F.G.WINsTON's "REMINISCENCES

The Winston brothers, F. G. and P.
B., came to Minneapolis in 1873, and
w. O. followed them in about 1874.
Born and brought up in Virginia,
state which had suffered everything
during the civil war. they concluded
that the great west would offer bet
ter inducements than the south for
young men without capital, and so
they cast their lots here. BY 1878
they had begun to conquer fortune,
and had $4,000 saved. After the first
few years they became contractors,
and they have followed that business
to the present day.
"Our first railroad contract" said
F. G. Winston to T h e Journ a / :,
was for the building of the tracks
back Of the flour mills, at the falls.
One of our first large dirt contracts
was for filling in the approaches to
the second suspension bridge. The
years between 1878 and 1878 were
pretty hard on all contractors in the
northwest. and especially those who
were doing railroad work. The Jay
Cooke failure In the first named year
brought every railroad enterprise in
this part Of the country to a stand
still, and there 1t remained until about
the time T h Journ a was found
ed. The total profit made out Of rail-
road construction from 1873 to 1878
In Minnesota was $4,000, and was for
piece Of regarding near Brainerd.
Our firm in the seventies did a.
great deal of work for the city, We
built a number Of the larger sewers
In what Is now the downtown district,
and we did a great deal of grading
for streets.
If men in the late seventies could
have known what the city was to be
In the future, many of them could
have made splendid fortunes in real
estate. I recall that I had an oppor-
tun1ty In those times to buy the cor
ner of Sixth street and Nicollet ave-
nue., loo feet on Nicollet. across from
the Plymouth corner Of to-day, for
$4,000. I thought that the price was
too high and that the property was
too far out. Had I bought it, I should
have soon been one of the richest men
In the city, for that property began
to increase in value during the early
boom days, and was worth fortune
almost before I knew it. I did make

dicted that I would lose on the invest
ment. He called my attention to the
fact that the best judge Of real estate
in the city had declined to purchase
at the figure named. and asked me
why I had been so foolish as to pur-
chase. His question was the more
pertinent because I was not supposed
to know a great deal about realty
values. I began to think that posi-
bly, I had made a mistake, but, Of
course, it was too late to reconsider.
After holding the property for less
than year, I sold it for $4,000. That

one real estate venture, however, and
it paid me very we'll. After a good
deal of deliberat1on, bought, for $12,-
900, the old Westminster church prop
erty, on Fourth street, where the Ven
dome hotel now stands. It had been
on the market for some time at that
figure, and w. w. McNair, and sew
eral Of the best known property hold
ers of that time, had declined to in
vest. I finally bought. A few days
after the deal had been closed, met
Captain Jacob Schaffer, one Of the
prominent men Of that time, who pre-

got under way"
Mr.. Winston agrees with other old
citizens with whom T h j UT n a
has talked about the 1878 period in
saying that there were then no signs
Of the wonderful development which
was about to begin. It was the last
year Of the panic Of '73, and business
was not very lively in any Of its
branches. The low ebb Of railway
construction has already been referred
to. The merchants of the city were

doing the best they could, but none
of them knew what the next few years
would bring forth. All Of them had
abundant faith in the city's ultimate
future, based on the water power, but
that the year 1879 was to witness the
beginning Of a movement which was
to bring Minneapolis into rank with
the great cities Of the country by the
close Of the century, nobody could
foresee. The year 1878 was a time
of waiting for something to turn up.

City Marshal Applewhite RESIGNS.

To the People OF the City Of BrOokhayen:
| have rendered my resignation to
the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of
this city and in thus vacating the office
of Marshal, to which position have
been twice honored by the suffrage of
my fellow citizens, / desire to extend
my sincere thanks to one and all for
their generous support and confidence.
l have been solicited to stand for the
office of Sheriff of this county, which
solicitations are in accord with my
own ambition, and numerous friends
throughout the county have assured
me that my election is more than
probable. There is always, in the
breast of every human being, a laud-
able desire to rise higher in any field
of endeavor, as every general State
election will demonstrate, and the fiat
tering assurances of my friends, with
this desire to aid, caused me to seek to
be the chief police officer of the county
instead of the city, with it's attendant
broader duties and greater emoluments.
The time has come when feel it my
duty to surrender the trust confided to
my keeping and give my undivided
time and attention to the furtherance
of my candidacy. To attempt to hold
the Office of Marshal would be an in
justice to the good people of this city,
and to my friends and supporters in
the county and in the city. l wish to
make this explanation of the step I
have taken and respectfully request
the voters and people of Brookhaven
to give me their support if, in their
opinion, they think I am capable of
fulfilling the duties of the office of
Sheriff. have served in the position
both as deputy and as Sheriff and am
familiar with all of it's duties, which
