RED CLOUD.
Her Street Railway, Electric Lights
i
Her "Water Wous and
Enterprises Generally
m Red Cloud, though scarcely over a
dozen years old is one of the bright
and shining lights anions Western
Nebraska cities. Her enterprise is
wonderful. Four years ago there
wa not a foot of sidewalk in the
city, tc-day there are many miles four
3e.:rs ago there was not a sign of a
street lamp in the the city, to-day
she has one of the finest systems of
I electric lights in the west, four years
ago if ynu had said that in the year
-'SS there would be a costly system of
vwatcr works in operation people
would have laughed at you, but to
day the stand pipe, engine house and
four miles of mains arc living wit
noshes of the fact that we have a fine
system, four years a so nothing but
an old wooden bridge spanned the
great Republican river south of tile
city, to-dav one of the fiuest iron
bridges in the west stretches across
its placid waters, a monument to the
enterprise of our city and county.
Four years ago if a person had talked
about Red Cloud having a street rail
way he would certainly have been dub
bed a fit subject for the insane asylum,
yet the track is graced, the iron be
ing laid and the cars en route for the
city, the whole line to be completed
by Maj 1. a first class line in every
particular and a credit to the
growing and enterprising city
of the valley. Of all of the
above enterprises there are none that
the people take more pride in than the
street railway. It shows that foreign
capitalists have their eyes on our grow
ing city and purpose to invest their cap
ital where it will do them the most
good i e in Red Cloud, As to manu
facturing capacity Red Cloud has in
the Republican river, thousands of
horse power easily obtained and as for
location for manufacturing there is
not a city in Nebraska that has better
advantages, and as to inducements,
our people arc always ready to assist
in all that come this way of what so
ever character. The city is located
on the famous B. & M. railway and
in about 90 days more will have the
second line of toad, the Missouri
Pacific, and then wc shall be prepared
to compete with many of the laiger
cities. Other railroads are heading
this way and our people arc willing
to aid them liberally and will give
them money to come. Red Cloud has
only about four thousand inhabitants
yet she has all of the advantages of a
city ten times as large, besides being
located in one of the healthiest por
tions of the west, naturally drained
beautifully situated, taxes compara
tively light, fine streets, substantial
brick storerooms, and a host of other
advantages that tell ef an enterprising
people. The population will be near
ly doubled this year and people who
are desirous of locating in the west
stould come to Bed Cloud as she, is
hound to he the coming city of
Western Nebraska,

way when completed, which will be
in about 30 days, will bs one of the
greatest booms ever given to this city.
The material is all first-class, fine oak
ties, steel rails, fine teams, and ele
gant cars, together with a solid road
bed will make the franchise a valu
able one to the stockholders and a
suurce of great pride to our people.
The projectors deserve great credit
