ShOshOne's Electric Power

Shoshone Journal
l. B. Perrine, who has been work
ing up the project of an electrical
power plant for Shoshone was in the
city this morning. That the plant
will be established is now assured.
1t is estimated that the works will
cost $50, 900 which amount has al
ready been subscribed by Boise and
Shoshone parties The plant will be
located at the Blue Lakes, and the
Perrne Falls will be harnessed to
furnish the necessary power for the
generation of the electricity. The
scheme is to furnish electric light
and heat and power for water works
and various industries which will be
established. Utah parties have
agreed to esl ablish beet sugar fac
tory and -four mill on the compile
ton of the works and other indus
tries will undoubtedly follow, as the
power of the plant will be practically
unlimited. Sheep shearing by
machinery, run by electricity, has
been successfully tried in Wyoming
and other states and will be inaugu-
rated here by the company operating
in those states. The benefit which
Shosbone and the adjacent country
will derive from the above can hard
ly be estimated, as its results must
be far-reaching, effecting the farmer,
the merchant and the stockman
alike.
