Description
Excerpt from The History of Idaho
The endeavor has been to give a statement of the operations of the people since Territorial organisation up to statehood in l 890, with a brief reference to some of the legislative enactments at each session, the times, where held, names of all members, financial con dition of the Territory from time to time, with frequent accounts of the progress made by the people in the settlement of the coun try, including the varions modes of transportation, mining, farm ing, irrigation, kind of land, area of territory by counties, stock raising, Indian wars, building of railroads, schools, churches, etc. In fact, most everything of importance connected with Territorial days has been at least touched upon. The aim has been to give a brief history of the most important events connected with the set tlement and development of the country through Territorial days more than twenty-seven years - and at the same time not to have the book so voluminous as to be cumbersome to either old people or children; and also to give a brief review of the progress made by the people of Idaho since statehood up to 1909, with a brief view of the outlook for the future.
