Another Pioneer Gone.

One by one the pioneers drop by the
wayside. Death marks them for his
own, and the rugged, hardy life that
braved the perils of the frontier, that
suffered hardship and privation to open
the path to civilization, wealth and
luxury for all future ages, is called
away just rs competence and comfort
smiled upon him. We are called upon
this week to chronicle the death of one
of the early settlers of Lewiston-our
friend and neighbor, August Benson.
For many months he has been an in
valid and little by little health,
strength, and life itself, gave way to
the ravages of the disease. Quietly on
Saturday afternoon, October 4, his life
passed away. He was fully conscious
till the last and called the various
members of his household about him
for last farewell. He was buried
Monday the 9Th, the funeral rites being
under the auspices Of the Masonic
fraternity. The following facts briefly
outline his life: He was born in
Sweden, March Is, 1884. He early en-
tered upon seafaring life and, drift
ing westward with the tide of immi-
grafton, reached California in 1852.
Here he followed mining and packing
till, during the gold excitement in Oro
Fino in 1861, he came into this locality
Since 1862 he has made Lewiston his
home, being at all times actively en-
gagged in business. He married, in
1871, Miss Anna MOckel. His business
fiourished and about the happy home
his industry and thrift created, grew
his loving family of one son and three
daughters, who to-day mourn his loss.

NUMBER 3.
Railroad News,

The report that the 20" road had
bought the Hunt lines, as related last
week, is still further confirmed by this
weeks Spokesman dispatches. The
Review, however, denies the report
and atfirms that President Hill of the
Great Northern has floated the Hunt
bonds in New York City. But whether
Hill or the 20" floats the Hunt bonds
makes but little difference to Lewiston.
The general result re mains the same
Either road will build from Butte over
the Lo Lo and down the Clearwater
past Lewiston and join the Hunt sys-
tenn near Dayton. The Oregonian
dispatches seem to favor the alliance
with Hill and assert his attention of
reaching Portland over the above
named route. The line chosen from
Butte has long been considered a most
feasible one. 1t has the advantage Of
being the shortest route across the con-
tinent by more than two hundred
miles and 1t will open up q country
now undeveloped and rich in resources.
Lewiston thus placed on grand trunk
line will, with her projected branch
and competing lines, soon develop into
the commercial metropolis, that, from
her advantageous position, she is des-
tined to be.
The Northern Pacific branch now
building here is making excellent
progress toward the completion of its
line. The difficulty at Moscow that
obstructed the tracklaying has been
adjusted and force of one thousand
men are rapidly constructing the track
from that point to Kendrick. The
track laying machine used on the
line has the capacity Of laying track at
the rate of two miles per day. The
grade between Moscow and Kendrick
is now complete and nothing can now
hinder the completing of the line to
that point. No further trouble is an
ticipated at the reservation or at the
river. From the reservation to town
the road bed will be complete by
December 18th. A force of men are
now at work on the river front within
the city limits. The entire river front
will be riprapped and the whole point,
covered by the depot and grounds,
graded we'll above high water mark.
The protection afforded to the city by
this process will be very great.

ED. TzLLER.-In your last Issue you
ask where al the people weEe that the

eastern rule Of s to1 for every voter,
that there should be 1000 inhabitants
in this county. That rule 10 never
applied in the newly settled west where
the population is largely composed Of
single men. Even the old established
rule os 8 to l for every public scholar
cannot be applied in the west - that
rule would only give us 1904 inhabi-
tants. Now that your question carries
with it an insinuation that the enum-
orator has not done his duty, I wish to

Of them lived upon the reservation Out
Of the enumerator's Jurisdiction
about 20 voters were properly enumer
