Construction
of New Lines

Construction work is under way
on both of the railroad lines now
building into Choteau, and is being
pushed vigorously. The month of
April so far has been very favorable
for the contractors.
The frost is entirely out of the
ground, and has been since the
first of the month. Also, there have
been no snow furries and very little
wind.
-Four crews are at work on the
Great Northern line. Contractor
Galusha is located just south of
Choteau with his force, at the place
where he left off late last fall. He
has been engaged in completing a
cut at the point where the railroad
rises to the bench from the Teton
valley.
At Power, material for the line is
being assembled, including ties,
steel and bridge timbers. A special
yard has been provided for storing
this material. A considerable force
is at work at that end of the line,
and another grading outfit is en-
gagged some miles out of Power.
A week ago, the first construction
crew on that part of the line be-
tween Choteau and Bynum moved
across from Conrad, to which point
the outfit was shipped, to a point
on the Burton bench on the line of
survey. Work has already been
commenced on that section of the
line. The crew there is reported to
be a fairly large one, and it will be
increased right along.
There is no Lick of energy in the
way in which the Great Northern
is prosecuting the work.
Work on the Milwaukee line is
reported to be progressing rapidly
also. A big force is at work at
Mill coulee, a steam shovel having
been moved to that point from the
station of Largent on the Augusta
line. This is the contract of NJ
Roman. who is himself directing the
work.
Another force under Contractor
Frazer is pushing the grading at a
point some seven miles south OF
Choteau.
Work has also been resumed on
the Hodgskiss contract just above
Choteau, along Spring Creek. A
crew has been on the job there fol
the past week.
In every way, the prospect fol-
rapid completion of the grading il
encouraging on both lines. To bt
sure, the Milwaukee has the larger
problem and will not get into the
Choteau country as early as the
Great Northern, but there is nc
longer any question that it is com.
ing as soon as it can. Everything
indicates that Great Northern train,
will be running into Choteau be
fore the month of July comes TO ;
! close. .-Chotean Acantha.

angry at their Agent, Fred Morgan.
according to the Kalispell Journal.
They contend that Agent Morgan
is holding from them monies that
they should have, and that they are
living on a mere pittance. On Tues

the feeling against the administra-

posted with the agent large sums.

with constant refusal.
