RAPID GROWTH OF PAST FEW
YEARS HAS BEEN PERMANENT
AND Is TELLING.

R. G. Dun & Co. have just finished
compiling some interesting statistics on
the growth of business in North Da-
kota. The result ? is strongly in favor
of the business interests Of the state,
and indicates a most healthful com
mercial condition: In the last six
months the increase has been specially
marked, and is not an ephemeral boom
In the past few years the state has
been growing rapidly, but for time
it's growth was Of nature hardly last
ing, Now affairs have settled to. a
dustry of the state, have grown and
increased remarkably. Settlers who
came into the state with little capital
have become well established. For a
time the entire business of the state
was in their hands, and as they were in
the majority poor, little progress was
made. Now it is changed. :
In the last six months fifty-eight new
towns have been added, thirty two of
them on new railroad branches. In the
same time 454 new business enterprises
have been started. Five banks have
discontinued business, two have reor
ganized as national banks, and 103 new
banks have been started. The rail

FAIR OFFICERS ARE BUSY
NEW LIVESTOCK AMPHITHEATER

POSSIBLE.

With the state fair only two months
behind them and another ten months
ahead, the officers of the Minnesota
State Agricultural society are still par
ticularly busy just now. The new live
stock amphitheater is being pushed as
fast as possible, with good prospects
of getting the foundations in before a
permanent freezeup. It is expected that
the steel construction will go on with
out interruptio9n1 during the winter, SO
that spring will see only the walls and
finishing to be done. Pike & Cook, who
have the general contract, are rushing
things under the direction Of Secretary
E. w. Randall, who is in constant CON
sultation with President Cosgrove, Vice
Presidents B. F. Nelson and G. M.
Griggs and others of the board. The
Minneapolis Steel & Machinery COM
pany has the contract for the steel work
and is getting out the material rapidly.
