Meeting Link Between the North and South

State Highway Engineer Booth Now Lewiston to Confer
With Officers of District; Commence Work Soon
as Satisfactory Arrangements Made

That the citizens of Idaho county.
and the entire north part Of the state,
are under obligations to Secretary of
State George r. Barker, for the inter-
est he has taken in the matter of as
sisting toward the securing of convict
labor to take up the work Of construct
ing a highway between north and south
Idaho, is clearly set forth in the fol-
lowing statement appearing in the Boise
papers of the 14th. The Grangeville
Commercial Club recently sent copies
of resolutions passed by that body and
by the citizens of Higgins favoring the
beginning OF construction work with
convicts on the highway from Meadows
to Grangeville, to the governor, the
state highway commission and to War
den Shook of the state penitentiary,
and also wrote Secretary of State Bark
er, on the subject The following state
ment sets forth the favorable action
taken in the matter, for which this
community is under. obligation to all
concerned:
The north and south state highway
will be built in-so- far as is possible by
convict labor thereby connecting the
northern and southern sections Of this
state with a road that can stand heavy
travel and which will be safe from one
end of the year to the other. This was
the decision reached at a meeting of
the state highway commission held
yesterday with Secretary OF State
George r. Barker, at which there were
present Chairman Brodhead of Mack
ay and Commissioner Van Siclxhn Of
weiser, together with State Highway
Engineer Booth. The decision Is Of the
utmost Importance for 1t Is the initial
step towards making the connecting
link between the north and south and
will precede the building Of the rail-
road on which the north and south rail-
road commission is now working.
Consider Step important.
The highway commission was unani-
nous In its decision to start comvicts
to work ON the north and south road.
The work win commence on or about
Jan. 1, 1916. As large crew Of con-
victs as 1t is safe to work at one time
viii be removed from the state peni-
tentiary to Higgins in Idaho county
where the preliminary camp will be
Installed The route Of the highway
as designated by the commission Is
from weiser to New Meadows. thence
to Pollock and Grangeville via higgins
A resolution was passed by the commits
sion making tn designation OF the route
and declaring for convict labor on the
work.
The fact that convict labor on road
work has proven success in the test
made ON the Shoshone grade. leads the
state highway commission to believe
the same labor will be a success In
helping towards the construction OF
the north and south highway. The
Shoshone grade work was somewhat of
an experiment The prison labor Is
now found to be very satisfactory so

far as good roads are concerned and
Is beneficial to the prisoners
1t has been repeatedly urged that
some definite action be taken towards
the building of not only a north and
south railroad but a north and south
highway. 1t has been ersistently
claimed that a north and south highway
should precede construction of a north
and south railroad.
State Highway Engineer f. M Booth
arrived in Lewiston Monday night from
Boise to confer with the commissioners
of the Lewiston Highway district on
matters pertaining to the construction
OF the state highway from the city to
the Idaho Washington line at the top
of the Uniontown hill. Engineer Booth
will be in Lewiston for the next ten
days and win visit Grangevile and
other north Idaho points.
First Convict Honor Camp.
In an interview with the Tribune
Mr.. Booth stated that the state Is
maintaining its first convict honou
camp ON the north side @ the Sho-
shone grade and up to the present time
1t has been a complete succ ess. Thirty
five honor prisoners are employed In
this camp and with them are three
forem EN- guards, but there are no guns
in the camp and there has been no
trouble with the convicts. The men are
paid IS per month for their services
and Lincoln county Is paying two-thirds
of the cost of maintaining the camp.
1t is proposed to Increase the number
of convicts to about so and move the
camp to a point near Higgins where
work wdll be commenced on the north
| and south highway in the event a sat
| isfactory arrangement can be made with
the board OF county commissioners of
Idaho county.
Twin Falls county has had repre-
sentatives before the state highway
commission and offered TO bear the
entire expense of the convict camp
! In the event convicts are prt to work
ON the south side of the Shoshone
grade. 1t is the policy of the state
to use the convicts on such road con-
struction as Is impractical to have the
work performed by contract. 1t Is a
new venture with the state but from
present information, 1t would appear
that the work being performed by the
prison labor is much cheaper to The
county than similar road Improvement
could be secured by contract
State Highway Engineer e. M Booth
came up from Lewiston and is in the
city today for the purpose of discuss
ing the north and south highway from
Meadows to Camas prairie and on tc
Lewiston There will be a meeting Cd
the citizens with Mr. Booth at the Inn
perial hotel this evening at O'Clock
when he will present the matter from
his viewpoint and will get an expires
sion from the local business men as tt
their desires and purposes.

Girls Team Loses In Close Contest FRI
day Night.
In the closest basket ball game in
the history of the school the local high
school boys bested the Cottonwood school
in the latter city. Friday night. by a
score of 81 10 "a The same evening the
Cottonwood girls defeated the Grange
vile girls in a II 10 contest.
Sensational basket shooting on the
part of Dugald Holsclaw gave the To-
cal boys a multitude of scores which
the fast team work OF the cross prai-
rie team could not approach. The
Grangeville boy made 21 OF the 27
scores. Cottonwood made is fouls from
which Grangeville made IL scores.
The Cottonwood team had been de-
clared the best on the two prairies and
played an exceptionally good game while
Coach Cook, OF the local school, had
a practically new team, but 1t played
a better game and will put Grangeville
on the athletic map this winter. At the
end of the second half the score was a
tie and 1T required three extra periods
Of five minutes each to decide the game
Both teams played a steady, clean
game although 1t was unnecessarily
rough. Jess Rogers starred for Cot
tonwood while the feature of the game
was a spectacular basket throw by Ho-
mer Eimers which gave Grangeville the
winning score.
The girls game was rather slow and
showed lack of practice ON both sides.
The Cottonwood girls were all much
larger than our girls and naturally had
the advantage. May Manring, a former
county seat girl, was the chief player
for the winners her work being fast
and sure and won the game. For
Grangeville Mae ,Lanningham starred
although the whole team did well con-
siderine that this Is their first game
Mrs D. f. r. Rice is coaching the
girls and will have a much better team
when return game is played in the
near future.
Prof. Greenough Of Cottonwood ref
creed both games. A large crowd at
tended the contest and the cheering was
plentiful. Mrs. ID. F. r. Rice and Coach
Cook accompanied the teams which re-
turned home the same night. A large
number of rooters went over who en-
joyed the game and dance, which was
given afterward.
