three gentlemen being Lewiston res

discuss road matters, and particu-
larly the survey and construction of
the Lewis and Clark Highway. The
party, arriving on the train, were
met at the depot and escorted by
autos to the Rex Theatre. where an
earnest and Interested assemblage
listened to lecture on highway
matters by Mr.. Hall and discus
sion by others.
| The meeting adjourned about
$3.50 p. m. and reconvened in the
Orofino Club rooms in the Burns
and Brown block at s p. m. The

| Perce county, and the North Fork,
Orofino, GrangemDnt and Clearwat-
er Highway Districts of Clearwater
county were represented and the To-
| cation of the Lewis and Clark High
way was thoroughly gone over. The
predominating opinion of the Clear
water county representatives was
that the highway should be located
on the north side of the river.
The engineers apparently favored
the south side, but finally agreed to
survey a line on the north side OF
the Clearwater and compare the
cost of construction, number OF
people accommodated and general
advantages to the travelling public
which was satisfactory to all. The
final location of this important
highway will again be considered
when the survey is completed on
the north side OF the river
