The dedication of the new steel
bridge at Weiser, puts out of use one
of the most conspicuous of pioneer
Snake river ferries, says the Baker
City Herald.
For over 40 years the Weiser ferry
across the Snake has been one of the
chief gateways to Oregon, and many
historical characters have crossed into
the state at this point, to become
citizens and help make the state what
it is.
1t was on the main highway from
Umatilla Landing to the Idaho mines
as we'll as on the old emigrant road
leading from Green River across the
bridge at Blackfoot to Grande Ronde
valley and Walla Walla.
One of the best "reminiscences told
of the old ferry is concerning Jack
Vincent, the veteran stage driver,
we'll known in Pendelton, Wal]a Wallf
and other points in the Inland EN-
pire. Vincent was gruff adventurous
character, and was often busted" in
/ pioneer days owing to the rapid pace
! he led when he did have money.
1t is told of Vincent that he haC
crossed the Weiser ferry about II
times one summer, in travelling bacl
and forth to the Boise basin mines
4 and as he had been busted each time
his ferry bill had climbed up t.
something like s25. Finally th
ferryman told him emphatically tina
he must have money to square up hi
old bill and pay in advance before h
could cross again.
In October of 1871, Jack starte
down from the mines with two pac

the results of the first mill run when

he said that they were eminently sat

Mr.. Abbott will leave ON his return

which time he expects the mill to be
running again. Another experienced
tramway man will be secured, as a
complete re-adjustment will have to
be made in order to use the new grips.

y WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-When
the Smoot Investigation opened today
Judge W. M. McCsrty of the supreme
court of Utah, who was on the stand
yesterday, was recalled by Chairman
Burrows and examined concerning
the division of offices between Nor
mons and Gentiles.
He said that there was an agree
ment, but that it is understood that
the candidates on the tickets shall be
about evenly divided He repeated
the statement made yesterday that
there is an understanding that one
United States senator shall be Gen
tile and the other Mormon.
Richard W. Young of Salt Lake, a
graduate of West Point and also of
the law department of Columbia Uni
versity, was sworn.
While serving in the Philippines
he was president of the criminal
branch of the Supreme court of the
islands. He returned to Salt Lake
City in 1901 and is now president of
one of the four Mormon stakes of Salt
| Lake City.
| On Gross examination Mr.. Young
said he believed that the manifesto
was inspired and that while there are
people in the church who have not
accepted the doctrines of revelations,
the overwhelming majority believed
that the revelation in relation tt
celestial marriage was inspired.
"In view of the persistent rumor
that an apostle of the church ha
taken two plural wives since the man
ifesto, do you not think that author
tiles of the church should procure tn
attendance Of that man as a witnes

and foot note to the schedule So stat.
ed, that the company had participated

these syndicate transactions was the
