The following, clipped from an article
on Railroad Prospects, in the Little Falls
Transcript, is given for what it is worth:
We also explained our reasons why the
Little Falls & Dakota would necessitate its
continuance 10 Lake Superior, through the
eastern part of this county; and we are
firmly OF the belief that there can be but
little hope of its construction at all unless
il Is made through line from Dakota to
the lake. There are other reasons con.
tirming our belief, which we would emu
merate if space permitted, prominent
among which are the recent actions of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul and the
st. Paul and Manitoba companies in rcla
ton to their Dakota extensions.
