Park Rapids Enterprise: Northern
Pacific railway surveyors are at work
over east Of Long Lake. They are rum
ming q survey from Staples Mills-a
continuation Of the branch line which
is now being built from Little Falls to
Staples. tt seems to be the intention Of
the company, and certainly is the ex-
pectation of the people; to extend the
line through this part of the country to
Red Lake Falls and beyond. As we
understand it, the surveyors are work
ing toward Park Rapids. "Barkis is
willin" the Northern Pacific should
build a line through here--quite willing.
We will offer no objection if half doz-
en- railway systems choose to meander
through the town; it would not incon-
vcnience us half as much rs it does to
| be so far from one. .

Owing to the crowded condition OF
the logs in the river ut this place for
the past week the Little Falls Lumber
Co. were able to get but i few OF the
Clarke logs into their booms. The cur
rent was slow and the river was filled
from shore to shore, and sorting was
almost impossible.

A citizens meeting was held last
l5eyening at orion 8 bank for the purpose
Of taking steps in the matter Of secur-
ing the building Of the Little Falls and
Dakota extension from Morris to Orion
Iville. Although but short notice had
been given, the meeting was largely at
tender, and there seemed to be no d.
vision upon the question, but all wanted
the road to Ortonyille and expressed
themselves anxious to work to that end.
Upon motion Richard Norrish was
chosen chairman OF the meeting.
Judge Bennett, of Big Stone City, was
present, and lie was called upon to
state what intelligence lie had upon the
subject. He said in substance "The
reasons why we in Dakota are so anx-
ieus to get the road built now is that the
Sioux Falls constitution will be voted
upon and adopted in October and that
document prohibits the voting of bonds
thereafter for any and all railroad aid in
Dakota. Last winter law was passed
at Bismarck which empo any mu-
nicipality in the territory to vote 3 per
cent on all taxable property for railroad
aid and we want to take advantage Of it
now. The people at Huron have for
years been corresponding with the
Northern Pacific OH this subject, and a
month ago they received a communica-
ton from Mr.. Cakes, president of the
N. F., that if the 3 per cent WAS voted
throughout where the road was to pass,
he would see that it was built to Huron
and possibly to Chamberlain. The total
amount Of these bonds would be about
$500, $50. / was at Morris as one of the
committee appointed by Big Stone City
and Milkank and we had rousing
meeting. Morris people at first appear
ed opposed to the extension but after
it was explained to them they I'LL
agreed that the extension would be of
more benefit than harm and will work
to get the road built. The people
between here and Morris are all in
favor of the road. Mr.. Cooper and all
in bis nelghborhood are anxious for the
road
Mr.. Bennett also produced a letter
from John N. Berg, town site proprietor
at Artichoke, stating that the town
needs the road very much and they will
surely vote bonus for its construction.
On motion committee consisting of
County Attorney Crawford and Pro-
fessor Varney were chosen to draft
resolutions expressing the desire of the
meeting to have the road built to Orion
vile and assuring all aid practicable and
consistent.
