JAMESTOWN.

| Business and -EccrytitnQ
Rushing.
[Daily Argus, Fargo.]
AS spring has approached the little
burgh, but coming great city, jamestown,
has taken an aspect which well accords
with her dignity as the metropolis of the
James valley, and business in all its nu-
merous branches has greatly improved.
All of our prominent merchants are max
ing improvements ON their stores, and
several are preparing to build new ones.
The firm of Porter & Roper, new corners
into the valley, have unloaded and set up
six car loads Of farm machinery on their
lots, and will no doubt sustain the high
suggests, and which they bring from their
former place of business, by energetic and
straightforward transactions.
Messrs. Brush and Corwin, who have
been spending some time in the East, re-
turned last week from their sojourn look
ing well, but telling some very bad stories
in regard to the severity of the winter in
that section. S. K McGuins has also re-
turned and will again take upon himself
the duties of cashier of the Bank of
Jamestown.
Work has commenced on both the
PRESBYTERIAN and Methodist churches
The Methodist building will be COM
modious $4,000 building, capable of seat
ing two hundred persons. The Presby-
terian church structure will cost in the
neighborhood of 81, 500, and will be the
finest house of it's kind west of St. Paul
Business Is brisk. Our merchants are
receiving large stocks, and the demand
exceeds that of any other year at this sea-
son. The snow remaining on the ground
retards operations in real estate outside,
but in town there is lively demand. We
expect to receive several families here
this week from Canada. The unfortunates
who have settled in Manitoba discourage
their friends from settling in that coun-
try, but advise them to come to Dakota.
The most of our settlers from Canada
bring means, and are intelligent and pro-
gressive and make good citizens.
A new enterprise is about to be started
here. A few gentlemen propose to build
a malt house about 50x110, three stories
high, the walls to be of stone, three feet
thick. They expect to use about 800
bushels of barley each day. This will
cause about SIS 900 to be invested and at
the same time make home market for
all the barley our farmers can raise.
