81. PAU. Jan.l. Among guests at the
Merchants are \. y. Towncr and .. W.
Briggs who are registered from Chicago.
The two are largely Interested IN North
Dakota and northern Minnesota. thus
fall and winter they have been in Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois looking up prosper
Gus farmers who desire to move west and
inducing them to locate IN thc northern
of this state and South Dakota.
Early il the fall ToWncr visited fla" sec
ton namrd with about thirty representa-
five farmers from various sections IN
Ohio. Indiana and Illinois. These men
returned home filled with enthusiasm
and admiration for the new country amt
readily corrobo rated the stories of Tia"
enormous crops told of by T"wnrr when
he visited their localities this winter. rs
a result 1000 settlers have been secured
for Red river valley and surrounding
country. u
Said Towncr this morning: "lh"Sr
farmers are all men of means, who Will
briuu considerable stock into the roun-
try and will have enough capital to sue
cnssfnlly establish Themselves on new
farms. They will locate in no particular
section but will scatter ali over the
country. where we hay" secured gonh
farms for them. They will move carly
in the spring and will bring with them
many farm hands who are badly needed
in this country. We expect to- locate
many more before spring opens.
Il. -. G. Shortridgcof Larimur", pr"sl-
dent of the Dakota Farmers alliance,
was at the Merchants this morning ana
held a conference with TnNn"r ana
Briggs. More settlers and more farm
help Is what We want in North i,ak",a'
said he. The alliance in my state takes
far more interest IN immigration than IN
politics. We want to see farm hands hot
candidates for political Offices, Just now
The offices can take care Of themselves
for the present. We most care Tor
farms and coming crops, which promise
to be fully as heavy, if not heavier Than
thc last one.

Browns Valley Footprints: Stevens
county is to be congratulated on lay
ing secured such an extensive estab=
lishment as the Rockdale Farm Co.,
which has bought large tract Of land
near Wheeler station and stocked it
with over 100 hundred horses, most of
which are pure bred English Shires.
The company has moved their entire
outfit from Illinois to Stevens county
to be nearer their principal market
which must fer yoars yet be III the
Northwest, and to secure cheaper
land than the high priced real estate
of Illinois. 1t is credit to their
business sagacity, that they choose 50
good a county as Stevens, and credit
to IL. S. Judson and other rustlers
that the desirability Of that county
was made apparent to them. We
consider the advent Of this company
an advantage to every county in this
vicinity, indirectly as we'll as of di-
rect advantage to Stevens county.

Wall Paper.

1t is well known to our readers that
the TRIBUNE has always advocated the
patronizing of our local merchants
and business men. 1t is the right
way to help along a town in which
you reside. Going away from home
to purchase goods when you can buy
just as cheap in your own town is in
deed foolish practice. Take, for in
stance, the article Of wall paper: Par
ties who go away for it make big
mistake, as that article can be pur-
chased here as low or lower than it
can be bought at retail il the cities,
when the expense Of transportation is
taken into consideration. Hulburd &
Co. have just received dray loads Of
the latest and most fashionable styles
Of paper which they offer their GUS
toners at such prices that no one can
reasonably complain. An examination
Of their stock will convince anyone
that we have not misstated the facts,

The New Elevator.

Work on the construction OF the
new Interstate elevator was com
menced on the 18th Of February and
was completed yesterday. Work was
stopped for two days, making Is
working days. Taking into consider
alton the fact that there were several
days of cold, rough weather, the
work.of construction has been accom-
pllshed in a very short time.
The elevator is one Of the best ar
ranged and most convenient in the
state. The approaches to itare handy
the grade being slight and easy for a
team. Tie platform is furnished
with sliding doors, which can be shut
while grain is being unloaded, in case
OF cold Or stormy weather. Eleyating
will be done by horse power, making
the risk from fire less than if done by
steam. The storage capacity Of this
elevator is 10000 bushels of wheat.
@. M. Sharp, who has had charge
of the construction Of this elevator, is
an experienced man in this line Of
work and thoroughly understands his
business.
Ole Lee, who had charge Of the old
elevator, will have charge Of the new
one, and is now ready to receive grain.

A Painful Accident.

Last Friday morning, on alighting
from the train and while Rev. Mother
Joseph was cropping her way across
the depot platform it being very dark
at the time, no lights being lighted -
she had the misfortune to fall over
one Of the trucks which had been
carelessly left standing in the way,
which fall resulted in the dislocat-
ing of her shoulder. Were it some
one else beside our esteemed Rev.
Mother to whom the accident hap
pened the railroad company would be
made to pay dearly for it. We are
very sorry to learn that it will be many
weeks before Rev. Mother Joseph will
regain the use Of her arm.
