far the greater number cor.1e to fnd
work on the new lines of railroad
When IL Is considered that over 400
miles are to be constructed, ana that
every pound of freight. every irnple-
ment and horse used in the work Of
grading must pass through Mandan.
and that all the supplies and provisl
ions for the men in camp must get to
the camps from this city, 1t can be
family comprehended that Mandan
presents but the beginning of the hus-
ting hive that 1t will be for the next
six months.
Outfits Sent to Camp.
This last week, despite the rainy
weather has seen the long caravans OF
outfits for the work camps go out both
north and south. The city in the
neighboorhood of the oflces of Caugh-
rem, Winters. Smith q Co, is strewn
with grading outfits, and the construc-
ton of spur track has somewhat ia
tcilitated the work cs handling the
trainloads of material sad supplies be-
ing received.
At the west end of tho city new
buildings are being ,ected by Porter
Bros. & Welch. in addition to their
large commissary, and these buildings
are all fitted with supplies and pro-
visions and look more like wholesale
hardware and grocery houses than
anything else.
The work along the lines is mostly
preliminary to the actual work that
will be begun the latter part of this
week Camps have been struck at a
dozen different places both north and
south. On the south line there are
camps from Mott east and along the
river down to Fort Yates. Porter
Bros & Welch have been delayed
greatly by the wet weather in getting
their forces to work. though much of
the grading paraphernal.a had been
hauled out week before la-t caughren.
Winters, Smith & CO. have just COM
menced getting their outfits out into
the field.
Grade OF Only an inch.
Several small locomotives that will
be used by johnson Dauchy & Carey
Co, who have the contract for most
Of the steam shovel work on the south
line, have arrived.
1t is state that the north line viii
be constructed with grade of scarcely
an inch to the mile and that the spec
iflcations call for work Of absolutely
the highest class, indicating that the
Northern Pacific expects this line to
carry much of the through trafic.
Merchants are getting share OF the
business which this activity brings.
Many of the supplies and provisions
naturally come to the contractors in
car lots from wholecale centers but
the contractors are buying what sup-
plies they can through the Mandan
merchants.
u Forty Chicago business men will ar
rive here today and the Business Mems
