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. |
