An interested railroad man in this city
has private advices that this compromise
does not extend to the territory claimed
by the Snake River Valley railroad-only
to that of the Clearwater Valley road
The Riparia division of the O. K * y.
system is being built by the Snake River
Valley company. The Snake River Val
lev company was organized to aCcommo-
date the district west and south Of Lew
ston and il is now the intention to
prosecute development i'll this direction
with all possible haste. The Riparia-
Lewiston division, it is claimed, is in no
way involved in the conditions of the
renewed truce and work will begin al
once on this extension.
II has also DEVELOPED in railroad circles
that the 2. & I. y. road, which is being
constructed from Weiser through the
Seven Devils to Salmon river and Snake
river, is a realization OF plan of Charles
Francis Adams, outlined when he was
president of the Union Pacific aud now
being executed To ultimately become a
supply artery To the Lewiston gateway.
The p. * |. y. road will meet the Snake
River valley road at the mouth of Sal
mon river. and the conditions OF the
truce do not interfere with these con
nec,ions being made this year.
The truce has no conditions worse than
the reputed compromise. The truce runs
only six months. All the features OF
compromise that might have been unfa-
vorable are now limited to six months.
This is good news

Lewiston Milling Co, Ltd. are
coming to the front with their -four.
Our Clearwater -four is getting to be
popular as it makes more, better and
white bread than any other brand, being
made from the choice wheat of the
Lewiston Valley. Ask your grocer for
the Clearwater -four made at home. II
you want to make a snow white angel
food try our 1900 patent, specially
prepared for high grade pastry and
fancy baking
Lewiston teller. [volume] (Lewiston, North Idaho) 1878-1900, 1900-02-07
The Logic OF That Truce.

The dispatches announce that the truce
the part al the o, r. x y. road IN the
Clearwater hasIu has been extended.
This extension could be no worse than
the compromise which was announced a
few days ago. Ii was announced that
the compromise excluded the .. K. < y.
from the Clearwater region indefinitely.
The latter announcement means, if il
means anything, that the o. X, * n.
company has entered compact 20 build
40 roads in the Clearwater district for a
period OF six months, This is surely no
worse than the compromise 1t is better
than the permanent compromise which
substituted exclusion for suspension OF
operations.
The agreement of the two roads to do
no construction work in the Clearwater
basin for six months can have no deleter-
ions effects upon the present trade, the
development or the future prospects OF
the commercial interests of this district
that would not have resulted from the
agreement to make this condition per
petual. The logical meaning of tn,
truce is that the o. X. & n. agrees Il
wait six months before building to tn,
interior wheat belt. II was the under
standing week ago that the o. X. < n
had agreed to withdraw from this felt
indefinitely. The six months truce as
substitute for compromise is victor,
for the o II. < n. company and to tina
extent ii is favorable 20 the interests o
this district

My dear Smith: Your pointer was

this one from St. Paul to Chicago over
the Wisconsin Central Ry. I retired
about 10 p. IN, and enjoyed good

that was when the porter punched me
and said: "Mr. Brown, please don't snore
