Payette Power Plant
 
Survey for the Electric Line to Boise Completed
 
The engineer for the Boise Payette River Electric Power company completed the 
survey yesterday of the electric line from the plant to Boise.  The route 
proved to be 20 miles long, which was about two miles shorter than had been 
expected by the engineer.  A branch line two and one-half miles long leading 
off to Pearl from the main line, was also surveyed.
 
It is understood the route surveyed is the one that will be followed by the 
company in construction of the line to this city.  It was noticeable that the 
line kept as far away from the telegraph and telephone lines as possible.
 
Work on the canal and power plant is progressing slowly as only a small force 
is employed.  It is reported that the force will be increased as soon as the 
weather is settled.
