Great Northern may extend branch to Northfield Hamden town planned
Reports from Edmore suggest the Great Northern road will extend its Edmore branch at least twelve miles this summer, creating a new town named Hamden. Rumors of moving Northfield appear partly true, with plans to push the line toward the northern part of Towner county between Langdon and Cando branches. A surveyor in town northbound said final orders were pending for the extension and for the Sonris line and a branch leaving the main line at Granville.
