HARVEST FOR HOTEL MEN.
Storm Holds Travellers in the Big
Cities

S1IleS.
The only effect of the storm on the hotel
business was to keep some people in Mime
apolis who had intended starting out on the
road. and who were not sure that the worst
was over. Of course the delayed trains had
their effect in making the number of belated
travellers unusually large, but last night the
registers at the hotels were filled, and it
looked as If everyone who had intended reach
ing Minneapolis arrived.
Several travelling men had hard-luck sto-
ries to tell about being snow bound, especial
ly those on the Hastings G Dakota train,
which was due yesterday morning and did
not arrive until last night. One of the pas
sengers on this train was r. ]. Marin, of Wi
mona. He woke Up at o'clock yesterday
morning to take the train, and arrived at
the Nicollet house between and 10 o'clock
last night. He thought 1t was about as near
being snow-bound as he cared to be- He
only came distance that would require an
hour and a half ride ordinarily, but the snow
was so deep, and blew on the tracks so bad
ly, that the train simply crawled along
Freights were in the way, and there were
tie-ups at several places. He was glad in
deed, to reach Minneapolis, although he had
been almost within hailing distance of it all
the time.

FARMERS IN EARNEST.
The Hines Road Is Certain to BE
Built.

built.
George M. Esterly of Bathgate, N. D., is
in the city on business trip. Mr.. Esterly is
enthusiastic over the project of the farmers
railroad, known as the Hines road" which
is being built from Drayton to connect with
the Duluth and Winnipeg.
1.-The farmers are doing all the grading
work themselves" said Mr. Esterly yesterday,
land they take their payment in stock. D. w.
Hines is president of the organization and is
one of the most persistent men l ever knew.
People laughed at his scheme of a farmers
railroad when he first suggested 1t, but they
are not laughing now-they are working on
the road. The line will cut 100 miles off the
route to Duluth from North Dakota. The
farmers want the road because they are so
crsmped for sufficient freight accommoda-
tions during the harvest season. The present
freight facilities offered by the roads are alb
surdly inadequate at that time of year, and
the farmers are disguised at the difficulty they
have in moving their wheat.
"You see the wheat farmers haven't much
to occupy their time except during the plant
ing and harvesting season, and they can con-
veniently put 1t in on the railroad. The whole
line has been surveyed, and much of the grad
ing has already been done. The farmers pre-
pared $4,000 ties during the winter just past
and are working like beavers. tell you the
meetings which they have concerning that
railroad are as lively as a Populist caucus.
1t is figured that the road can be equipped
and ironed for $4,000 mile, and the manage
ment has already received an offer from me
Eastern financial company to bond the road
for S., 900 mile. This will give So, 900 mile
clear for operating expenses. Of course, the
equipment and ironing will be second-class to
start with, but this is plenty good enough for
the purposes for which the road is intended
that of taking care of the wheat when it should
be taken care Of
But will the new road be able to make
traffic agreement with the Duluth and Win
nipeg?'' was asked.
''Well, that is a question. President Hill
couldn't do it, you know. But if it can't be
done, it is the plan to parallel the length of
the Duluth and Winnipeg. The farmers are
going to have that railroad or know the rea-

ALL WE'RE TAGGED.
Minneapolis Aldermen Can Be EX-
pected to Arrive Home Safely.

The aldermanic junket party which includes
the mayor, is experiencing much the same
delight that has come to loyal Mianeapolitans
at home this week. In letter home, Mayor
Pratt writes that in Selkirk the party made
its way to the eating house through snow
path two feet wide, piled ten feet high on
each side. The next day the aldermen were
picking flowers in New Whatcom. In Seattle
the mayor was variously interviewed on what
he thought of Seattle; how he left Minneapo-
lis; what was his opinion of the presidential
campaign. One of the papers announced
1.-TWO notable arrivals, John l.. Sullivan and
Mayor Pratt Of Minneapolis whereat John
L. remarked that he did not remember Mayor
Pratt. He knew DR.. Ames, though, who set
his arm the night the crowd howled outside
the Washington rink, and thought it was all
hoax that Sullivan had broken his arm.
The Minneapolis party is having the best
sort of a time according to all accounts, and
every precaution has been taken to insure it's
safe return when the junket shall have been
concluded. Each man is adorned with tag,
which gives explicit directions as to the dis
posal of his effects, in case he should be-
come separated from his companions and lost.
The tag is like in shape to an express tag,
and reads follows, in good, black type:
