Boise On the Main Line,

Boise On the Main Line.
n most important project
involving the construction Of
thirty miles of new road and
the placing of Boise upon the
main line has been decided or
by the managent of the Oregon
Short Line. A party of en-
gineers is making the neces'
sary surveys and doing the
preliminary work, which will
be pushed so that Boise PEG.
pie will hear the daily whistle
of the through trains in the
near future. The matter was
definitely decided when the
Hartman party passed over
that part of the line last week.
At present Boise is situated
20 miles off the main line, and
it will be necessary to build 80
miles of track to make the
main line pass through that
city. This is the work that
has been decided upon and it
will be pushed to completion.
1t will not only benefit the PEG.
pie of Boise, but will straighten
out the main line considerable,
thus enabling the railroad to
make better time between Pc.
catello and Huntington. This
news will be hailed with joy
by the people of Boise as they
have been fighting and work
ing to be put on the main line
for years and now that their
dreams are about to. be real
lied they will appreciate the
spirit of progress that animates
the Short Line management.
The Boise move and the St.
Anthony branch will make 70
miles of new road to be con.
structed the present year, in.
volving the expenditure of
many hundreds of thousands
of dollars and giving employ.
ment to a host of workmen.
There could be no better evi.
dence of the roads prosperity.
The new estray law provides

The purchase of the Buffalo
group of mines by the De La.
mar company is very signif-
cant. This corporation is not
engaged in the brokerage bus
mess. They buy mines for the
purpose of working them. The
fact that practical agents of
this strong, earnest company
have purchased that great
mine is assurance of its i'm.
portance. This deal was made
after due deliberation, and not
in the furry of a stampede.
1t was made after all the worst
possible statements had been
made to justify the actions of
Clark and Sweeney. 1t was
made when only personal
knowledge of values could
have influenced the men who
were investing their money.

SETTLED At LAST
The City to Pay the Cost Of
Charge.
END0F BRI DGE CONTROVERSY
Original Specifications Did Not Call for
PlilhG Under the Abutmenty. His
tory OF the Difference On
Thirty-fourth Street.

The bridge controversy has been set
tied at last and it is believed that the
work on the structures may now pro
coed unhamrored.
Up to this date there have heen all
sorts of disastrous ana vcxatious de.
.ay>. but for which at least one OF the
bridges. and possibly both Of them
would be Cnen to the public
At first it was found that the an
nroaches to the bridges were so stcep
that man could hardly climb up
them. After many months ana nuner-
Gus conferences. the pans were chang
cd, the company's time extended, ana
IN the course OF time the structural
iron began to arrive
ES and by Work was commenced on
the foundation Of the Twenty-f fifth
street bridge. when all Of q sudden 1t
was discovered that the specifications
should have called for piling under the
aputments The original specifications
required piling under the DENTS, but
only concrete under the abutments
This additional work would cost
about $4,000 and Of course, the COM
many did not want to pay it. Nei,he,
did the City. Consequently there was
another hang-up. The matter was
brought before the council several
times and postponed once or twice.
Finally, at the last meeting. it was re
ferred TO the Bridge Committee ana
city attorney with power to act
This committee and Mr.. Newton got
together yesterday and decided that
the city was responsible for the addi-
tionaf expense incurred for the adtii-
tioral work. The company was, ac-
cG;d:ngly. instructed to go ahead and
complete the pi!ing. which is already
about half done on the Twenty fifth
street foundations ..@
This settles the matter and puts ar
end to the controversy, which bid fair
at one time 10 cause stoppage Of the
work, and another long delay. In fact,
the company, at one stage of the pro-
|cecdings, actually ordered the work
stopped until the matter was settled
This order however, was countermanl-
cd before it could interfere with the
progress Of the construction
In the case of the Thirty-fourth
street bridge, in addition to the piiinE
under the abutments. the city will have
to arrange for straddling the sewer
main with the bent foundations. No
calculation for this main was made
when the original specifications were
drawn.
II WIFI be necessary at each bent to
pile on either side of the sewer anC
brace across it to the piles in order 70
make a foundation.
The company's representative here
promises that if there are no further
changes i'm the plans and no further in
terruptions, the JOB Will be completed
in the shortest possible time
