south 150 mtles to DeSmet or Iroquois. or tIis
the north 100 miles is graded. The second al
vision, from Elliott north fifty miles to Tower
City, on the Northern Pacific line. The third
is from Wisner, a little north Of Elliot. fif,y
miles up the valley Of the Sheyenne to Valley
City, another town on the Northern Pacific
main line. The fourth is from Tower City
northeast seventy-fve miles 10 Crookston, or
Grand Forks, or both. The fifth division is
from Desmet south to Sioux City. On the first
division Of $50 miles, as stated, the grading is
completed 100 miles south from Elliott. The
representatives Of the syndicate Of German
capitalists have agreed to recommend that the
syndicate place the bonds of the entire tliyi-
sion, 100 miles, at $4,000 per mile, or ST.
100000 on the division. Gen. Herman Haupt,
president of the company, has gone to Ger
many to close the deals. The interested of the
syndicate in the division virtually pledges its
support In the completion of the entire road.
The company has recently been strengthened
by the addition of several stong men, among
them Hon. Roscoe Conkln, the great New
York stalwart. That gentleman commands
the financial confidence Of number of men of
wealth, and will prove tower Of strength to
the company. The stock has already been
made out for Mr.. Conklin. He will be one of
the directors of the company. Another gen
tleman, a heavy capitalist whose name the
reporter is not at liberty to give, promoter of
the Northern Pacific in its early days, has writ
ten that he will 60 into the company.
''Will the work be pushed next spring%, the
reporter asked Mr.. Davis.
'They will early next spring iron and equip
the first division. The money to be furnished
by the German syndicate is ample for that pur-
pose. The next work to to be pushed will he
the second division, from Elliott north to Tow
er City. The company will then have line
In operation from the Northern Pacific main
line to the Northwestern's Pierre line. The
point Of junction with the Northwestern can
not be far from Iroquois, and by the Iroqueis
line there is a great north and south route
opened. The Dakota L. Great Southern can
stop there and be paying road. 1t will build
the NTH division on to SIOUX City, beginning
at tho Sioux City snd, if Sioux City is willing
to assist in securing the right of way, depot
grounds, shop site, and help with the expensive
grading at this end. 1t will cost a million
dollars to build the road, with such easy grades
as we want from the north part Of Union
county to Sioux City. The question will be
submitted to Sioux City early in the spring.

Thsre is Hope for the Wheat Growers

There is Hope for tho Wheat Growers.
Farmers this year have had fabulous crops
and ruinous prices. 1t is safe to say that should
this state Of things continue another year,
many would be compelled to turn their atten-
ton to more diversified system of farming.
But there 10 no little encouragement in the sit
ntion for the wheat raiser. Wheat has now
reached such low point, that immense guam
titles are being exported, 10000 bushels be-
ing sent out In one day from the leading sea-
ports. Then We are now delivering our cargoes
at Liverpool at a price which is under the cost
Of production in India. Production the CON-
ing season In our own country will bs largely
lessened. Dakota will till less acreage next
ssaeon than the one just past. while the winter
wheat growing statss will abridge their acre
age BY probably 20 per cent There is hope
and encouragement for the wheat grower in
these faets.-HillsborO Banner.

lative mania. Iron Hill, beggar OH the mar
ket few weeks ago at s@5 cents, jumped
from fifty to eighty cents Thursday, to one dol
lar early yesterday, closing at night at Ito, at
all OF which figures heavy transactions were
reported.
Other stocks were also perceptibly affected,
while the prices of securities generally were
greatly strengthened Eureka, offered at Is
in the morning, could not he bought at II in
the afternoon, while 10 cents was repeatedly
returned for Far West. Both the Eureka and Far
West properties are practically undeveloped,
and that they sheuld command such advanced
prices indicates the contagious and enthusiast
tic character Of the mania which is manifest
among all classes. Nothing else is discussed,
and scarcely anything else was commodity
yesterday.
That developments at the Iron Hill or the
outlook for that property, justify present ex-
element, is matter Of which the Times is not
prepared to speak. Certain it is, however, that
al extreme has not been reached, and if the
almost phenominal results achieved at the
Utica shall be maintained, leading, as they un-
questionably must, in our opinion, to cores
ponding developments elsewhere throughout
the extensive district, an era Of unparalleled
excitement and prosperity is vouched the en-
tire country.
A second Leadville was predicted OF West
Virginia three years ago, and it would now
seem that such prediction is speedily to be YER

high order, and the embellishments number
