Prosperity Is Here.

Prosperity Is Here.
Anyone who dOu BITS it can be convinced by
visiting any of the towns in western Iowa or
Minnesota on the new lines of the Chicago &
Northwestern Railway.
People in the immediate vicinity of these
towns are quick to see the advantage and are
already in advance of the railroad, building
stores, residences. elevators, lumber ofdces,
ETC.. etc, but there is room for more. The
country is splendid. and will in all cases
amply support all lines of business and trade,
and in the most of the towns the best l0ca-
lions are still open.
Lots in any Of these towns cannot help but
be safe and paying investments, as they are
stillon the market at the original low prices.

Pu1lman-Connel1. Cutoff.

Indications point more and more
favorably toward the immediate
building of the Pullman Cornell
cutoff, the right-of-way agent still
being here, and yesterday a num-
Der of deals were closed up, and the
cash paid for the strip of land over
which the road is to run. The Ia
coma Ledger of Thursday says that
it is probable the cut off will be
built as soon as the necessary right
of way and engineers estimates are
ready. The Ledger further says:
1t is semi-officially announced
in connection with the building OF
the Connell cut-og that the proposed
extension down the Snake river in
to Pasco will not be built for sew
eral years, if at all In this con-
nection a prominent railroad Off
cial said yesterday: when the
Northern Pacific was originally
constructed a mistake was made in
building from Pasco through a des-
ert country to Spokane. The road
should have been build farther
south and caught all the rich coun-
try south of the Snake river in the
Palouse country. The line ought
to have followed the line of the
Hunt road into Walla Walla.
:" 1T is not probable now that the
Pasco cut off will be constructed
for several years. This is a most
difficult and costly piece of work,
though it is probable some day the
Northern Pacific will build in that
direction. The Snake river is in a
deep gorge and construction there
is expensive. With the Connsll
cutoff the saving in expense and
