WEST END LETTER.

West End, July 1S.-Miss Mallory
entertained few friends at her hos
pitable home this week in honor of
Miss Barnett, one of West Ends most
charming young ladies, who has just
returned from an extended visit to
friends in Eastern Texas. The affair
was very delightful and was greatly
enjoyed. 1t was a new creation in
the social world and was called an
empire party"
A sociable will be given at the resi-
dence of Rev. Mr.. Carter Tuesday
night for the benefit of the Methodist
church. Several talented young la
dies of West End will participate and
add much interest to the program.
Visitors from the city will also be
present and contribute to the pro-
gram. Mrs. Pinson, who is arrang-
ing the affair, says it will be sue
cess, which is sufficient assurance
that every one who attends will have
a pleasant time.

over the residents of other suburbs
in the enjoyment of lie.

Minnesota municipalities tributary to
the Twin Cities are prospering to a
greater degree than for many years.
Learning of the fact a few days ago,
the Clio b e wrote to leading bankers
in many cities asking if they really
were more prosperous than for some
time, and requesting a statement as
to the causes of growth. The letters
printed below over the signatures of
prominent men are very gratifying.
They not only indicate an unusual de-
gree of activity and hopefulness, but
that many communities are diversifying
their industries with pleasing results.
Men who were growing poor raisM
wheat have learned that the road to
wealth is studded with the COW, the
creamery, the porker and the potato.
A perusal of the following letters can
but lead the reader to the conclusion
that Minnesota can feed millions of
Americans and yet other millions of
denizens of other lands:

BROWNS VALLEYS WEALTH.
The Tewn Fast Becoming "A Lead
ing Shipping Point.

Special to the Globe.
BROWNS VALLEY, May 16.-Browns VAL
ley. so named, in memory of the brilliant Joe
Brown, the celebrated pioneer Of the new
Northwest, is uniquely located on a rich al
luvial valley, properly called the Great
Divide" or land-hyphen between Lakes Ira
verse and Big Stone, lakes. whose beautiful
retreats are being utilized for summer resorts.
The city corporation extends to the boundary
line separating Minnesota from South Da-
kota. 1t is the terminus Of the branch line
of the Great Northern from Norris and there
fore has local advantage over other towns
where the railroad passes through to compet-
ing points.
From its beginning, as an organized embryo
city, it has a steady, and therefore healthy
growth, without any reactions, incident to
forced "booms." Never in its brief history
have its business interests promised so much
as now. It's freighting to and from this point
excels any period of its past. 1t supports
three elevators, aside from several store
houses of the cereals, on smaller scale. Its
commercial trade is good and on the increase.
This spring new trading establishments are
being constructed. All the stores are doing
well. The corporation is developing its
water works, and is soon to erect a massive
hall for public entertainments. Our educa-
tional facilities are of the progressive order.
What adds specially to the attractiveness of
the place, aside from its business improve
ments is the aesthetic taste OF the people at
large, exhibited in beautifying their homes
with gardens and trees and flowers.
Browns Valley is fast becoming a con-
spicuous shipping point for stock Our farm
ers are developing the best bloods of cattle,
horses, sheep and swine. Success on these
lines is most encouraging.

JACKSON, Mimi. May 16. = Jackson, the
county seat of Jackson county, has now
population of 1000, an increase of between
500 and 900 since 1892. Being surrounded by
an excellent farming country, occupied by
thrifty and progressive class of farmers, the
town has had healthy growth and is now
enjoying substantial prosperity. The Jackson
Southern Railway company have their grade
almost finished to Superior, 10. When COM
pleted this town will have connections with
the Burlington road at Superior. To-. and the
Rock Island at Ruthven. The new road is
being built by local business men, and Is to
be completed by July 1. Two new school
houses were built last year. the high school
building at a cost of $26.000. and primary
school on the East side costing about $1,000.
Two steam mills were also erected last sea-
son, one with capacity of 100 barrels and
one of 90 barrels The Jackson Brick COM
pany has recently been organized, and is max
ing a superior quality of brick. This enter
prise gives employment to fifteen hands. Be-
ing division headquarters of the c., M. &
st. p railway, a large number Of trainmen
make this town their home. The roundhouse
of the st. Paul road employs about twenty
hands. One important factor in building up
this town is the Jackson Building and Loan
association. which is now four years old.
This association has given financial aid in the
building of over forty dwelling houses and
has S31, 900 loaned out to our citizens. The
town supports a public library Of 1000 vol
umes, has well-equipped fire department,

