PUBLIC iSSTITUrlNNS.

The county hospital and poor house. "A
fine brick and stone building. which cost
about $1,000 has few rivals in the
state. 1t will probably be suited
for the purpose for which it
was erected for several years.
The general hospital, erected by local
physicians at a cost Of $4,000, is one of
the leading public institutions erected
during the year. 1t has proved to be an
admirably conducted hospital, presided
over by capable physicians and pains
taking nurses.
The Valeria library. opened early in
the year, deserves more than passing no
tice. 1t is well stocked with selected
books and deserves patronage from all
who delight in reading. Like the opera
house it was built by some public spir-
tied citizens and is an adornment to the
city.

But the enterprise which more en-
phatically voices the claims of Great
Falls to an eminence not attainable by
any other city in Montana. and which
is prominent among the notable struc-
lures Of the year is the great smclter Of
the Boston e. Montana company. Though
not entirely completed it may justly be
put down as marking the progress of the
city during the year 1891. II no other
improvement had been made in the city
during the time these vast works would
emphasize a progress as tlattering to our
people as it is indicative of the faith of
those who inaugurated it in the advan-
tages Of the great water power at com
mand.
The weekly tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1891-1894, 1892-01-02

Great Falls is rightly named the phe-
nomenal city. 1t was a wilderness much
less than a decade ago. 1t is today the
third city in population and the first in
Importance in the state. In marking its
progress for the year one is at a loss to
count the links in the chain which
measures the whole. Additions are be-
ing daily made. The seasons mark no
halt in the improvements. In winter as
well as in summer the sound Of the
hammer and saw is heard. Even now
as the old year is being rung out and the
new year ushered in the carpenter and
painter are at work. The past years
progress is being continued in the
present. 1t will ever be thus, and he
who writes the progress Of Great Falls
during the year 1892 will find no break
in the continuous chain OF material i'm
provement where he can write the word
"finis."
The weekly tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1891-1894, 1892-01-02

Not by any means the least among the
enterprises completed in the city during
the year is the great saw mill built by
the Butte ~ Montana Co. This immense
plant, capable of turning out daily l25,-
900 feet of lumber. records still another
step in the city's upward march. 1t is
kept busy to meet the demands made
upon 1t.

REAL ESTATE.

The real estate market has experienced
no tremendous boom during the year.
The transactions in realty have been car
RED on in a careful, conservative business
manner totally devoid OF any attempts
to suddenly raise or lower the price of
property by booms or scares. Sensa-
tiOnal rumOrs have had no effect on the
price OF town or suburban property, the
demand has been about the same every
day during the year. So far as the ques-
ton Of sensational reports to effect the
price OF property. there have been none.
Something like SGOO,WW worth of town
property has been rold during the year
and about S275.0OO Of acre property.
A number of deals in large acre tracts
have been recorded and real estate men
report a good trade in outside property
for the whole year. Large transactions
in improved property were consummated
and M or two big deals in Central ave
ue property are now on foot. Real estate
men say property is cheaper today than
ever before because the advancement
already made by Great Falls and the
important improvements to be carried
on this year al not fail to greatly en-
nance the value Of town and adjacen-
property in the early spring. Two adj

THE YEARS

Every good business man will take an
inventory of his stock on hand at the
close Of the year, balance his books, and
see how he stands with the world. And
it is IN keeping with the fitness of things
that those interested in the growth and
prosperity of a town or city should
look it over and take an account of
what has been done in the way Of i'm
provemcnts and of adding wealth to it.
The task is a pleasant n where sub
stantial progress can be noted and the
future is radiant with well grounded
hopes.
This task is an agreeable one to the
'rRIBuNE. 1t can look back over the
year now closed and note a growth of
Great Falls as substantial as it is Halter

The building of Il round house and re-
pair shops in West Great Falls is another
enterprise by the Great n, rthcrn for
the dead year. Their building marks
an important step in the progress of the
place toward the high rank which it will
ultimately occupy among the great cities
in the west.

BANKING FACILITIES,

The banking facilities of Great Falls
have kept pace with the city's advance

today the town can boast Of banking

entire approval of General Count Won Wal
