Growth of North Idaho.

North Idaho is certainly enjoying
great boom ut present. The cities up
there are coming to the front in great
shape, and the country seems TO be de-
yeloping very rapidly New railway
and electric lines are being built, water
systems going in, paving being done
and generally there is an air of pro-
gressiveness everywhere.
Western Idaho too is growing in pop
ulation rapidly. The cities are increas
ing in size at remarkable pace and
splendid new buildings, are being erect
ed everywhere. Boise especially Is com
ing rapidly to be cosmopolitan and
metropolitan city.

NEW DISTRICT.
Proposition for New Pacific District
Carries by a Big Ma
jority.

The election, to determine wheth-
er the new Pacific Irrigation dis.
trict should be organized, was held
few days ago, and the voters de-
cided by big majority to form the
new district.
AS has been stated before, the
district embraces practically all the
lands east of Bear riyer between
Dingle on the south, and George
town on the north, that lie in the
valley. The bulk of the new lands
sought to be reclaimed by proposed
new bitches, are along the foothills
and the big flats near Bennington.
These new bitches will also furnish
more water Tor lands already under
cultivation than can now be had
under present bitches.
The name the new district will be
known by is "Pacific Irrigation
District" Another election will be
held shortly TO vote on the PROPOSE
tion OF issuing bonds for new canals,
reservoirs, etc. Before this is done.
however. the proposed works must
be approved by the state engineer.
The Examiner believes the organ
ization of this new district means
much for the whole county in gen
eral and Montpelier and the east
side in particular. II will almost
double the productlveness of the
lands on the east side of the valley.
and will also probably mean
waterworks system for this city, in
asmuch as there will be plenty of
water for all parties interested IN
both propositions.
Further particulars will be given
as the work progresses

COPPER KING Co.

The stockholders of this company
met on Tuesday evening in annual
session. Steps were taken to pro-
vide means for active development
work. The treasury is in good
shape, while there are many calls
for stock. The board of directors
decided to let contract for the ex-
tension of the DRIFT, in the bottom
of the shaft, and work will begin
before next Monday, IN fact every
thing is arranged for it to start I'M

MINING ACTIVITY.
All the Claims In Copper Belt Being
Developed. The Show
ing Is Good.

All the companies owning claims
IN the Copper belt, are busily en-
gagged IN doing their assessment
work, and in many cases prepara-
tlons have been made to work all
winter. A renewed energy is ap.
parent all along the line for several
miles, and work is going forward
rapidly. The showlngs made thus
Tar are very encouraging, and the
fact that none of the claims in the
belt will be allowed to lapse by
lack of assessment work, shows
that the stockholders in the various
companies still retain the same faith
they have always had in the ulti-
mate favorable outcome of the belt.
The properties being developed and
the work mapped out for each, are
as follows:
MONTPELIER COPPER MINING Co.
This company has recently let a
100 foot tunnel contract on their
Lucky Boy claim, which adjoins
their Duke claim on the north. The
Lucky Boy mas always had most
promising showing on the surface,
and now the directors of the COM
pany propose to develop the lead at
this point and see what it contains.
Lack of hosting plant OH the
Duke prevents work from being
prosecuted on this claim at present,
but as soon as the company can ar
range TO do SO they will install q
plant here and begin pushing the
shaft on down to the 30O-foot level.
At The recent annual meeting the
following board of directors were
elected: Lyman Fargo, Pocatello;
r. r. Cutler, Salt Lake; Il. FL.
Hoff, E. M. Stewart and c. N.
Sweet, Montpelier. The first named
is president, and A. d. Young is
secretary.

NEW ROUND HOUSE.
All the Excavating Finished and
Concrete Sills are being
Put In.

lie ulS IOFce VI men, tnat nave
been working on the excavating for
the new round house, finished their
work Tuesday. Owing TO the non.
arrival of material, Wednesday,
most of the force were laid off for a
couple of days. However, the ma
terlal is coming in rapidly now and
work will be hurried along as fast
as men and money can rush 1t.
Several carloads of sand and brick
were received the first of the week
and more will come along everyday
until it is all here.
The plans contemplate the filing
In of the present site to height
about two feet above the present
level of the old roandhouse. This
will require many loads of gravel
and tons upon tons of concrete.
There will be fifteen stalls in the
new building for engines, and the
machine shops will occupy build
ing just back of the east end of the
roundhouse. One track will be built
through stall Of the house and out
on to the fiat north to the present
" y
The plling for the turntable were
driven this week. Twenty three
large tiinbers were required. On
top and around these will be packed
concrete and on the top Of this will
be placed an immense block of
Dlamondville sandstone. On this
stone will rest the center of the
turntable, which will be the largest
of any on the Short Line.
We understand that upon the
completion of the roundhouse and
machine shops will come the build.
ing of new coal chutes, sandhouse,
pumphouse and other necessary
buildings, the whole to be followed
by the erection of fine new depot.
The roundhouse and other build.
ings, exclusive of the depot, call
for an expenditure of nearly $780,
900, and it will take until spring to
finish the work.
The company has been figuring
with the Montpelier Electric Light
Co., for lighting their new shops,
but If they fail to make a contract
they viii, it is said, install an cleo
trio plant of their own. Many
hundred OF lights will be required
for all the company buildings.
The building of these structures
will put many thousands of dollars
into circulation in this city this
winter, as the company is giving
local men the preference in doing
the work, and they are paying good
wages.
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1903-10-30

Gently purchased the fraction of
Messrs. Jarboe and Fuller, and the
full claim of VIM. Jarboe, both be-
ing extensions and on the same lead
as their Copper King claim. They
now have five and one-half claims
in their group.
INDEPENDENCE COMPANY.
President Whitman has been
pushing work steadily on this COM
pany's property for some time past
and the showing is fine. Arrange
ments are now being made to have
the developing continue all winter.
The treasury is III good shape for
work and the outlook is most favor
able.
The new directors Of this com
pany are: M. F. Whitman, j. L.
Underwood, E. M. Stewart, G. G..
Gray and Robt. Gee.
This company has recently pur-
chased several adjoining claims,
thus giving them splendid large
group in the belt. -
OTHER CLAIMS.
H. s. Wooley and force of men
are at work on the Bacon CLAIMS,
developing them in good shape.
They have laid in big supply of
provisions and material for seasons
work, and they expect to scamp"
there until they have shipping
proposition Part of this group
adjoins the copper belt lead on the
east, and the development of these
claims IS being watched by all IN
terested in the main belt.
The Elk Copper company have
completed their assessment work,
but intend to keep working all win,
ter il present plans go through.
Their claims join those of the Cop.
per King company on the north.
The Claire company are arrang.
ing to put on big force of men
within few days. They have sew
eral important matters under con.
sideratlon, which will be made pub.
lie in few days. The new direct.
ors are: G. G. Gray, Chas. Hoff,
J. A. Rostan, J. G. Crane and A.
D. Young.
As will be seen, there has been a
consolidation of many CLAIMS, es.
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1903-10-30

As will be seen, there has been a
consolidation of many CLAIMS, es-
pecially where single claims were
owned, these being taken in by ad-
joining companies. The belt is
now owned by four or five COM
panies, and instead of the work be-
ing scattered IN many places it will
all be concentrated IN four or five
spots and the leads thus more rapid
ly developed than was possible
under the old way.
The people Of this city are bank
ing great hopes on this belt and are
watching the work eagerly.
