Las Vegas, Nevada, in 1910 was a young railroad town of a few hundred residents, built on land auctioned in 1905 when the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad made the valley a division point. Its economy rested on the railroad's depot, yards, and workshops, along with the ranching and farming that the artesian springs made possible on the valley floor. Clark County had been carved out of Lincoln County only a year earlier, in 1909, and the new county seat was still finding its civic footing, with few paved streets and most buildings of wood or adobe. Residents would have known the town mainly as a stop on the desert line between Los Angeles and Salt Lake City, a place defined by trains, water, and the heat of the Mojave edge.
