Major Macqueen's Talk About the Depot.

Major Macqueen's Talk About the Depot.
Nothing was learned yesterday in
regard to the depot, its location still
being under advisement at st. Paul.
What the ultimate result will be, all
all are anxious about, and none more
so than Major Mcqueen. The Major
was asked his views regarding the To-
cation, yesterday, and he said:
"All the citizens are aware of what
my views are on the subject, and it is
little use expressing myself All
know that | have laid out a lot of
money in this hotel, which / would
not have done If I knew the depot
would have been located in different
portion of the town than where il is
at present. The only property that is
benefited by its proximity to pas
senger depot is a hotel, and l cannot
see why any person in Miles should
favor its removal to the foot of Main
street, the place mentioned by some
as being a very favorable location.
The people Of Miles no doubt appreci-
ate the building of this hotel, and by
moving the depot its value will be
much affected. There il no city or
town in the country that l know of
where the depot is located in a resi-
dence centre. They are all as near
the business.p portion as they can posi-
bly, be put. The present location in
this respect Is the most convenient to
the business centre. People arriving
on the trains want to go as short dis
lance as possible to hotel, and the
hotel by being close to the depot is an
advantage to those who are leaving
the city, if the train on which they
leave is somewhat late in arriving.
To build the depot at the foot of Main
street will not enhance the value of
the railway company's property one
farthing. No one wants TO live near
depot where there is a noise at all
hours of the night. And it would be
at least ten years before the business
portion of Miles City is built down
that far The business places located
here now are sufficient for the city for
some years to come, aud there Is no
one going to build in that direction
snould the depot be built there, and
abandon their present business places.
No, | think that Colonel Lamborn,
land commissioner of the Northern
Pacific railroad, will think the same
way and that the depot will be located
where il was.

thrill Is then given by an alarm of
fire, because there is no pressure or

The precious waters Of the reservoir
preside over cities with protecting in

Let the designer and builder of the
