Idaho Statesman June 17, 1875
 Our readers will notice that Wm. A. West and others have petitioned or rather 
will apply to the Board of County Commisioners to establish a ferry on Snake 
River at the Old Brown Lee crossing, also for a license to establish a toll 
road from the Belmont Mine leading to this ferry. It was thought in the early 
settlement  of this country that the Brown lee route would be the principal 
road, but it soon fell into disuse and has been abandoned. It is not 
improbable, should a good town be built in the vicinity of the Weiser mines, 
that the Brown Lee route may still be the main traveled road to Grande Ronde.
