meate the state in all directions, start
ing from and terminating at this
point This will evidently make it
the wholesale center for all the mer-
chants of country bound to show more
wealth within the next ten years than
any country of the same age on earth
Another thing which adds greatly to the
future prospects of this young city is
the enterprise and vim of her people.
They are the 'gemS'' of the Eastern
and Southern population, who have
found the plOdding ways of the old
home too circumscribed for their ambi-
tion, and have come to the great "alkali
desert" to make their homes and
fortunes. There is nothing slow
nor slothful about them. no drones in
Fargo's hive. Time and time again
they have demonstrated their ability to
grasp and carry forward any enterprise
which judicions Judgment dictated, and
they have in every instance sprung to
the wheel and given it whirl forward,
and success has always followed. This
has been the result of the enterprise,
unity and good fellowship of her people.
They all came here to win, and are
bound to do it. We speak of this be-
cause in the building UP of city much,
and we might say all, depends upon
the unity of sentiment among the
people. Here it is fully demon
Strated that in union there is strength.
But now to what Fargo has already
done. With that reverence which
should actuate all men, we first turn to
the churches, the forerunners and ac-
compartments of all civilization. The

THE HEADQUARTERS HOTEL
is one of the oldest and best known car
avanSarieS in the Northwest. Very few
people ever visited Fargo who did not
stop at this pleasant retreat for the tired
and weary. 1t is now under the man
agement of j. Lamont, one of the most
popular landlords in America. This
hotel contains 100 rooms, is very con-
veniently situated on the platform OF
the Northern Pacific railroad and has
been growing more and more popular
as the years advance.
THE WASHINGTON HOUSE
is beautifully-arranged brick cottage,
erected especially with an eye to the
convenience and comfort of guests. 1t
is 6OXS0, of solid brick, tastily finished
both outside and in, with fine yards and
one of the best barns in the city. The
proprietor, r. A. O'Brian, is a whole
soued, genial landlord, knows his buSl-
ness thoroughly, and allows no person
to leave his house dissatisfied. The
landlady, Mrs. O'Brian, is equally hap
py in making every one feel happy.
She is the worst enemy to a spot OF dirt
who resides in Fargo; consequently
everything is as tidy about the house as
though just prepared for wedding
feast This hotel is most deseryedly en-
joying large business.
THE COLUMBIA.
This hotel has only been in operation
few months, but has already been re-
ceived and accredited place among
the leading hotels of the country. 1t
was built by a syndicate of our business
men, and placed in running order by the
lamented Kissner, who met his death
just as he was about ready to receive
guests and enjoy what he long desired
"a tirSt-clasS hotel. 1t is brick struct-
ure, built upon the most APP
proved plans, with tiled floors; and
as nearly fire-proof as it was
possible to make it. Its capacity is. $50
guests. 1t is heated by steam, has cleo
trio lights, freight and passenger ele-
vators. fire escapes. and all the nec-
essary arrangements foI the safety, con-
venience and comfort of guests. The
culinary department is in charge of the
most accomplished cooks, and the dim
ing room superb in every particular.
The present manager, Mr.. George A.
Putnam, is an accomplished gentleman,
a splendid landlord, genial and kind to
all, and is fast gaining favor with the
travelling public.

THE DAILY REPUBLICAN,.
1t is now little over two years since
j. j. Jordan took the management Of
this institution, and raised it from a
mediocre sheet to a bright, enterprising
paper, full OF the latest news, gossip
and solid editorial matter. Many sup
posed that when Mr.. Jordan undertook
this task he had in hand job too eX-
tensive and a path too well filled with
difficulties and dangers to make it a sue
cess. Some even doubted his ability to
handle so large an enterpri Sc. But
time has developed the fact that he was
fully equal to the emergency. and that
his financial ability, coupled with long
exp erience in the business, has enabled
him to bring order out of chaos
and place the establishment on a
paying basis. For twenty-one years
Mr.. Jordan was engaged on the Mime
apolis Tribune, dating way back to the
Atlas and Col. King. During this time
he gained fund of experience, which
coupled with his fine natural ability,
has led to success. A few weeks ago
he moved from his old uncomfortable
quarters to large, commodious brick
building ON Broadway, where he has
every convenience for his newspaper
j, work and large jobbing establishment.
1t is not only fine location, but the
building is all one could ask-solidly
built. plenty of room, splendidly
lighted, and superb in every respect
Mr.. Jordan is still a young man, and
will eventually rise to that distinction
among newspaper men to which his
abilities entitle him.

They Have the Pluck and
Capital to Make 1t a
Great Center
Of Traffic and Commerce for
the State of North
Dakota.
Some Of the Edifiees that
Indicate What Has
Been Done.

Fargo is situated on the west bank of
the Red River of the North, is now
about thirteen years old, and contains
within the corporate limits nearly. if
not quite, 5000 people. The location is
the center of the justly celebrated Red
River valley, rich in ali that goes tomake
wealth and prosperity for those who in
vest in its productive soil, or engage in
business to supply the demands of its
constantly increasing population. Sur
rounded as Fargo is by this immense
tract of the world-famed No. hard
wheat-producing soil, and likewise a
country already famous for her cattle
raising facilities, it would be remark
able if she did not prosper, and in a few
years become, not only the leading city
of the valley, but of both DakotaS. She
now stands at the head of the list, and
it would seem apparent that this su-
premacy will always be maintained un-
til Fargo becomes the great city of
the Northwest. Besides the advan-
tages of the richest and best produc-
ing soil of the world, she holds
the railroad key to all North Da-
kota. The railroads now constructed

Fargo then had about 1900 population.
No one but the doughty editor, Maj. A.
W. Edwards, supposed it would exist
two months, but from that day to this
there never has been missed single
issue. Floods, fire and strikes have at
tackled the institution; and, besides this,
boycotting has been. attempted, but all
combined have not been sufficient to dis
turb the equinimity of the now famous
Argus. which graceS the table of nearly
every business man in Fargo and the
Northwest every morning. The Weekly
Argus was started at the same time.
The first issue of the Sunday was in
January, 1881. The institution is
now owned and controlled by
