SALMON RIyER WAGON ROAD.
Iaaho County Free Press


The board Of county commissioners
have contracted for the construction
of bridge across White Bird creek,
at cost to the county Of $3.50. The
grading and approaches will probably
cost $3.50 in addition, which will
bring the cost up 10 about 81 900.
The building Of this bridge is the
first step towards the opening Of the
long talked-of wagon road to southern
Idaho, a bill for which is now pending
| in Congress. Mr.. Larirner received
a letter from Delegate Dubois re-
Gently, stating that the outlook for
the the passage of the bill was most
favorable. In this event, the road 10
as good as built, and the fact that this
county has incurred the expense Of
the White Bird bridge will have
weight in Congress in facilitating the
passage of the bill by showing the
/ earnestness Of our intentions in the
matter Of the proposed road.
| The press Of southern Idaho are al
50 awaking to the urgency Of the pro-
posed wagon road, AMI every sup
post is being given to the measure.
1t is indeed matter for surprise that
the subject was not long since agitat-
ed and pushed to successful con
summation, and but for the opposi-
ton in Lewiston to the measure, the
road would have been built by the
( Government ten years ago. i. is bad
policy to count chickens before they
are hatched, but the indications now
are that the wagon road bill will be
endorsed by Congress, in which event
the money for it's construction will be
promptly forthcoming, and Idaho
county as well as her sisters through
which the road will run, will receive
! immense accessions OF revenue and
population from the new Territory
which the road will open up and de-
velop.
II is impossible for those not ac-
quainted with the region through
which the road will run to realize its
extent, the resources ii contains and
the great possibilities for the pro-
duction of mineral wealth which has
already been exposed. In Warrens
alone there is quartz enough in sight
to afford employment to 500 men,
which is now worthless for want of
easy access to the camp. With the
completion of the proposed wagon
road, every quartz ledge in Warrens
camp will possess an actual money
value which to-day could scarcely be
given away. The country beyond is
greater aud richer than anything yet
discovered in Idaho Territory, and
the interests already existing there
are seriously retarded by reason OF
lack of proper road facilities. In
fact, the proposed road will develop
all the unexplored country that Is
left on the south side OF Salmon river,
and when that is opened up there
will be nothing left for Us to accom-
plish, except the development Of the
Elk city country. where roads have
yet to be built which will speedily
demand attention. Meanwhile the
Salmon river project is in fair way
to become an accomplished fact,
which is glory enough for one day.

pAYETTE CORRESPONDENCE.

ED. WoaLD: As we write the rain
IS pouring down. Snow is disap-
pearing, but there's ice, ice, ice, and
1t is dangerous to be safe out Of
doors. The use of a wagon Is thing
not to be thought Of.
There is reported quite a loss Of
stock already. We hear Mr.. Nc.
Quade, Of Squaw creek, has lost six
ty head Of cattle; others smaller
numbers. Horses, too, seem to have
some disease that unwinds their NOR
tai coil.
We were shown yesterday a copy
OF the IDAHO WORLD Of Jan. IL, 1872,
and to those who were in Boise coun-
ty then, and have resided here since.
1T would be interesting. 1t tells of
those then active and gay, taking
part in the festivities of party, that
now are sleeping the long sleep,
living only in memory. Some, as a
lady who was of the young girls
then, remarked, are gone, some are
married and live far away, others,
though still here, are, oh, how chang
ed. We find "Civis" giving, in a
letter from Granite Creek, history
of leap year ball, given by Mrs.
Ihebo. The committee were ladies'
Mrs. Dougherty, Mrs. Bennett, Mrs
Gibbs, Of Boston, Miss Sarah Young,
Miss Mary Valentine, Mrs. Nunnaly
aud Mrs. Jack. The floor managers
were Mrs. Hemsley, Miss Minnie
O'Brien, Mrs. Paxton, Miss Davidson,
Miss Mary Buckley. He ends By
telling the editor, George Ainslie,
that he was fool for not being there.
Then letter by Lazarus" from Cen
terwlle tells how Frank Harman
stands off, unaided, 5. K. Goldtrap,
e. c. Dudley and John Hemsley in a
literary. Subject-woman suffrage.
That is the reason, | suppose, that
women do not vote in Idaho. The
birth recorded is that Of a daughter
born to the wife Of Nick Haug. Ed
itor Ainslie here records winning a
bet of keg Of beer from Nick on
the sex of the baby. No deaths re
corded. As to business, G. 5. Kings
ley is selling off at cost-boots, shoes
and clothing. John Garrecht was
running the Washington Meat Mar
ket in great style. We are informed
here that Cbas. Mautz made the I'm
est kind Of boots and shoes, with a
perfect fit. Ed, Mcguire had great
desire to get forever free from the
bonds of matrimony that bound him
to Mary Aun Mcguire, and 50 goes
the history. The beautiful Misses
O'Brien, the dignihed and graceful
Misses Young are mentioned. Now
lady says all these things are
changed-some east, some west, some
mothers Of happy children, some are
dead. Methinks there would be no
more interesting history than a file OF
old county papers where one has Hv-
ed, laughed aud wept. They are
faithful chroniclers OF events that
happen alike to the rich and the poor
high and low-births, marriages and
deaths. and all that make up the
events Of life. We can see by
them who filled the places in year:
agone that We ourselves are toiling Il
fill to-day. They are the kaleido,
scopes Of time, and the changes, oh
how many and how varied! The pool
die rich. the rich die poor. All i
change. CAEcHALL'

