operation of the 6rst Twelve miles of
the Johnson road out OF Lewiston.
The step assured as well the compile
tion of the entire system as original
iy planned, connecting with the Nez-
perez & Idaho road at Vollmsr, after
traversing Craig mountain, for there
is no doubt that like spirit OF CO
operation will be met by interested
people along the line of the road as
It is extended through the rich Craig
mountain districts.
The formal closing of the arrange
ments involving the fund of over
$50, 900 occurred yesterday after
noon at the Offices of the Nezperce &

the plan for securing the fund met
there.
Following the meeting Mr.. John
son made the statement that the IL
miles of road out of Lewiston would
be ready for operation within 6ve
months. About six miles of the grad
ing has been completed and track has
been laid for a distance of two miles
out of the city. Tie shipments are
now being received and track laying
will be Immediately resumed. There
are now two miles of rails in the yards
for this work and arrangements have
been completed for the delivery of
he additional rails Within so days

ion equipment for the handling of

RESERVE BOARD TO FIX
RATES FOR REDISCOUNT
Officials Today VIII Take Up Most
Important Task Yet in Opening
of Banks Monday.

The Federal Reserve Board will take
up today the most important task that
remains in connection with the opening
of the twelve reserve banks next Mon
day-the designation Of the opening rates
for rediscount for the various banks.
Each Of the banks had communicated
to the board its ideas as to the proper
rate for the conditions now prevailing
In its district. the last bank to do this
being the New York City Bank. which
reported to the board through Federal
Reserve Agent Pierre Jay yesterday aft
ernoon, and today the board will ap-
prove or disapprove the recommendations
in each case
It is a foregone conclusion that the
rates will differ for the various districts
according to the condition OF the money
market in the territory affected, and that,
in general, the rates will be lower for the
Southern districts than for the districts
Of the West and East This territorial
difference will be made in consideration
Of the comparative easiness OF the money
market in the New York, Boston, and
the Western districts and Of the immedi-
ate needs for money felt in the cotton
producing States.
Secretary Parker Willis, under instruc-
tIons from the board, tabulated the sug-
