Railroad and Stage to Prescott.
The cheaper route to Prescott is from San Francisco via Dos Palmas,
(160 miles east of Los Angeles) and stage thence through or via
Ehrenburg--Dos Palmas to Prescott being about 200 miles.
Express trains leave San Francisco daily at 4 P. M.--arrive at Dos
Palmas 2:10 A. M. second night.
Third class trains leave San Francisco daily at 4:30 P. M.--arrive at
Dos Palmas at 2:10 P. M. third night.
Stage leaves Dos Palmas immediately after arrival of the train, every
other night.
There are two rates of fare to Prescott via Dos Palmas and Ehrenburg.

The most comfortable, but more expensive route, is via rail to Yuma
River steamer to Ehrenburg, and stage thence to Prescott. But this
connection depends upon the running of the steamer up the river
from Yuma, of which the departures are irregular. Trains leave San
Francisco: first class, at 4 P. M.--arrive at Yuma second morning at
8:30 A. M.; third class, at 4:30 P. M.--arrive at Yuma third morning at
8:30 A. M.
Fare from San Francisco to Yuma: first class, $45; third class, $34.
Yuma to Ehrenburg: cabin, $15; deck, $10. Ehrenburg to Prescott, $33.
Through tickets are not issued by this route.
A daily stage connection is made from Yuma via Phœnix, by which route
through tickets are sold from San Francisco to Prescott, at first class
rates, $117; third class being $106.
