County Board Busy As It Reviews Timber Extension and Appointments
The Nez Perce county board of commissioners handled a heavy first week with road petitions and bond examinations for precinct officers. Wim Deary of Potlatch Lumber and attorney McFarland urged a twenty year time extension on state timber lands to support a Lewiston mill project costing about 1 million dollars. They warned timber owners would otherwise remove holdings, delaying operations. The board also deferred action on appointing an accountant for record transcription for Shoshone county and listed Hastings, Burke, Williams, and Thompson as applicants. The session is expected to continue through the month and into the next.

Faith and Good Works in Pacific Northwest Railways Policy
The Oregon Railroad & Navigation and Southern Pacific Oregon announce an immigration friendly rate cut to 50 percent for movables to the Willamette valley and 33 1/3 percent to Eastern Oregon, aiming to boost settlement and respond to critics of railroads while backing regional growth through a broad advertising and immigration push. The move complements past efforts and signals confidence in the region’s potential and the railroads’ commitment to aiding newcomers.
