1t is not claimed by conscientious cit
liens that there has been any great act
iVity in real estate transactions for the
past few years, in so far as the sale of
lots in st. Paul is concerned, but it is
confidently asserted that there is a de-
cided firmness in the market as we'll as
an assurance that the coming year will
develop greater activity than has been
known in this line since the boom days.
This statement is backed by something
more tangible than theory of the specu-
lative order. The mere fact that the
manufactures now,under course of COM
pletion and contracted to be established
and put i'll operation early in the
year will bring several thousand
working men and their families
to the city to fill homes that
must be provided to a large extent by
building them assures renewed activity
in realty circles. 1t IS not mere guess
wc'k to say that the population Of st.
Paul will be increased by at least 90
600 during the coming year. 1t is eSti-
mated by conservative men that this
number will be added to the population
when the men and the families of such
as Will be employed in the new fac
tories are domiciled. In addition to this,
the increase by reason Of the factory
contingent will bring more butchers
and bakers and candlestickmakers to
the city to provide for the needs Of the
addition to the manufacturing pOpula-
ton. Then there will be an influx of
strangers that are constantly pouring
into cities, to say nothing of the in
crease by births. This general influx
will naturally cause active trading III
real estate.
In considering the prospective move.
ment in dirt, it should be considered
that the real estate exchange is doing
much to make the movement active.
Information is being sent out 10 the
world at large by this organization, and
inquiries are being received by it that
give abundant proof that the real estate
men will have to WOrkthe. coming year.
j. G. Wall, secretary of the real estate
exchange. has been collecting informa-
ton that demonstrates that st. Paul. is a
desirable place to invest in town lots
as well as in improved property. He
has learned from trustworthy sources
that the prices of unimproved lots i'll the
business center as well as residence
quarters of St. Paul are below the prices
of most of the cities of equal prominence
all over the country; that the returns
from investments here are better than
in most cities: that rents here are fair
as to rates, and that the tenants are good

investors in lots or acres. The frmnes
in the prices of real estate is another
convincing argument that investors ana
owners are confident.
The fact that st. Paul is the banking,
commercial and manufacturing metrop-
oils of the Northwest, and that the city
has passed the point OF any possibility
of recediug in Importance or prosper
ity, gives the country confidence, and
will lead to investments that cannot be
expected to 90 to other cities. The fact
that real estate Is lower than in other
cities of the same, or many of larger size,
makes investment therein safe as well
as being sure of profitable retnrn, as All
investment. When the Business Mems
union, the Commercial club and the
Real Estate exchange get these facts
before the public. there will be no doubt
left that st. Paul Will grow with a "a
pidity that will open the eyes of people
in other cities and countries.

pay. All this shows why men from the
East bring their capital to st. Paul to
invest in property that surely will en-
nance in value, or will make returns IN
rents that are equivalent to much
higher rate of interest than can be
secured by investments in the East.
The fact that Eastern capital is con-
stantly making investment IN improved
real estate in this city, or III putting up
buildings, shows that there is confidence
in the city's future.
H. S. Fairchild. president of the Real
Estate exchange, speaks very conf
IDENTIFY of the prospects for the near
future. He asserts that all the circum-
stances point toward very active era
in real estate movements. In speaking
Oh the subject. he said:
''Since the year 1882 there have been
repeated cycles in business activity and
depression in England. There have
been similar cycles in this country dur
ing the present century There were
depressions in business in 1927, 1881,
1916, 1857, and again in 1878 and 1857.
The intervals between these depressions
in business have varied as 10 length.
These depressionS have been less fire.
quent of late years. They have all been
followed by renewed prosperity. The
depressions usually last about five years
growing less stringent. until they
are followed by a few years Of
activity, and then followed b.
two or three years of wild
speculation. which are followed by set
thing up Of business accounts and a
stringency in money matters. During
the periods Of forced economy the sur
plus products of the country are con-
sumed. Then the factories start up at
full capacity, and full tide of prosper
ity again ensues. The latest depression
i'll local business began in 1887. The
prosperity is beginning to come our way
again. Thousands of homes have been
built in St. Paul in the past few years,
and a great many millions of dollars
have been invested in business blocks.
The filling up of the churches, the in
creased attendance in the public schools
attest that there has been a large influx

