BARTLETT.


Octave Poissant is about leaving
on his annual visits to points south
and east, this time to Missouri and
Florida.
Mrs. Henry Oliver will leave for
Portage La Praine, Manitoba, this
week to visit relatives and will be
absent for several weeks.
Ed Fugulls has sold his 32O-acre
farm located two miles west of
here, the purchaser we understand
being Sidney st John, of Lakota,
through Mr.. Root, the land man.
j. M. Kennedy. the proprietor of
the city hotel, returned from a
visit to his former home in Illinois
where he had been called by the
death of his mother.
Miss Maud Paon, of Lakota,
was the guest of her sister, Mrs.
O.. Ingalls,, during the holidays
and took in the festivities of the
Observation-Disclosures wedding.
Father Mcdonald, the parish
priest, celebrated mass and gave a
learned and highly apperciative
sermon to a large congregation in
the Catholic church in this place
Sunday last.
The Maccabees of Bartlett Tent
No. 80 gave avery enjoyable dance
in their hall New Years night,
a large number of the young folks
Of Bartlett and vicinity being in
attendance.
The teachers in the city schools
Miss Georgina Cole and Miss
Matte Rose. are visiting relatives
and friends, the former in Mime
sofa and the latter in Mapes, this
state, where their parents reside.
Charles w. Schroeder sold his
32O-acre farm in Hope township,
this county, to A. j. Grouna, of
Lakota. Consideration, $2,5OO.OO.
Mr. Schroeder has bought out the
stock in trade of 0. D. Osteby of
this place and is now doing a gen.
eral merchandise business.
G. M. Doyon has bought the J.
A. McDougall residence in this
town and removed it to his farm
about 6 miles southwest of here.
We understand that Mr.. Doyon
will also remove his family from
Larimore, where they have been
staying, to his farm in the spring.
Misses Mabel and Laura and
Blanche Wolf were visiting their
parents on the Doyon farm during
the holidays. Miss Mabel is at
tending the state university, Miss
Laura is teaching in Michigan,
and Miss Blanche is attending the
high school at Lakota.
Much interest is being felt in
regard to the action the G.. N.
railway may take in the location
of a new depot at this point. The
largest majority Of the business
people are decidedly against remov-
ing it three miles west. So far as
it effects the farmers we cannot
see that it would effect the ship
ping of grain in the least. 1t GER
tainly would be a great hardship
on the part of the business people
who have buildingsto remove them
that distance, not taking into ac-
count the loss in trade while re-
moving and getting settled.
Married: By the Rev. S. A.
Whitford, of Lakota, N. D., at the
residence of the brides parents in
Bartlett on the 2Sth day of Dec
ember, 1899, Miss Agnes Fulton
to Nj. N. A. Hinebauch. The
bride is one of Ramsey county's
teachers and the bridegroom is a
prosperous and hustling farmer in
the vicinity of Bartlett. Both
parties are well and favorably
known. The ceremony was per
formed in the presence of a large
number of relatives and friends of
the contracting parties. The pres
ents were numerous and very
serviceable.

ject of general discussion in local rail-
way circles to-day.
The railway officials, without excep-

consider that it's accomplishment will be
difficult.
I'VE need a union passenger depot in

formed railroad man this morning. 1--WE
need 1t more than almost any city Of the
same size in the country. Our depots are
numerous, far apart and shabby. The
convenience that 1T We I'd be to ourselves
and the public is all the argument needed
in its favor. If we will all go to work on
this thing in earnest and a few will put
aside the idea of making a whole lot Of
money out of it, the project can be car
Iied through"
I'm my opinion there is Just one way to
do 1t. That is for a local company to
take the matter up, incorporate and go
ahead. A local company can get the
light of way at much less cost and much
When that Is done. when an organization
is effected, let these wealthy citizens
bear a rand. They can subscribe for so
much stock each and then put it up to
the railroads, get them to subscribe for
stock, and when thetdepot is built, assess
each railroad pro rata for m \ obtaining 1t.
The result will be that the companies can
enjoy a fine union depot M be under no

they are at present, while the depot COM

A NOVEL EXPERIMENT..
How the Short Line Will Improve Its
Roadbed.

The Oregon Short Lime is about to try
a very interesting experiment It's line
south from Ogden runs through a very
fertile country and one result of this is
that the roadbed, between ties and on the
sides of the grade, is covered with a
heavy growth of weeds and grass. The
section gangs put in about half their time
clearing away this growth, and now it
has been decided to try the effect of salt
water from the lake on it. This water
the shores of the lake is death to
all kinds of vegetation n it Is believed
that it will work just as effectively in the
road zee Tank cars with apparatus for
generous ~sprinkling, will run over the
line and soak the road bed with salt wa
ter and it is confidently expected that the
troublesome vegetation will disappear
under this treatment.
