Yankton Press and Dakotan: Pro
badly the uppermost thought today
among Yankton business men is that
long desired Yankton-Norfok bridge
and whether it is to be or not to be.
Speculation is rife over the present
intensely interesting situation so very
interesting because the very FIGURE of
the city is largely at stake on the de-
yelopments of the next few weeks.
Everybody realizes this and for this
reason every action of the men here
in the interests of the project are be-
ing watched with a lively interest.
The air is full of rumors, of heavily
loaded cars headed for Yankton,
carrying steel, ties and machinery, for
the immediate starting, on large
scale, of the work, which before a
year rolls away will mean modern
railroad and wagon bridge across the
Missouri at this point. Unfortunately
there is an IF" in the situation, in
spite of the very encouraging symp-
toms. There are those who say J. j.
Hill is trying to get possession of the
combination bridge at Sioux City, is
using Yankton as the big stick to
gain his ends. This reason is given
by some as the real cause of all the
sudden activity at this end of the
line.
However all this may be, it is GER
tain that things are going some in
this quiet berg. A local bank has
been made the repository to a good
sized sum of funds to meet the eX-
penses of the men back of the project
and money is already being spent
freely, ID, ID. Gross, leading hard
ware merchant of this city, got the
first order one for several thousand
feet of hempen rope, with which to

land, where the first real work is to
be done. Queal & Co. came next
with an order for lumber, and the
yards of this firm saw the first work
being done Last uight Engineer G.
Yuille, Contractor J. IL, Johnson and
the latter's foreman, w. b. Ogden
completed two well built flatboats
which We're built with an expedition
and workmanship that showed the
wood artists thoroughly understood
their work. This morning the big
Queal team was given job and
shortly after o'clock the whole outfit
made the first trip to the north end
of the bridge site on the Yankton-Nor
folk grade, where all day lot of pre-
liminary work was under way, En-
gineer w, l.. Bruce, who knows more
of the ms and outs of the engineer
ing on the proposed road than any
other man in Yankton, was asked to
go along, but could not possibly spare
the time and so sent Mr.. Leibee, city
engineer and surveyor, who was fully
able to give Mr., Yuille all the informa
tion he wanted.
In answer 10 numerous questions
fired at him by inQuiSitiVe newspaper
men, Mr.. Yuille steadily maintains his
position, that this time the road is a
go, Notwithstanding all adverse criti
cisms and rumors. That the people
he represents are building the road
for the best of all reasons, that there
is business in it for them. That the
time is now ripe for the project
which failed twenty years ago because
1t was too premature, That the inter
vening two decades has seen the ter
ritory to be covered progress so rapid
Iy that there is good paying traffic

Worse Than the katzenjammer Kids,

wrong, simply raising sheol. Mud was
spattered over the rooms, beds and
