RAILROADS

GREAT NORTHERN EXTENSION TO

Special to The Journal.
Crookston, MINI, Sept. Cot is pos

bush extension may go thru to the Ca

der way north of Greenbush is being
pushed ahead SO rapidly and progress
is so speedy On the twenty-five mile
extension to Roseau, that it is believed
the contractors will have time to reach
Warroad before the f~reeze-up.

it will mean much to the north border

Charles Vine, meat contractor for the

this fall, despite the fact that official

ROADS PARALLEL
But Milwaukee's New Line Won't Kill
Off Independent.
Specisl to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Sioux Falls, S. D., Sept. 20.-''This
extension of the Milwaukee road will
not harm Sioux Falls. Neither do I
think it will do much harm to the South
Dakota Central. While the two roads
parallel for some distance, the fact that
the South Dakota Central has gone on
north will give it plenty Of business.
But the Milwaukee means to complete
and operate the cutoff just the same"
So says J.. D. Mcdonald, who has just
been awarded the contract for ten miles
OF grading on the extension of the Mil
waukee railroad from Madison to SIOUX
Falls. The South Dakota Central is
the independent road which was con-
structed last year from Sioux Falls to
Cotton, and which is now being ex-
tended northwestward from Cotton.
Tt had been rumored that the purpose
of the Milwaukee road in constructing
the new line from Madison to Sioux
Falls was with the object of "killing
| off, the independent road. 4
It had been supposed that the new
| line of the Milwaukee would not form a
junction with the main line until Sioux
| Falls was reached, but according to
| Contractor Mcdonald the company has
ner. six miles north Of Sioux Falls.
