Spurred by the announcement in a
recent issue of Emmons County Ad-
vocate of the things Charley Patter-
son intends to do for Linton and Eul-
mons county, Editor Streeter of tie
Emmons County Record marks on. a
plan of campaign as follows:
We, too. intend to make vast i'm
provements in the spring; but until
We saw Cherley's puff of himself in
his paper. our natural difidence and
constitutional mOdesty led us to re
frain from giving in IL paper an ut
line of the immense undertakings we
have in contemplation. But. now
that the precedent has been estab
lished that good taste allows a pub
Usher to advertise his own enterprise
through the columns of his W sheet,
we avail ourselves of the opportunity.
Following is a list of a few of the
many improvements that we contem-
plate making when the spring-time
comes. gentle Annie:
We shall establish a line of steam
ers on Beaver river between Linton
and EmmOnsburg. Except Herolz's
dam, there is NO serious impeachment
to navigation. and a short portage can
be made around that. We have Con
tracted' with Bart Lee, Ben Johnson
and some of their neighbors to supply
the line with a continuous ~freightage
of fish and turtles during the season
of navigation. Too long the peNrle
of the interior Of this country have
matter of brain food with these per
sons who reside near lower Beaver and
along the Missouri. Fresh cargoes of
catfish and mud-turtles will be trans
ported to Linton daily by our steam
ers, and from this point shipped 10
towns in the country north, east and
south. Thus, through our unselfsh
efforts. Linton will become a great
distributing point. Besides, the large
amoun of bait required will give re-
munerative employment digging
grub-worms, capturing grasshoppers
and catching ull-frogs to the women
and children who reside contiguous to
the great fisheries which will be estab
lished at the mouth of beayer.
In the spring, too whatever may
re the expense, we sna;. have the
windows of the Recori oTc, carefully
washed.
We shall build a marble block for
business purposes il Linton next
spring. We shall also complete Tie
construction of Mr.. Morrow's twenty
thousand dollar hotel, the lots on
which it stands and all equities in the
work so far done on the building hav-
ing beer purchased by us.
We shall about Jan. |, when the
frost will probably be out of the
ground. build a trolly line from Lin
ton 20 B%raddock. The line viii also
be built from Braddock to Linton.
We shall, too, next year, a, soon as
the winter ozone in the atmosphere
grows less in volume and asperlty. lay
the track for a line of Gyin% machines
between Lipton and Hazelton. In
case of damage to the machinery, the
motive power of the aerial cars will
be large focks of Wild geese that have
been carefully broken To harness.
We shall also have the Office floor
scrubbed. mex spring
We have purchased the Fargo 70
rum. the Grand Forks Herald and the
! Bismarck Tribune. They will be
! brought to Linton and consolidated
with the Record.
We have bought Dan Patch, Ores
ceus, Lou Dillon, Major Delmar and
Prince Alert. They will be here next

for speeding purposes.
The N. p. depot at Bismarck is now
our property. 1t will be moved to
Linton and rearranged as a stable
The entire upper story will be CON
verified into two separate, isolated
suites of rooms, furnished with Brus-
sells carpets, rosewood piano and ma
hogany furniture-one suite of rooms
for the hired man and the other for
the hired girl.
We have employed Gov. White and ,
Lieut.. Gov. Bartlett to come here and
take care of our horses. These gen
tlemen will soon resign to accept their
new positions. While, of course, mere
honor is a desirable and satisfying
thing in some respects, yet neither OF
tho pantlemen named is wealthy. and
