Wood River.
The Wood River Valley is located
near the center of Alturas County, Idaho Territory, in the heart of an
immense Mining and fine Agricultural District. Its easily
developed and well-paying mines have attracted the attention of
capitalists, and the out-put of mining camps, only in their infancy,
support not only several good-sized towns with thriving business men
located to stay; but a long and finely equipped line of railroad, built
by the sagacity and enterprise of the Union Pacific Railway. It is
certainly a poor man's paradise. Mines that pay from the grass
roots. Thousands of acres of land produced fabulous crops with
ordinary cultivation, and a home market paying good prices and steady
demand. Hailey, the town shown in the foreground of the
accompanying lithograph, is the most popular and thriving town in the
Wood River Valley. In every thing it is abreast of the times, and
its steady growth will, in a time not far distant, place it among the
largest cities of the North-West. |
