Sioux Falls, s. D., Nov. 28.-It was
expected that the town Of Tabor would
be the chief beneficiary Of the Mil
waukee railroad extension into Charles
Mix county, but it is now stated that
the railroad company will locate its
depot one mile west Of that place. If
this proves true it will work consider
able inconvenience to the residents, as
it would virtually compel them to
move their buildings and other prop.
erty to the railroad, otherwise a new
town would naturally spring up
around the railroad depot and utterly
ruin the present town Of Tabor.
