D. L. Halstead Enjoying Sojourn in Redlands, Cal.

Redlands, Cal. 114 West Palm Aye. Publishers Republican: We, Mrs. Lucy M.cCoombs, Mrs. Florence Clark; of Lafayette, and myself, landed here Monday evening at 7:30, having left Rensselaer on Saturday, April 27tfi, about 3:30 p. m. We came over the C. B. & Q. Ry. from Chicago to Denver. From Denver to Ogden, Utah,_pver the D. & R. G. Ry., and the rest of the way over the S. P. Ry„ being the most sceqic route in the United States, and we stopped over about 24 hours at each of our stopovers, at Colorado arid Manitou Springs, Salt Lake City, San Francisco and Les Angeles. We also stopped forty minutes in Denver, long enough to go through the state house and see the court bouse and some other places of interest. Redlands is strongly republican. Twenty-five years ago is was nearly all democratic. Many residents came here from the east. Yesterday afternoon we listened to a good speech by Ex-Senator A. J. Beveridge, of Indiana, and think he preached nothing but the truth. Under separate cover we are sending you some Redlands’ literature. Expect to start back to Rensselaer on May 22nd. ’ Sincerely yours, D. L. HALSTEAD.
