Our Railroad.

The Directors Of the Minnesota and Pa.
ci6c Railroad met at St. Paul on Monday
and resolved TO run their road up Main
Street, St. Anthony and to have running
there in two weeks, to extend the road IA
Anoka this fall, and to St. Cloud mex.
season. Some of the St. Anthony people
oppose the Main Street route and may be
able to compel delay but if not the com.
pany will doubtless carry ont the pro
gramme laid down.
On our late trip down We had the pleas
ure Of seeing the Iron horse on Minneso.
IA soil, snoring along before his tender,
baggage car and two passenger cars. l,
was : welcome sight, but the usefulness
Of the road is very much lessened by its
St Paul terminus being 80 far from the
business center Of the city.
