CELEBRATE
COMPLETION
OF RAILROAD
EL CENTRO, Cal., Dec. 2 (by Asso
ciated Press).—The first passenger
train for San Diego over the San Diego
and Arizona railroad left here yester
day, carrying Governor Campbell of
Arizona and several California offi
cials.
A Week's Celebration
SAN DIEGO, Dec. 2 (by Associated
Press).—Elaborate arrangements have
been made here and in the Imperial
valley, to the east of San Diego, for
the celebration marking the, opening
of the San Diego & Arizona railway,
which, connecting with the Southern
Pacific railroad at Yuma, Ariz., will
make another transcontinental route.
The regular train service between
San Diego and Imperial valley points
started yesterday, and it is announced
that transcontinental trains will be
running over the line by January 1.
The celebration commenced yester
day will be continued until December
6, the first four days having been
allotted to this city and the last two
to Imperial valley cities, which by
this route will have a short outlet
to tide-water. Another feature of the
line on which its builders have laid
emphasis is that it will afford an all
year-round and easy grade from the
East to the Pacific coast. The line
through the mountains of San Diego
county, near the Imperial valley line,
has been built on an easy grade, prac
tically free from snow.
Yesterday, the first day of the cele
bration, was set aside in honor of
John D. Spreckels of this city, who
has devoted more than ten years of
tireless effort to its financing and con
struction. Today will be Harbor day;
Wednesday, December 3, Stadium
day, when events of several kinds
will be staged in San Diego’s great
outdoor arena; Thursday, December
4, will be Balboa Park day, the main
part of the program being held in
the city’s 1,400-acre park. Army and
navy authorities have promised hearty
co-operation in the events, which will
include several parades.
On Friday, December 5, special
trains will take several thousand per
sons from San Diego to Imperial val
ley, where the celebration will be
continued for two days.
