The selecting of Lake Nett

the summer meeting of the

thing. You can stay up in the

The Twin Falls times. [volume] (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1905-1916, 1916-05-11

apropos of the reorganization of the
Western Pacific, the Tribune of Cas-
per, Wyo., says:
Eastern papers are commenting to
some extent on the Chicago & North
western railroad assuming control of
the defunct Western Pacific road from
Salt Lake to the Pacific coast, and
now in the hands of receivers. 1t is
assumed that in the event the North
western successfully bids for the West
ern Pacific, its road to Casper would
be extended through the South pass
district to Salt Lake, thereby forming
a junction and linking the gap for a
through line. Local officials of the
road say the plan is not in the least
improbable, but are non-committal in
advancing further information.
Should the Northwestern acquire
the Western Pacific it would have a
continuous line from Chicago to the
coast with the exception of the gap be-
tween Lander and Salt Lake, a dis
lance of about 800 miles, which, it is
said, would not be difficult matter to
build, with the exception of about 40
miles of precipitous grade fair ag-
ricultural and livestock tonnage would
eventually be tributary to such line"

points. We are going to make the
Western Pacific a road which will pay
its own way, and at the same time
give service.
1.-THE Boise line will be built, but
whether it will go through the Twin
Falls country or from Winnemucca is
to be determined"
About II years ago, when the West
ern Pacific was started, e. ]. Yard,
then chief engineer of the Denver &
Rio Grande railway, which was back
of the Western Pacific, conferred with
r w Faris of the Faris-Kesl Con-
struction company, which company
was then completing the Twin Falls
Land & Water company's dam at Mil
ner. Mr.. Yard was looking into the
feasibility of a Western Pacific line
from Salt Lake to the coast via Boise
which would be the company's main
line to the Orient.
At the request of Mr.. Yard, Mr.
Faris placed a reconnaissance party in
the field to run a line from Twin Falls
to Boise. The plan of the Western Pa
cific was to start from the west side
of Great Salt Lake, pass over the Kel-
ton divide to Raft river; down Raft
river through the south side of the
Minidoka project; through the South
| Side Twin Falls tract; across the
/ Snake river and over the North Side
tract, by way of Gooding; up to Camas
/ prairie; down the Boise watershed tC
Boise; over to Ontario or Nyssa, anc
through to the Oregon coast.
1t was found that by skirting the
foothills from Camas prairie and strik-
ing the Boise river near the mouth Of
the canyon above Barber, a feasible
route with comfortable grades coulC
be obtained. This line, it was discov
cred, would be superior to a water
grade by way of the south fork of tn,
Boise.
At that time the Twin Falls countr,
was in sagebrush 1t had not beer
demonstrated. Nor had the Nortl
Side Twin Falls project been launched
The Raft river country had not beer
developed, nor were there any dr.,
farmers along the route. Conditions
have improved wonderfully along thu
proposed line within the past 10 years
and the extension now has something
substantial behind it.
Those who are familiar with tn
route suggested when the Western Pa
citic was started, draw attention t.
the fact that since it was first pro
) posed, the Oregon Short Line has bull
from Burley to Marshfield and is ex
tending to Raft river in the direction
: OF helton, Utah. 1t has also bull
from Rlchfield across Camas prairie T.
Hill City, likewise up the Malheu
: river to Juntura, which would indi
cate that it aDDreciated at least nor
tlons OF the route selected by tn
: Western Pacific.
The reorganization of the Westerl
Pacl1ic Is now in process of consum
nation IN San Francisco, and those i
touch with the situation are confiden
that 1t will be effected and that a
Idaho feeder will be built with tn
funds made available for the purpose
