Brookings dispatch, 10: The survey
ors of the South Dakota Central rail
road, that now extends from Sioux
Falls to Cotton. have been at work a
few miles southwest of this place. The
indications are that the road will be
pushed north this season, although
many doubt if it will go further north
than Madison before snow flies again.
The greatest interest is centered in the
talk about the point where the new
road will strike the Northwestern. 1t
is predicted that when the crossing is
made, it will reveal whatever backing
the South Dakota Central may have
from bigger roads and which is now
unknown.
