Engineer Jones. This plan provided
for three reservoirs at BibStone Lake,

work as outlined in this report would
cost in the neighborhood of from $780,

DON'T AFFECT THE WASHBURN
ROAD.

A jamestown special to the Mime,
apolis Journal says that there will not
be much railroad building in North
Dakota this year-both the Northern
Pacific and the 500 having agreed not
to extend any more branch lines this
year-and gives as the chief reason
the extra cost Of steel rails and other
material entering into the construc-
ton of the road. So far so good. But
the article goes on further to say that
"the Washburn road is likely to be
sold either to the 500 or the Northern
Pacific, but not this year."
The latter statement is entirely
without foundation. The Tribune has
it from the most trustworthy authority
that nothing of the kind ia contem-
plated by General Washburn. He will
not sell his road to any company. He
will build and equip it this year. He
will operate it Independent of any
other road. He will connect at Bis
marck with any and all roads that
build to this city. The 500 has been
headed off this season from building

The Minneapolis Tribune has it from
what it considers a reliable source
that Congressman Spalding is to be re-
turned to congress this fall. North
Dakota now has the only harmonious
delegation since statehood and being
made of the right stuff there ought to
be no serious opposition to their reten-
ton. 1t must be expected that the
delegation will not always agree upon
every proposition-that would not be
human nature-but that they will be
together generally on all great issues
of state and national interest may be
expected, and that their difference on
minor local matters will be good ma
tured and productive Of no discord or
jealousies is to be inferred by the
good common sense that each of the
delegation is known to possess.

Publishers receive a special fiat rate
on books to any part of the United
States, which accounts for the fact
that where the expressage is paid in
advance, on such books as the North
Dakota code, for instance, the amount
in some instances is less than half the
cost of sending the book collect at the
point of destination. That's the
reason purchasers Of the new North
