WILL WORK FOR

Commissioners Of Several Counties and
Representatives Of Commercial
Bodies to Discuss Plans
WILL ADVERTISE ADVANTAGES
Induce Promoters Of Ocean to Ocean
Auto Road to Take Northern Route

The board of county commits
sioners of Lincoln and Flathead
counties, Montana, this week sent
invitations TO the commissioners of
Bonner county, Idaho, and Spo-
kane county, Washington, and to
the commercial clubs and booster or
CARNATIONS of Kalispell, Jennings,
Troy, Leonia, Boomers Ferry,
Newport and Standpoint, to send
representatives to meeting to be
held in Libby on June % and to join
in the movement to secure the
route of the proposed national
ocean to ocean automobile road
through the Kootenai and Pend
d'Oreille valleys. Representatives
of the Great Northern railway
have also been asked to attend the
meeting as it is believed that this
railway company is vitality con-
cerned in the project owing to the
fact that there is now in the
process of completion the plans
for a coast to coast road which is to
cut off the northern tier of states.
In this part of Idaho and Montana
there seems to be choice of two
routes for the proposed automobile
road, one following the line of the
Northern Pacific railway through
the Clarksfork valley and one fol-
lowing the line of the Great Nor
thern railway through the Pend
d'Oreille and Kootenai valleys.
The Kootenai Valley Boosters are
taking a lively interest in the
effort to secure for this valley the
route of the proposed auto road
and it is expected that a large del
egation from this city will attend
the Libby meeting.
1t is argued that the northern
route along the Kootenai and Pend
d'Oreille rivers through Montana
and Idaho and running into Spo-
kane, Washington, offers induce
ments over the proposed southern
route along the Northern Pacific
railway line which will not be over
looked by the promoters of the
project if brought to their atten-
ton. There is no other section
where the possibilities are so great
for the obtaining of that which is
the objective of the ideal automo
bile road the constant and ever
changing panorama of forest and
stream and lake and unsurpassed
mountain scenery. Another adj
vantage is the fact that considerable
construction work has already been
done along the proposed northern
route and the expenditure would
not be nearly so heavy, in carrying
the project through, as would the
proposed southern route. Still
another advantage of the northern
route would be the fact that easy
connections could be made will
