of five years. Just before it expired,
however, David Hilger appeared be

OF the franchise, which is still in force
and effect.

ing right-of-way and have practically
closed up for all Of the ground they
need within the city and for a dis

the way in here and expects to have
at least four hundred teams here
within the next two weeks. There
will also be the usual complement Of
scrapers, graders and steam shovels
At least four hundred men will be
required to work the outfit.
The larger number OF these outfits
will be put to work on the Kendall
branch, although some OF them will
start working eastward on the Mel
stone cutoff.
Work Will Be Rushed.
With such an outfit at work, it is
expected that the line into the Ken
dali country will be completed with

pleted, the entire outfit will be put to
work on the main line, and before
the end of the year the greater portion
of the grading between here and Mel
stone will be gotten out Of the way
while substantial progress will also
have been made on the Great Falls.

absence, however, and his fellow
workmen were shocked to learn OF
his death. He did not drink to ex-
cess and apparently was in good
health. No reason can be assigned
for his act unless it be despondeucy
brought about by brooding over pri-
vate affairs. He was we'll liked by
his associates.
