Picture, gentle reader. a little city
surrounded by a rich and fertile coun.
t%ryside--a city with homes that have
been earned through the efforts Of
men who have endured many hard
ships. When you have conceived
such a picture you have created In
your minds eye the town Of Ana
moose. Now let your thoughts be
reminiscent, turning back TO the days
when the hardy. pioneers e chang
Ing the wild and unbroken prairie
into q garden Of Eden. You will
stand appalled, at the, vast strides that
have been made. hut you will want
to talk with one Of the old-tiners
in this thriving village and he will
tell you this story.
His Story.
FL have seen this vast country
when It was the hunting ground OF
the Indian and the pasture OF the
now almost extinct buffalo. l have
seen the wagon trains wend their way
across the prairie when their drivers
fnew not at what moment they would
be attacked by Indians. j have seen
all these. changes take place in the
course of a natural life time. l have
seen the time when the red men came
forth with yellow paint on his face
and hatred in his heart. have see
all these things change. Why, by
golly, just over the hill yonder the
Indians attacked us and we went out.
by golly, l tell you, it was nip and
tuck.
Origin Of City.
But let IS get back to the real issue
before US and see how Anamoose has
grown. Let us talk about the city
that We have tried to tell you of its
origin, and the men that helped to
make it a city, that the State of North
Dakota is mighty glad to CALI n OF
her own. And this to the prospec-
tive settler, You will have a hard
time finding a better locality in which
to settle and have. all the comforts
that are offered the farmer or bust
ness man Of the older states. Ana.
moose will give YOU all Of this and
more, too. for this country is practi.
cally a new one, and hence the Op-
pOruntitfes are greater in number.

Why stay III. . country that merely
makes y0ii b iising and nothing for
the s.fut.ire. Come to this great state
and let us show You a chance where
the East refuses to give even You a
good living. Your objection is the
schools Why. MI. Man, we can show
you as good schools as the East ever
had. Our stnte is turning out men
and that is more that a number OF
the colleges OF the East are doing.
Sned your boy; t the land OF oppor-
tunity and If he has the making of q
man in him, lie can find the kind OF
work he wishes to follow, and be sue
cessful. You too, an find q. home that

way to- prosperity for you, If you will
only make the most Of the opportun.

Father Did the Work.
Well father lived here all his life
and ! guess II is good enough for ne,
and we naturally come to the conclus-
ion that, Just because President viii.
sons father was never president that
Mr.. Wilson would not try. That was
not in the Wilson's, because his faith
err never attained the presidency, that
was no reason why the younger mar
would not make a try for the highest
honor that the American people
could bestown upon a man, and he
won; and you may not get to be pre-
sident through coming to this state
or territory.
