RAILROAD SURVEYORS
Out For "Pin". Equipped for Long
Stay-..RetiCenCe Shown.

A survey corps of ten men in
charge of Engineer t. A. Clark left
Weiser this morning over the
Pacific & Idaho Northern railroad
to Council, at which point their
supplies and bedding will be load
ed on pack animals and they will
proceed to Stevens, the terminus of
the P. & 1. N. grade. The survey
ing corps is sent out by the Pacific
& Idaho Northern railway, it is
stated, for the purpose of securing
better route around Mud creek to
the Little Salmon river, than the
one located four or five years ago
by the company's surveyors. The
surveyors are reticent about their
movements, and whether they will
go beyond or follow down the Little
Salmon to it's confluence with the
Salmon is matter of conjecture.
However, the members of the corps
are equipped for long period, and
there may be more in the move
ment than appears on the surface

Free Sheep Pasture Withdrawn.

E. M. Hoover, manager OF the
Payette Lumber company, which
owns thousands of acres of timber
land along the Payette and in the
Boise Basin, stated this morning
that his company would not allow
free range hereafter to all corners

lease to sheep men for one year,
and those who had no contracts
would not be allowed to trespass.
In this way they expect to elimin-
ate large part of the danger from
forest fires.-Capital News.
