More Railroad Projects.

The recent issue by several Of the great rail-
road corporations Of large blocks of bonds, to
be used for construction purposes, coupled with
the facts that material Of all kinds is very
cheap and labor plentiful, has given rise in
well Informed railroad circles to the opinion
that the coming summer is to witness great ac-
tiyity in railroad building in the Northwest
especially in Dakota. 1t is no secret that two,
at least Of the great corporations that have
recently issued these bonds--the Milwaukee &
st. Paul and the Rock Islam 1-have for some
time been casting covetous eyes on the rich do
main now exclusively in the hands of the
Manitoba and Northern Pacific. The purchase
last year by the Milwaukee road of the Fargo
& Southern, and later its purchase of the fran
chise Of the Dakota & Great Southern, grading
on which is now being done north and south
OF Britton, are of themselves facts of sufficient
significance to warrant the conclusion that
the Milwaukee people intend to penetrate
Into the country north Of the line of the North
ern Pacific railroad. In this connection two
new companies which have recently been
formed, ono at Fargo, called the Fargo &
ing northwest from that city, for the purpose
of promoting the jobbing trade of Fargo, and
the other at Tower City, to be called the Da-
keta Il Western, with the intention of building
north to Hope and then branching northeast
erly to Grand Forks and northwesterly to the
Missouri river, are shrewdly suspected to be
schemes ultimately intended to fall into the
hands of the Milwaukee road when the proper
time arrives. No one supposes for moment
that gentlemen as sagacious rs those whose
names are connected with these two enter
prises would for moment think of encounter
ing single-handed snch huge and wealthy
corporation as the Manitoba. Nor does any
reason exist why if the Milwaukee road should
build to Tower City it should stop there, when
there lies such an Inviting field north of that
point.
We do not wish to arouse hopes that may he
doomed to disappointment, but it does seem to
us that the time is near at hand when import
ant railroad enterprises and extensions tha,
cannot fail to materially and favorably affec
Hope and the surrounding country are about
to be realized. The building of one or both Of
these lines would give us better facilities of con-
munication and douctless better rates of freigh
than we now enjoy, and could not help but ado

A Substitute for sugar from Coal Tar.
Mr.. Ivan Levinstein, the President of the
Manchester Section Of the Society Of Chemical
Industry, calls attention to new substance
which is extracted from coal tar, and possesses
sweetening properties far stronger than the
best cane or beat root sugar. This substance,
he said, seemed likely to enter into daily con-
sumption. According to Mr.. Levinstein, 1part
of it will give very sweet taste to 10000 parts
Of water, for it is 2SO times sweeter than best
sugar, and taken in the quantities added to
food as sweeting material, has no injurious ef-
fects whatever on the human system. Patients
suffering from diabetes have been treated for
the last few months in one of the principal
hospitals in Berlin with saccharin without
feeling in the least inconvenienced by its use.
The use Of saccharin would, therefore. Mr..
Levinstein said, be not merely probable sub.
stitute for sugar, but it might even be applied
to medicinal purposes where sugar was moi
permissible.
