Townsites on the N. P. Extension

It would seem from hearing
some people talk that the object of
the Northern Pacific Ry. Co. is to
build up some towns on their lines
at the expense Of others. But to a
careful observer of the policy that
is being pursued on other roads
that are building this season such
is not the case. Railroads are now
striving more than heretofore to
place their towns at such a distance
from each other as to make each
point a thriving place. The cost
of building and maintaining a de-
pot every few miles has been de-
bated recently among N. P. Off
cials and they may adopt the rule
of the G. N. and build no depots
within II miles of each other.
If the report be true that but
three depots will be built between
here and the Missouri river, and
no plausible rumor has been
broached to the contrary, then it
is reasonable to presume that each
new town will be quite prosperous.
This country cannot support towns
within six or eight miles of. each
other as all know who are acquaint-
ed with the towns between here
and Carringtcn-Goodrich being
the only really good business point
intervening. Heretofore, Denhoff
has had all the business for twenty
miles west and still the business
men have been able to take care of
the trade, and even with the heal
thy immigration and-the increased
acreage since last year it is pre-
sumptious to think that another
depot will be built nearer than IL
or possibly 10 miles at the least
'fsom here. While this paper has
had no definite information, Il
