The Northern Pacific-or, rather, the
Missouri River r. r. Co.--has filed its
location maps at the agency office.
These show that the extension from
Mandan will be run to Antelope creek
which is about mile below the agency.
We will be perfectly satisfied, however,
If they only run it to point opposite
the agency. The general opinion is thai
construction work will be commenced
in the spring. No doubt those ord In.
dian fighters will turn restlessiy in their
graves when they hear the first terrfy-
ing shrek of "Old Scrap.Iron Bill's''
whistle, as he rounds the curve above
the grave yard.
The ferryboat at this joint has been
allowed to sink, and as a consequence
no teams will be able to cross for some
time. 1t will mean loss of great
amount Of business TO both sides of the
river, as well as to the parties who own
the boat. A sand bar having formed in
in the middle If the. river at Vanderbilt
that excellent ferry has also been put
out Of commission. About the only way
one can cross the river-from the east
side. in particulars to do as Mr.. Pep
per did some years back when he start
ed for the Pacific coast country. The
ferry was not in operation; so Mr.. p,
growing tired of waiting, started up the
east side Of the river and ''followed 1t
around. He probably did not lose
much time by this original idea.
