NORTHWEST INLAND NOTES.

NORTHWEST EFT SHS
Pullman.-Assurances have been
given Pullman that the long-talked-
of cutoff from this place to Pene-
wawai, on the Snake river, will be
built by the Northern Pacific soon
after the opening of the road from
Riparia to Lewiston. which will be
used by both the Northern Pacific
and the O. R. & N. companies.
Northern Pacific officials say that
freight from as far north as Oaks
dale, south as far as Howell, and
from all points on the Genesee
branch will be sent over this cutoff,
which gives a water grade and a
much shorter distance than either
by way Of Lewiston or Marshall
Junction.
