The public is giving up the little fad
periodicals. People soon tired of the silly
fellows and dropped them. The Chip Book
and the Fly By Night and the others were
all run by young people who couldn't get
their writings accepted by regular maga-
zines, and didn't mind paying the small
amount printers charged them for maya
zines OF their own, A very passable maga-
zinelet can be turned out for $50 per
1000. Three or four litterateurs with
the accent on the last syllabiel even three
or four hungry litterateurs, can get this
amount together once a month for two or
three months without much stress. But
it became tjresome. And now when the
public won't even buy an edition of 900
copies most of them are falling by the
wayside. Very soon there will be need
of another fad for the unoccupied,-

The Fish Trap bridge was washed
away this spring and Cavalier county
commissioners refuse to rebuild it. 1t
looks little as though Langdon was
afraid some Cavalier county wheat might
come this way this fall when the rails are
laid, and our neighbors on the mountain
are red-hot about it. Such bridge will
be great accommodation to large ex-
tent of country and is the only feasible
crossing for many miles, owing to the
roughness of that mountainous section.
Work on the new railroad has begun
in earnest and there are now at least $50
men at work at different points between
here and Cavalier. The road as being
graded is almost an air line from. Caval-
Ter, distance of seventeen miles without
a curve. Sixty-fve men began work at
Walhalla just across the river on Mon
day. The road will gross the river Just
below the present wagon bridge, and
will be seven or eight feet higher. The
depot is expected to be a little north of
east of the school house, and the round
house and elevators across the grade on
the Horning property.
