OF the twelfth legislative session.
can only add that no one delegation
OF an equal number of members play
ed so important part in bringing
these things about as did the north
west delegation, who practically stood
as unit from the making of the or
ganization on and thru the sixty days
OF legislative labor They not only
filed very largely the large and I'M
portant chairmanships but they, each
and all, measured up to the opportun-
tiles and responsibilities placed upon
them. They deserve the commenda-
ton of their home constituencies and
the whole people of the northwest.
In conclusion, desire to say that
proudly lift my hat to them and the
twelfth legislative session. It took
courage, ability and patriotism to
achieve these important and far
reaching results.

Introducing him, the Governor said he
never before knew a man who had
talked as often as Nestos did in the
legislature, and yet made good. The
reason no doubt was because his col

COOPERATION
OF BUSINESS MEN

Every Business Man, avery Profess
sional Man, Every Merchant, Every
Property Owner and Every Citizen
This ninth day of March, 1911, is
the precise time when every man
should arouse himself and shake off
his Indifference, put aside his person,
al feelings for the public good, and
| get into the game which is bound to
prove interesting to every Minoter in
a short time.
His shoulder must be to the wheel
helping the Commercial club to at,
tain the end for which it is now striv-
ing and you all know it is one OF the
greatest objects we have had to strive
for in long time. There never has
! been a time in the brief history of
| Minot when the future holds so much
of promise but the promise will not
be fulfilled without earnest and hearty
cooperation of every one of her sons.
The possibility OF the coming of
the Grand Trunk railroad to our city
Is seen in the horoscope of the fu-
ture and no one doubts the value of
a third railroad into Minot. In the
meantime are we going to stay in
retirement and leave all the neces-
sary effort to others to bring about
this result? Have We not stayed in
retirement long enough There is
work for each of us now to do. ]
A committee will have to go to
meet the officials Of the Grand Trunk
and present Minot's natural aavan
tages as a distributing point, being
the geographical center of large ana
productive territory. This committee
Is entitled to the privilege of saying
I'VE are backed by every man in our
city without exception We repre-.
sent city of over $500 inhabitants,
the growth of which has exceeded |
that Of every other city in this state |
in the last ten years. We are backed
by Commercial club of over THREE
HUNDRED live members and they all |
stand together Loyalty for Minot and !
her welfare.
The influence by such declaration |
II backed by truth would be immeas.
urable.
Personally, however, we must not
feel too ccnceiteG over our gain in
the past ten years for it does not
necessarily follow that we will keep
up this rate of advancement in pop.
ulation unless we have new indus
tries which the Commercial club can
easily secure after the third railroad |
is assured.
There are many men in Minot to
day who are enjoying the fruits of
the labors of the Commercial club
but have so far shirked their respon
sibihty to the organization. Now,
there are great possibilities ahead or
us. Will not these backward individ-
uals come forward and join hands
with us and help boost the CONNER
cial. which has for its object, THE
BOOSTING of our home city. Very
sincerely yours, NJ.
