institution Of that nature naturally reflects
upon . community, the basiness benefits ac-
crued are Of no small consideration. Stu

Willard In LewistOH.

From Hon. Norman Buck. who arrived
here from Lewiston last evening. w1 learn
that Willard briefly addressed the citizens
there ON the suhjec: Of connecting them with
the railroad system either at Dayton or Texas
Ferry, and expressed the opinion that the
time was not ripe for the construction OF any
railroad TO Lewiston At present, more espec'
ially as the company intend Increasing the
number of steamers and facilitating the nav
ication OF Snake river, - the increasing
trsde Of Northern Idaho requires. Mr.. VIII
lard further said that the subject of rail
road up the Clearwater, TO tap the Camas
Prairie country, was under consideration,
and he believed the construction Of such a
railroad would prove r paying investment.
II Is eert.in that Northern Idaho viii. in
due time, be connected with both the o. Z.
IN. and Transcontineutal railroad systems,
and we can but urge the thrifty citizens OF
that fertile country to hasten the day by
using all their energy to develope and adver,
tise to the world the dormant resources OF
that rich and extensive. but little known re-
gion.

Mr. 4 B. Rogers. chief engineer Of the
Mour tain division of the Canadian Pacific.
asd who is nov in this city, has travelled
over and explored the wild and mountainous
country OF British America more than any
other living man. 1t is this gentleman who,
after Ions and tireless search finally discov'
cred what is known As Kicking Horse Pass.
and locates 8 line through the Rockies at
that point, thereby saving the construction
Of 80 miles Of road. This gentleman's di-
vision extends over $50 miles OF wild and
seemingly impassable mountain ranges, and
TO him is due the credit OF locating suIta-
bic and practicable line. He has already 10.
Gated from the summit of the Rockies to the
plains bordering on the east. and this sum
mer he will run q line down the vest slope.
The gentleman informs us that he will
have five parties sgeregatins 100 men, in the
field tins coming summer and he intends to
have the locating work in his whole division
done this fall. In answer TO the inquiry
as TO when the Canadian Pacific would he
ready for traffic. the gentleman said he be
lieyed that three working years would GER

~ Willard compLmented the energy and lib

the substantial character of many Of the

which prevails. On being asked concerning
his plans with reference to building branch
roads into Spokane Falls, he assured his
auestioners that the road up Hangman creek
would certainly be built, ne had promised
that two years ago He mentioned the
scheme of a new road from the Gear d Allen
region, to connect with the \. 7. at some
point between that city and Eathdram,
which will he one Of the things which can be
depended upon; thus bringing that vast ag.
ricultural, timber and mining region directly
tributary to the Falls. The read through
the Big Bend country was also discussed,
and its connection to Spokane Falls was al.
luded to IS = natural conclusion.
He spoke also of the certainty Of a road to
the Colville country Is soon as the develop
ment Of that region should demand it. In
