Senator J. Austan Regan is the prin-
cipal man in the townsite, having Sc
cured the land from the state institu-
ton land. This townsite is well To-

country around it will be speedily set
tied. The name of the new town has
not yet been decided upon but we
suggest Regan City in honor of the
wide-a-wake senator from Wells coun-
ty. It is not known just where other
towns along the line will be located
as the final surveys of the road have
not yet been completed. There will
be several good towns on this extern
sion and the additional railroad mile
age means much to Mclean county
and to the settlers who are thus placed
in touch with the markets of the
world
