The Passing of the Stage Coach.

The rapid growth and development of Idaho is
noted in so many ways that it is almost appalling
There remain today but six county seats in the state
that are not connected up by railroads. But few
years ago, within the memory of thousands of old
timers in the state the county seat that had rail
road the exception rather than the rule
Grangevllle, the seat of government of Idaho
county, the largest in in Idaho, is soon to
be the recipient of railroad communications The
remaining seats of county government distant from
railroad connections, are: Albion in Cassia county;
Paris, in Bear Lake county; Challs, in Custer
county; Samonin Lemh county and Silver City,
in Owyhee county.
Grangevile, for example, has waited long and
patiently for railroad transportation facilities Mean
while, great stocks of merchandise, splendid bust
ness blocks, comfortable homes and modern equip
ment of all sorts will be observed in Grangeve by
those who initialy entered that city by rail. All
of these commodities of life and comfort and lux

present the nearest railroad center from which the
supplies frieghted but for many years, and until
five years ago. Lewiston was the nearest point of
supply to this great inland country.
To those who have lived in this country for
time and made these stage trips to the various county
seats and other remote places of the interior of

through snow and dust and mud and rain; daytime
and night time; over these old familiar stage and
freight roads, wondrous transformation is near at

travel and again attention is called to the fact
that with modern inventions and the appliances being

than it to the early pioneer of these mountain
regions.
But there is another side to this picture, and a
shade of gloom at the thought of laying aside the
old friendly stage coach with all its interesting con-
tributions to the story of life. Thousands upon
thousands of men, women and children of all shades

ancient convenences of travel. The business man,
