own several lots SELL" The trouble
is that tue lots on the principal
streets are OWNED by nearly as
many persons as there are lots in
number, and hence the result is
easily seen if each one takes the
view that he may hold on.
Nj ess. Walbridge, Beck, Breckin-
ridge, Steele, MaItby and otherpro-
perty owners who were here this
week he ID meeting and discussed
the situation fully. They decided
that it was vital to the growth and
prosperity Of the town, that pro-
perty De offered for sale, and they
authorized that the nonresident
owners be addressed to that effect.
Men Who are seeking locations
for business are driven away every
day, and the result is that they gen.
orally locate in Duluth. Only yes
terday man wanted a site for a
hotel, and another a lot for q bank
ing house which he proposed to
build at once of brick but not d
foot of gronnd could they get at
any price! And several men who
lately tried to secure saw mill sites
on our side of the bay have been
driven away because Of high prices
or indisposition TO sell, and forced
against their preference to locate
on the Duluth side. They are ask
ed 81, 600 per acre for mill sites on
Conncr's Point which is as yet not
accessible even by rail, while on
the Duluth side where two railroads
enter they can buy, and have
bought, eligible sites for $3.50 and
$500 per acre! So far. the railroads
that are coming here, and the de-
velopmenls that are being inaugur-
ated in this country, are all going

the owners must aeake up, and
come to their senses about the
situation here, or run a chance Of
losing their opportunity. Of wha.
earthly benefit will all the railroads
be to our property here if it is
allowed 10 remain idle, and popula-

owners of the original town are to-

will drive the railroads and bust
