MISSING LINK IN
LINCOLN HIGHWAY

Strange as II may seem. the mis-
sing link In the Lincoln highway
from east 20 northwest has been lost
for all tAase many years, aud as a
result most OF the trans-contineNtaI
travel by autos has heretofore been
diverted at Granger. wyo.. by way OF
Ogden to- Pocatello and northwest
points, when the natural route for
this link " the highway should be
from Granger to Montpelier to Poca-
tello by way of Opal. Kemmerer and

With the building of a shaled road
across webb flat south OF Raymond
and taking new route 20 the top OF
the divide and eliminating Webb HIN
reducing the grade from 80 per cont
to 6 and per cent. Idaho will be
connected up with tho wyoming
shaled highway. which will mean the
opening as tho Granger-Pocatelio
cutoff and reducing the distance be-
tween those points between 70 and
| so miles. Heretofore the Webb
flat has been lmpaSaable on account
OF high water and mud until late In
the season. and consequently the
route hae never been taken into con-
sIderation In the great transcontlnen-
tai highway, but now Bear Lake
county is building a fine graded road
across this mud flat which will be-
ahaled and ready for uBa early this
season. aud besides. the steep grade

changing the location of the road

road officials were unaware OF Wyo-
ming's splendid highways until
n. A. Sullivan informed a member
Of the road commission OF the work
