THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE.

DESTROYS Of using moderate language, yet this
chamber of commerce, representing in its 800
members, the wealth, intelligence and morality
of the city, and showing their faith by building
a S150,000 home for their meetings and opera
tons, is compelled to say, that, in their judg-
ment the aCORdeJW material Developments Of
the past -four years haze been but a preparation
for that real Development Of this city and tribH-
tGry country aCtich is to become the most marked
national feature Of the Re1 decade. Certainly,
no three years in the history of Chicago have
that of ST. Paul from 1881 to 1884.
The Northern Pacific alone would secure to St.
Paul wonderful growth 1t drains into this
city q region larger than the combined area of
Germany, France, Norway, Sweden, Holland ard
Denmark. Because Of this, and many new rail-
roads pointing to this city, the inference is una
voidable that the growth of st. Paul for the next
decade will be q commercial marvel, q. r,-of. /

trict. present to you the name Of man
who has always worked to keep up an organ
ization of the party in the western portion of
the district. The man who I propose to
nominate, is Jas. j. Thornton, who has
kept the flag flying in the western part Of the
present congressional district.
Hon. Jas Brown, of Mankato, presented
the name of Hon. P. A. Foster Of this city.
He reached the sentiments of Col. O'Leary
in saving that a,candidate was wanted, who
would make thorough canvass. He con-
sidered Mr.. Foster exactly the man who
would preach Democracy where the truth had
not before penetrated Judge Brown con-
sidered the course Mr.. Foster is pursuing in
relation to the tariff an excellent one.
DR.. Cooley, of Madelia, considered Mr..
Thornton deserving of the nomin alton. He
had stood up for the Democratic party during
the past twenty-four years and had done
more to organize the party in this district
than any other man in the state.
R. L. Mason was pleased. He state thatd
it did his soul good to see every delegate
present staunch Democrat, while two years
ago there were half Republicans and half
Democrats. Hon. Jas. Brown who two
years ago leaned toward the Alliance is to-
day as thorough Democrat as can be found
Mr.. Mason denounced the tariff and sec
onded the nomination of Foster.
The vote was ordered by counties and re-
suited as follows:

RAILROADS.

The railway system of the northwest of which
st. Paul is the acknowledged center, embraces
1851 miles of road, of which 1878 are in
Minnesota. 1t employees 4,153 men, 1851 of
whom live in Minnesota mostly in st. Paul.
Ten trunk lines run into the city, and flee more
to or from this place are now building, and yet
T0e more roads are extending their lines toward
ST. Paul. Daily, 164 passenger and Sc freight
trains arrive at or depart from this city. There
are railroads in 70 of the 70 counties of the state
In 1883, there were added to the st. Paul roads
1919 miles, costing S25, 1885,, 500. There local
improvements in 1882 cost $4,000; in 1888, 81,
$4,000. Rail freghts received, 1,492, $40 tons !;
forwarded, T9S, 597 tons. Here are the head
quarters costing S165,OOO, exclusive Of grounds
and principal terminus of the Northern Pacific,
and most of the other roads centering here all of
which have large shops in this city, and are
eagerly grasping for more ground for their fu-
ture operations. 1t is fairly presumable that
ten years from, now, this will be even greater
railroad centre than Chicago. OF the 1900
miles added to the railway system of the Union
IN 1882, 2,4OO miles belong to st. Paul system.

REAL ESTATE.

The conservative spirit of the people has pre-
vented any rapid booms, so property is much
cheaper here than in any other city Of its size
and prospects. Best vacant lots at $500 front
foot; in wholesale districts, Fifth and Sixth
streets, S175 to $500; residence lots, 50x175, at
$1,000 to $4,000; plenty of good lots, 40x125,
where workingmen are located, at S175 to $500.
Good lots in medium districts, $500 to $1,000.
Acreage property adjoining city, $500 to $780,
within five miles, $50; within ten miles, $50 to
S25. The best evidence that lots are cheap is
that houses built thereon are largely caught up
at q rent yielding from Is to 80 per cent.
In 1882 there were 4,447 conveyances, with a
consideration OF 80, SD, S41; in 1885, 4S74 deeds,
consideration S12, 9sl 1881 IAN increase of $685.,
400, or 40 per cent.
Official 0dLudti0n Of real estRte in 1881 was
SCI ,596,326 in 1888 S31 623, 373, increase of
SO per cent in two years. Property is assessed
about two-ffths of its real value, so value of
realty of st. Paul is $40, 05S, AGO. The remark
able fact is shown by the official figures that the
