The building IF an electric railroad
from Fletcher down the Little canyon to
Peck and from there down the Big can
yon, across the Clearwater to a juucture
with the Northern Pacific on the north
side Of the river is a worthy enterprise by
P. E. Dean, q merchant Of Fletcher.
The road will be 4 narrow gauge and
and the weight Of the cars will carry
them down an easy grade to the river.
Electricity supplied by the water Of the
Big canyon will pull them up. The
total cost Of the road and rolling stock
necessary to equip the road is estimated
At 1900 mile, or total Of s., 500 for the
entire distance Of II miles. The amount
to be expended in installing electrical
machinery and moter power in the Big
canyon and other incidental expenses
will not exceed 10000, making :
grand total Of $4,000 to be used
In construction. This amount can be
raised in very short time among the

are interested in its success.
No bridge will be built across the
