Weiser Signal Critiques Rail Rates Controversy
The Weiser Signal rebuts a World magazine critique of railroad freight costs. It argues that the P and I N railroad depends on Weiser as a distributing point and counters claims that U S L rates are higher, citing mining companies funding a wagon road to Pollock and plans to ship machinery to Marshall Lake. The piece asserts evidence supports lower P N rates and appeals for rail-ward fairness.

Supreme Court ruling on Weiser bridge funds and debt limits
The court refuses to restrain from issuing bonds authorized by the legislature, leaving the state appropriation for the Weiser bridge intact. The ruling does not affect the sugar bounty bill. It holds that biennial appropriations do not create a constitutional debt, and work on the bridge may resume soon to finish quickly.
