ests, an undertaking entirely too
heavy for one, will fall very lightly
upon all, leaving those plans, which
each may have for their especial ben
eft, for future development as re-
spectiye resources may make posi-
Bile. Weiser and Council do not get
what they want by the Warren ex
tension Their interest calls for a
direct road from Council through
Long valley to the district, which
connection can be made in 80 miles
of highway, but this is too heavy an
undertaking, as it is all to build. and
will require at least a year to ac-
complisb. Spokane and Sites no
doubt, at heart, would like to have
q road from Dixie in. This is $50,
600 to 500, 600 job and not even
the help of Grangevile could be had
as it would not be interested. This
is also thing very remote of accom-
pllshment even were plan for funds
being considered In fact there is
no other plan that does not mean
long delay in getting wagons into the
country. There is no other plan
that relieves one or two places of the
burden of the entire cost of doubly
expensive road This is the only
plan which means quick entrance to
the gold fields, and which will be
mutually borne by the localities
mentioned as being Of common bene-
fit The only point upon which sue
cessful entry in advance of all
others, is dependant, is whether
or not all will fall INTO line and see
that our united forces are applied at
once. An entrance with vehicles
months in advance of competitive
localities means every thing in future
command of the business of Thunder
Mt and any plan various points may
have for later day will only be con
served by this step of immediate ne
cessity.

CITY BUILDING.

When we speak of city building
we touch upon question and sub
ject around which gathers the ro-
nance of the World, and no pages
OF history are more facinating than
those that lead us back until, lost in
Legendary lore, we locate the present
site of once great metropolis now
in the lonely depths of wilderness
and amid desert sands Imagine
the far off day when lonely wan
derer camped beside the spring, lake
or stream. Others followed in his
track and some remained because the
location seemed pleasing. Then
fields were cultivated and the seeds
of civilization took root. Damascus,
old when Rome was founded, stands
on the borders of the desert, ver-
table paradise, made so by the waters
that flow from the snow covered
mountain through the Arbana and
Parphor rivers, like the Weser and
the Snake. There for untold centur-
les centered the commerce of the
Indies and the caravans that roamed
the sands of Persia. Rome spread
over her seven hills and the early
settlements on the Thames and the
Seine have grown INTO the greatest
cities of the world, and in their
primative days they had to 90
through the same strife and the same
trouble as we are going through to-
day Their histories are our histor-
les and ancient patriotism of their
citizens brought them out as the
patriotism of our citizens will bring
us out. They stand IN their mag
nificence, the awe of man; but there
are other cities yot to build, and we
today, as they were in the past. are
but stepping stones to higher planes.
The star of empire has not ceased to
roll westward and today the hand of
destiny is upon Weiser and we must
make ourselves the agents to carry
that destiny into effect. THE new
city administration will have great
responsibilities placed upon it to
properly conserve the career of
Weiser The citizens have great
responsibilities placed upon them at
critical periods like the present when
the rush of a great gold excitement
in tributary part of the state, opens
one of the ways to advancement:
when the restless movement from the
overcrowded east is going to send
great influx of immigration to the
Snake river valley makes it necessary
to strain every nerve tor the proper
development of the commercial SUI
premacy which nature, IN her geo.
graphical arrangement of this part
of the Earth's surface, designed for
Weiser, both now and in the future.
We must see that proper communi-
cation by wagon road is had with all |

tributary country, we must have a
bridge over the Snake, and, by sup
plying modern municipal improve
ments, make Weiser inviting to CAPT
tai seeking investment. This per-
haps is not the desire of that man
who would keep the town poor to
make himself appear rich in com
parison, but it Is question of com
merclal life greater than ndi-
vidual considerations.

A DEPARTMENT MYSTERY

1t is little wonder there should be
deficiencies In the postal department
If the recent brilliant action is any
criterion of the usual business meth
DDS in that branch of government,
The dispatches announce that H. b.
Eastman has been awarded contract
for carrying the mail from Idaho CITY
to Thunder Mt This is strange bust
ness and is due to regulation bit of
Boise political jugglery. This con
tract is made for compensation
more than four times greater than
would be necessary to secure mail
service for the camp, is given to a
man already rich, and over route
which Mr.. Eastman himself says will
not permit Of trip prior to July lst,
while at the same time there is a
much nearer way over which it can
be carried at this present moment
and has been carried all winter by
private service The department
pays Mr. Eastman $500 year to
take mail over distance of 80 miles
OF new line on route that has not
been travelled since Nov. l, and will
not be until July 1.-THE opposite side
of the picture is that the present
mail route to Warren could be ex-
tended to Thunder Mountain by one
half the distance of new line and at
cost of $500 to 50, 900 per annum.
No Inspector has been sent over the
lines to advise the department as to
best route, and the officials not having
any means of knowing true conditions,
it is plain that too much reliance has
been placed on the representations of
certain INSCRIPTIONS jobbers.
