In the Intoiosts of the piojoct aio beIng -
Ing watihod with a H\ol > intoiost.
The ail is full of Illinois , of heavily
loaded cais headed for Yankton ,
cat rj ing stool , ties and machlneiy , for
the Immediate stinting , on a huge
scale , of the woik , which bofoio a
year tolls awa > will moan a modem
rallioad and wagon hiidgo acioss the
lUlssomi at this point UnfoiInnately
thoio Is an "if" In the situation , in
spite of the \ery oncouiaging symp
toms. Theio aio these who say J. .1.
1U11 is tijing to got possession of the
combination bildge at Sioux City , is
using Yankton as "tho big stick" to
gain his ends This loason is ghon
b > some as the leal cause of all the
sudden activity at this end ot the
lino.
Howesei all this mn.v bo , it Is cer
tain that things aio going some In
this quiet boig A local bank has
boon made the icpositoiy to a good
sized sum of funds to moot the ex
penses of the men back of the piojcit
and money Is ahoady being spent
freely. D , D Oioss , a leading haul-
wme mot chant of this city , got the
Hist older , one for several thousand
foot of hempen tope , with which to
run a sixty-foot baigo to Ambioso Is
land , whoio the first ical woik is to
bo clone Queal & Co. came next
with an oulei foi lumber , and the
jauls of this , tlrin saw the lli t work
being done. Last night Engineer 0.
Yiiillo. Contiactor .1. H Johnson and
tin1 lattoi's foi email , W B. Ogden ,
completed two well built llatboats ,
which weie built with an expedition
mid woikmanship that showed the
wood at tints thoioughly nuclei stood
their woik. This moining the big
Queal team was given a job and
shoitl.v after S o'clock the whole outfit
made the Hist trip to the noith end
of the bildge site on the Yankton-Nor-
folk giade , whoio all day a lot of pro-
llinlnaiy work was under way. En
gineer W L Bruce , who knows moio
of the ins and outs of the engineer
ing on the pioposed toad than any
othei man in Yankton , was asked to
go along , but could not possibly spaio
the time and so sent Mi. Lelbee , city
engineer and surveyor , who was fully
nblo to give Mr. Yulllo all the Infotma-
tlon ho wanted.
In answer to numetons questions
fired at him bv Inquisitive newspaper
men. Mr Ynllle steadily maintains his
position , that this time the road Is a
go , notwithstanding nil adverse criti
cisms and rumors That the people
he represents ate building the toad
for the best of all reasons , that there
Is business In It for them. That the
tlmo Is now ripe for the project ,
which failed twenty > ears ago uecause
It was too premature That the Inter
vening two decades has seen the ter
ritory to bo covered progress so rapidly -
ly that there Is a good paying traffic
In sight from the Htnrt. Ho asserts
that Yankton puoplo will very soon
have nil doubts removed IIH to the sin
cerity of the men ongnged In the work
and that they might just as well get
ready for n now em about to Html
hoio that will make Yankton boom In
a way that ulll satisfy her most opti
mistic cltl/.i'iiH. TltOHo nineteen cars
of mate Hal alluded to ycsteida.v , had
not mlived lit * to this morning , hut
they arc * actually on the toad , and Mr.
Yulllo says , with a twinkle In his o > o ,
that ho anticipates the Honfiitlon they
will cause on their aiilval , that they
will get hole as soon as the Milwau
kee load can conveniently make the
haul fiom Chicago and that any day
now ought to see them milvo , and
the MIOIIOI the bettei , as he and Con-
11 actor Johnson need them as soon as
thov can get hold of them.
Taken all In all , things do look
lather good for old Yankton and a
teal encoiiHiglng s.vmptom Is the firm
conviction of the local men most In
touch with the piojoct for many .voain
that the whole big deal Is a sine go.
Now watch hoi smoke. In older to
cinch the thing would It not bo n good
thing to not overlook anychances and
foi one thing to get that $75,000 bonus
cinched ?