A SLIGHT ILLNESS.
THE OLD ROMAN RECOVERED AND READY
FOR THBPRAY.
he Receives Callers and Consults With Leading
Democratic lihcians-PrsparatiOns
for the Great Reception at
Newark, New Jersey.

NEW YORK, September z. Judge Thur
man awoke shortly after 10 O'Clock this
morning much refreshed after enjoying
nearly thirteen hours Of almost unbroken
sleep. His physician says heis much better
and will suffer no ill effects from his slight
illness. Breakfast will be served in his
parlor and he will probably spend the day
quietly in his room, though he may take
drive about town.
Judge Thurman is all right and his only
regret is that he was unable to speak last
night. He arose at noon and expressed
himself as feeling well, except for little
weakness. Much anxiety has been felt
throughout the country regarding the
Judges condition and he is
very grateful to the people for their
interest in him, and wishes it to be ex-
planned to them that there is nothing in
his condition to excite alarm. He has
simply suffered an attack such as the
strongest is liable to and is now all right,
Judge Thurman put on his dressing
gown and called for the morning papers at
IL O'Clock this morning, He expressed
himself as feeling very much amused over
the iusinustions in some of the papers that
his illness of last evening was due to over
indulgence in Intoxicating liquors. AS a
matter of fact, he said he had taken no
liquor Yesterday except in medicine pre-
scribed by DR.. Goldthwsite for his tenn
porary distressing trouble.
The physician said this afternoon that
Mr.. Thurman would be fully restored to
health this evening.
Mr.. Thurman will be consulted this
evening in regard to tine demonstration at
Newark, N. j., tomorrow; also in refer
eDce to the proposed banquet.
A large number of distinguished politi-
clans callsd, but, with the exception OF
Thomas Mast, the Judge was unable to
receive them.
Telegrams and letters wishing him
speedy recovery have been in from all
quarters. Mrs. Thurman saw some stories
in the Columbus newspapers, became wor-
ried and telegraphed asking whether she
should come on A telegram to her last
night was not enough entirely to ease her
mind, and Allen W. Thurman telegrsphed
her to-day that his father was all right,
and if she must worry let it be about
young Allen, whose appetite is increasing
at q terrible rate.
Judge Thurman will leave the Fifth
avenue hotel tomorrow evening and 90 to
Jersey City, whence Col. Brice's private
car will take him to Newark, where he is to
speak. After the meeting, the private car
will be coupled to through train and the
homeward journey begun. Mr.. Thurman
expressed desire to speak to the Demo
Gratis of this city before returning to the
West, but Congressman wilkins pre-
vailed upon him to save his strength for
the Newark mass meeting.
