In another column we publish an
item from Redwood Falls about the
Gulf & Manitoba railroad. That
line is working through from the Gulf
OF Mexico to the northern boundary,
and already has many miles of line
in Iowa and Missouri. There seems
to be an abundance of capital back
of it, and they reach such points al
have natural or are willing to make
special Inducements. From past
experience it is reasonable to suppose
that the old railroads in Northern
Minnesota will not invade each
Others territory vigorously, and the
only way to get railroad competi-
ton is to induce some independent
line to come in. The Gulf & Manito-
ba company seems to disregard
other roads interests, and have
reached into the territory of some OF
the strongest lines in Southern Min
nesota. We hope that the time will
come when Little Falls and Morrison
county can afford to enter into
negotiations with the Gulf &
Manitoba people.

A crew OF ten men under Asa
Porter left Wednesday night for
Crow Wing river. Those forming
the crew are Ed. Briggs, Minor Ray
mond, Lazime King, Olin Grey, Fred
Adams, Elmer Grassland, Chas Shea,
Ed. VanBuskirk. John Mcdonald
and Jason Knapp. They go to that
part of the state to do considerable
log driving for the Hennepin Paper
company. Their first drive will be
on Crow Wing river where they have
about 500 cords OF spruce to take
out. The logs on this river are very
scattering. They will take them, in
bulk, to the mouth OF the Crow Wing
river where they will be made into
RATS and brought down to this city.
The first drive is expected to reach
here In about three and a half weeks.
The crew will then return up river
and bring down other logs on Will
low Creek, Mud River and other trib-
utaries to the Mississippi. John
Mcdonald will cook for the party.

The new regiments will be different
from the volunteer regiments that
were organized during the war with
Spain in that they will have at their
head competent regular army officers
who know and will supply the
wants of the men. The government
has completed a most satisfactory
arrangement for securing rations
and fresh meat and army fare has
greatly improved. The physical
qualifications for applicants for ad-
mission to the volunteer regiments
allow a little more leeway than in
the regular army, although those
who are accepted must be in robust
health. A man is not required to be
a citizen, and although it is not
necessary that he can read and
write, he must be able to speak the
English language.
Arrangements have been made by
Capt. E. P. Andrus, who has charge
of the recruiting in the Northwest,
to visit towns where half a dozen or
more men are willing to enlist and If
upon examination they are found to
be fit for the army, he sends them to
one of the recruiting stations at
government expense; otherwise they
must pay their own way to the
nearest recruiting station.
AS the commanding officers OF
these volunteer regiments have au-
thority to organize the men into
companies, and in order to form
Minnesota companies in the 34th u.
s. Vol. Infantry, the men OF this
state should come forward prompt

N. p. Crop Report.


The following is from the Northern
Pacific crop report:
Little Falls & Dakota Branch
Wheat harvest will become general
in a few days, some having already
commenced cutting, and prospects
are considered good. Some damage
is reported from black rust in wheat
on sandy soil, but otherwise it is
said to have a heavy stand and
filled we'll. The yield will probably
equal that of last year, ranging
from fourteen to twenty -four bushels
per acre. Other small grains and
corn and potatoes are doing very
we'll. Farmers seem to have all the
help they need and are in shape to
take care of the crop and have it in
shock in short order.

Recruiting tor Uncle Sans
Volunteers.

Since recruiting for the new volun-
teer regiments has begun in St. Paul,
Minneapolis and Fargo, there has
been an unusual rush of applicants
largely on account Of the advant-
ages offered to the men who go to
the Philippines now, to serve in the
army until June 80, 1901. 1t is as
serted, on information based upon
war department investigation, that
the men who are on the field at that
time will have an opportunity for
investment that will not again be
offered in the history Of the islands.
Some of the men who are now being
enrolled are going largely for the
purpose OF getting in on the ground
floor when the business revival comes
with American rule.
Many who are unfamiliar with
army conditions have scOffed at the
idea that a soldier could save money
out of his pay, yet the majority OF
the men who are in the regular army
have managed to accumulate a bank
account in time of peace when their
pay was 5000 less per month than
it is now. The pay of a soldier is
better than that OF a farm hand.
He not only gets his hoard and
$3.50 per n.onth. INIT he gets ills
cl othes, and the allowance for that
is SO generous that few ever use it
up, getting the difference in cash
when they are mustered out Of the
service. The opportunity for spend
ing money in the Philippines is not
so plentiful as in this country and
many of the men now there are
keeping their pay intact. He can
deposit money with the paymaster
in sums not less than $500 per
month and draw interest at the
rate OF per cent until date Of dis
charge.
The pay of a private soldier for
wv y CtIl CilHouA 70 w PcS SAAAN
when mustered out he gets land
travel pay from the place of enlist
ment and free transportation by
water to American shores any time
within year after honorable dis
charge. Some OF those who have
figured the thing out have decided
that they can thus come out Of the
service with about $5O0.00, and this
they propose to invest in the Orient.
This sum would furnish q fair start
in business in this country where
competition is sharp, but it is be-
lleved that it can be much more adj
vantageously invested in the Philip
pines where the field is sti1 open.
At any rate there ore a great many
men who propose to try it and
should they fail, they still have al