suburbs is sometimes lost sight of in
the active business Of the home city.
A striking example of business
growth is seen in South st. Paul, where
every enterprise that has been started
during the five years OF its history con-
times actively at work. and the aggre-
cate products of the various enterprises
there amounted to SO, 900 during
1892. The figures were obtained from
the parties mentioned. as follows:

of people in ST. Paul in the past few
years to fill up the houses built. From
this it is seen that we will need new
buildings for the throngS that will come
here when the new factories are ready
for operations"
OF late years the entire country tribu-
tary to st. Paul has filed up rapidly.
Thousands of new farms have been put
in operation, and great towns are being
built up. which will be feeders to this
city. The railroad facilities have been
greatly expanded, and as consequence
of all this the wholesale trade OF the
city has greatly extended. The efforts
of the business mems union for the past
year in securing number of new and
important industries, add to the argu-
mentS previously mentioned that real
estate transactions will this year Surpass
large proportions.
Letters are being received from men
in the East, and more especially from
men in Europe, who already have in
vestments here, making inquiries as to
real estate. Many thousands of foreign
ers will come to the worlds fair, and
they will be surprised at the magniti-
cence of our cities and country and their
rapid growth. Many of them will come
to st. Paul, and they will be amazed at
our prosperity and that Of the North
west. When they learn the rate of in
come on Investments, they will place
their money with us, knowing that it
will bring them in returns far in excess
of what they get at home. Then. owing
to the disturbed condition of Europe,
many of the people there will see that it
Is to their advantage to invest here, and
even come here to live. am confident,
after careful review of the situation.
that we are just starting on wave OF
substantial and active prosperity"
That real estate men generally believe
hat the present movement i'll real es-
ate will grow to large proportions, is
tested by the fact that they are buster
than they have been for.years. They
are receiving many inquiries. and are
listing new property and getting in
readiness to accommodate all coming

Fewer Permits, but Larger Aggre-
gate-Demand Is Metropolitan.
1t goes without saying that the i'm
preston has popularity obtained in st.
Paul that the building the past season
has fallen far short of the average. But
this is a fallacy. While the total amount
of building permits issued has been
somewhat under the number for the
previous year. the aggregate amount OF
structures erected has exceeded the
mark made in 1891 by handsome mar
gin. This IS peculiarly gratifying.
There has been a notable stringency in
the money markets land this is financial
condition that invariably cripples build
ing almost before it touches other en-
terprises. 1t is also valid testimonial
TO the confidence enjoyed by capitalists
in the future growth and prosperity OF
the capital city. There can be no more
reliable indicator.

St Paul Park,
a beautiful suburban town of about

manufacturing plants, such as Ii. A.
MuckIe Manufacturing company, manu-
facturers of sleighs and carriages. This
firm has done the largest business dur

the competition with the head of the
lakes is keen, but ST. Paul is we'll
fitted to supply that district in some
lines, especially of manufactured ar
tices.
Eastern cities formerly did consider
able business in st. Paul territory. but
the alertness of st. Paul business men,
their complete lines of goods and their
contentious against unjust dlscrlmina-
ton in the matter Of freight rates have
enabled them to overcome the outside
competition. Ibis has been particularly
true during the past two years, since
the organization of the Jobbers' union,
which has been a powerful factor in
preserving the commercial dignity of
the city. 10 it. together with the Cham
her of Commerce, the Board of Trade,
the Business Mems union, the Mime
sofa club, and other valuable organlZa-
tons, much of the welfare of the city is
due. They are progressive, corrective
and aggressive, and their power is well
recognized in the commercial world.

increase. ~ In "o' NJ
In speaking of the prospects for the
coming year, the merchants, one and
ALL are very sanguine of an excellent
trade True the price of wheat is low,
in comparison with the prices OF former
years, but the resources of the North
west are so varied that the people, gen
orally speaking, can turn from one pur-
suit TO another, if they see fit. In what
used to be exclusively wheat districts
large interests in live stock have been
developed. The woods and the mines
also show diversity of resources. The
merchants we're agreeably surprised
last year by the increase III trade. They
did not expect SO great volume to fol
low the remarkably good season of 1891.
There has been little delay i'll making
some of the collections of late, especially
where country merchants have mad
obligations to Eastern parties, but an
Improvement is noticeable in this item,
and, taken altogether, the prospects are
bright.
