Prominent rail- road officials, representatives of the war department, and speakers of na: tional note will be present to ji North Dakotans in the exercises. Rail Route Was Imperative The gold rush to California i: 1849, which made a transcontinental ytail route imperative; the invention of farm machinery and the schism between the north and south all con- tributed to Western expansion, As early as 1863 men were dreaming of an overland route to Oregon and Cal- ifornia and being scoffed at for their folly. The survey made under the direction of Governo: , Stevens in 1855, however, crystallized these dreams into a reality. Edwin F. Johnson, a civil engineer, mupped out a plan on which Thomas H. Canfield was able to get a char- , ter from the government which gave “the Northern Pacific railway, in lieu of money, every other section of land over an irregular strip eighty miles wide extending ftom St. Paul to Seattle. Stock sales were secured this land. “Inthe ‘pente 878 the road was saved by its land wales after it faced disaster in the failure of the Jay Cooke company, which financed the building of the road.
