-Mandan Pioneer: Mr.. W. G. Tubbs. u
Fargo, the we'll now travelling man, says the
volumn of trada in North Dakota for tho first

history Of the state. He says there is one thing
that speaks we'll for the state, that is. that tho
wholesale dealers in New York, Boston and
other wholesale ceuters in tho cast are sending
men to work all the towns In the state. He
says, however, that the North Dakota merch-
ants are showing tendency to buy from the
Minneapolis a:d st. Paul merchants who nob'y
stood ty them when times were not rs good as
thcy are now.
Fargo Forum: There is better land, near
er markets III almost every county in North
Dakota outside the Great Red River valley
than in Tho Sisseton reservation. Why d,n't
these land seekers haye litlo sense? Go to
Sargent, Ransom, rickey, Emmons Logan,
Kidder, Burleign, S.utsman, Foster, Wells or
Eddy, Barnes, Benson, Ramsey, Steele, or
Nelson, there are homes for Thousands Of
seekers, as free as air and as fair as in tie
garden Of the gods. Don't waste time going
to reservations and locating along with
''breeds" but come to US and live with in.elli-
gent, happy ard contented people.
