MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. l, '92

! MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. l, w.
| EDITOR TRIBuNE: In this commu-
nication we had thought of looking
backwards" for nine years A great
change has come over the Forest
City" for such we choose to call it.
In that length of time it has added
one-third to it's population and has
made rapid strides in coming to the
front as one of the finest towns in all
the Northwest. Then we occupied a
little cottage on "Piety HILL" from
where we used to affix our "nom de
plume" to communication for the TRI-
BUNE. Then small forest trees were
planted around the lot; now they are
the most beautiful shade trees in all
the town. Then wolf wolff would
occasionally appear at our door, but
as they were very docile and as we
kept ferocious dog, we were never in
any fear of being molested, Now up
on the same lot whole family of
wolves (Wolffs) have taken up their
abode. Just across the street then
lived Postmaster Torpey, where now
resides one of Morris princely dry
goods merchants. Then our beloved
pastor and his wife, Bro. Fowler, lived |
on the corner diagonally across. Now
the same residence is occupied by a
family that we trust will notDeKay for
at least the next generation. Then
we had something to spur (Spurr) us
on, on the next corner to the north.
Now we have something to spur us on
when around our own home. Then
the heavy dry goods merchants, Wolff
& Wells, resided on the hill. Now
but one remains just on the hill. Then
there was living we'll (Wells) on the
hill. Now it has disappeared. Then
Bro Griswold had nice little home
here. Now it has been purchased,
he buildings enlarged and improved,
md inhabited by the only Smith in
III the west. How strange that name
hould have been obliterated in so
hort time, but the Smiths must go. S
Nondrous changes have been wrought j
n that family during the last century. c
Then DR.. Sutherland, Kenner and 7
Ioore lived a little farther back on G
he boulevard. The DR.. and family /
till remain, while the other two places g
re occupied by the Hon. Fl. H. Wells v
nd Judge Brown, who changed his I
esidence from "Poverty HILL g
During our residence in Morris the t
Winters were very severe and at times c
We thought of emigrating to the a
'uther lands, but the Moore we med b
lated upon it the more we thought Y
7e had better remain in the invigora- t
ing climate of the Northwest, and
specially in Morris, as things were
enerally very prim (Pimm) on the
i'll. A number have passed away, q
ut others have come to take their Il
laces, and so it will ever be. G

The bridge across the Pomme de
Terre river, near the race course, was
in danger last Friday of being dam
aged, if not carried away. The river
was SO high that it cut a passage
through the road ca this side of the
bridge. fortunately Judge Husevold
came along, saw the danger, hurried
to town and reported the facts to
Commissioner Dye, who Immediately
engaged Mr.. Caswen to repair the
brsak and he did SO; Judge, please ac-
sept the thanks of the people of Nor
ris for your timely warning.

The Pioneer Press reporter has this
to say of the Stevens county exhibit
at the state fair: "The Stevens county
exhibit is in charge of q committee
composed wholly of women from the
town of Morris. In the midst of this
display is a banner showing an i'm
mense rooster made wholly Of horti-
cultural products. Even considering
the rough and ungainly nature of the
material, the great rooster is we'll
formed and worthy of the admiration
bestowed upon it," The Minneapolis
journal says: eff the Stevens county
exhibit does not receive special pre-
MUM the committee will have failed
to recognize the enterprise and origi-
nalty of the people of Morris, who
have sent delegation composed en-
tirely of ladies to arrange and display
the field and farm products"

The Races.

