FOURTEEN MILES LAID.
Progress Reported On the P. I. & N.
Road

Lewis Hall, treasurer of the Pacific,
Idaho & Northern railroad came down
from Weiser yesterday and is at the
Knutsford. He stated that the steel
has been laid on fourteen miles of the
road, and track-laying is progressing
fast on eighteen miles of grade now
ready. 1t is expected the line will be
completed to the Seven Devils district
by winter. 1t is also very probable, he
stated. that the road will be built into
the Buffalo Hump.
Mr.. Hall said that labor was scarce
and hard to obtain. Still the contrac-
tors have maintained a force of about
500 men steadily at work. The forces
are recruited in patches from Portland,
Seattle, Salt Lake and other cities, but
there is not the great masses of unem-
ployed men that there formerly were,
and there are very few idle men look
ing for work.
