Teams were over the road that

but little snow to 60 through in the

problem: ''If it takes four days to
break five miles of the trail, how high
will the grass be on the high divides
when they get out Of sight of Idaho
City?" They are doing their best
and if they had been paid or offered
reasonable sum 10 do the work,

got ten miles beyond the broken road
on Payette river. Tie road was
broken by teams taking supplies to
Miller Mountain mines.
You can publish and advertise the
fact all you please that there will be
no travel on this road until snow is
gone. l write you this because |
don't want to see prospectors de-
ceived. 1t won't benefit this town
any to circulate the report that the
road is opened. If Boise people
we're sincere they would have put up
more money and got good outfit
and gone to work in earnest We
must give the Boise papers credit for
the work they have done IN trying to
get the road opened. Boise's scheme
is undoubtedly to advertise that this
route is beng opened, and by this
means hold people in Boise, contem-
plating a trip into Thunder Mountain,
and hold them just as long as they
can-until the fraud of their little
scheme is exposed, which will not be
until this outfit returns. 1t may bt
that they have been paid to strike
camp somewhere in the hills ant
remain there, while Boise energet

1t is nice scheme for Boise but viii

deceived. For the benefit that Bois
would reap by having the road AM
trail broken to Thunder Mt, by wa
of Bear valley, one business ma
alone could well afford to have pu
up $500. That was a very sma

TALKING OF AN

Manager Harvey and Frank NJ.

have been consulting in regard to an
opera house that would meet the
needs of Weiser for some years To-
come Crowded the Northern Pacific
doesn't build into town right awxy.)
Mr.. Northrup suggests that
bonus of 81, 900 be given to the local
citizens who will furnish "a, 900 more
for the purpose of building an opera
house. He thinks the proper thing
for town like Weiser is to build q
large wooden building away from the
business portion. By this means the
same stage room, seating capacity etc.
can be secured cheaply, In fact the
same Accommodations obtained as by an
expensive brick building.
In his home town of Wayne, Neb., :,
with a population of %, 900 bonus
of 81, 900 was raised, ten citizens put
in $500 each and with the Sc, 600 they
built an opera house 48 by SO that
would seat 1000 people, with modern
stage Accommodations and heated by a
furnace There was gallery around
three sides and the floor was seated
with movable seats 90 that it could
be turned into great dancing hall
The building has always paid fall

that one Of the citizens has bough
