IDAHO EXTENSIONS OF N. p.
Lewiston GrangeviIIe Line Presents

Tacoma, Wash, July 23.-Concerning
Northern Pacific extensions in Idaho
Chief Engineer Pearson. of the North
ern Pacific tonight stated that three
and are going ahead with preliminary
surveys as rapidly as possible. Work
has a capacity of 10 tons per day. and
is not apt to be delayed until finished.
The grade from Lewiston to Grange
Vile. along the route of the proposed
extension. presents some hard engi-
neering problems. fully as difficult as
those involved in construction work
over the Cascades.
Mr.. Pearson was unable to state
when actual breaking of ground would
commence. He believes the company
has no other construction work in con-
temptation for this summer and that
work now under way will be pushed to
as speedy a conclusion as possible
whether or not an electric system
will be installed in Washington by the
Northern Pacific company to gradually
branch lines is matter for time to
decide. When conditions are ripe for
such a change network of electric
lines will probably be built in the west

more displays, Mrs. Vessels came in

There is considerable talk" said
Mrs. Vessels, "of putting up per-

at Boise, to keep our display after the
fair is over 1t seems a shame to put
so much good work in getting good
exhibit and then to have it destroyed.
hope this plan is carried out. we
should always have an exhibit ready
on short notice.
1.-THE fair is a big success When
I left Portland we had over 1000 Idaho
people registered at the Idaho build
ing We are giving out large amount
of literature and eastern people seem
to be much interested in the state.
THE fair was badly hurt at the be-
ginning by the lodging houses raising
the room rates to exorbitant prices.
They have since then reduced the rest
to normal prices and visitor can get
good accommodations very reasona-
BILE"
Visitors who have returned from the
fair speak highly of the arrangement
and the decorative work in the Idaho
building. This work was done under
the direction of Mr.. and Mrs. Vessels.
The agricultural exhibit in the Idaho
building has been almost universally
pronounced the finest on the grounds.
The arrangement Of the exhibit is en-
trelv different from anything else on
the grounds and is carried out in the
state colors.
