ON WHITEHEAD SIDE
REPORT COAL STRIKE
IN LAWYERS CANYON

Much interest is being aroused over
the reported strike of coal in Cen
trail ridge, near the top of Peck grade
about three miles from Nezperce. 1t
IS said that a 6-foot vein, thought TO
be very extensive, has been found.
Samples of the coal taken to Nez-
perez for testing are said to be of
good quality and TO burn well.
Colonel Ball, an auctioneer, holds
lease from Turner brothers, on the
mineral rights on 1000 acres of land
located about four miles southeast of
Nezperce. He asserts that there is
plenty of coal in the holdings to pay
for extensive development. In the
lease he agrees to develop the pro
Perty, and the work is to start at
once, it is understood.
The discovery of the vein was
brought about by Investigations ear
ried on quietly for several months
Following the noticing of indications
on the hillsides, in Lawyers canyon,
and in the cuts made by roads
through the hills.

BETTER ROAD To
COTTONWOOD
IS NEEDED
Only Open Link on North and
South Highway for 10
Miles

Only between Grangeville and Cot
tonwood is there any part of the North
and South highway from Lewiston to
Lucille that will not be built this
season, according to William Osborne
district highway engineer, who was
in Grangeville from Lewiston, Satur-
day.
In distance of more than ITO
miles, the road either has been fin
ished, construction is under way, or
will be under way within few weeks,
save the twenty miles lying between
Grangeville and Cottonwood.
Commissioners of the Cottonwood
highway district, according to Mr..
Osborne. have expressed willingness TO
cooperate in the building of the high
way east from Cottonwood to the
Fem highway district, as soon as
the Fem and Grangeville districts
enter the game.
From the state two million dollar
bond issue. the Fem district derived
S52S2 .O6, which must be expended on
DESIGNATED state highways, according
10 Mr.. Osborne. AS the North and
south highway is the only designated
state highway in the Fem district,
The money must necessarily be expend-
ed on this road
Tentative route selected by the
state for the North and South high
wav, in the Fem district, is by way
of Denver. Mr.. Osborne expects 10
go over this route within two weeks
and make such recommendations to
tbe state bureau of highways as his
tour will prompt.

mon River Country; Work

Board of commissioners of Idaho

courthouse in Grangdville, Saturday.
transferred to the state highway bu.
reau $S259.02, representing the cOun-
state highway bond issue. This sum
was allotted to the county for use
on designated state highways out
side organized highway districts.
The state bureau of highways will
use the $825902 together with $1479.-
81. waived in favor of the state by
the Lake highway district, and $13.-
9l5.SS of state money, for surfacing
with crushed rock the North and
South highway from the end of the
present .macadam stretch, four miles
southwest from Grangeville, to the
top of Whitebird hill.
SOON ASK FOR BIDS
The state highway department will
shortly call for bids on this Job. and
it is expected work will be under way
within few weeks.
Hard-surfacing of the Grangeville
end of the Whitebird road will make
the North and South highway be-
tween Grangeville and Salmon river
open to automobile traffic virtually
the entire year. During the winter
and spring months, it is with great
difficulty, and at times impossible, for
automobiles to travel between Grange
vile and Whitebird. For several
weeks, the road up the mountain from
the north side has been deep with
mud, owing to late SHOWS, and the
fact that the road, passing through
heavily timbered country, dries slow
ly, because of timber shutting out
the sun IS rays.
ON WHITEHEAD SIDE
II is probable that it will be found
necessary to macadamize the road for
two or three miles on the Whitebird
side of the summit This piece of
road, however, with the present dirt
surface, does not present the Difficult
ties to travel that are encountered on
the north side.
William Osborne. district highway
engineer, of Lewiston, was in confer
ence with the county board on the
subject of surfacing the North and
South highway, Saturday.
