New Boats for Upper Snake River Fleet
Report from Lewiston says a steamboat bought by Van Arsdale and associates at Sandpoint will reach Riparia today and be brought to the upper Snake River. Van Arsdale, owner of the Wilhelmina, plans to install larger engines and add a third boat, forming a small independent fleet with support from cement and coal property owners. The Ontario Cooperative Oil and Gas company orders a $12,000 standard rig to begin drilling four wells in shale near Baker City. If oil and gas are found, this area could become a major U S field according to local experts.
