INDICATIONS.

kThe Canton Advocate publishes a batch
of railroad rumors which possess at least the
merit of sensible reasoning and matt .al con.
illusions. They consist Of the best accepted
reports regarding the coming movements of
railroad lines in southeastern Dakota. We
quote as item number one:
Quite . conmotion was created this week
rs regards certain railroad projects. Outsid-
ers comment upon the fact Of the Chicago &
Northwestern being engaged in running a
line from Tracy ION their Winona & ST. Pc

ness when their men are sent out into the
field, and q consultation of the map leads
one to the conclusion that although they
have one line entering the territory in the
vicinity Of Gary, q hundred miles north Of
Sioux Falls, and q connection to their lows
line via the Dakota Southern and Pembipa,
yet the st. Paul & Sioux City & Sioux Falls

southwesterly colfse to the Missouri riv
for the proposed extension would take
through Sioux Falls to Yankton and aero
the proposed Milwaukee extension som
where near Finlay. The suggestion Of
railroad movement Of this sort opens up
extensive field for speculation. II wouI
give to Yankton direct communication vii
ST. Paul, Duluth, Milwaukee and Chicse
over the Chicago & Northwestern, St. PA
& Sioux City, and the Chicago and Milwa,
kee & st. Paul lines.
The Advocate announces as item numbe
two the following:
Considerable credence is given to the RI
mors that the Milwaukee company is aer
iously considering the project of .perfectin!
amicable arrangements with both the 81
Paul and Sioux Falls and Pembina roads
The 81. Paul company have run a line t
| Yankton, and az q connection with he Un
ion Pacific west of Omaha through the rich
country of Northern Nebraska has been one
of its ultimate objects, this line would seem
to be in view of this extension.
The suggestion of a desired connection
with the Union Pacific railroad, re-opens a
subject which has been much discussed in
Ysnkton during the years Of the past. A
north and south line from Yankton to Col
umbus, ninty miles in length, would give u.s.
railroad link which would compel other
trunk lines to come to our doors. By strik-
ing a point west of Columbus the congress
ional act Of July 2, 1864, granting a sub
,idy for the construction of "the north
Of the Union Pacific road" might
be taken advantage Of. Without the aid Of
my such enactment it seems to us that the
Union Pacific connection is of sufficient i'm
p~ortance to attract our serious consideration.
It would join together the northern railroad
'ystem and the central railroad system and
:ender Yankton an important half way
,oint between the two.
The Advocate holds that the Milwaukee
company has declared its Dakota river
at Firesteel and that this declara-
lion cuts off the direct westward movement
Of both the Chicago & Northwestern and
The St: Paul & Sioux City roads and COM
pels them to seek a western outlet farther
south. Then, as item number three, the
Advocate says:
On Monday last reports came that there
propositions being considered for the
company to construct its line
for a lower crossing of the James river,
and connect with the Yankton and Sioux
Falls line at a point as would leave a rea-
sonable extent of country for the St. Paul
company, and also give the Milwaukee
company a connection with Yankton over
the St. Paul road, also to form a connection
With Sioux City Ella the Pembina and to
this theory, it is said that Merrill,
Of the Milwaukee, Drake, Of the St. Paul,
and Merchant, Of the Pembina, are in New
York, where ii any arrangements Of the
kind are to be they will be made.
All of which indicates that the railroad
magnates fare e%ndeavoring to make each
other come to terms. -Four corporations
are struggling to secur the business Of the
southeastern corner of Dakota.
There is not room for all of them and some
sort of a compromise must come out of the
of interests. 1t would be profitable
For, Yankton to take a hand.

In extending such pressing invitations
(as various writers for the Pioneer Press
and other papers do) to the. charming eli
mate and other advantages to be gained
in Minnesota, there is one class entirely
neglected, namely, sea captains, or sailors
generally, those particularly engaged in
the Atlantic trade. Fancy how much at
home they would feel out on the prairie
with the wind blowing so or so knots an
hour. They could use their trumpets with
such good effect and be heard where lands
men would have no chance. And then,
too, they would have ample use for what
are termed sea-legs, for ordinary land ones
