General Perrault of Boise
Says Only Feasible Thing
Is to Build to Whine
mucca, Nevada

General Joseph Perrault of Boise,
a pioneer of Idaho and one of the
leaders among the Boise citizens who
are working for the construction OF
railroad from Boise to Winnemucca
that will bring the trade of southwest
ern Idaho into San Francisco, is visit
ing In this city with his family.
General Perrault is interesting himself
in the development Of the railroad idea
and yesterday had a conference on the
subject with William r. Wheeler. man
ager of the traffic bureau OF the San
Francisco Chamber of Commerce.
Since the publication in The Call
OF the need for railroad which will
complete the link between San Fran
cisco and Boise, said General Per-
rault, there have been a number Of
plans suggested for railroad construc-
ton with the purpose in view of open
ing up the Snake river country to the
San Francisco bay region. But be-
yond doubt the only really feasible
plan. and certainly the only economical
plan, is that outlined in The Call and
the one which has already aroused
the citizens of Boise and many influ-
entail business men of San Francisco,
namely. the road which would run from
Boise to Winnemucca, Nevada.
That is the logical route. for it
will mean the construction of but
short gap of railroad. 276 miles. while
any other route would mean the con-
struction of three or four times as much
mileage and the duplication of existing
lines. In Boise we are solid for the
line that will bring us to Winnemucca,
there to connect with the Western Pa
cif1c CT Southern Pacific transconti
mental lines"
Mr.. Perrau1t was United States sur
veyor general of idaho and has held
other high posts In the state. He is
past exalted ruler OF the Ellzs of
Boise and has been honored by San
Francisco lodge during his visit here,
General Perrault was in Idaho in its
earliest days and remembers when San
Francisco was the wholesale jobbing
center for all of that territory. He is
eager to. see the commercial relations
resumed between San Francisco and
Idaho
