Railway Interests In Northern Michigan ara looking up," said ex-Mayor Nestor, of Marquette, recently. "We are opening up the country rapidly, and, if present Indica tions are not wrong', It will not be lonjr be fore we shall have for the first time direct communication with Chicago. We have built a great many miles of railway within the last for.r years In the Upper Peninsula the 'Soo' Line, the Duluth, South Bhore & Atlantic, tho Milwaukee A Northern, the Milwaukee, Lake Shore fc Western, nnd eome considerable extension to the Chi cago & Northwestern system in all, over one thousand miles which open nr territory rich In minerals. Tho ' latest project is a line from Marquette to Champion, the present terminus of the M. & N. The new road takes a northwesterly course up the valley of the dead liiver from Marquette, and after getting out about ten miles on the river, to Upper Falls, strikes off to the west and the towns of . Negaunee and Ishpeming, thence ou In the some di rection to the Champion mines. - - The dis tance is about thirty-live miles. The upper falls have always been on impediment to the rafting of lumbor; consequently the road will naturally get the carrying of some five hundred million feet of pine and vast quantities of other timber from the upper branches of the river. Besides this it runs through rich timbsr belts nearly all the way to Negaunee and opens up a dis tinctively new mineral range lying north of the present developed one. A LAND FIGHT DECIDED.
