Aberdeen American.
@. B. Foncanon OF Eureka, was stop
ping in this city yesterday, having run
down from his home town for the pur-
pose of attending to few business mat
ters he had on hand. He reports that
the threshing season has started in Me-
Pherson county and the present indica-
tions are that the yield will be wonder
full one, even etter than it has been
during the best of the preceding years.
He could not say accurately what the
yield would be, as not enough has been
threshed to give person good idea Of
what the average will be. The farmers
in his vicinity are all feeling happy and
confident OF good times. Mcpherson
county has been fortunate this year in
escaping hail, black rust and smut, and
the crop will be as perfect as IL will qe
for ang crop to be.

A. f. LeJiaire, special townsite agent
of the Milwaukee railroad, came here TO
day and left again for the south. He
will make trip over the roads Cham
berlain-Rapid City extension in com
panY with surveyor and complete the
preliminary work in connection with
placing some of the new town plats on
the market.
Reports from the north and west give
the details of two important coups scor-
ed by the Milwaukee, both of which
were necessary in the carrying 10 COM
pletion the different extensions 1t had
planned.
Railroad officials state that the Mil
waukee has made deal with the North
ern Pacific whereby II will obtain pos
session of the Linton branch of the latter
road and so secure its long coveted en-
trance into Bismarck. This will give
the Milwaukee direct line from Aber-
deen to the North Dakota capital and
open to the line territory IL has been
trying to invade for long time.
In the roads coast extension, a strong
fight developed to keep IL out OF Seattle.
The Milwaukee proposed to enter that
city by way Of the Cedar River and thru
the city water shed. The opposition
has collapsed, however, by an official an
nouncement from the King County Med
ical Society that the decision OF three
experts would be accepted. This de-
cision was to the effect that the railroad
would not contami nate the city water
supply. either during construction or
Operation. It repo rted that the op-
position to the Milwaukee was inspired
by rival lines.
