ELECTRIC LINE
FILES SURVEY
Selects Definite Location From
Here to Wallace

The Spokane, Wallace & Interstate
Electric railway fled their prelimin-
airy plat of definite location of its
right of way this morning at the U.
s. Land Office. This lie the culmlna-
ton of the surveying that has been
done by this company for the past six
months. This spring all the survey
ing was checked and a definite right
of way decided on and filed. The
survey leaves Occur d'Alene and fol
lows east long the shore Of the lake
to Wolf Lodge bay. From the end Of
the bay it follows the creek in an east :.
erlydirection until it strikes the Occur
d'Alene river about three miles west
of Rose lake. 1t follows the river
then until it reaches Wallace. At
the divide there will be a 4, 900 foot
tunuel. The heaviest grade on the
whole line is not over two per cent
and this is only for two miles ON each
side of the divide. The balance of
the grade is one per cent or less.
The work on the grading will begin
about the first of August. Grades
will be started from Occur d'Alene
and from about the center OF the sur
vey working east. Occur d'Alene
will be the supply point for all tools,
machinery and foodstuffs in the con
work during the building
of the road. After the work has
once started it will not take a great
while to finish the laying of the
rails. Large gangs of men will be
put on and all thst is possible will
be done before freezing weather.
There will be fifty one miles Of rails
to lay between here and Wallace and
when the road is completed and the
rolling stock installed 1t is expected
that the schedule will allow only an
hour and three quarters for the time
between the two points.
The line runs through the richest
mining country In the state and the
men at the head of the enterprise
feel conHndent that the road will be
a paying proposition from the day
it is opened.

own observation Is true as far as an
honest, educated man can see and
understand the truth.
"In your recent attack this il what
you chiefly deny. have spoken
the truth, and you accuse me of de.
hoerate falsehood and misrepresenta-
tion. As president Of the United
States you have gone out of your way
publicly to iDjure the private citizen
who was attending strictly to his own
business; as a man you have accused
OF talsehood another man whose ideals
OF truth and honor are quite as high
as your own.
This is the whole issue between
us. | meet it squarely, and so must
you. II you have spoken falsely, if
IN my book or words OF mine | have
Intentionally deceived any child or
man regarding animal life prom Use
publicly to retrant every such word
and never write another animal book.
On the other hand if 1 show to any
disinterested person that yon have ac-
cused me falsely, you must publicly
withdraw your accusation and apol-
ogize. AS man and as president no
other honorable course is open to yon.
You base your recent charges chiefly
on the matter of big white wolf Kill
ling young caribou by bite in the
chest, described by me in Northern
Trails"
"You declare the thing to be a
mathematical impossibility, and de-
Glare by mo possibility could a wolf
preform the feat.
Continuing, DR.. Long says:
These are facts underlying the in
cident which you declare to be i'm
possible and false. II this testimony
Is not enough l will fill it up to full
scripture measure.
"You cannot at this stage, Mr..
Roosevelt, take refuge behind the
presidential Office aud maintain ST.
lence. You have forfeited your right
to that silence by breaking it by COM
ing out IN publication to attack a
private citizen. If your talk of a
square deal is not all sham, if your
frequent moral preaching is not hyp
ocrisy, l call upon you, as president,
as a man, to come out and admit the
error and injustice of your charge in
the same open aud public way in
which you made it"
