By the Omaha Road are Con.
? templated. ..

Thursday night q couple of civil
engineers of the Omaha road were
here examining the grounds about the
round house, built last summer, get
ting plans and other information.
This is the second visit these Off
cials have made for this purpose. It
has ben found that the present
round house facilities are not ade-
quate for the accommodation of all
the e:gines that are tied up here and
it is supposed that these Investigations
are for the purpose. of making plans
for building an extension to the pre-
sent house in thespring. Should this
be done it indicates that the railroad
expect more train and engine men
will make this point their head
quarters Should this come true,
what are railrosd men going to do for
houses to reside in. There is net an
empty house or an available room in
town, nor has there been for any
length of time for several years. The
enlargement and progress of Worth
ington is being retarded on account
of living quarters. Few people can
move into a town, buy or build a
house when it is uncertain as their
permancy,whether they are employed
or engaged in business. There is but
one solution, some one must build
some houses, aud this must be done
by those who have the means. The
persons having the means now have
a great opportunity to enlarge Wor.
thington, increase is valuation and
prospects, pushing its development
far in advance of any town this part
of Minnesota or northern Iowa.
