pavilion. restaurant and other attrac-
tions on the highest point, in case the
deal Is made. The view from the heights
Is a magnificent one. Looking off across
the lower hills, the eye rests on snow-
clad peaks a hundred miles to. the
southwark. The fertile jefferson valley
winds in and out among the peaks,
beautiful as poets dream. There is
a good view of the mines iof Butte, but
1t Is seldom that the smoke veil floats
away enough for the lower city to be
seen.
Cable, Trolley, or Cogs.
Three plans are under consideration
for the proposed road. rhe first is to
extend the present electric line, gig,
tagging up tn hill to the top. This
would make line some six or seven,
miles in length with no heavier grade
than the one just before reaching the
gardens. Another is to make it partly
trolley line, and the rest a cog wheel,
road. like the one UP Pixies Peak. This,
will be of course much shorter. The
third is to make it a cable line, the car
taking a straight course from the gar-V
dens to the top. This would be the
shortest of all. A preliminary survey
would be necessary to determine which
would be most practicable.
The project looks like daring one,
but the great popularity of the gardens
and the interest the people have taken
In that fine pleasure resort has led Mr..
Wharton to believe that they will take
kindly 10 the new extension. He Is
heartily in favor of it, and believes 1t
could be built for not to exceed $780,
600, perhaps less than that
That the road would be we'll patron
ICED. seems beyond question. 1t would
offer the finest view and the finest ride
possible anywhere around Butte. and
the people are taking more kindly to
home attractions, of whatever kind.
The days of Sunday excursions out of
the city are going by-nay, almost gone
and the people ask only q few more
attractive home places to go to. when
they will forsake the railroad entirely.
