PIONEER LAND AND LOAN MAN
WILL OPEN MAIN OFFICE
= IN BISMARCK. Il

The departure Of D. T. Owens, the
pioneer land man, from BaHour TO
Bismarck, was made the occasion OF
a very hearty reception on the part
of the many friends of the family IN
Balfour where they have resided dur
ing the last eight years and where
Mr.. Owens has accumulated 3 fortune
as we'll as scores of friends who re-
greet to see him leave the McHenry
county metropolis. IL. s
Mr.. Owens and family will arrive
in Bismarck in few days and for the
winter will occtpy the Joseph Hare
residence on Sixth street. Mr.. Owens
will occupy rooms in the Tribune
block for his land and loan agency
which will be in readiness during the
month.
OF his departure from Balfour the
Messenger of that city says
Last evening a farewell reception
was given in honor of Mr.. and Mrs. D.
T. Owens who are about to leave for
Bismarck where Mr.. Owens has open
ed new land Office. ,..-.-
This was one of the prime functions
of the social history Of Balfour. It
was altogether surprise to the hon
ored guests. Since no house in the
city could accommodate so many, it
was deemed wise to use the heated
apartments 0f the Oddfellows and
Masons. The main hall was decorat-
ed most beautifully. Nothing. was
spared to make it homelike. But af-
ter all was ready, some difficulty was
experienced in getting Mr.. and Mrs.
Owens to- come to the hall. Mrs. A.
3L.sS Leonard taxed her ingenuity to the
limit to get Mrs. Owens to come, and
Mr.. Owens, who was sleeping on the
couch after long drive, was roughly
awakened by his brother Price, who
had been let into the secret.
The surprise was complete. The
real purport OF the event. did not
dawn upon Mrs. Owens till she was
sas one of the guests of
honor. The scheme thus unfolding,
the real enjoyment Of the evening
began. >..ss ~ ""

times the present amount of printed
matter which any one or body of men

fifty times more good than the pres
ent way of advertising this county.
To successfully advertise Is to get
talked about. The depot is talked
about, but not much Is said about
the town, except that it is on the
Missouri river, and most farmers care
little for the depot. They are after
the how and why of sack Of wheat
and a cellar full of potatoes. You
have to put it to them in plain Eng
lish If you want them to settle here
and let them cast their eyes upon the
actual results or they will think your

Having seen the interest taken by
those who came to Bismarck to reg
lister, in the display Of products of
Burleigh county, in the booth erect
ed on the street near the depot, and
hearing many comments, also argu-
ments on the same, I became con-
WINGED Of two things, the need in the
downtown district of a permanent
display similar to the one mentioned
and the lack Of convincing, determin-
ed and explanatory evidence that
something does grow in this part of
the state besides grass.
Now, for instance, let stranger
come from the east to Bismarck, he
sees very little attractive farming
west of Jamestown from the car win
dows.
After having travelled through Min
nesota and as far as Valley City he
has passed through some very good
country which, AS chance has made it.,
is close to the railroad.
West OF Valley City or jamestown
the country looks very much differ
ent andF he begins to get the idea
that the Great American Desert Is
near, because the sight of large farms
and their buildings gradually de-
crease and 4 can easily see how his
impression is received.
When he approaches Bismarck the
state penitentiary takes his eye then
the depot, which is one Of the best,
If not the best, on the N. r. system.
The town itself appears busy and
progressive; it looks clean; and out
side he sees only hills and the river
. valley. In his mind he questions the
why of d town of the size and the ap-
pearance Of Bismarck. He makes
inquiries and is told that over these
hills are as fine farms as anywhere In
the state, then his informant gets the
gold brick stare" for his pay; for has
he not--the traveler-rode half day
through--he hardly knows what.
Now Just here is where he should
be- given the Missouri glad hand of
show me-in an exhibit of what is
-(not can be)-raised in and near
Bismarck, then he can go forth and
tell of his knowledge and perhaps re-
turn to become one OF the producers
of the county. rs~.s.rs .... ga
understand, and not fully to my
own satisfaction, as few seem to be
sure of it themselves, those Of whom
Z I have made inquiries, that there is
continually the year round an exhib-
it OF produce. at the capitol building.
Well and good, but, how many have
the time or inclination to. go there,
sosfar from town.
If that OF the capitol, or q similar
display were down town where it
should be, not on a side street either,

STEELE OZONE MAN FINDS BIG
CHANGES FOR THE BETTER
IN CAPITAL CITY.

Steele Ozone: The editor spent
Sunday and Monday in Bismarck, his
first visit in over a year. The city
has taken great strides in that time,
and made rapid Roadway in fulfilling
the Ozone's long ago prediction that
it would one day be the first and fin
est city in the state. Getting fac
ionalism largely suppressed and mu-
nicipal administration down to a
business basis is one important ele-
ment in the advancement of the cap
itol. Stern repression of the old
tendencies should be the doctrine of
all business men and public spirited
residents.

FIXED FOR
DAMAGED EYE

A standard price has been estab-
lished for INDUCING In the rather
l eprehensible habit OF blackening or
otherwise dishguring your neigh
boris eye.
In the course OF hearing OF the
charges hled against one Joe Fer
rage. who is alleged to have per-
formed some picturesque hand dec
orative work upon the optic OF an
old Chinese, Judge Andrade took oc-
casion to remark from the police
court bench that there is a fixed fine
for such misdemeanors. and that he
would therefore levy an assessment
OF ten dollars and the costs against
the Forage finances.
In these days of luxuries those per-
sons inclined to exercise their pug.
ilistic tendencies can therefore count
beforehand upon the cost of the dis
sipation along facial decorative lines.

Vice Consul General Claude Il.

British inventor has been giving
tests on the Isthmus of new explo-

sion to order 20 tons of It for trial.
Mr.. Guyant writes concerning the
product:

dents, such as paraffin for water
proofing, etc. II is claimed that II
is so per cent stronger than the SO

the cost of manufacturing will be
over $50 per ton cheaper.
