Bottom text: IMPORTANT INFORMATION FREE ______________ The Union Pacific Railway Company issue large editions of printed matter descriptive of the sections traversed by or reached via its lines.  The information imparted is carefully prepared and reliable, and is furnished free upon application.  Applicants are requested to state in what portion of the West they are specially interested.  Persons seeking general information in regard to travel in the West, or to Trans-Pacific Ports, will do well to send to the General Passenger Agent, Omaha, Neb., for our sixty-four page pamphlet folder, and for our new map folder.  These publications contain a vast number of facts and figures of interest to every traveler.  The map folder contains this map upon one side, and time cards, etc., on the other. THE CENTRAL SHORT LINE. ______________ The Union Pacific is the oldest and best equipped of the Trans-Continental Lines.  It is also the shortest route to all points in Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and Trans-Pacific Ports ; the only route to Wyoming and Idaho ; and by far the most desirable line connecting the East with the West and Northwest.  These facts will be clear to all who examine this Map.  In the face of all competition, the Union Pacific holds its position in public favor because it is the best equipped, the best operated and the quickest route, and because it passes through the most interesting, most prosperous and most promising portions of the West.
