Distance, like time, frequently eXalts
the insignificant into Importance and re
ductS the important into insignifcance
For ;.il interested, and whom it is deSir-
;sa!e to interest in Dickinson, this sketch is
intended. In an article of this character
only the more important matter has been
s,uhc.. of, while matters of minor impor-
tancc hav. received only cursory attention

this issue is designed for general circula
ton, We propose to give, briefly and con
c!>c;y as possible, a few OF the advantages
and RESOURCES of the west Missouri Coun
try. Whether we shall succeed in bring
ing Eew manufacturers, merchants, me
chai.!cs or farmers to this locality, we art
still cons ciouS OF the TACT that any writ,
up once printed and given to the wolt

they do in the factories they would be in
dependent in a few years.
Among The many excellent opportuni
be called to Dickinson as a location where
a fortune could be realz d A sugar beet
starch or flax tow factory, linseed oil mill

bounded success here.
A candy factory will find an eXceilcn
trade awaiting them.
