FOR MILITARY TRAIL
Ezra Meeker, Pioneer, Advocates
Its Use for Military Purposes.

Urging the survey and construction
of a military and post road TO fol-
low the route of the old overland
trail from ST. Louis TO Olympia,
Wash, Ezra Meeker of Seattle, one
of the pioneers who made the trip in
the early COS, appeared before the
House committee on military affairs
recently. At the time of the Por-
land exposition Meeker made the
overland trip with team of oxen
and a cart, as in former days. In
1910 he passed through Mountain
Home with a similar outfit eastward
bound, his mission being to arouse
interest in his scheme to have the
communities through which the old
trail passed mark its line with ap-
propriate monuments.
At Meeker's request Congressman
Humphrey has introduced a bill
authorizing an appropriation to de-
fray the expense of making a sur
vey to determine the location and
cost of such road.
