THE BOULDER ROAD.
Something Deer Lodge Should Look Afte

Something Deer Lodge Should Look After.
Our attention is again called TO matter
we alluded to some weeks ago-the con-
structiUn Of u wagon road from Deer Lodge
to Bush's Station on the Butte and Boul-
der road. The distance Is 90 miles. of which
eight miles, between Deer Lodge and Car
bou Is now good road. THIS leaves eight
teen miles OF road to be built and persons
who have been over the route say IL Is an
excellent one. The inquiry may be ''of
what bereat would the road DO If construct
ed ?" A greal deal. The Northern Pacific
Company has announced its intention TO
construct it's road this year from both East
aud West and to carry passengers between
the termiui by stage coach until the gap Is
closed. While it is not probable the gap
will be sufficiently shortened up this year
to induce trans continental travel 10 ia prob
able, If their Land Charter is continued,
that there will be stage line established
and travel be large next year. We need
less than four years and all the eircumstan-
ccs indicate the connection will DO made at
a point not remote from here. When
coaches are put on, the shortest and best
route between Missoula and Bozeman will
b., If the eighteen miles of road mentioned
are built, ola Deer Lodge, Bnsh's and Boul'
der stations. II Is almost an air line route
with more valley and less mountain than
any other. Its selection as the stage route
will at least secure FOR 1t fair investigation
for the rail route, and we have never
doubred that when fairly explored IL would
prove the acceptable one, its large saving
in distance giving 1t precedence over all
others. We have advices that efforts are
being made 10 secure n Post Route from
Bozeman 10 Boulder. If accomplished this
will make a diree; through mail route be-
tween FL. Keogh and Missoula, except over
the 90 miles between Bush's and Deer
Lodge. Now Boulder and Deer Lodge are
the two localities most directly interested
in securing the establishment OF this route.
The circumstances are such That as a matter
OF business we should cause an exploration
ard instrumental survey Of the route by
competent engineer, and secure an estimate
OF tho cost OF constructing wagon road
over rhe eighteen miles. This cannot be
done now but viii be practicable In a few
weeks. In the meantime we trust pub
lic spirited citizens will take hold of the
matter, organize, communicate with citizens
OF Boulder. and be prepared to have the
route explored As soon AS the SNOW will
permit. We are assured the Boulder peo-
pie will heartily cooperate.
