T...And the lower part was to become part of Nevada. The Bill actually passed both the House & Senate, but died on Pres. Cleveland's desk. All he had to do was sign it, and Idaho would've ceased to exist. Here is the story: Two bills were introduced into the forty-ninth Congress to satisfy the aspirations of Washington Territory and northern Idaho.<br /><br />One of these (S.B. 67) was introduced by Senator Dolph of Oregon,<br />and provided for the admission of Washington to the Union<br />with northern Idaho annexed. The other was introduced by Delegate<br />Voorhees of Washington (H.B. 2889) and had for its sole object<br />the annexation of the Panhandle strip to Washington Territory.<br /><br />Both bills proposed the same line of division:<br />"Commencing at a point in the middle of the Blain channel of<br />Snake liver due west of the headwaters of Rabbit creek /0 thence<br />due east to the headwaters of Rabbit creek; thence down the middle<br />of said Rabbit creek to its junction with Salmon river; thence up<br />the middle of said Salmon river to the junction of Horse creek;<br />thence up the middle of said Horse creek to the junction of the East<br />Fork of said creek; thence up the middle of East Fork of Horse<br />creek to the crest of the Bitterroot range of Mountains."<br />Marcus9957https://www.blogger.com/profile/08447435153694718855noreply@blogger.com
