the party to Golden Valley and re-

0sulahs and Zap.
A stop of about ten minutes was
made at both these places. They are
neither Of them, very large as yet, in
point Of population, but whatever has
been said agr~iculturally about Hazen
can as justly pc applied to these
towns. Crops in both these places, 1t
is said, will average about the
same as in the vicinity Of Hazen,
which is about IS bushels to the
acre or better. William Gunderson
of Zap, a leading merchant, accom-
panied the Bismarckers from here to
his home town, and upon arrival.
there treated them to cigars and ex-
tended them welcome to his town.
He was returning from the capital
city and made q welcome addition to.
the party.
Golden Valley.
The town of.Golden Valley Is the
metropolis Of the valley from which
it takes its name. 1t is the present
terminal of the northern branch, but
is not scheduled to bear that distinc-
ton very long, as the construction
of the road westward from there Is
but the matter of a very short time
now. 1t Is q pretty little town-and:
not so very little, either-as nothing
short of a count would determine its
standing with Stanton in point Of
population. One of the first impress
sions of a visitor to this place is the
neatness and up to dateness of its
stores and business places. Crops
are fine in this locality and the town
is building up rapidly. The TOWNSHIP
covers more territory than is usual
with the other towns on the line and
its building will Consequently be from
the town limits toward the center.
Both it's citizens and business men
are a h%ospitable and congenial lot of
live ones, who are justiiably proud
of the growth and prosperity of their
town. AS this was the objective end
of the tour, the train was held for
about an hour and a half, to LOOK
over the town and surroundings, and
to allow for supper. A portion of the
population are of German national
ity, and their absolute loyalty to the
country of their adoption, coupled
with their inherent love for the
Fatherland, showed in their eager
discussion Of the war, and their anxi-
ETY. to learn of any new developments
in the situation.
The Return Trip.
After leaving Golden Valley, the
return trip was made without stop,
except to let off the guests of the
party who had Joined them at the diff
ferent points along the route. Owing
to the unexpected delay at Hazen, the
train did not reach the capital city
until 100 a. M, and it was a some.

boosters that left the station in the
early hours Of the morning. Aside
even from the object for which the
trip was planned, it was a pleasant

The Band.
One of the most pleasing features
Of the trip was the music of the Biz.

strong, and at every stop they played.
Not only was their excellent music
a fine boost for Bismarck, but it was
heartily enjoyed by all who heard it.
