Show I JOEL PRIEST GOES UP M The announcement of the promotion of Joel L. M Priest to be general agent for the Oregon Short m ' Line Railroad company in Idaho to represent all 1 branches of the service at Boise, Is well deserved H and little less gratifying to Mr. Priest than to his H hundreds of friends all over the intermountaln H country. His popularity in newspaper and rail- M road circles has been gauged in the past only by m the number of people wno knew him and if he B continues In the way he has begun, we can see Hj him sitting up in the big office in New York, a B perfectly good "railroad maggot," with nothing to H do but sign annual passes for all of his friends in H the West. Then wo and "Marse Henry" and all H tho rest of Kentucky will pay tribute to Joe and H his Jimmy pipe. |
