Henry Eastbreger passed
through the city this morning on
mis- return to his home in Indiana.
He spent several days quietly
looking over North Dakota lands.

with one Of the big farms in

: VI OlluSCeau Incorporated as a
part of Egeland.
The law on the point is not
well settled as to whether such
an incorporation can be legally
made. The Northern Invest
ment Company and the residents
Of Olmstead employed Edward
F. Flynn as their attorney, while
Brooke & Kehoe and other Cando
attorneys acted for the Egeland
contingent. Mr.. Dennis Kelly
of this city, presented the Ohm
stead objections and petition that
the motion of the Egeland fac
ton be denied and after a very
hard fight on the part of both
sides, the Egeland people who
were confident of winning, had
their petition denied. This is
an important victory for the
Olmstead people. ~..
