plans the directors OF the company
will embrace a number OF well known
river and business men along the
several rivers which are to be the
scene of operations.

extended mention of the matter says.
"the object is not only to revive
traffic on the large inland rivers. but
to demonstrate that river transporta-

vital reality with vast prospects. ."
Some of the business organizations
OF st. Louis look upon the project
with favor and have faith in its sue

The withdrawal of the land
across Salmon river from entry
will retard the development of
that country greatly. While
there is no doubt but that a great
deal of the land can later be filed
on by homesteaders their applica-
tons will have to be acted on
first by the forestry department
and a great deal of red tape be
gone through before the land
can be released again for entry.
This will take time and patience
and many who figured on taking
up land there this spring will not
put up with the delay but will
seek locations elsewhere.

A couple of Spokane parties
have been in this city lately try
ing to work up a proposition a.
mong the farmers for the pur-
chase of all kinds of merchandise
by them at cost. The scheme is
to secure 600 farmers from each
county until a million stockhold-
ers are secured, each farmer to
subscribe for not more than 500
worth of stock and all stockhold-
ers to secure goods at cost. The
scheme is presented in very
plausible shape but we predict
that before it is in operation
some folks will be left holding
the sack. Even should the prop
osition be all that is claimed for
it people should hesitate about
going into it for the simple rea-
son that the operation of these
schemes means the building up
of huge concerns in few of the
big cities and the eventual death
of the smaller towns. If the
farmers go into these projects
the local dealers might as well
close their doors and let the big
cities supply everything used
here.
