The Mp. Wants the 500,

The latest rumor regarding the 500
line comes from Pierre. The Capital says
the Northern Pacific wants to use the
Duluth, Pierre, and Black Hills, and
that 1t has purchased the 500 road which
runs from st. Paul to Oakes, N. D. The
500 road has valuable terminal facilities
in Aberdeen. and the distance to Oakes
by the road is fully 100 miles shorter
than the Northern Pacific. The North
ern Pacific could have several objects in
view in buying the 500 line. In the first
place with their new line through Pierre
to Denver it would be big saving in
distance. Then again the 500 owns a
graded road bed from Aberdeen to Bis
marck and with the ironing of the road it
would give the Northern Pacific line
nearly 100 miles shorter on this road to
the Pacific coast. The Northern Pacific
now has more business than they can
handle over their line OF road
east of the Missouri and with this road
they could do the passenger business
over one line and the freight business
over the other.

jamestown and Stutsman county will
have received more money during the
year than any equal number of people IN
an equal area OF farming country, in the
world.
Stutsman county has only about one
eighteenth of her area under cultivation.
There are nearly 100000 acres Of farm.
ing and stock lands in the county. OF
these, by far the larger part, could be as
proftably cultivated as those acres which
have this year grown the above enormous
crop. Much of this vacant land is held
by syndicates, and in large individual
holdings, and most of it is on the
market at low prices. The North
ern Pacific railroad company and
the government still have unsold, IN the
county about 100000 acres.
There is no county in the state where
as cheap and desirable land, close to rail-
roads and markets can be obtained, as in
Stutsman. When this crop is taken off
there will ben steady rise in land values
here, if all signs do not fail.
