The utter disregard of truth on the
part Of the editor of the Mandan Pioneer
is equalled only by the dishonesty Of the
scissors editor Of that paper who changes
an associated press dispatch to read
"Mandan" instead Of "Bismarck"-in
speaking of the removal of Fort Yates.
Dishonest editing of the telegraph
columns is a ranker fraud thon "pald'
editorials.
Yet there is more demand for city
property this summer than there has
been in the past five years, said Harvey
Harris, the real estate dealer, people
have reached the conclusion that prices
will never be lower and that now is the
time to secure homes, and the demand
for houses at reasonable figures is
greater than the supply. I could sell a
half dozen bouses within the next week
if 1 had them in the right location and
at reasonable prices. The same is true
of the best residence lots, fifty foot lots
between Third and Eighth streets and
Thayer street and Avenue D are in good
demand for present permanent improve
ment and their is practically nothing on
the market at reasonable figures within
the above boundaries. Inquiries from
outside parties for bargains in best i'm.
proved residence and business lots for
speculative purposes are also increasing.
Within the past two weeks a fine corner
on Sixth street has been sold to parties
at Pierre, s. D., and I have just sold an
other fine property on the same street to
a man in Chicago. In my judgment the
tide has turned, and the next six months
will see frmer prices on Bismarck real
estate.
