HIP! HIP!! HUKRAil!!!
A Patent to Issue fOl the TOwnSite Of
HALEY Within 80 Days.

A letter to the editor OF the TINES
from a gentleman who is very proml-
nently identified with the administra-
ton, conveys the welcome Information
that the General Land Office has
agreed to take up the HALEY Desert
Land entry out of its regular ORDER
and that it is "sure as death" that a
patent will issue at once, as the pa
pers in the case have already been
critically examined by several leading
lawyers, and nothing stands in the
way. The patent may therefore be
confidently looked for within 80 days

W.P. EMMERT BACK.
He Would Lease the Hotel, II 1t We're
Completed.

Hc VVulu AcaSo tue HOteIs IL IL we're
Completed.
w. P. Emmert, Of Freeport, Illinois,
who spent last summer III HALEY, ar
rived yesterday, having come out to
see how the country was getting
along. He heard such good reports
of us, back East, that he has no long
er any doubt Of our prosperous future.
Before coming he had made up his
mind as to what he proposed to do,
and If the new hotel had been COM
pleted would have made the COM
pany all offer. He has lot of new
furniture which he could use to fur
nish it, and would run it in st-class
style. But he would raise everything
himself, as much as possible, as the
only profitable way of running no.
tel. For instance, he would rent the
Strahorn ranch, across the river, found
a dairy, procure his own cream, but
ter and cheese, raise his own veg.
etables, keep about so hogs, few
head of beef cattle, etc. But Mr..
Emmert does not believe the hotel
can be completed short of six weeks.
and as it will take 80 days to furnish
it, at the best, it will be the first Of
June before he can open. He will
therefore think the matter over before
he makes an offer, and will remain
here a couple of weeks before making
up his mind.
Mr.. Emmert left here last fall partly
disguised with the slowness of the
country, and went to Chicago, where
he had very desirable position will

but his health has not been very goot
since, and this and the fact that hi
family desire to come to Idaho to live
for few years, at least, caused hin
to come back to us. If he can ge
into paying business, he will remain
and bring out his family.

ing laid with standard gage iron. This

was swung across the third crossing.
There is srestie nine hundred feet long
