WHICH ROUTE is BEST?

Concerning the proposed route
of the Lardo and Big Greek rail,
road, articles of incorporation OF
which were recently filed with the
secretary of state, Mr.. E. d. York
of this place calls our attention to
the fact that the route chosen from
Lardo to Secesh creek is consider
ably longer than it need be.
Mr.. York, who, by the wav. is
we'll acquainted with these noun
tain passes, believes that the better
and shorter route is from Lardo to
the head of Little Payette lake.
then up Lake creek to the summit
between that creek and Lick creek
then down Lick creek to it's Juno
ton with Secesh creek-at about
the same place where the proposed
line would come ina distance by
this route of about 35 miles from
Lardo, as against about 60 miles
by the route selected to reach the
same point.
This route, says Mr.. York, would
save between Is and 80 miles of
hard road building. The grade
is fully as easy to the summit as
on the longer route, while the
snowfall is less.
Long Valley advocate. (Lardo, Idaho) 1904-1907, 1904-12-22

will be extended In a very short
time to the Thunder Mountain
country, and your people and the
farmers in this valley will have a
fine market for their produce. 1t
will be a fine thing for this section y
The Index says further that it
has information that the Idaho
Northern will be extended to
Horseshoe Bend early In the spring,
and that is is possible that the
road will go as far as Payette
Lakes and perhaps to Roosevelt.
And further the same paper states:
ut is said President Lovejoy of
the Belle of Thunder Mountain
mining property will assist in
financing the project, as he is very
anxious to secure an outlet for his
output and cheaper and quicker
transportation for his supplies.
The proposed extension of the aPinn
road is also hurrying matters, and
it is not at all unlikely that the
work of constructing the Dewey
road will begin early in the spring."
Where there is so much smoke
there is surely some fire. A rail
road, perhaps two of them, will
tap this fertile valley before very
long, and quite likely next year.
The advent of a railway will have
the effect of doubling land values
and complete the settlement of our
lovely wales very rapidly. The
prospects for the future are very
encouraging.
