train into Middle valley and perhaps
Salubria, as the moment the heavy
pieces IN the canyon are removed the
track can be showed ahead without
impediment as the grade is already
completed for miles beyond the rock
work in the canyon. Mr.. Corey had
a large outfit in Ogden and another
down on the Snake near Riparia on
the work there. Both have been
brought here and he went to work
last Monday.
Smith, the Provo contractor who is
to take hold of the Seven Devils end
Of the grade, has not yet arrived.
Mr. Nelson, heavy Spokane con-
tractor, has been in Weiser during
the past week and has secured sub
stantial contract on the road he will
at once be hurried into Council val
ley with 400 men and an outfit IN
proportion.
The addition of such outfits as Or
man & Crook, Corey, Smith and Mel
son are going to accomplish wonders

paratively short period between now
and winter time, much as there is tt
10, and it is extremely probable tina
the cold season will find the Ell
gine practically into the Devils.
