Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Annual Report of the Railroad Commission of Nevada: For the Year Ending April 10th, 1908 During the last quarter Of a century there has been an enormous development Of the railroad system Of the United States, the mileage of track in this country being about equal to that of all the rest Of the world. Nothing could be more suggestive Of the immensity Of this development than the circumstance that here, in the State of Nevada, with perhaps not more than one inhabitant to the square mile, we have, as nearly as we can get the exact data at this time, miles Of railroad actively Operating within our borders, with another great transcontinental line across the State now in course Of construction and several shorter ones in contemplation. Speaking comparatively, it may be said that Nevada has at this time more miles Of railroad in proportion to population than any other State in the union. The increase has been rapid during the last six or eight years, and there is good promise that the increase will con tinne apace for many years to come.
