PRACTICAL EFFORT IN BEHALF
OF IDAHO

T.. NJ. Newton, Travelling Pas
eenger agent of the o. 5. L. with
headquarters in Ogden, was in
Shoshone the last of the week to
get a line up of The needs of
this portion of Lincoln county. Mr..
Newton will pass over the main
line from Huntington to Granger
and out on the branch lines every
month, making stops at the diff
ferent towns, investigating cOndi-
tiOnS and the needs of each local
ity, he will report to headquar-
ters.
of course every locality will
want new settlers and one town
will want a creamery, another an
alfalfa meal mill, still another a
FIGURING mill or grain elevator. All
of these wants will be recorded
at the head office and each one
will be advertised and pushed till
the want is supplied or something
better is secured.
By such means the Short Line
is getting in touch with the needs
Of the people who reside within
its territory, with a view Of CO.
operating with them and aiding
them to secure the settlers and
tie capital to further develop the
resources that now lie dormant.
1t will be we'll for our people to
get in touch with Mr. Newton and
agree on just what industry will
most benefit the town and the
country. The eyes of the world
will soon be turned on the Pac-
Llc coast country and these inter
mountain states. Immigrants
money will come pouring in to
take advantage of the boom the
near completion of the Panama
canal is bound to inaugurate. This
locality has plenty of openings for
profitable investment and deslr-
able settlement; but some effort
must be made to let our advan-
tages be known to those who con-
template a move in this direction
The presidential year is nearly
half over and a general revival of
business Is bound to follow. Well
organized efforts now will result
in advertising our matchless re-
sources to the people who are
thinking of taking advantage Of
the conditions we have to offer
them. A stream of new settlers
and capital pouring into this coun-
try would make it the garden Of
the world.
