blowing in right direction for residents

Those who have read Mr.. Hills address
before the grain growers convention at
Crookston last fall, find considerable
comfort for their almost forlorn hopes in
a "promise" which the magnats threw
out off-hand on that occasion. He said:
"The Edmore branch will be extended
to Hampton, distance of forty-five
miles, Now Hampden is distant from
Edmore only twelve miles, while the
length of the present survey from Ed
more to Antwerp is forty-tive miles
Now comes John Evans of Ellison, with
a letter from F. E. Ward, one of the
chief moguls of the system, in which
that diplomatic gentleman makes the
discreet assertion that the Edmore line
will be extended next spring. far
he does not say. Those railroad men
have an aggravating way of keeping an
anxious public guessing.-Cando Demo
