EXTEND TURTLE
LAKE BRANCH
IMPORTANT RAILROAD EXTENSION TO
Be MADE BY The NORTHERN
PACIFIC RAILROAD SOON.

Jamestown, N. D., May 13.-
The Northern Pacific is preparing
to extend this year its old Sykeston
branch now known as the Turtle
Lake branch westward. The Wash
burn Leader says:
Through inside information The
Leader is enabled to give the route
of the N. p. Carrington-T Turtle
Lake branch the right of way
which is now being secured, and
which will be built at once into the
Berthold reservation, the next body
of good land to be thrown open to
settlement in the Bismarck land
district.
The new line runs through Turtle
Lake township and diagonally on
through Malcolm township to cor
ner of 1882 west and south of
John Nichols ranch, thence in
westerly direction about the center
Williston graphic. (Williston, Williams County, N.D.) 1895-1919, 1910-05-19

of McGibs township, the center OF
Platt township, thence in a north
westerly direction to the Berthold
reservation and the fiat where the
old Ryder postoffice was located,
about six miles south of the pres
ent town Of Ryder on the 500.
The line will run about twelve
miles from Underwood and Cold
Harbor and about half way be-
tween Garrison and Max. This
means many new towns and addi-
tional wealth for the county and to
such old timers as John Reuter-,
Han Nygaard, Fred Mellin and
others, who in early days we're
obliged to haul their grain to Bis
marck, it will be revelation.
Dirt will soon be flying on the
extension as it is the aim of the n.
p. to steal march on the 500.
Important activities on the part
of the latter may soon be expected.
The 500 is now building from
Drake to Devils Lake and it is
certain that grading from Plaza
west will soon begin.
Another important piece Of rail
road information is in the prepara-
tions of the Great Northern for its
water level" line from Williston
south along the east side of the
Missouri, through Washburn, Bis
marck, Pierre, Sioux City and on
to the cotton regions of the Gulf
of Mexico. Work on this line is
soon to begin.

WlLLEToN WINS
FROM BERTnOLD
LOCAL TEAM DEFEATS BERTnOlD IN
SHUT OUT GAME SUNDAY BY
SCORE THREE TO NOTHING.

Long Bill Harvey was the
best pitcher in the state Sunday
and let the happy bunch from
Berthold take only two hits from
his assortment of fast curves and
shoots. The game was clean and
fast in spite of the cold rainy
weather and the home team played
without an error. Cutting took q
couple of chances that were ham
died like hot biscuit and Bruegger
hauled down a line drive over
third that would have been good
for two scores for the visitors.
Moses played the best game at
first that has been seen in the
town since the days of "Old Bill''
Jarvis. Sammy Parker cavorts
around the center field just like
that Pearlheart colt of McChes-
ney's anu takes everything that
comes his way. Settle and Meal
lister, two of the old stand-byes,
were in the game all the time and
it was death to try to steal second.
The game was quickly played and
the fans who we're warm blOoded
enough to stand the cold weather
were rewarded by seeing one of
the best games ever played in the
city.
The local team goes to Minot
Saturday for a series of games.
The first game will be played Sat
urday evening at $3.50 and the sec
ond game Sunday afternoon.

RAILROADS WAR
FOR PROSPERITY
GREAT NORTHERN AND 500 LINES
HAVE BATTLE IN McHENRY
COUNTY.

Minot, N. d., May 16.-Judge
Burr of the district court at Rug
by granted to the Great Northern
railway company a temporary in
junction against the right of way
agents of the 500 line restraining
them from interfering with its ac-
cession of land for right of way
purposes in southeastern McHen-
ry county, where the two roads
have recently clashed several
times in the purchase of right of
way property. There is an inter-
esting story attached.
Some time ago Albert Plates, a
farmer with fine farm in south
eastern McHenry county, had
part of his property condemned
for right of way by the Great
Northern's right of way agents.
The transaction between Plates
and the representatives of the
roads were amicable and arrange
ments were made to deed the
land desired for right of way to
the Great Northern. The deed
was filed but all the details had
not been completed in the matter
of recording it.
In the meantime and while this
proceeding was pending, Plates
was approached by a prosperous
buyer, who offered him 81 500 for
the property. The man anxious
to buy was informed that part of
the land was decided, but the pros
pective purchaser announced that
this did not make any material
difference to him and the transac-
ton was made to him for cash.
About this time it developed that
the buyer was 500 right of way
agent and that he had slipped one
over on James j. HIPS much re-
spected transcontinental railroad.
When the Great Northern came
to perfect their title for the right
Of way purchased it was suddenly
discovered that there had been
some Hindooing in the register of
deeds office and that they we're up
against their old rival, the 500
line, in legal battle which had its
evident complications. They ap-
piled for and we're granted tenn
porary Injunction.
At the hearing on the injunction
Register of Deeds H. H. Berg of
McHenry county testified that he
had discovered irregularities
through the action of clerk in
his office and that the deed origin
ally given to the Great Northern
was good and regular, and that he
had subsequently corrected the
record in its favor.

GREAT NORTHERN RAILROAD
TO BUILD 350-DlILE Line
NEW ROAD TO BE BUILT IN MONTANA FROM HAUCKS
TO M0NDAK- MEANS MORE BUSINESS FOR WILL
LST0N--TRAINS WILL run IN HERE.

Great Falls, Mont, May IA =
The Great Northern, through it's
Montana attorneys, Veazey &
Veazey of this city, today gave
out information regarding a $50
mile extension of the Grert North
ern.
The new road will start from
Haucks, Montana, Billings &
Northern to Lewiston and from
there east to Mondak, where it
will connect with the main line
running to the extreme eastern
end of the state.
From Lewistown the road will
pass through the Flat Willow
creek country and from there to
the Musselshell river direct to the
Mondak.
The new road will open up
thousands of acres of fertile land
in Fergus and Dawson counties.
Claim agents have already been
sent out by the Great Northern,
and it is the hope of the officials
to secure all right of way from
Lewistown to Great Falls in
peaceful manner. Otherwise con-
demnation suits will be started.
Men have also been sent to
Mondak and scattered along the
proposed line to secure all of the
necessary rights as soon as posi-
BILE.
The line from Great Falls to
Mondak will open up territory
rich in agricultural possibilities
which is from 100 to $50 miles
from any railroad.
The Hills have had their eyes on
that section of the country for
years, and their action in throw
ing large numbers of surveyors in
that section was surprise to ev-
cry one, as all of the preliminary
work has been kept exceedingly
quiet from the very beginning.
The above article shows where
the Great Northern will build a
new road in the very near future.
1t will open up some of the finest
country in the state of Montana.
If the road joins the main line at
Mondak as stated the trains will
without doubt run into Williston.
This will mean great deal to the
City of Opportunity and it will
make it the business center and
distributing point for a great Sec
tion of eastern Montana.
