automobile roHd parallel-lug parallel-lug the railroad la a mighty good thing to have, aud will save the people of Oodar Oily more than the road wll neat In the matter of rates, etc., whloh will be aooordfld by the railroad company. r Ithout a doubt the road to Lund la a great uoneaalty and cannot be bo completed any tco soon.
