proposition was carried by 131 majority

issued at the first meeting OF the con-
missioners. and Il survey Of the road
will be commenced Immediately. The
officers at the company state that they
expect to have several miles OF track
laid this summer.
The Sax Center Southern project
seems to have fallen through after Kan

they are probably turning t;.eir atten-
tlon to the project mentioned above.
Granite Falls is almost due north OF

EDGERTO.v WANTN IT.

We shall put another "ADvANCE
prediction on record and see how near
we come to it, viz: that the Burlington
extension will follow nearly Oh !. line
with the diagonal road, thus winning
us Il case of beer from our friends John
Mock and Emil Graf. up in Willmont,
and that it will strike Pipestone and
thence pass northwest into Dakota Just
rs fast as possible. 1t will bear north
on the Dakota side to join the Fargo
Southwestern. The Minnesota side has
4 number of streams to cross and is
blutfy, so that railroad building near
the west line is expensive and difficult.
Stick Il pin in this and see how near we
hit it.-Worthipgton ADVANCE.
Should the above he IL true "predic-
ton there will he no question as to
whether we get this road. In following
up the course OF the - Diagonal road
it will strike Murray county about s
miles southeast of here and the only
advisable route will be to bear south OF
the Lost Timber valley and coming in
to the Rock river valley two miles south
of town, and then making almost due
west to Dell Rapids. The chief i'm.
portance of this road to us will be q
direct line into the Iowa and Illinois
coal fields. In this one particular il
will be worth thousands of dollars an
nually to this village alone.-Edgerton

THINKS IT WILL GO TO TRACY.

AS we stated few weeks ago. it is
our opinion that the Burlington &
Northern railroad would either run to
Tracy frcm Wortlington or pass
through the western part of tie county
at the foot OF the ridge. We are OF the
same opinion still, but we think it is
very likely to 60 over the former route.
Nevertheless it does not lessen the
prospects for Il road over the latter, yet
it may not lie that company will build
it. It is certain it is going some place
soon. The Black Hills branch viii! 10
doubt be built to Pipestone City this
fall us the managers have said all along
that when the demand made it neces-
sary they would build it, and now the
crop prospect is suct, that they will
make the demand this fall. The good
crop prospect will also bring the Mime
apolis road from Redwood Falls down
into this country. II our harvest is as
good us Our present prospect indicates
the country will be all cut up with rail
roads in less than year.
Later: 1t is reported that the sur
veyors started north from Worthington
Monday to run line to Tracy. .-Currie

press to speak of thai in the numerous
complimentary notices which we copy
from week to week. They are so down.

in their praise, that we are sure the
