ideas on the subject Of fusion. There
may be fusion in some of the counties,
but that will probably be the extent of it.
The populist fusion leaders haye gone
into the democratic party and the lead
ers on the other side are pranciug JOY
ously along the very center of the road,
kicking up q cloud of dust totally out of
proportion in size to their numbers, ours
ing fusion and damning trusts, which by
the way is the paramount issue with the

not one word of free silver. 1t was, how
ever, heavily loaded with the trust issue.
Anyway, an old issue, is better than

GOLD HUNTERS ENROUTE

Rush to Thunder Mountain over the North.
ern Trails formins-Msn Gathering At
Sites. Elk City and GranseviIIs.
Sites, Idaho, March 9.-By twos and
threes prospectors are gathering in Sites,
Dixie, Elk City. Grangeville and other
points preparing for the rush into Thun.
der Mountain. A few of the more ven
turesome spirits are all ready on the trails
to the south, determined to get into the
new district ahead of the rush.
But the majority of the men who ex-
pect to make fortunes in the Big Greek
district this summer are assembling along
the route waiting until travel is less
hazardous. The few sturdy ones who are
pushing on from Dixie or Warren can
only take in small amount Of supplies
now. and unless packtrains bring freight
rates down considerably in the summer
it is expected prices will be unreasonably
high and the man who went in too early
will have an unwelcome choice between
paying dearly for food or making trip
out and in again in the middle Of the sea-
son. Inside Of four weeks it is believed
both the Elk City-Dixie route and the
Grangeville-Warren route will be in
shape for packhorses all the way in.
Then the real rush will commence.
The chief topic on every side now is
not the problem Of securing claim or
speculation on the probable value Of
what can be secured, but which is the
best route to reach Big creek. For the
two routes there are plenty Of champions.
The majority of prospect"rs seem in
Sites prefer the Elk City-Dixie route
which is the more direct route, though
some aver that the ''longer road is the
shorter" meaning that the Grangeville-
Warren route allows the transportation
of heavier loads nearer the mountain by
packhorses. In the week just ended men
have come out ovet both routes. All ad-
nit that roads are in frightful condition
and considerable hardship must be en-.
dured on trails from the end of the state
roads at Dixie or Warren in order to get
into the camp at once. But the fact that
the trip can now be made over either
line is good news for towns along the
Clearwater line, which expect to do a
heavy supply trade this summer.
The Grangeville board of trade has
started advertising the Grangeville-War-
rem route by issuing map showing
roads and trails to Thunder Mountain;
also giving distances, fares and stopping
places. This example has stirred up Elk
City, Dixie and Sites merchants and
they intend to issue a map and folder
showing the advantage of the eastern
line. Money has been subscribed and
folders will soon be Used. The newspa.
pers of Grangeyille and Sites are boom
, ing the merits of the rival routes and
printing all available items to show why
a preference should be given their
fayorite route.
Heavy supply stocks have been ordered
by merchants along the routes in antici.
patton of the rush. These stocks are be-
ing brought in by the Clearwater Short
Line, which seems liable to suffer from a
CONGESTION of freight soon. There are NO
switch engines on the line above Lapwai
and the regular train is accordingly de-
'layed at each station while the engine at
tends to necessary switchings.
