MANY LABORING MEN ARE BEING USED UP NORTH Backus-Brooks Company Rushi}ig Men to Big Falls for Work on M. &l Extension. Duluth Herald: The 'Backus- Brooks company, which is -build- ing the-connecting Iink -between International Falls ”and _the present terminus o!'; the Minne- sota & International road at Ripple, on the Big Fork river, has placed orders in Dulath for men to work on the extemsion. One crew already has been sent on the new work by the National Employment company, and more will follow every few days, - until a full force is employed. It is expected that the laying of the rails will be completed by July 1, and: that' trains will be running by July 4, in tifhe for & big celebration onthe* national holiday. Ten camps-are to be established along the survey, at a distance of three miles apart. The extension is to be a little more than thirty miles in length Three camps are new in oper- ation, and 150 station men are employed. This number is !io be increased to about 400, z The Duluth, Rainy Lake & Winnipeg road has all the men it needs to carry on the winter work along the extension to In- ternational Kalls, and the icon- struction of the line is bemé Ta- mdly pushed. It is considered hardly likely, however, that the latter line will have trains in operation to the border town as soon as will its rival, although both roads may be mmphted ; about the same time. = £ el Loal news on last page. “ More locals will be fo\mfl on ipage 2. 2
