In regard to the westerly extension of
the Little Falls & Dakota railroad, Presi.
dent Willard, in recent letter to gentle,
man at Ortonville, says: AT this time
can only say to you that the route of the
extension beyond Morris will be largely
determined by the amount of aid and other
facilities that may be extended locally to
the organization. From this point of view
it will no doubt be to the interest of your
people to work up and extend to US every
advantage possible to induce US TO adopt
the line to and through your town, and be-
yond to Big Stone City, Dakota.
l suggest that your committee submit as
early as practicable u definite proposition
for the extension of the line as above. At
the time the proposition is received, am
quite certain we will be in position to
act upon it,"
From a number of interviews published
in the North Star it would seem probable
that bonus of $50, 600 or $a5, 900 will be
offered by Ortonville and Big Stone county.
1t is no sure sign of lack of interest,
simply because there ia, 10 all appearances,
so little being said or done in local political
affairs; no indeed, it would rather appear
to be little still hunt with surprise party
attachment We all know that politicians
of the wire pulling order are, as a class,
given to ways that are dark and tricks that
are vain; aud so it may be fully as wei. to
guard against any little spider and fly
game by not accepting the manifest lack
of interest rs real, but rather as designed
for purpose. 1t may be that we arc mis-.
taken that people in general feel little or
no concern in the matter; but as there has
never been an election in this immediate
vicinity that went hy default, as it were,
we may be excused from being suspicious,
as several years experience Oh political bat,
tletields hereabouts, naturally has had an
influence that tends to breed distrust in
our innocent minds. Could such revolu'
ton from intense activity to indifferent
passivcness be reasonably accounted for.
it would look somewhat different; but as
there would seem to be more at stake just
now than ever before, it seems TO our per.
haps sensitive nostrils as if there was an
animal in the fence.
