Arney In N. P. Employ.

Charles E. Arney, a vel
known newspaper correspondent
who formerly resided for many
years at Boise and other south
Idaho points, has been selected
by the Northern Pacific railway
company to have charge of its
western immigration and indus
trial agency soon to be opened at
Spokane. The district to be
under the supervision of Mr..
Arney will include Idaho, Wash
ington and Oregon.
Speaking of the creation of the
agency an N. P. bulletin says:
The greatest interest the
Northern Pacific has always TAX
en- in advertising throughout the
east and middle west, the wond-
ful and unlimited resources of all
of its territory, has served to
ripen the demand for this new
feature. The agency is estab-
lished for the purpose of gather
ing the very best data as to the
various towns and the adjacent
country along the Northern Pa
cific in this territory.
Investigating Of a thorough
and studied character will be
made of the agricultural and
other resources, from which data
will be secured and literature
assembled for circulation through
the many and varied avenues of
publicity now used by the North
ern Pacific system.
The new agency will take
immediate interest in the COM
mercial life and the various or
ganized efforts of all the COM
munities in these states, and will
establish and maintain close re-
lations with their progress.
Mr.. Arney is a well-known
neWspaperman, and is thorough
ly acquainted with the resources
and possibilities of the states in
which he is to labor. He has
lived in these states for twenty
five years, and has wide
knowledge of general conditions
in the territory.
"On March l he will open
headquarters in Spokane, and
will actively engage in the work
outlined-the settlement and in
dustrial development of t h e
country along the Northern Pa
cific. The Northern Pacific
desires to secure the
very best information first hand,
that will be of the greatest value
to the people who are eager to
migrate to the mountain and
Pacific states"

Development League Plans
Excursion to Portland
Live Stock Show.

Commercial bodies and citizens
generally of the eight counties
embraced in the Idaho Washing
ton Development League have
been invited to participate in a
special Livestock Excursion to
Portland, Oregon, March 18th to
goth. The object of the excur-
sion is two-fold, first, to quicken

by attending the Pacific North
west Livestock Show to be held

and second, to further neighbor-
ly relations with the commercial
bodies and citizens of the towns

Arrangements have been made
through joint committees of the
Idaho-Washington Development
League and the Lewiston Com
mercial Club whereby the excur-
sionists will be handled in special
trains, going by way of Camas
Prairie, Northern Pacific and S.
P. & S. and returning by way of
the O.-W. R. & N. Co. The
special train will leave Lewiston
at 800 P. M. Sunday, March II.
1t will consist of baggage car,

observation car, and will be
electric lighted throughout. The
time of leaving Lewiston is ar
ranged to allow for connection
from NeZperce, Camas Prairie,
Clearwater and Palouse points.
The plan is to stop at Pasco a
few hours Sunday evening, at
tend church services and listen
to a booster sermon by a preach
er to be selected, also meeting

A Correction.

In a recent issue of the Chron-
icle we stated that it was the in
tention of the Sisters of st. Ger
trude's Convent to establish an
academy for young ladies when
they erect their new convent
building. We have learned since
that this is a mistake and that
the new building, when erected,
will be used solely for convent
purposes. We gladly correct the
error.

WEIGH RAISES /.
MUCH Cash
Secures $1O,OOO,OOO in Ore
gon and Use Part to De-
velop Horseshoe Bend.

Copies of the Eugene Guard,
published at Eugene, Oregon,
and containing lengthy articles
relative to the operations of A.
Welch and associates in the Will
lamette valley have been receiv-
ed in the city, says Sundays
Lewiston Tribune. One of the
important matters brought to
light is the fact that Mr.. Welch
has recently mortgaged his Will
lamette valley and southwestern
properties for $1O,OOO,0OO and
the enterprises now being carri-
ed on will not call for an expend-
ature of more than one-half of
this sum.
A copy of the mortgage was
recently filed at Eugene, the
county seat of Lane county, and
the opinion prevails that the
funds to carry to completion the
development of the Salmon river
electrical project at Horseshoe
Bend in Idaho are provided in
this mortgage. At the time the
filings were made, statement
was made that the development
Of the power project would be
commenced within the next
ninety days.
Mr.. Welch is now engaged in
the construction of an electric
line from Albany to Corvallis,
Monroe, Eugene and Elmira and
will serve the big timber district
in the upper Siuslaw country.
The surveys made on the Sal
mon river show possibility of
l25, 600 horse power at an esti-
mated cost of $3,O0O,OO0, this
sum also providing for the cleo
trical equipment. 1t is believed.
in some quarters that Mr.. Welch
is now working in conjunction
with the Hartman lines and that
portions of the Hartman main
line railroad will be operated by
electrical power.
In Lewiston and throughout
the prairie country the impress
sion prevails that Mr.. Welch is
associated with z. A. johnson.
the builder of the Nezperce
road, in his projects and that the
plan is to build electric lines not
only serving the prairie country,
but also providing a road by way
of Waha that will connect the
prairie system with the open
river at Lewiston. It is also be-
lieved that time will disclose that
the Welsh interests now control
all the electric lighting projects
serving the field east of Lewis
ton.
