idea grew out Of the butchery OF Ryan, the

than decade after Stewards prophecy,
said that the mineral and agricultural
belt tributary to st. Paul would eventu-
ally create one of the largest and
wralthieSt cities in the world. To him
it seemed inevitable that it should be
so. and he gave utterance to that which
his research had warranted. Henry
Willard in 1888. while at the height of
his fame, found time to say, i'll the
midst Of the feaSting and dining of his
triumphal march, that st. Paul con
tanned greater promise for the future
than any other Western city.
"Her tributary country is so large. so
varied in resources. 50 capable Of settle
ment and cultivation, that the process
of natural laws will place her in posi-
ton to which the hands of men could
never raise her. ST. Paul will be the
metropolis of the Northwest not so
much by reason of her people as owing
to her natural position as a gateway
and the character of the country she
commands
Returning to st. Paul five years later
QSSS) and speaking to her business and
professional men again, Mr.. Willard
found occasion to repeat his prophecy
and to add that her influence was al
ready potent in the East, and that size
was recognized as the financial al d
commercial center Of one of the richest
sections in the Union. Thomas f.
Cakes, president OF the Northern Pacific
railroad, and long and keen observer
OF the progress Of st. Paul. had no hest
tation at the same time.in prOnouncing
her progress as the wonder Of the age,
and predicting for her future a success

a marked and permanent Increase over
1887. In this there is much of value for
future benefit. EraS of real estate spec
ulation too often cause profitable in
dustries to suffer in the development
of a city. The check at the close of 1887
of this speculation had the inevitable
tendency to turn capital and energy
toward the jobbng. manufacturing and
building industries of St. Paul. with an
effect marvellous in lis magnitude.

CREDIT GOOD.
1t is noteworthy that the mortgage
and loan agents of St. Paul, and the
jObbers, bear ample testimony to the
fact that, while there has been a Strin-
gency in the money market for the past
year, outstanding credits have been
promptly met, and the total of individual
Indebtedness is really less to-day than
it was year ago. This has been
noticeable in the land contracts made a
year ago, and where second and third
payments were due this year. But few
instances are cited where there has been
default in these payments. In the
