A Factor in Transcontinental Travel.
No one crossing the continent can afford
to cut Salt Lake city from his route. The
attractions of the place, including the
Mormon Temple, Tabernacle and church
Institutions, the great Salt Lake deader
and denser than the Dead sea In the Holy
Land the picturesque environment and
the warm sulphur and hot springs, are
greater to the square yard than any local
ity on the American continent. The Rio
Grande Western railway, connecting on
the east with the Denver and Wo Grande
mid Colorado Midland railways, and on
the west with the Suuthern Pacific (Cen
tral route) and Oregon Short Line. Is the
only transcontinental line passing directly
through Salt Lake City. The route
through Salt Lake City via the Rio Grande
1 Western railway Is famous all the year
round. On account of the equitable cli
mate of Utah and Colorado, it is just as
popular In w inter as in summer. Send 2C j
