A New Railway in Montana.

The completion of the Northern Pa
cific Ry., from White Hall, Mont, to
Twin Bridges, Mont, a distance of
twenty six miles, opens up to both the
miner aud farmer the limitless re-
sources of the famous Jefferson Valley.
rich both i'll the quantity and quality
of it's mineral deposits and in the fer
tility of its soil which for farming is
equal to any in Montana. The three
rivers which enter the valley separate
ly but unite before going very far, fur
nish an abundance of pure water for
all the present and future needs of the
valley.
Twin Bridges is situated i'll the north
western corner of Madison county at
the head of the beautiful jefferson
Valley. On either hand are mountain
ranges stretching away in the distance;
here the contentment and freedom of
the farmers life is contrasted with the
business activity of the miners voca-
ton; to the right the eye beholds herds
of cattle and horses grazing on grass
covered hills while zero and there tho
miLe r is hard at work extracting from
the earth its precious metals.
just mt present the mining industry
is most prominent gold being the
} principal metal taken from the ground,
but with the Northern Pacific COM
pleted and in operation to Twin Bridg-
es, the farmer and miner alike will
prosper beyond anything heretofore
possible.
To the owners of mines the railway
will be of inestimable value and the in
fluN of capital and consequent intro
duction of cheaper and more modern
mining methods, will be a Godsend to
numberles miners who have hundreds
of tons of low grade ore that could not
before be handled with profit owing to
the expense of hanling to the railway
by wagon.
AS u place of residence this valley
has found favor with many of Mon.
tana's prominent people and the num-
Der of pretty little towns with their
comfortable homes, scattered here and
there, bear evidence of its popularity.
