The british Columbian, of New West
minister. joins in the cry against Port
Moody az the terminus Of the Canadian
Pacific Railroad. Not only does that
harbor freeze owe. in winter, but the
teredo there is perfectly terrific, the
piles of a wharf lasting only little
longer than the time required to com
plete the structure. Piles driven there
for the railroad whar. last year must bs
replaced this year with new piles. Con
sidering these things and the virtual
impossibility of getting the terminus
over on Vancouver Island, the Column
bidn Is led to believe that New West
minister is the only fit place for ter
minus, and that the Company has made
o serious, but not irremediable, blundsr
in not locating there.

MILWAUKEE, Feb. Though Man
ager Merrill refuses to give any infor-
nation ON the subject, it has been
learned from some Of the minor officials
that the Chicago, Milwaukee Il st. Paul
Company has fully decided upon the
building of line in Dakota west from
Aberdeen to the Missouri river. The
matter has been talked of since the road
was completed to Aberdeen, but had
not been decided upon definitely until
recently. The company was brought to
a decision by the movements OF the
Northern Pacific Company, which has
surveyed a line directly through the
part of Dakota claimed by the st. Paul
Company. The line surveyed by the
Northern Pacific commences at point
near Moorhead, runs southwesterly to
Aberdeen, and from thence west to the
Missouri river. The name of this new
Inns will be the Wadena, Fergus Falls j.
Black Hills railway. 1t is not known
when the Northern Pacific Company in
tends to begin work on this extension,
but the St. Paul Company will give it no
opportunity to take the lead. but viii,
begin work west of Aberdeen as soon as
tho weather will permit in tho spring.
~ a. oAohk Wild pAOROS0u llllo tilht Inc
st. Paul Company is locating most of
tho Canadian and American immigrants
that are to take up homes in the prom
ised land the coming season. When
these extensions are completed and the
new lines contemplated by the Chicago
q Northwestern Company-one from
Huron southwest to Chamberlain, and
the other from Lemars, Iowa, northwest
through Mitchell to connect with the
main branch of the Northern Pacific in
the northern part of the Tsrritory-Da-
kota will be better supplied with rail-
roads than any new Territory has ever
been. 1t is not probable, however, that
the Northwestern's extensions mention
ed will DO begun the present year. The
Northwestern Company seems to be in
no hurry to build further in Dakota un-
less forced to do SO by the st. Paul
Company, and upon the latter compa-
uy's movements in the direction of ex-
tensions, depends in a great measure
upon many of the Dakota lines now ex-
listing only on paper. Had it not been
for the aggressive policy of the St. Paul
Company, which apparently threatened
to monopnlize the railroad business of
central and southern Dakota, the Wad-
ena, Fergus Falls l. Black Hills line
would not have been thought of for
years by the Northern Pacific Company.
