A GREAT RAILWAY. THE CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE & ST. PAUL -


RAILWAY COMPANY


Now Owns and Operates Over 5,600 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 317 Miles of Track, in Wisconsin 1,332 Miles, in lowa 1,556 Miles, in Minnesota 1,122 Miles, in Dakota 1,213 Miles, in Missouri 142 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 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.

NO OTHER RAILWAY in the NORTHWEST


Hlas in so short a period gained the reputation and popularity enjoyed by the


Wisconsin Central Line


From a comparatively unknown factor in the Commercial World, it has been transformed to an independent, influential, grand


THROUGH ROUTE,


WITH MAGNIFICENT DEPOTS,


SUPERB EQUIPMENT AND UNSURPASSED TERMINAL FACILITIES.


Through careful catering to details, it has won for itself a reputation for solidity, safety, convenience and attention to its patrons, second to no Railroad in the Country.


PULLMAN SLEEPERS,


Models of Palatial Comfort, Dining Cars in which the cuisine and general appoint- ments are up to the highest standard, and Coaches especially built for this route, are among the chief elements which have contributed towards catering successfully to a discriminating public.


LOCATED DIRECTLY ON ITS LINE, BETWEEN


Chicago and Milwaukee, and St. Paul and Minneapolis, and Chicago and Ashland and Duluth,


Are the following Thriving Cities of Wisconsin and Michigan:


BURLINGTON, STEVENS' POINT,

OREGON


The great, new and flourishing State of Oregon offers to the immi- grant more substantial inducements for settlement than any of the Eastern States, and to ignorance of its vast resources, the productive quality of its soil, and its mild, delightful climate, may be attributed the fact that so much of its. area is still without cultivation. It is being rapidly filled up now, and a decade hence the value of its land and products will have more than doubled.


WASHINGTON TERRITORY


Lying next to Oregon, is also one of the most prolific sections in the Great Northwest, and it is a matter of no small significance that its yield of Wheat, Barley, Flax and Hops for 1885 was nearly double what it was in 1884, and that the products brought a much higher price.


Oregon and Washington are the only two sections in the United States which produced full crops for 1885. See Government statistics.


It Will Pay Every Progressive Farmer


To examine into the advantages of Oregon and Washington, and even if you have no thought of changing your home you should write to one of the undersigned for information, as you should not be ignorant of what this section can produce.


The Oregon Railway & Navigation Company fur- nishes facilities for reaching all portions of the country, and offers special low rates to immigrants. Write to

INTRODUCTORY.


In making our thirty-fourth annual how to the good people of Indianapolis, through their city directory, we desire to congratulate them and ourselves on the pleasant rela- tions that have so long existed between us. It is now more than a third of a century since the city first reached the dignity of a directory, and for a large part of that period the present publishers have had the honor of furnishing it. How well they have suc- ceeded in representing the steady growth and progress of the city is for the public to judge, though we should regret to have it said or thought that we had fallen short of our duty in this regard in any particular. We have been constantly mindful of the fact that Indianapolis is one of the largest inland cities of the Union, a city not only of great pos- sibilities, but of great actualities. We have realized that in publishing its annual direc- tory we have been in a measure identified with the record of its growth and progress, and to some extent responsible for an accurate and truthful exhibit in this regard. We have tried to meet this responsibility with increasing effort from year to year. The period during which we have been publishing the city directory has been one of steady and almost uninterrupted growth. A comparison of our first directory with the present one would reveal a great many interesting facts, and much forgotten local history. Suffice it to say that during that period Indianapolis has had a great growth. The present di- rectory contains 46,150 names. This enumeration includes, besides the city proper, Haugh- ville, Brightwood, Irvington, West Indianapolis and North Indianapolis, all of which are properly suburbs of the city. At the rate of three persons to a name, which is a fair and moderate estimate, the above enumeration would give a population of 138,450. We estimate the suburban population at 14,000. Deducting this from the total would leave 124,450 as the population within the corporate limits of the city. We think this estimate very nearly correct.


The occasion seems appropriate to congratulate the citizens of Indianapolis on its steady growth, the healthy condition of its trade, and its bright prospects for the future. There is reason to believe that the causes which have contributed to the growth of the city in the past will continue to do so in a still greater degree. Its trade is in a remark- ably healthy condition, and steadily improving. Its manufacturing interests, already large, are rapidly increasing. The discovery and introduction of natural gas has given a healthy impetus to the growth of the city, which will certainly increase from year to year. The benefits of this cheap and cleanly fuel have just begun to be realized by the citizens, and are hardly known to outsiders. When they become fully understood they can not fail to prove a great addition to the attractions of the city, and an important factor in its growth. For these, and other reasons, we take pleasure in congratulating the people of Indianapolis on its present condition and future prospects, and inviting the public to study the evidences of its business and resources presented in this volume.
