Transportation for That Coun-
try and Rich Mineral District
TRANS CONTINENTAL LINE


There is every indication that the
Salmon river country will have q
railroad within the next two or
three years aud the great mineral
belt Of Central Idaho will be tap.
ped by trans-continental line.
During the past year there has
been rumor 10 the effect that
either the Milwaukee or North.
western was seeking a short route
to the Pacific coast and were max.
ing surveys through Central Idaho.
1t seems to be the intention OF
the promoters to build a line from
Armstrong, Montana, to Salmon
City, Idaho, and during the past
two months terminal grounds have
been purchased in Salmon City
and the right of way is being &C.
quired as rapidly and quietly as
possible.
Several weeks ago a party OF
civil engineers left Salmon City
and started down the Salmon river
In tow boats with the idea OF look.
ing up . feasable water-grade
route. Last week they stopped tc
at Gof over night and here IL Wa
learned the party will come up the
Salmon to it's confluence with the
Snake and then onto Lewiston.
1t is save conclusion that q
railroad will tap the rich mining
district of this county very shortly
and it's pretty certain capitalists
have inside information to that
effect and are making an effort tc
secure some Of the best holdings.
1t looks very much like a Mil.
waukee project vet the Northwest.
ern is pushing its line through
Wyoming and has already secured
entry into Seattle and it might bt
that road. There is no getting
around the fact that It will moi
stop at Salmol City but is the con.
Meeting link for some trsns-oon
tinential line.
The people of the Salmon rivel
country can rest assured that tht
coming of q railroad is not far off
The opening of that country ant
the rich mining districts of thii
country will mean the greatest O.
prosperity.