SALTWATER SATISFIED
With the Prospects for the Season
of 1896.

Special to the Globe.
SALTWATER, May 16.-The business situ-
alton in this city depends to very large ex-
tent on logging conditions and prices, the log
and lumber industry forming the principal
method for the employment of men and the
distribution of capital. A lively demand for
logs and firm prices always have quickening
effect upon all lines of trade, and a slow mar
ket generally results in the reverse. Although
trife early In the season, it is evident that
log and lumber prices are going to range
high, and Saltwater merchants look forward
to prosperous season. During the hard
times of the past two or three years this city
has experienced its share of reverses and
failures, but business men now look forward
to better times. They know not the reason for
the apparent improvement, except that it lies
in the fact that there will be a large amount
of work on the lake and river this season.
The st. Croix boom has not yet begun sorting
logs, and, as a consequence, several mills here
and elsewhere are idle, but when the boom
does get started hundreds of men will be
pressed into service.
Considerable building is being done here
this season. A number Of residences are now
in process of construction and several busi-
ness houses will be built before fall. The
city is steadily increasing in size and pros
perity, but before Saltwater can regain all of
its lost prestige 1t will be necessary to have
larger number Of factories. Merchants and
business men here, who have watched the
city grow from It's infancy, are unanimous in
the opinion that the logs now shipped down
river in RATS should be manufactured into
lumber at this point. Hundreds of thousands
of dollars worth of logs float by Saltwater
each season. and the city only reaps the
smallest part Of the benefit derived from
them

our CITY mas not been more signally prosper
Jus turing the last year. than during any of
the ten years last past during all of which
time she has maintained progression along
all the lines of activity and settled resource
which go to make up a corporate community
OF 1--we, substantial and intelligent citizens.
FROM modest little city of about 1000 souls
IN 1850, we have enjoyed a steady and con-
tinuous growth, the official census of 1895
giving our population as 5,0S3. During the
last four or five years there has been largo
influx OF farmers from our own and neigh
boring counties, who, desiring to Law aside
the arduous duties attendant upon the tilling
OF the soil, have either purchased or built
ior themselves, modern. substantial houses
"nere IN tnelr declining years they might
ENJOY their well-earned rest and also furnish
to their children. the advantage offered bv
our excellent schools, which, by the way are
second to none in the state. From this source
we have gained a large number of thrifty and
intelligent citizens.
We cannot boast of a large number of man.
ufacturing interests, to bring and distribute
means among our citizens However tba
few we have, such as brick and tile works
cement works, fax fiber factory, pork pack
ing house, canning and preserving works.
etc., are substantial and prosperous insti-
tutions, furnishing labor at good wages to
large number of men, women and children.
Living, as we do, In the midst of the most
fertile and productive district of the North
west, we must cast aside local conditions
and attribute our prosperity to the general
thrift of the community. Our farmers have
long since learned of the superior advantages
to be derived from diversified farming, and
the majority Of them have acquired, not only
an unincumbered till to their lands, but have
comfortable and conlmodious buildings in
which to house their families and stock and
surplus of funds either In the bank or at
interest. They spend their money freely. in
| useful channels, amongst US, this lending
valuable assistance in the building UP of a
prosperous community. A destructive blow
at the agricultural interests of this section
would be fatal to Austin. Those interests
are our main stay and support. Long may
they continue in their good offices.
