schedule was arranged all the for route said he
way through in order that time
might be taken at the important
jljiuic iieeus to oe general
work done on the roads with the
drag and the railroad crossings
need considerable grading in
many places With some surfac
ing the entire route through Ne
braska will be practically ideal
in every respect The tires which
we have on our car are in excel
lent shape after a trip of nearly
2300 miles the greater portion of
which was through this state
That is sufficient recommendation

north of town Quite a number
of the town folks were out to see
fhe start and a free outside ex
hibition was sriven in which all
the actors got a good ducking
and cue fellow proved to the
crowd that he could not swim
The distance traveled was about
three miles and various obstacles
were encountered and overcome
S II Stilgebouer was business
visitor on the north divide be-
1 was encountered on the trip-
less than could be found on
an of the other established or
proposed across the state high
ways That little stretch is
near Imperial and is on a piece
of newly made road said Mr
Maynard It will in time be
worked out so that it will give
no trouble to tourists who travel
over 1 lie new highway across Ne
braska
According to the map making
parry of the new route there will
be four feeders or
tal highways which will turn tour
ists into the Omaha Denver route
The Waubonsie trail across Iowa
running for Keokuk to Fort Mad
ison and then to Nebraska City
will be one of the principal ones
and will connect with highway
at this point This route has been
laid out for some time with the
exception of from Lincoln to Ne
braska City This will be blazed
today the party leaving here for
the Otoe county town during the
forenoon for that purpose
The Blue Grass trail across
Iowa will be another feeder to
the new trans continental route
This highway swerves from Fort
Madison and passes through Bur
lington and ends at Omaha where
it connects with the newly estab
lished route through the South
Platte country Still another
highway is the river-to-river or
newspaper route which extends
bell
S
pecial Prices
from Davenport la through Des
Moines to Omaha The fourth
feeder to the South Platte high
way is the old established mili
tary route called the Iowa trans
continental which originates at
Clinton la and passes through
Marshalltown and Cedar Rapids
to Omaha
If we do not have a passen
ger over this route until 1915 I
estimate there will be fully 20000
to 30000 tourists through the city
of Lincoln and over the Omaha
Denver highway that year said
Mr Maynard last night That
year will witness thousands of
autoists going across country to
attend the big Panama exposi
tion al San Francisco and by thai
time the South Platte route will
be so well known and so widely
advertised that the majority of
the travelers will take it said
he
All of the Iowa roads have
either established connections
with highways extending farther
cast or are now completing ar
rangements for doing so accord
ing to the party The Waubon
sie trail which connects with the
Omaha Denver route at Lincoln
has through highway arrange
ments made as far east as Indian
apolis and others have already
connected through as far as Chi
