and the Bayview House conducted by
Enos Jones near Cove, are crowded
with surveyors and other advance
couriers of the new railroad ard ex.
citement at the lake is quite intense
over the bright prospects. Real estate
values are beginning to look up al
ready, and with the certainty of a
railroad the lake country is bound to
boom, and increase by the thousands
in population during the coming year.
Good towns will spring up at Cove,
Lawrence, Isle and Vineland, where
the chief harbors on the south and
east shores of the lake are located. and
Mile Laos county will double in
wealth and population.
The exact route of the new survey i
unknown but it is quite sure to strike
the south shores of the lake. It may
diverge far enough to strike Page, or
a branch may pass south through Page
and Mi]aca to give an outlet to the
twin cities. Whatever the outcome, it
is quite certain that the building OF
the road through the lake country will
at once cause other lines to get into
the game.

Cove Pioneer: That the 500 rail-
way company will construct q line
from Glenwood or Brooten to the head
of lake Superior. skirtlng the south
shore of Mile Lacs lake, as stated in
the Pioneer last week, now appears to
be generally regarded as q certainty.
John Foley, of the well known firm of
Foley Brothers, heavy railroad con-
tractors, and who constructed 100
miles of road for the 500 company
during the present year, spent q
couple of days at Mile Lacs this
week. Mr.. Foley gave it as his opin-
ion that trains would be running to
Mile Lacs lake within another year.

LONG PRAIRIE WANTS THE 500.

Long Prairie Leader: It is set-
tied fact that Duluth must be the
eastern terminus of the western
wheat carrying roads. At present the
500 road has no line into Duluth and
all its Duluth shipments have to be
made over the lines Of it's chief and
bitterest competitors, the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific.
During the course of year hundreds
and even thousands of 500 cars pass
over the Little Falls & Dakota branch
of the N. P. On route to Duluth while
the Great Northern handles an even
greater share of them. The situation
is intolerable to the 500 officials and
they have been earnestly seeking a
feasible Duluth route for some years.
The fact that surveying parties are
now actively at work lends color to
the general opinion as to Soc plans
and the Leader is in the possession of
what it believes to be reliable evil
dence that the company not only in
tends to build but it has not as yet
decided definatelv on the route.
Here is where Long Prairie ought TO
get busy. A study Of the lay of the
region will show that the ideal ronte
to Duluth from points on the present
500 road is from Alexandria through
Long Prairie and on to the head Of
the lakes. It is an almost exactly
straight line by way of this route and
the topography of the country is such,
so we are Informed by an old railroad
construction man, rhat the route Is
entirely feasible and more than ordi'
narily easy of construction.
The Commercial Club of the village
are to take the matter up at once and
q delegation is to be sent to the Soc
officials to urge the Todd County
route. An effort will be made also to
interest the Alexandria people.

MEET CATALOGUE PRICES

Several local merchants have lately
called our attention to the fact that
they ere selling goods in their stores
ldenticalIy the same as advertised In
the large catalogues sent out by the
multitudinous mail order houses at
prices the same and less than those
advertised there. One house adver-
tises the same article at lesser
price, here in Little Falls, than Sears.
Roeb1ck & Co., offer it f. o. B. cars
at Chicago. All other articles in their
store are priced in proportion and so
are those kept IN other local business
establishments. And yet people will
seno to the catalogue houses. It is
beyond understanding, but after hav-
ing been heeced few times our peo.
pie will ''get wise'', and then the
catalogue houses will get what is COM
ing to them.
