A New Railroad.

HARDWOOD, Sept GA party Of engineers
reached here this morning and commenced the
survey Of railroad due west from where the
st. Paul, Minneapolis & Manl.oba railroad
crosses the Sheyenne river, one and half
miles northwest Of this village. It is uncer-
tain how far west the new road will run, but
it is evidently in opposition to the proposed
road running west one mile south Of here.
The survey now being made is uDquestionably
in the interests Of the st. P, NJ. & M. railroad
It is understood that grading will commence
On the new line at once.
