The greatest interest centers about the
probable location Of the new - town on the
Mankato- Pennington branch Of the milwaukee,
railroad. The passing Of the main line, half
a mile from this city, seems sufficient evil
dence that the Mankato- Pennington extension
will do it's best to control the Montgomery
trade, by locating new town "a few miles
east. The company has taken option on
large strip of land, belonging to A. J. Skluz-
acek, about mile from the village Of Wheat
land and probably the station of the new
town will be located there: The new village
will be four miles from Montgomery and
about ten miles from New Prague: 1t. is ex-
pected the village Of Wheatland will die nat
ural death, while the business men of Wese-
" a town midway between New Prague and
the new railroad, making preparations to
decamp. An important village will be located
not far from Northfeld and encroach mate
rally upon the trade of the latter. The new
line passes through some of the wealthiest
land Of the state, and satisfactory returns are
expected from the start.

had their candidates nominated and placed

ticket agreed on by the opposition did not
