Frank Lynch, the Casselton machin-
cry merchant, is plating new townsites
along the line of the N. P. extension
southwest of Dickey. The new towns
in which Mr.. Lynch is interested are
Lucca, Wadeson and Catherine. The
first station on the line is Miriam and
is situated about nine miles east to
Dickey. On account of the country
being so rough the road between these
two points will not be finished this sea-
son, though it will be rushed in the
early spring.
Minot Optic: It is probable that
there will be a change made in the
boundary lines of this the 26th legis-
lative district, but in case no change
is effected it is almost certain that an
increase of representation will be
granted. 1t is confidently expected
that Mclean county will show a vote
this fall of 500, Wells 800 and Ward
1000. This would give the district
a voting credit of 1000 votes, which
would at least entitle it to two repre-.
sentatives and one state senator.
