pletcd its innictist. ftuInc. which extends
through the mountains east and south
east from Elliston, II distance of nine
miles. II is not the intention of the' com
pany to- lnit the hnnc into operation this
fall, but a. large force of choppers will be
employed all winter and the wood fioatcd
down AS SOON as the water runs in the
spring. Over $50 men are thus employed
at the present time and the force will la
doubled by ncst month. All the wood
will bc landed at and shipped from Ellis

considerable boom the past few weeks
and guarantees its position as one of the
most important towns i'm the county. Su
pe~rintcndant Shields is authority for the
