Jamestown Alert: The project of a
north and south road, from North Dakota
to the gulf, is beginning to assume shape.
Last week Samuel Leland, who will be
assistant engineer in charge of the work,
arrived in the city and is now making
preparations and otherwise preparing for
the coming of George Hawkins, engineer
in charge. The idea is to make a recon
Nuisance or preliminary survey of a
feasible route, due south from this city
which will be for the present the northern
terminal. From this city the line will run
due south to a point on the Missouri river,
through Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and
Texas, to some southern terminal yet to
be decided upon. The route is not yet
definitely made public, but the course
will be generally outlined. The party
will consist of about five men and it is
understood that the 1000 mile trip will
be made in light marching order, with
but very little baggage or equipments.
A solar compass will be used for align
ment and a barometer for attitudes, A
900 foot steel tape with spring tension
ends will be used for measuring distance.
Engineer Hawkins is expected on the 23d
inst. The work will not be completed
until some time in October or November.
Headq uarters will probably be in Omaha.
The. above is of special interest to resi-
dents Of Bottineau and Rolette counties,
in view of the fact that less than a humid
red miles of new road from Leeds north
would give US a direct line to jamestown
and thence to the Gulf-in case the pro.
posed north and south road is ever built.
A united effort should surely be made tc
attain this most desirable end, even should
the Gulf line never m~aterialize. Com
bination-is all that IS needed. Bottineau,
Dunseith and the interested farmers
could build the line would they but unite
