Las Vegas in 1910 was a railroad town of roughly 800 people, shaped by the line that reached it in 1905, when the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad, a Union Pacific affiliate, auctioned lots and laid out its townsite. The depot was the town's main link to Los Angeles and Salt Lake City, and freight and passengers moving through it supported the nearby mining camps and the new supply trade that followed the Goldfield boom to the north. Clark County had been split from Lincoln County in 1909, so the young town was also building its own courthouse and local government. Residents knew the place mainly as a division stop on the line and a water stop in the desert, where the railroad's arrival had brought the town into being only a few years earlier.
