WILL EXTEND THE ROAD.
A train load of material for the
extension of the Soo road from
Underwood north passed through
the city last week. The officers of
the Soo line say that if it had not
been for wet weather and delays on
the Winnipeg branch, they would
have built twenty-five miles of the
addition north of Underwood this
season. They now have two sur
veying parties in the field and are
preparing to build early in the
spring and begin upon the exten
sion of the road. There will be
considerable railroad building next
year in McLean county according
to present indications and no one
knows yet just where the great rail
way center of the county will be.—
Wilton News.
NEW YORK FOR ROOSEVELT.
Senator W. D. Washburn has re
turned from a trip east, visiting
New York, Washington and other
large cities, and is very enthusias
tic over what he believes will be a
landslide for the Republican party
at the coming election.
"The president, himself," said
Mr. Washburn' is confident as to
the outcome, and I don't think
there can be any doubt of it. I
anticipate President Roosevelt's
election will be in the nature of a
landslide.
I make this assertion," contin
ued Mr. Washburn, "after having
talked with people in the east, and
they all seem to be of the same
opinion. New York and all the
doubtful states will be for Presi
dent Roosevelt."
The cat is out of the bag. In
the last issue of the Underwood
Miner, Farmer Budd states that
Gen. Washburn will not be called
upon to either give or sell a site for
tbe court house should the county
seat be removed to Underwood.
Now General Washburn owns the
entire portion of section 21, the
present townsite beine upon the
northwest quarter. .North of this
is section 16, a school section, and
the* only inference that can be
drawn from Farmer Budd's article
is that the court house would be
located upon section 20, west of
the town. So now the county seat
removal deal has developed into a
plain proposition to boom a really
addition, we will all be able to vote
intelligently. Sorry, but we have
gone out of real estate kiting down
this way. The Mandan Times
congratulates editor Harris on the
fact that he is not the parent of
twins. At the same rate for two,
his future would certainly have
been rather strenuous.-The Wilton
News.
FARMERS BUY LAND.
Jim Wakeman has been sojourn
ing for a week with some of the
McLean county farmers to whom
he bad sold land four years ago
when in the employ of thg Wash
burn Land company. To these
same people he made sales of three
quarter sections of land at good
prices—200 to 300 per cent on
what the nam* Lapd
Deen uouku* -oar jfiwrt
fie
iwpansaootc wi uig toots
of these farmers naa mis year.
Jjevi Miller, who lives on section
21-147-82, had 38£ bushels of tfo.
1 hard wheat to the acre. Bush
brothers on section 11-146-82, had
28 bushels wheat and 26 bushels of
flax to the acre. These results
were had on land that four years
that cost the present owners $4.50
per /acre Lars Peterson, a new
oomer to McLean county, has 80
bushels of oats to the acre. John
Renter, on section 13-148-82, had
23 bushels of wheat to the acre.
Allowing these farmers $5.00 per
acre for labor and seed, from which
alone they can make a living, and
figuring wheat at $1.00 per bushel,
which is approximately the price
that has obtained in this section
this year, and it is no wonder they
are land hungry.—Bismarck Trib
