heroes and Reroines of the Bor.
der,

ln American history there are no more
interesting figures than the Heroes and
Herelnes of the Border. Bold, dashing,
adventurous and patriotic; loyal to
friends, to country, and to the interests
OF society, their work was singularly ef-
fectlve ia the advancement of American
civilization. With seeming recklessness,
Their efforts were in the interest of law
and order, and the people owe them =
debt OF gratitude thcy do not forget
Their page in history is as fascinating
as 1t is honorable, and there is a pecu-
liar pleasure in reading the narrative
OF their wonderful exploits.
'Fhe times which produced those he
roes and heroines mark a period in
American history of absorbing interest
alike to old and young. It is proper
that it should he SO. These hardy pio-
neers coupled virtue with courage, hu-
manity and love of country with the
stern duties of frontier life and battle.
and the example of their lives not only
interests but strengthens our faith and
admiration in human courage and un-
selseltish purpose
In American pioneer history there are
three distinct eras marked as distinctly
by three geographical divisions; from
the Allegheny Mountains to the Missls-
sippi, marking the first from the Mis-
sissippi to the Rocky Mountains the sec
ond California and the Pacific Slope
the third. The settlement of these vast
regions developed great leaders, whose
achievements have made them justly
and widely famous. They have warm
place in the hearts of the people, and a
prominent one in their admiration. Ii
is appropriate that their achievements
should be recorded, and we note with
pleasure the forthcoming of new book,
now ready, from the press of N. D.
Thompson & Co., Publishers, New York
and st. Louis, Mo-, called g Conquerina
the Wilderness, or New Pictorial His
tory of the Life and Times of the Pio-
neer Heroes and Heroiues of America .
1t is written by Col Frank Triplett,
an accomplished writer, whose literary
qualifications and great experience on
the frontiers are said to eminently fit
him for so noble task.
A special feature Of the book is its apt
and profuse illustrations, embracing 300
superb engravings, illustrating incidents
and persons the latter embracing near
~ 100 life like portraits of pioneer lead
ers, never before given men and wo-
men which make it u sort of picture
gallery, as we'll as book of thrilling
narrative, that viii lend to the book i;
charm and interest not to be resisted.
1t is sold by subscription, through
canvassing agents, and presents an OPP
portunity to agents to make money es-
pecially inviting. We advertise it in
another column.

WESTERN
Land EXCHANGE
OF
ST. PAUL, MIMI.

The WESTERN LAND Elk
CHANGE is the title Of an organ
ization incorporated under the
laws Of the State Of Minnesota
for the transaction Of all bust
ness connected with real estate
matters, but especially in the line
of real estate sale and exchange.
The want of such an exchange is
evident in every city and hamlet
in this Northwest. There are farm
ers who want to 60 to town, and
city men who want to go to the
country. There are Eastern men
who want to go West, and West
ern men who want to go East.
There are men in the older set
tied parts Of Minnesota who want
to go to Western Minnesota or
Dakota, and there are men here
who own lands in those parts
who would like to exchange
them for lands here. There are
men who have mill stock, or
bank stock, or other personal
property, that they would like to
exchange for land. Now the
Western Land Exchange steps in
to bring these parties together,
and to assist them in making
these exchanges.
The Exchange was originally
organized at Red Wing in July.
1882, by the following named
parties: S. J.Willard, President,
Red Wing; B. B. Herbert, Vice
President. Red Wing; L. A. Han
cock, Secretary and Treasurer.
Red Wing; W. G. Rice, General
Agent, Red Wing; T. w. Hoyt,
Attorney, Red Wing; j. W. Han
cock, Ellsworth; e. j. Hodgson,
St. Paul, and subsequently the
name, good will and business
was purchased by B. B. Herbert
and DR.. w. M. sweeney. The re-
suit has been the opening of an
Office at No. SO East Third Street,
near Cedar Street, ST. Paul, with
the same general object, this be-
ing deemed the only suitable
place for carrying out the gen.
eral purposes proposed in the
original organization. st. Paul
is not only the political center of
the State, but it is the center OF
capital and commerce Of the
New Northwest.
Mr.. sweeney will continue to
conduct the Agency at Red
Wing, under the same name, for
the local business which comes
to one of the solidest cities Of the
State, while the general Office at
st. Paul will be under the di-
rect control of Mr.. 3. B. Herbert,
as President and Attorney, and
L. J. Boynton, as Secretary and
General Agent.
