SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER YEAR The Railroad Era THE past year has seen more railroad construction than any previous year in northern Minne- sota and there are signs that the laying of steel rails will continue actively during the next two or three years. Transportation is the key to developmentand the activity of the railroads in ex- tending their net work of tracks over this part of the state is being following by the beginn- ing of the greatest period of dev- elopment in its history, The northern Red River Valley, though settled for years, has had until 1905, the most meager railroad facilities, while the north central part of the state is even yet but partially supplied, there being but one through line and that running east and west. Within a year or two there will be another east and west line and at last two that will connect southern Minnesota with the ex. treme northern boundry. With the campaign of railway building and with the prospect of success for the drainage movement the growth in population and the development in resources of northern Minnesota will make the census figures of 1905 look very small and unimportant. Good Roads Commission With the first of the year Gov- ernor Johnson will have the ap- poirtme t of three highway commisgioners who will consti tute a state commission under whose authority all money here- after to be appropriated by the state for road work will be ex- pended. The law creating the state highway commission was passed by the last legislature and entirely does away with the old method of appropriat- ing to each county every two years certain road moneys. Under the old system the road appropration was simp- ly something for politicians to prey upon. Under the new sy-. stem no state money will be ex- pended for roads except upon approval of the road by the state commission. An engineer will be employed by the board and the needs of different parts of the state will be thoroughly in- vestigated with the result that road building will hereafter be doue according to an intelligent plan. The matter of good roads is scarcely secondary to that of drainage. When the state has solved these two problems its development will wait on nothing but human enterprise and energy.

FOLEY’S HONEY AND TAR soothes and heals the inflamed air pas- sages, allays the feverish conditions, stops the cough and prevents serious results from a cold.
