IDAHO NORTHERN FILES
new SURVEY.
Asks for Right-of-way From
Emmett to Smiths
Ferry.

The Idaho Northern railroad
this week filed an application fol
a revised right-of-way in the Boise
land office and the REIMBURSEMENT
of former right-of way along
practically the same route. The
new survey follows along the
south side of the river from the
present terminus of the road at EN-
NETT to Horseshoe Bend. where the
river is crossed, Thence up the
North Fork to Smiths Ferry,
where the Pavette Lumber COM
pany's log pond is located.
At the headquarters of the
Dewey road, any intention to ex-
tend the road in the near future is
denied. However, the recent
heavy purchases of standing tim
Der by the Weyerhauser company
and the interest mnifested by
officers of the company in the sur
vey made last summer would indl-
cate that dirt will be flying early
next year.
In this connection there are very
persistent rumors that the Dewey
line is about to pass into the hands
of the Short Line and that this
company will lose no time in
building on the survey just filed.
1t is known that Mr.. Dewey |
has spent a good deal of time at
Salt Lake during the last two
months and that he has been in
close consultation with Short Line
officials, and change of owner
ship in the road is expected in the
near future.

THERE is COAL FAMINE
Emmett's Coal Supply Short
and Few Shipments.

Emmett is suffering from a coal
famine, with no immediate pros.
pect of relief. Wood also is very
scarce and the supply of old rub
bers, shoes and cast off clothing
is nearly exhausted.
Two carloads were received this
week, which were doled out in
small quantities to those who
chad their pames on the list. .
People who had the foresight
last summer to lay in their win
ter's supply are sharing with their
neighbors, i'll many cases. Several
teams have gone to Horseshoe
Bend for supply but The roads
are so bad and the distance so
great that only small quantities
can be hauled. For the first time
probably in the history of John
McNish's saw mill, the scrap pile
has been cleaned up.
But the people are making the
oest of the situation. and have
