this section are in high splits over the
copious rainfall of the past week as

and before leaving l was assured that
every effort would be made to lend
moral and financial support. 1 have
letter from the president Of the Port
land chamber OF commerce which Is
addressed to the trustees Of our pro-
ject which / shall turn over tomorrow.
This letter fully outlines the interest
Portland has in the matter and in toto
practically extends the assistance that
we desire.
1T is very probable that the cham-
ber of commerce will appoint commit
tees next week to visit the business
interests of Portland and it is not i'm
possible that from $4,000 to 500, 900
may be raised there. While in Port
land was approached by several cap
italists who suggested the informa ton
that they would like to figure on taxi
ing up the bond issue, so l have no
fear that we will not be able to finance
the road at the proper time
In the meantime the work in this
section of the country has by no means
Jagged. The soliciting committee have
been at work daily and the success in
raising stock subscriptions Is phenom-
enal. which shows that every person
In every walk of life is anxious to fur
the project with a hope of it's ulti-
mate success.
Today and tonight Denver, in Ida
no county, will hold a monster mass
meeting for the purpose of furthering
the project along and 1t is estimated
that between $4,000 and $4,000 will
be raised from that town and immedi-
ate vicinity. Cottonwood will hold a
meeting tomorrow and from informa-
ton received it is expected that that
city will do equally as we'll as Den
yer. Grangeville is rapidly forging
ahead with subscriptions and report
$4,000 raised there yesterday.
Next week a committee will leave
here for the Tammany and Waha
country with the purpose of visiting
every farmer and of securing more
subscriptions and there is every rea-
sonable belief that the committee will
be successful.
