REAL ESTATE REVIEW.

what Was Done During the Past Week
Heavy sales.
North side property was In active de-
mand the past week and the best portion
of the business was done there. West side
property was also dealt ln but not 10 any
great extent. T.. w. Bach is having a
handsome residence erected adjoining S. +.
Ilauser's. The foundation Is about com.
pleted. When finished II Is estimated the
house will cost between $4,000 and $780,.
600 and will compare fayorably with the
handsomest west side mansion.
The directors of the motor line have un.
der consideration proposition made them
by a representative of the Sprague Electric
company 10 convert their line into an elec-
tric road. Should this be done their pres
ent motive power will undoubtedly be-
used on extensions Of the present line.
The street car company may in the near
future substitute either cable OF electricity
for the horse car line. DIR. Cole Is erecting
three story residence on Grand street. A
great deal OF building Is In progress north
Of the Northern Pacific track. The real
estate men are doing good business.
Porter, Muth N Cox report the past week
as rather more quiet than for some time
past, but lively enough for their purposes.
Their principal sales for the week are
block 300, Bellevue addition TO John r.
Mus ply; two blocks in Highland Park
sixteen lots In Syndicate addition; two
lots in Ming addition % Mrs. Swendeman;
two lots in Hauser addition to Pat X. Camp
bell; four lots In Seymer Park 10 r
Sweeney, and two lots In Bassett addition

Mr. Pickwick took OF his spectacles,

foreman all the while. he mechanically
followed Mr. Perker and the blue bag out

They stopped in side room while Per

token Of outward satisfaction.

THE HELENA UNIVERSITY.


Ii 10 an Assured Fact. but Means are
Required to Build 1t.
The university for Helena has almost
ceased TO be question of mere possibility.
Its desirability is quite generally conceded,
and that 1t will greatly enhance the value
OF surrounding property is evident from
the eagerness of real estate men to secure
II for this or that locality. Broad and In
yiting acres are now being placed at the
disposal of the trustees, and the matter OF
q favorable location Is no longer question
of possibility. "Now," said one, 'if few
more OF our usually wide-awske business
men could see just little way down the
line Of the coming years, and could meas
ure the benefits certain 10 accrue from such
an institution. the remaining cash sub
scripiions necessary 10 make this an as
sured fact would be speedily forthcoming.
Public spirited citizens Frequently as they
are called upon for charitable and be-
nevOlent purposesl should not wait 20 be
impOrtuned 10 aid such an enterprise as
this. IL Is not asking something for
nothing" but proposes for little 10 be-
stow great deal. The trustees are 20
meet again in this city on the 10Th, when
they should be- able not only TO fix the par
| ticular site, but 10 put the building under
| contract without delay. lt IL not expected
that the stately edfice projected can be
built In 80 short time, but ewing"
sufficient 10 shelter the institution at its be-
ginning, is expected TO be ready for oc.

OFFICIAL PAPER or LEWIS AM
CLARKE COUNTY.
Woodville Republican. (Woodville, Miss.) 185?-current, 1889-05-04


9 Even these gentlemen cannot
be kept at their present salaries, but
will be carried to olhar States in the
future. A few more such expert
ments and radical changes viii break
up the institution, or reduce it to a
seeond-rate college. A man or COM
modify is worth what he or it will
bring on the market. Mississippi
cannot keep frst-class institutions
unless she pays the same price for
Professors as other States do for the
same grade of talent. The most
important part of any college is a
learned, earnest and competent
Faculty. Why discriminate against
the Faculty of the A. & NJ. College?
Why should not the State be equally
liberal to all her institutions? Are
they all not supported by taxation?
Is there any good reason why the
SONS of farmers should have second
rate teachers, and the sons of others
have i~rst-cIass teachers? The State
should hold the scales equally and
treat all her sons alike.
The best interests Of the State are
concerned in a proper support Of
this college. 1t does not affect the
farming class alone. Intelligent use
of fertilizers and improved imple-
ments and methods in agriculture is
not only the hope of the State but
the necessity of profitable farming
upon by far the greater portion Of
our lands in the future. We think
10 greater blow at the welfare of our
people could be aimed than by
starving this institution out or by
taking indirect steps to cripple
and contract its usefulness.
