ACCOMPLISHED!
River Falls No Longer to be
an Isolated Village
Grading on the New Road Ia be
Commenced i'm 80 Bays!

The Rail Road meeting of Saturday
afternoon proved what had been antic-
ipated-a success as to numbers, en-
thusiasm and amount of money raised.
Stirred by the enlivening strains of
our Band: stimulated by the ringing
addresses of Messrs. Thompson and
Stickney, of st. Paul; Sabin, of Still
water; and Parker. of the Normal;
cheered by the applause that greeted
every subscription, especially on the
part of those who had been considered
unfriendly to the project;-our citi-
zens came up TO the task handsomely;
everybody gave as much as he was
able to give; the best of feeling pre-
vailed; and great was the rejoicing
when it was announced that the
amount thought sufficient for the pur-
chase of right of way and depot
grounds-$5, 000--had been raised.
River Falls has done its duty nobly;
now, with the same result at Hudson
and the promise of st. Paul that with
in thirty days the grading will be COM
menced, we see no reason why we
should not be placed into closer COM
munication with the outer world by
the first day of August.
