The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1904-05-31

There are some very impressive
facts In connection with conditions in
Minneapolis at the present time; facts,
which, duly considered, have made it
seem timely to present to T gu r
a | readers and to the people of
other cities and states some little &C
count Of the situation as it bears upon
real estate investment and home build
ing.
Briefly these facts include the gen.
orally healthy commercial conditions
in Minneapolis and the northwest, the
continued growth of the city, the
heavy building operations, the very ex-
tensive interest in real estate both for
home building and business invest
r1ent the moderate cost of building,
the thrift of the people which is cau1-
ing an unprecedented investment lr
homes, the general elevation Of public
sentiment in matters Of architecture
and the identifying of the city and the
constant influx of people, who. after
investigation, have decided that Min.
neapolis Is the ideal place In which te
establish homes.
Some of these topics have beer
touched upon at more or less length

in the columns which follow. No at
tempt has been made to have the
treatment exhaustive; suggestion has
been the chief purpose. If the ideas
presented will turn more minds in the
direction Of Minneapolis as possible
nome, set Minneapolis people to think
ing of the desirability Of home own
ing, and assist in promoting the grow
ing desire for a beautiful city, the
purposes Of the present issue will have
been accomplished.
It may be we'll to add here one sug-
gestion from an old Minneapolitan to
his fellow citizens. If you have estab-
lished your own home in Minneapolis
and have found the city a desirable
place in which to live, do not be selfish
about it, Try to bring some of your
friends from other parts of the coun-
try to the enjoyment Of the same bene-
fits. Mail few copies Of this issue of

here was a. day in Minneapolis

There was q day in Minneapolis
when a store was anything Wnlch
would protect stock Of goods from
the weather and dwelling house was
collection Of lumber, plaster, paint
and hardware combined after the in
dividual ideas Of the carpenter or
owner. A few good buildings were
put up in the early days; but In the
excusable haste to house population
which was growing most extraordln-
arily and to care for the commercial
needs of both city and country, archl-
tectural principles were very common
ly forgotten or thrust aside.
Later this condition was aggravated
by the operations of spectators who
built solely for profit and with tn , any
notion Of present honor or or perma-
nently benefting the community. To
them Minneapolis is indebted for sun
dry rows Of tawdry tenements and
few shaky business structures which
still dot the city. Happily their day
frowns upon the man who builds ILL
looking and fimsy tenements and as
they do not rent well, are costly to
repair, cannot be sold to advantage,
and, further, cannot be mortgaged
above their value and unloaded upon
the mortgagee, they are =, falling III s, INTO o
looking business buildings do not COM
mand good rents, cost both owner and
tenant heavily for insurance, and
prove generally unsatisfactory.
These remarks suggest that the i'm
provement of architectural appearance
in the city is due to the fact that poor
architecture is poor business policy
and that people are beginning to real
lie the truth of this axiom. But while
this Is true, to a considerable extent,
# is not true that Minneapolis people
are 80 entirely material in their ideas
that they are influenced wholly by
their pocket books. Every city lacks
architectural completeness. There
we're plenty Of people among the pi-
oneers Of Minneapolis who mad they
been able would have SATISFIED thelr
tastes by building beautifully from
the very beginning. But the city was
foo new and too poor to do all that 1t
wanted to do. With the accumulation
of wealth and the general diffusion OF
culture and the broadening of ideas
there has been steady growth OF

Progress in Late Years.


Progress in Late Years.
A retrospective glance at the past
decade reveals a very remarkable adj
vance in the architectural tone of the
city. In that time there have arisen
the courthouse and city hall, the new
Chamber of Commerce building, the
Andrus building a group of beautiful
structures on the University campus,
several excellent school buildings in
Guiding the Douglas and East Side
High, number of creditable office
buildings for individual corporations,
such as the Northwestern and Twin
City Telephone exchanges, the Mime
apolis Gas Light companys building,
the Twin City Rapid Transit office
building, the General Electric COM
pany's offices, the new and most eX-
cellent banking building of the North
western National bank, the Young
Women's Christian association build
ing, the Northwestern Miller build
ing, the office building of F. B..
and F. L. Long, the architects,
the Pillsbury Library building and
scores Of good dwellings and ex-
ceIent apartment buildings. Some
of these may not seem prominent, but
they have added to the general educa-

Amputation Found Necessary.

Amputation Found Necessary.
8. Stenberg Of Lake Elizabeth was
In Atwater yesterday and reported
that he had just heard from his son
Earnest stenberg who is at the cities,
to the effect that the latter would have
to have his leg amputated. The young
man Injured his left leg near the knee
last fall while working about the
threshing machine. The injury SEEM
ed so slight at the time that he did
not pay much attention to it. About
Christmas time, however, it had be-
come so much worse that he became
alarmed and several physicians were
consulted, with the result that none OF
them we're able to effect cure, and he
was finally advised that amputation
was necessary. Accordingly he went
to the cities the first of the week, in
company with his brother Fred OF
Harrison, and after consulting the
best surgeons to be found there, with
the hope OF finding some one who
could effect cure without taking the
leg off, it was decided to have it am.
putated. The operation was set for
today. This is an extremely unfor.
tunate case, and the young man and
the members of his family will have
the sympathy of all.-Atwater Repub-

TO OUR CORRESPONDENTS.

We must again call the attention of
our correspondents to the fact that all
items should be received at this Office
not later than Tuesday noon in order
to insure publication the same week.
Send in your communications as early
as possible. The TRIBUNE desires to
60 to press Wednesday morning, so
as to be able to reach the majority OF
out-of-town subscribers by the follow
ing day. We would suggest that cor
respondents living at a distance, es-
pecially where there is not direct mail
service, would mail all communica-
tions on Saturday. If there is any
news of Importance too late for the
mails we are glad to receive it by
phone.
Correspondents are especially re-
quested to avoid personal attacks.
What we want is good, clean news
service, and not the airing of opinions
regarding one another. Exercise care
in getting at the truth of your state
ments, so that your news can be count
ed upon as being reliable. The TR1-
BUNE desires to establish reputation
for having a corps of correspondents
who can be depended upon for reliable

is now in our service. There are times
when one will be misinfOrmed, but in
such cases corrections can easily be
made in succeeding issues.
A good, live correspondent in every
town in the county is what we want
one who IS able to discover news when
there is news. To such a person we
will give best of inducements.
