RAPID PROGRESS
ON SNAKE RIVER
Huntington Road Employing
Over 5000 Men, All
Rushing Work

"The railroad that is being built by
the oregon Short Line from Hunting
ton along the Snake river to Lewis
ton will reach Homestead, Ore, with
in 30 days. and will be operating that
far north by Sept. l..
"This road will open to transpor-
tation ores that rank with the rich
est in the world" said William Tre-
vor, vice president of the National
Copper Mines company, which is min
ing at Cuprum, seven miles from the
Snake river, says the Portland Jour-
nal.
1.-THE railroad company has be-
tween 5000 and 5000 men at work on
construction between Huntington and
Billiards. Landing. 1t has been ap-
parent for some time that Hartman
is determined to possess the Snake
river water grade and that he win
succeed in push ng the Snake river
road through to Lewiston before an
other year passes. The Union Pacific
will thereby gain a route of low grade
from Portland through to American
Falls, in southeastern Idaho, where
their eastbound trains make their
last crossing of Snake river.
Main LIMO for Tonnage.
'Fo heavy freight tonnage the
Snake river route, via Lewiston, will
become the favorite route, as against
the shorter road through the Blue
mountains. The Snake river road
from Huntington is beng built main
ly because the Hill company secured
the water grade from Spokane tt
Portland and furthermore because
Hartman knows that Hill is now benz
on cutting several hundred miles of
| the Northern Pacific's time card bs
pushing through Lolo pass to Nilsson.

"To maintain an equal footing will

Pacific system to seize the easy grades
within its reach. Another reason TO
the construction of the Snake rive
line il the immense ore tonnag
awaiting the road in the Seven Dew
lis and the Powder mountain section
This whole country is heavily min
eralized, and some amazing values ar
being found in the rock that i
brought in by prospectors. Portlan
assayers have reported on copper ore
that carry gold and silver of hither

and tore away part Of the palm and
all fingers except the little finger and
the thumb. The companion ran to

Deputies Are Being Sworn In
To Serve Blanket
injunction.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 2S.-
The State and railroads are resting
on their arms today, the only thing
doing in the litigation being the swear
ing in of dozen deputies to serve the
papers enjoining State officers from
enforcing the acts of the recent SEES
sion of Legislature. Gov. Conner is
yet out of reach and the officers OF
the Louisville & Nashville left for
home to return for the hearing on
Monday next. Several conferences
were held between the attorneys OF
the railroads and the State and the
Judge of the court, but nothing was
made public. Attorney General Gar
Der said that he had not had time to
60 over the papers and could not yet
say what he would do.
Il Is we'll known that the additional
deputies are sworn In as well to be
ready for any violation Of the orders
of the court as to serve the papers.
Some of the most fearless men who
have been in the service in the past
have been secured and 1t Is given out
that the court Is determined that there
shall be the most absolute observance
of its orders. 1t Is anticipated here
that the order will be disobeyed, the
feeling being that everybody would
like to get a test case.

LIQUOR CASES
ARE ON TRIAL
JOHN DOYLE is ARRAIGNED FOR
ALLEGED ILLEGAL SALE
OF WHISKEY.

The two cases of the State VS.. John
Doyle, charged with the illegal sale
OF liquor, were taken up Monday
in Circuit Court. These are the rather
celebrated cases from the Rally Hill
neighborhood, which have been In
court for year or more and have at
tracted SO much attention. Doyle was
originally indicted under six or seven
counts. The cases were dismissed In
the County Criminal Court on the
grounds of no prosecution. The law
had Just been passed transferring all
cases for the illegal sale of liquor
from the County Criminal to the Cir
cult Court.
County Attorney Whitthorne, bas-
ing his opinion on this new law, held
that the cases could not be tried in
the County Criminal Court and refused
to conduct the prosecution in that
court. Judge Gordon, not having been
officially notified of the passage of the
new law, held that he still had juris-
diction over the cases, and the County
Attorney, refusing to prosecute, he
dismissed the cases. Mr.. Whitthorne
in conjunction with Attorney General
Garner later secured two new indict-
ments against Doyle and the trial is
being conducted under these new In
dictments.
