and after the addresses were made
many people in the audience. among
them republicans. came to the rostrum
to congratulate us and assured us OF
their support for Mr.. Heitfeld. There
are many of the opposition who are

sue but it is well known fact that in
many instances the question has been

Defeated Lewiston Cutoff

That compact defeated the proposed
extension from Riparia, Wash. to Lew
iston, Idaho. because the Hartman in
terests and those presiding over the
destinies of the Northern Pacific could
not agree as to division of the stocks
of the new company which was neces-
sary to operat te the proposed road. That
the line would have proved great
saving to both companies can not be
doubted. for under present condit/ls
the Northern Pacific must haul to the
coast by way of Spokane, while the O.
r. & N. must load on boats at Lewis
ton and transfer to cars at Riparia.
Other proposed development in the
northwest has shared the fate of the
Lewiston cutoff.
Recent changes in the railroad sit
uation seem to indicate, so say those
who are closest in touch with the sit
uation, that the Northern Pacific will
no longer be controlled by j. ]. Hill
and Mr.. Morgan, but that it will pass,
or has already passed, to Hartman, or
interests friendly to the Hartman pol
icy. This would not only remove the
! objection to constructing the Lewiston
| cutoff but would render such step eX-
| the cost of haul and better enable both
! the Northern Pacific and o. r. & n
to oppose the Great Northern, which

through the Bitter Roots the Earliest
Possibilities in Construction work

The article published in The Teller
= ,ast night with referenceto the rail-
road situation directly bearing on The
lewiston country is the subject of
much comment among the business in
terests of this city. A general feeling
~ confidence is asserting itself and
the time is now believed to be ripe for

can not be said that this feeling Of con-
Adence is not without just grounds. 1t
was learned today from an authorita-
five source that in the past week there
has been general signs of activity in
the chief engineers Office Of the o. r.
q N, at Portland which would indicate
that the o. r. & N. people are alive to
the situation and are prepared to carry
ont the plans that have been lying
dormant for so many years. 1t is now
believed that the Hartman interests
control both the Northern Pacific and
o. r. 4 N. lines and even though the

work under the same conditions as
formerly only that their positions will
be strengthened at every point in Or
der to discourage any war that might
be waged against them by the Hill in
terests. This would necessitate the
building OF the Lewiston Riparia
branch the Lo Lo cut-off from Mis-
soula. Mont, and a feeder into the
Camas Prairie section and feeder into
the upper Snake river region. One
possible solution OF the latter project
would be the construction of the line
down the Grande Ronde river from Ell
gin, Ore, connection at this point. De-
velopments may be looked for soon and
the public will be on the que vive.
