W ays running up against facts that

of]
constitutes a vast area of the unde
veloped west. Ixick of railroads make
long distances in Idaho. The Meadows
Eagle tells of a trip Fred Mullin,
editor of the Long Valley Advocate,
made to Idaho City, the county seat of
his home county. He traveled
miles by stage: 312 by rail, and it
consumed six days and four nights of
time, to say nothing of the expense.
The editor of Mining News sent a
letter to Roosevelt the other day.
Roosevelt is in this county, but it took
nine days for the letter to reach its
destination, and that by continuous
travel. One can reach New York
quicker. The Roosevelt letter traveled
some three hundred miles by stage,
six hundred miles by rail, and touched
two states.
