EAST GRAND FORKS.
IS BOUND TO
BOOM
Installation of Sewer and
Water Will Mean Much
to the City.

There is but little question that
East Grand Forks will boom in the
immediate future il water works and
sewerage is installed. The fact that
rents are SO high on the west side
of the river will force people to the
east side who desire room for homes
and cannot afford TO pay an extra
fancy price fer the same II the
main streets OF the city were paved,
water works and sewer installed and
the street Gar extended across the
river, the value of property on this
side of the river would be nearly
doubled.
The city of Grand Forks is becom-
ing SO large thdt property within
walking distance of the business sec
ton of the city is so valuable that
rents must of necessity be very high.
1t will be some years before street
railways will be extended to enough
of the suburbs of the city to insure
enough residence property at reason
able prices and reptals to meet the
demands.

Newspaper is Coming.

Rumor has it that East Grand Forks
is to have a second newspaper. 1t Is
said that the political faction which
the Valley View has antagonized will
no longer tolerate Editor Stoughton's
tactics and have dug up the necessary
money to install second paper.
The business men have raised $4,000
to install the proposition and will
guarantee 5000 worth of job work per
month. 1t is said that a deal has
practically been closed whereby a
plant will be moved from the western
part of the state and installed in East
Grand Forks.
The advent Of a second paper will
overcrowd the field and will mean a
fight to finish for the patronage of
the business men of the city.

If the street car extended across the
river, people could live within easy
walking distance. of it and ride to
their places OF business or vnrv close
to them. The expense of living is
never as great in the smaller town
and this fact would bring many people
to live over here.
ID will also add to the business value
Of property in the future if the city
is maintained in as orderly manner
as possible. With wise adninistra-
ton the future OF East Grand Forks

probable that one more man at least
will be added to the force.

Way Down East.

r .r
Few plays have so graphically re-
produced the various phases of New
England life, as "Way Down East"
which will come to the local theater
on Wednesday, April 4. The story,
which is one of genuine heart inter-
est, is told simply and naturally and
there is an abundance of relishable
humor by way of contrast of the main
theme. The characters are cleverly
drawn and are SO well played by
Manager Brady's swell selected COM

pearance is concerned. have stepped
direct from the farm to the stage.

An Ahrupt Finale.

Joaquin Miller had just won recogni-
ton as the poet Of the Sierras and was
working on paper in Oregon. He
had been contributing verses and short
stories and had just begun tale about
the soldiers on the frontier who suf-
fered with scurvy. The editor wanted
the scurvy story for the morning pub
LEGATION, but Joaquin Miller could not
concentrate upon his work. His mind
leaped to the anticipated joy of great
social function occurring that evening,
for at this time he was social lion.
However, he had proceeded in his story
up to the point Of the conditional cure
for the disease where all the soldiers
suffering with scurvy had been buried,
with only their heads exposed to view.
The editor was yelling "Copy!' The
poets mind refused to work. He could
not finish the tale, leaving his soldiers
In such plight. Suddenly an inspira-
ton came to him. He grabbed his
pencil and wrote rapidly the following
words:
And a she wolf came along and ate
off all their heads" Then he made a
bee line for the door and was not seen
again until the next day. His story
was not published.
