Our Jobbing Trade.
New firms and engagements of ex.

year have materially strengthened the
position Of Bismarck as the best dis.
tributing point of the northwest. The
entrance of an exclusive ladies' fur
nishing house; a gentlemen's toggery
shop; and an exclusive shoe store
were contributing factors. Also the
coming of a number of smaller con-
Germs and the increase of stock and IA
cilities and material enlargement for
handling added business by some of
the old houses, placed the city in a
stronger position to take care of it's
increasing wholesale and retail trade.

gentlemen in command of these great

Bisc.*:ck, Dec. 3 1911.
Mr. President and Members OF the
Commercial C!nb:
1t was with >me t!cpidation that
began to prepare, this my second
annual report.
There appears to be worldwide
idea of North Dakota crop failure,
notwithstanding the fact that the
value of North Dakota products tnis
year was greater than in any proceed
ing year. The prosperity OF this
state is so CLOSELY associated with
good crops, that this report Is de-
pressing even to North Dakota bust
ness men. With this thought present,
it became somewhat of quandary
as to what l could truthfully embody
in my report. But as began to
gather material and look backward
on the results of this clubs efforts
during the year of 1911, became con-
WINGED that the results are fully as
good and in many respects much bet.
ter than in any other year since we
obtained a charter.
1t is true that our trade territory
has suffered very materially from the
effect of crop failure. Our wholesale
and in a manner our retail trade are
both affected by these conditions. But
through it all we have received the
assurance many times from reliable
sources of Information, that the city
of Bismarck is the best business.
point in the state today; that 1t does
not appear to suffer seriously from ex.
listing conditions; and we believe it to
be our duty to exhort our people to be
of good cheer and strong heart for
the temporary nervous strain will
leave no scars.
We find that events of importance.
have occurred in 1911 which will be
like mile-stones along the pathway OF
our city's progress. In our report
one year ago tonight We made the as
sertion that Bismarck was just the
size and in just such a condition that
it's success or failure during the next
five years would indicate the Bis.
marck of 1925. In other words that it
was in position where it could cas-.
lily die nice quiet death, or by the
effects of a good strong boosting or
ganization be lifted and carried for
ward upon the strong wings of public
commercial opinion. and take It's place
among the few really middle-west
cities.
With the latter ambition in view
your secretary has been an active
publicity agent during the year. I'm.
der cover of news items We have
advertised Bismarck in many publ
cations. Our efforts have been EN-.
ployed in securing such publicity for
the city as can be secured at small

expense. We have furnished many
articles descriptive Of the city and its
advantages to periodicals whose COL
umns were open to us, especially
through the middle-west publications.
We have written over two hundred
and fifty personal letters to inquirers
beside mailing several hundred PAM
phlets and descriptive articles. BY
direction of the board of directors
ads have been inserted at various
times in Chicago daily papers, and in
one illustrated booklet, ten pages Of

serted. During the exposition posters
were placed by your publicity COM
mitted-by courtesy of the 500 and
Northern Pacific railways, at nearly
every depot along those lines in the
state, results from this ceaseless
guide of publicity are very gratifying
for there is no doubt that public opin-
ion has been moulded which is very
favorable for this city.
Conventions
During the year ending this date,
the city has entertained a large num-
Der of conventions and it's reception
rooms and assembly hall have been
placed at the disposal of many gath
erings and committee meetings., all
of which were so we'll cared tbr as
to satisfy the delegates and visitors.
While not all of these were cared for
by your committee, or personally en-
tertained by this organization, there
were few of the number that were
not given some assistance either in
arranging for the convenience of the
sessions or entertainment of the DEL
egates. The publicity for the city OBJ
tanned through these gatherings was
marked advantage, as all who at
tended departed from the city carry
ing with them enlarged ideas of the
commercial importance Of Bismarck
and pleasant remembrances of the
hospitality of the people.
Manufacturing Interests
The year has been marked by the
extension of a number Of established
manufacturing concerns, and the en-
trance of a number of new factories
and industries Tie most noticeable
enlargement Of existing plants is that
of the Marshall Oil, which now has
one Of the best equipped oil plants
in the state. Permission was also
granted in November by the city COM
mission to the Standard oil company
to make extensive improvements in
its plant. The contracts are awarded
and the improvements will undoubted-
ly be made In the spring Of 1912.
BY far the greatest manufacturing
industry established during the year
is that of the Bismarck Foundry and
Brazing company. This company has

hat road would extend into Bismarck,

that road would extend into Bismarck,
but not during 1911. Since that con-
ference one of the general officers OF
the road has been entertained in this
city and made the positive assertion
that the Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul railroad would build into Bis
marck within eighteen months.
This will probably be an extension
of the Linton branch, thus giving US
another Minneapolis and St. Paul line
and a better opportunity to get our
share of the Elusive trade in the
southern part of our own state.
Another Northern Pacific extension
which railroad rumor persists in rep
resenting will be built in 1912 is a
line of about 100 miles from Edgeley
to the Missouri river, at which point
it will connect with the Mott extern
sion. This also will be of great bene-
fit to our general trade, for this line
will run through district served
only by north and south lines at pres
ent. These north and south lines will
give easy connections and will be one
more incentive for commercial men
to headquarter in Bismarck.
City Growth and improvement.
During the year the Commercial
club has fostered many improve
ments of great worth to the city. We
have already spoken of the foundry
and machine shops. the Marshall Oil
and other extensions. Among other
lines we will mention the Masonic
Temple" which is now nearly COM
pleted, and is to be exclusively for
the use of that fraternity. It is one
of the finest in the entire country and
should be an object of pride and in
terest to our citizens; several brick
buildings have been erected in the
downtown districts. Foundations are
now in for couple more and sew
eral big real estate transfers have
been recorded during the year, which
will no doubt be the means of impor-
tant improvements being made by the
