O. r. & N. EXTENSION.

J. Alexander, a prominent
merchant of Lewiston, Idaho,
has received a telegram from
a high railroad source that the
O. K. & N. would immediate
ly commence operation on the
extension of a railroad line to
Lewiston. 1t has been under
stood to be the boast of the
O. r. & N. that when the
Northern Pacific entered this
field the former company
would show a bitter competi-
ton, and the information re-
ceived is the general subject of
discussion on the streets. The
company will probably extend
their line from Wallula up
Snake river valley, tapping the
grain territory of the high
lands by chutes, as several sur
veys by that route have al
ready been made. By that
route the road would run on
the north side of the Snake
river and cross the Clearwater
river to Lewiston.
Discussion of the matter has
developed the fact that two
weeks ago a party of {. B. z.
surveyors left Uniontown for
the Pierce City country to
work on the western approach
to the Lo Lo Pass. This
company has had a survey
party working on the Montana
side for some time past, but
recently returned to Billings,
owing to heavy SHOWS. 1t is
stated that they will resume
work April |, and will join the
. party from this side on the
{ Lo Lo trail some time during
the coming summer, complet.
ing the survey. Billings is
now the western terminus oil
F., the c. B. & @. and it is gen
orally understood to be tho
policy of the company to push

SNAKE RIVER CANYON
Interesting Discussion of Them
by Prof. Lindgren.

lIltNi Sos''o 1890
by Prof. Lindgren.
The San Francisco Mining
and Scientific Press says: At
a meeting on Dec. ~, 1897,
Waldemar Lindgren of the
United States geological sur.
vey read paper on "The
Canyons of the Salmon and
Snake rivers, Idaho The
little known region between
Idaho and Oregon, where the
! Snake river and its mighty
tributary, the Salmon, join is
one of exceptional interest.
In this vicinity lies the eastern
margin of the great Columbia
lava fields, the shore line SO to
speak, where the molten flows
we're arrested by the mountaia
ranges of Idaho. Near Weiser
Snake river leaves the broad
open valley occupying such a
large part of southern
Idaho, turns northward and
flows across the great lava
masses in a canyon which Mr..
Lindgren personally assures
the editor of the Mining and
Scientific Press, in grandeur is
only second to the canyon Of
Colorado, in its abrupt trench
cut to a depth of over 5000
feet in the basaltic plateau.
The deepest and most impress
sive part lies in the vicinity Of
the Seven Devils, a group of
peaks rising to elevations ex-
ceedlng 5000 feet on the east
ern side Of the river. From
tho summit of these there is a
sharp and continuous slope Of
5000 feet down to the level of
the river. The exposures
along the canyons show from
1000 to 1000 feet of horizontal
lavas, covering a series of
older states and greenstones.
The Salmon river canyon,
for a long distance above its
junction with the Snake, is be-
tween 1000 and 5000 feet deep.
Except in its lower portion, II
IS cut in the rocks of the older
series. Granite rocks, form
ing a large part of the great
Idaho granite area, occupy
large space in Idaho adjacent
to the Columbia lava. In
stead of being OF Archean age
as has been hitherto supposed
the granite is probably post
Carboniferous, as shown by
the contact metamorphism o
the Palenozonic series adjoin
ing on the north.
This series of states, lime
stone, schist and greenstones
says science, present the great
est similarity to the Aurifer
Gus states of the Sierra Ne
vada. Round Crinoid stem
We're found in one of the lime
stone lenses. Excellent ex
posures are found in the lowe
Salmon river canyon and aloni
the Snake river. The Colun
bia lava flows are of Miocen
age. They consist nearly e,
clusively of massive basal
and are piled up one on tn
other in seemingly endless
succession. Slight difference
of structure make the indivi'
ual flows conspicuous, ar
from a distance the exposur
along the canyon side apes
like those of a sedimental
series. The lava flows we
poured out over an exceedin
ly uneven surface of deep v;
leys and precipitous mounta
ranges. The latter tower
above the summit of the la
plateau, while the bottom
the former lies below the lie,
OF the river. Coupling Il
evidence with the fact that t
sediments in the lower Sna
river valley, above Weis
are of great depth, their b
