A report from the Spirit and Filth

pushing things aud will be extended
to Spokane.
Ii is said a large surveying gang,
some ten days ago, left Rathdrum
and are surveying the road in both
directions. It Is thought the crew
working west has reached a Joint
about half way to Spokane.
The road will pass through the
north end of Rathdrum and run un-

town. When the crew left Rathdrum
working west It was making Roadway
at the rate of three miles per day.
1t is now distinctly asserted that
from Spirit lake west the road will
be an electric line.
While it was thought at first that
the road was only interested in hand
ling timber and logs, yet as time de
veIops the road is assuming more and
