''As to just what month rails will be
laid into Great Falls / have no means
of knowing, but understand the main
line between the Missouri river and
Butte is to be completed before jan
uary l, 1908. Just how the branch lines
will run I cannot say, but the manage
ment of the road is thoroughly inves-
tigating every route suggested, and
the grade will be less than one per
cent during the course of the whole
line, with the exception of the Butte

THE heaviest grade will be between
ST. Paul and Aberdeen when the road
Is complete and the company will then
have a system comprising nearly TO-

The Great Northern Will Have Fully Five Thousand Men Work On the
Branch Which Being Built Across the Country From Billings
to Great Falls.
DIRT NOW FLYING ALL ALONG THE ROUTE OF new ROAD
Eight Outfits Busy Tearing Up the Earth and Preparing For the Laying
Rai's--Grea Difficulty in Keeping MenW|I Handle the Grain
Crop of 1907

A gentleman who is prominently con-
nected with the work of building the
line of railroad from the terminus Of
the Burlington at Billings to connect
Falls was in the city last week and
talked entertainingly to the Democrat
concerning the progress which is being
made by the contractors who are con-
structing the grade for the road. He
had just got in from trip over the
right-of-way and says that but for
great shortage of men, the most satis-
factory work would now be in pro-
gress.
"You may say that dirt is literally
flying all along the line" said the gen.
tleman Sunday morning "There are
not less than eight big outfits working
on the road. and just as soon as the
harvesting season is past and we can
secure all the men we need and want
there will be no less than five thous-
and labOrerS on the WOrkS.
eve are being seriously handicap
ped Just now on account of shortage
of laborers. Several Of the big con-
tractors have agents all over the coun-
try picking up men and sending them
to Montana by the carloads, but not
more than one in five actually gets to
work on the railroad in Fergus county.
Many Of them have no intention OF
working when they are started, simply
desiring a cheap way Of getting into
the country, while others really intend
to do railroad work jump their jobs
as soon as they get out here and are
offered a little better money for few
days in the hay or grain fields. One
contractor has brought several car
loads of laborers into Fergus county
only to lose large percentage of them
before or Immediately after they ar
rive at their destination.
There are now, or will be just as
soon as the various crews are filled out
i something like five thousand men
working on the Billings Northern line
At Armington, Lice has 10-mile con-
tract. He is working about 200 men
and making good progress.
Cash Bros. has a contract for the
road from Otter creek to Surprise
creek. They have about completed
their work around Spion Kopp and
Geyser. They have 1900 men on Their
payroll.
"Donald Grant and brother have the
contract for piece of road extending
from Surprise creek to the Louise creek
bench. These contractors have some
exceedingly heavy work which includes
one 2,0O0-foot tunnel at Surprise creek
and another of the same length at Will
low creek. This tunnel will be done
with steam shovels, two of which have
been between Moore and Willow creek
/ for two months. They are very heavy
and cumbersome pieces of machinery
and in order to move them across
country. a track has to be constructed
II takes time to build special track

sarily been exceedingly slow. Bu
when the big shovels are at the place
of operation, they are mighty factors
