The Duluth & Winnipeg R. r. is
completed to Grand Rapids in MINI.
1t is said that the company intend
building line from that point south
west around the southern shore of
Leach Lake, thence west through the
timber belt Of Minn., and the wheat
regions of North Dakota. Mr.. T. G..
Anderson points out the feasibility
OF liae entering the state east Of
Hillsboro and continuing west until
It strikes that town, then following
7he Goose river to Mayville, Portland
shence west through Steele, Griggs,
Foster, Wells and McLain counties
to Washburn or Stanton on the Mis-
souri river. Such line would, with
little variation, take in six county
seats and pass throught the very best
wheat producing and grazing portion
Of the state. Mr.. Anderson suggests
that it might be we'll for the citizens
in the county seats and other towns
along such proposed route to organ
ize and cooperate in an effort to
secure such road.-Steele Co. Tri-
bune.

Being Named by Some One Else" Iimri
Dwiggins is one OF these His name is
enough to give one cold chills, and without
question it has worked injury to him and
his business. Who could grasp the hand
of Iimn Dwiggins in fellowship and who
receive his card without misgivings as TO
the cut of his coat and his whiskers2 Then
there is Malachi Hogan, and finally there is
Hon. Willie Augustus Hutchings, the cleo.
ton commissioner Mr. Hutohings is fire.
Quently called Gus and never VIII or Billy.
but nearly every one supposes his first name
is William. This Is an error lie Is called
after.a relative whose surname was Willie.
Mr. Hutchings got the name at an age
when il fitted him. but at the present time,
when he weighs 800 pounds, wears dia-
monds as big as ink bottles and is as dig
nifed as judge the name has become irk-
some. He tries to conceal IL by signing
