A GREAT RAILWAY.
THE
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul RAILWAY COMPANY
Now Owns and Operates 5,670 Miles of Thoroughly Equipped Road in ILLINOIS, WISCONSIN,
MINNESOTA, IOWA,
MISSOURI and DAKOTA.
Each recurring year its lines are extended in all directions to meet the necessities of the rapidly populating sections of country West, Northwest and Southwest of Chicago, and to furnish a market for the products of the Greatest Agricultural and Stock Raising Districts of the World.
In Illinois it operates 316 Miles of Track, in Wisconsin 1,304 Miles, in lowa 1,572 Miles, in Minnesota 1,122 Miles, in Dakota 1,216 Miles, in Missouri 140 Miles, And the end is not yet. It has terminals in such large cities as
Chicago, Milwaukee, La Crosse, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Fargo, Sioux City, Council Bluffs, Omaha, Kansas City and St. Joseph, Mo.
And along its lines are hundreds of large and small thriving cities, towns and vil- lages. Manufacturing interests are cultivated, and all branches of trade find encour- agement. The Railway Company has a just appreciation of the value of its patrons, and its magnificent earnings are the result of the good business tact which character- izes the management of its affairs.
. The popularity of the line is attested by the fact that notwithstanding the strong. est kind of competition of old and new lines, the CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE & ST. PAUL RAILWAY continues to carry the greater portion of all the business between CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE, ST. PAUL and MINNEAPOLIS. It is the best pat- ronized route between CHICAGO, COUNCIL BLUFFS and OMAHA, and to and from all points in WISCONSIN, MINNESOTA, DAKOTA and IOWA, and its KANSAS CITY AND ST. JOSEPH LINE will undoubtedly take equal rank with the older lines leading to and from the Southwest.
On all its through lines of travel the CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE && ST. PAUL RAILWAY runs the most perfectly equipped trains of
Sleeping, Parlor and Dining Cars and Coaches.
The through trains on all its lines are systematically heated by steam. No effort is spared to furnish the best accommodations for the least money, and, in addition, patrons of the road are sure of courteous treatment from its employes.
