BUSY IN THE INLAND EMPIRE
1910 Will See More Railroad
Construction.
Milwaukee Invading This Section

That the coming year will be one OF
great activity in railroad building in
this part of the Inland Empire is evil
denced by the many reports of activity
that are appearing in the daily papers.
The railroad extension that most par
ticularly interests the people of this sec
tion is the building OF the Idaho 4
Washington Northern from lone to
Metaline, distance of ten miles. The
contract for the building of the grade
has been let to Grant Smith Il Co., and
a crew of men is already at work clear
ing right-of-way. This ten miles OF road
will be expensive construction, and will
cost over $5O. 900 per mile in addition to
the cost of bridging the river at Box
Canyon
From Priest River come continued
reports OF the activity of Great Northern
surveyors seeking a route from the main
line of the railroad to Priest Lake. The
latest reports are that the surveyors are
running line from point about mile
east of the present town of Priest River.
That the road will be built by the Great
Northern and within the next year,
seems to be certainty, Forty engineers
are on the job, and it is said they are
now on permanent location work.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget
Sound, the latest transcontnental road
to reach the northwest, Is also getting
busy with extensions and branches, as
indicated by the following dispatch from
Occur d'Alene;
The Idaho & Western Railroad Co.
has filed articles of incorporation at
Occur d'Alene and at Boise. The in
corporators are: J. l.. McClear, of
Occur d'Alene; f. d. Sewell, H. H.
Field, f. E. Cook and Fl. r. Williams,
of Seattle, each of whom holds one share
of the 10000 shares of stock. The re-
mainder is held by the Chicago, Milwau-
kee 4 Puget Sound Railroad. The line
is to be IS miles long and the general
offices are fixed at Occur d Alene

1910 WILL SEE PROGRESS
Predicted that Development Will
Exceed Past Records.
Section of Diversified Resources.

With the arrival of 1910 comes the
opening OF new era of prosperity tor
the Pend Oreille valley, prosperity in
which Newport, by reason of its location
and superior transportation facilities. is
bound to share.
Men who are we'll posted on the re-
sources of this country, and in touch
with the march of progress, say that the
next two years will see a much more
rapid development of this section than
has been experienced in the last two
years. The various industries now in
process of development will soon reach a
productive stage, more industries Will be
started, and many more people will in
the next two years come to make the
valley their homes and bring with them
new capital and energy to carry on the
work
No section of the country in the north
west contains more varied resources and
opportunity for the upbuilding of profit
able business. This section has been
given great impetus by the building of
the new railroad. which will provide a
market for its produce. and it is now an
attractive field for investment.
All of the larger sawmill companies
are planning an increase of their busi-
ness. The Fidelity Lumber Co. and
Jurgens Bros, of Newport, the Dalkena
Lumber Co.. of Dalkena, and the Pan
handle, with its mills at Spirit Lake and
lone, are all conducting logging opera
tions on larger scale than heretofore,
and will increase their cut next year.
The extension of the l. & w. NJ, the
building of the cement plant at Sullivan
Lake, the sawmil at lone and the pro-
posed cement plant at Cement will all do
their share toward letting loose capital
throughout the valley and contribute
toward its upbuilding.
The diking of the Calispel valley will
reclaim thousands of acres of valuable
agricultural lands The clearing of logged
oyer lands and their transformation into
orchard and agricultural lands will take
some time, but in the end it will be ac-

complished and the Pend Oreille valley
come into its own.
The cedar pole industry. which has
been stagnant for the past two years,
must soon awaken. This valley is one
OF the greatest cedar pole producing
sections in the country, and the time
most come VII en- the old days of profit
able operation in poles will return, and
the settlers can turn their holdings into
money.
This section is favored spot on the
map of the northwest, and the many
who are showing their faith in the future
prosperity of its timber. mining, fruit
and agricultural resources will be we'll
rewarded.

Town Clerk Edward Brittcn has pre-
pared for submission to the town coun-

expenditures of the town from Feb. IL,

The announcement is made by the
lone Record that another cement plant
will be established mile from that
town as result of the extending of the
I. & w. N. to Metaline. F. r. Clark,
who represents Spokane and eastern
capitalists, has purchased the holdings
of the old Pacific Cement Co. at Cement.
Mr.. Clark said the construction of the
plant would be started at once. The
company will employ 300 men and the
mill will have a capacity of 1000 barrels
daily. Eight kilns. each 8xl25 feet, will
be constructed
There is practically inexhaustible
deposit of cement rock on the 1872 acres
purchased by the new company. The
rock carries 80 per cent lime.
The egrodud was located on about 8'years
ago bv Frederick G. Jordan. He estab-
lished the town of Cement and con-
structed plant for the manufacture OF
hydraulic cement at the site. After ex-
pending about $1,000 in exploiting the
concern, the property has been in litiga-
ton during the last five years.
The company is not connected with
the Inland Portland Cement Co., which
will erect plant on the same railroad
near the new townsite of Metaline. The
Inland company is headed by F. A.
Blackwell, president of the I. & w. N,
and will have plant in operation within
the next year.

possible that even among the late

competent to teach this overflow of

have been more than pleased to have
been selected for this position.
Furthermore, one of the applicants
for this place was former teacher IN

resigned to leave Kentucky, but being