The general public will be pleased
to hear that the success Of the fall
meeting of tine driving park is already
an assured fact. There are now nine
ty-two entries filed with Secretary
Darling in the nine trotting and pac-
ing races, and he informs us that he
received word that there had been
five more entries mailed not yet re-
ceived. This is safe to say that the
trotting and pacing classes will aver
age over ten entries per class, and
Morris never had such a grand class
of horses at any previous meeting.
Among the PAGERS are such flyers
as Billie Gault, 2:20; Tommy Lynn,
2:154; Prince Mae, 2:231. Among the
trotters are Moody, 2:231; Michael,
2:291; Broncho, 2:35; Allie Graham,
$50; Billie Gaines, 2:42; Capitola,
2:244; Allie Gaines, 2:2S; Dick French,
2:26; Omar, 2:25A; Buckshot, 2:sO;
Stratferd, 2:27a, and twenty others
better than 2:4O.
The association will adhere to its
usual custom of making first day red
ribbon day and all ladies and children
will be admitted to the grounds free.
All ladies entering the grand stand
viii be presented with souvenir.
The driving park officials have used
every effort to givethe people grand
exhibition of speed and hope for
liberal patronage.
The track has been regarded since
the July meeting; the grandstand has
been rooted and rendered pleasant,
and every facility for getting to the
ground has been attended to. Buses
will leave the Metropolitan Hotel
every five minutes, and the fare will
be but ten cents each way. The debt
of the association is over 800, and an
appeal is made to the citizens
Of the county to turn out and assist
the association to the extent of at least
one days paying attendance. 1

The size Of the chief buildings is
prodigious. One may be pardoned a
few adjectives in talking about them,
for the like was never seen in the
world before. Take the main build
ing for Manufactures and Liberal
Arts, and you have one of the wonders
of the world-the largest building
ever built under one roof. It covers
thirty acres Of ground, and the CALLER
les make Ia acres more of floor space
for exhibits. 1t is three times larger
than st. Peters Cathedral in Rome,
and four times larger than the Roman
Coliseum. Twenty buildings like the
Chicago Auditorium could be placed
on it's floor, and the iron and steel
in it's roof would build two Brooklyn
bridges. The lumber in it represents
1000 acres of pine. The dedication
ceremonies will be held here, when
$4,000 people can be seated in the
building.

use of any sort of fireworks. During

dedication next month, the admission
will be so cents.

But the buildings are not only large
but of great beauty. Of the twenty
two millions of dollars which the
fair will cost, eight millions go into
the buildings alone. The architects
have taken advantage of this outlay,
and the results are marvellously beau
tiful. The buildings look like marble,
being covered with a remarkable com
position of plaster, cement and fibre
called "staff.' The columns, statues,
emblematio figures, designs of every
imaginable shape and size, are Law
ished SO profusely on the structures
that one in bewilderment fancies him
self to be in a garden of the gods, sur

Jas. H. Brownies Theatre Co. will
play at Court House hall on Friday

frst-class company and give the

appear. The Fargo Argus says of
this company:
Last night knocked all other nights
silly at the opera house. The Browne
Theatre Co. played to a more than
packed house, several tickets having
to be cashed as no place could be
found for standing room. The COM
pany team-Alice Marble and J..

audience were kept roaring at their
funny antics. The songs between
acts were as usual a great success and
there were no waits.

On Saturday last Oluf Johnson
came to town with load of -four
from the North Star Mill. The water
in the river was so high that he could
not ford it at the mill and was obliged
to come by the way of John Hadley's,
and then to drive through two feet of
water on the Hadley road. Then he
had to come by the way Of the brick
yard, owing to the high water on the
river bottom. This was the route
that was travelled eighteen years ago,

Among the state buildings Mime,
sofa has an excellent location. By fan
the most pretentions among these is
naturally that of Illinois, costing a
quarter of a million. New York and
Pennsylvania occupy prominent posi-
tons facing the Art Hall, The Wom-
ems building ia admirable in design
and location, and the Electrical build
ing speaks volumes for the develop
ment of science. The exposition re-
quires 1900 horsepower of electric
lighting which is ten times the amount
at the Paris exposition of 1889. All
the buildings, except that of the Jap
anese government which is to be pre-
sented to Chicago, are to be removed
within six months after the close OF
the fair.
