Profitable Investments.

There is no more inviting field in the
United States for the investment of cap
ital safely and protitably than in tile
rapidly settling portions OF the west.
And there is no section of the rapidly
settling west that offers better opportun-
tiles than the far-famed Red river valley
in northern Dakota. The reasons are
very plain, and may he stated as follows,
viz: No purely agricultural country
ever settled so quickly or by so enter
prising a people as northern Dakota.
No section Of country ever presented a
good water, and favorable climate; cal
culated to captivate the settler, and fill
him with desire to own and cultivate
at least one quarter section OF it. No
section of country ever SO fully met the
high expectations of it's occupants, by
producing srcha succession of bountiful
crops from year to year, as to fully JUS
tify the great expectations OF its people.
No section Of country of equal extent
has developed SO rapidly, and in no sec
tiOn OF country in America. and perhaps
not in the world, have so many people of
limited means more than doubled their
capital in SO short a time, as in North
Dakota within the past three years. The
price of land here is now very low COM
pared with the excellence ofthe land and
its favorable location; and is quite sure
to double again within four years, if not
sooner. Good lands from five to ten
miles from a railroad can now he had at
from SIS to 81 per acre, and will rapidly
increase in value until it reaches a ready
sale at Sis and $40 per acre.-Exchange'

CONGRATULATED.
Cnrrinpton News:


We congratulate our sister town upon
the completion of the Sanhorn, CoOpers-
town Il Turtle Mountain Railroad into
the booming metropolis of Griggs cOun-
ty. If anything more were needed to
insure the permanent prosperity of Coop
erstown, it was just this one thing; and
now the railroad furnishes facilities for
reaching the fertile plains of Griggs
county, we are sure that the resistless
energy of the Coopers and the enterprise
OF tile COOperStOWn merchants will open
up a splendid future to this new district.
The Courier will we'll fulfill the mission
of booming the town for all there is in it.
Valley City Record:
Editor Stair, of the Cooperstown Cour-
ier, fndulges in enthusiasm on the COM
pletion Of the s., g. Il I. NJ: II. r. to
Cooperstown. We congratulate Coop
erstOwn OH the securing of railroad COM
municatiom with the outer world, and
upon her having SO good a paper to tell
it as the CooperstOWm Courier. We can
not, however, readily conceive the diff
culties, tax, expense and endurance that
was required to lay the foundation for
Cooperstown, for the boom was in the
county at that time. The pioneers of
Valley City waited for immigration in
the meantime, for a period Of years, EN-
dured all the Inconvenience Of Coopers-
town III addition. a difference in the
price of building material is about all
that COoperstOWn suffered under more
than our n. p. towns in days gone by.
