The CRYING NEED
is MORE HOUSES

In conversation with Supt.
Davis of this division of the Ct.
Northern, we were told that the
Great Northern fully intended
bringing their railroad shops to
Minot, and would have done so
this year but for The fact that
there were no houses for the rail
road men, who would follow the
shops to live in. The business
men Of Minot should use every
effort possible to see that an
adequate number Of good houses
are built. Mr.. Davis tells us
that there will be fully 60 fami-
lies brot to Minot on account of
the shops, besides thirty or forty
young men will be given paying
employment. At present there
are % families that would be
moved here by reason of the Git.
Northern's bringing her division
to Minot, had we the houses. AS
a 500 cottage will rent for $15
a month, it seems that some OF
our moneyed men would invest
a little money in house building.
We believe that 100 houses built
this fall, would find ready renters.
The Great Northern has al.
ready brot this year 200 men to
Minot. Mr.. Davis said that
while Minot has been very good
to the Great Northern, the com.
pany intended using N1inot right

A Good Man for Minot.

We have within our growing

has lived here but a short time,
has done some excellent "plug-

word along. While at Devils

which embraces 1000 miles, re-
marked to William Jennings
Bryan and Governor Sarles that
Minot was the best city on the
Great Northern west Of Mime

happened to hear the remark
and quickly spoke a good word
for his town, at the same time
''k' ocking'' Minot. The Super

that he said about Minot WAS
true and he could prove it. Mr..
