Officers of the st. Paul line. who are
located in the twin city, refuse to
discuss the subject, although they ad.
NIT that there has been considerable
talk of the project in the past few
months.
The route considered most feasible
for the new line is an extension down
the Red river valley from Fargo n.
D., which Is the present terminus OF
the North Dakota branch. The ex-
tension from Fargo would be about $50
miles long, depending upon what towns
would be reached en- route. Easy
grades would be secured along the
river and the shipping from the local
points has been increasing rapidly in
the past few years. The proposed line
IL built will be an active competitor
of the Great Northern and the 500
