NEW TOWN ON SPOKANE RIVER

The townsite of Chamokane has been platted by the Chamokane Lumber company, near their mill on the Spokane river near the new power plant of the Washington Water Power company at Little Falls. It is the belief of the promoters that the town will become one of the important centers of Lincoln county, it being the gateway to the Spokane Indian reservation, and with an abundance of power right at home for manufacturing and other industries. The town is to be the southern end of the new railroad being constructed by the Washington Water Power company, and the Phoenix Lumber company from Springdale, and the Big Bend Transit company is planning to build a road from Spokane which will touch that point.
