SATURDAY LAST CONCERT

Saturday evening the last band
concert of the season will be in
order. The evenings are getting
too chilly for the boys and their
long summer engagement toethe
people of Wahpeton has been one
of satisfaction on both sides. The
money collected for these con-
certs this summer has been spent
for suits for the band and instead

LATEST MARKET QUOTATIONS
BRIDGE TO BE PAVED

At meeting of the city council
of Breckenridge, attended by Co.
Commissioner w. J. Robinson, a
contract was let to the Great Nor
thern Bridge Co., of Minneapolis
for S2.28O.O0 for paving the Da-
kota ave. bridge. 1t will be paved
with creosoted wood blocks. The
condition of the planking in the
floor of the bridge is in bad shape
and in this way it was thought
that in the long run all concern
ed would be greatly benefited and
of less expense. The Street Rail-
way company is to pay one third.

MORE BUSINESS CHANGES

Wnlle there has Deen quite a
number of changes in the busi-
ness locations in this city during
the past year, two more import
ant changes will take place and
other are to follow but are not
yet ready for publication. But
as to these two they are:
The Paul & Oliver Grocery firm
will move into the building now
occupied by the National Bank
when the bank moves into the
new handsome quarters which
are now i'm the last stages of erec-
ton. This will give this firm more
room for the fine growing bust
ness and they have felt for some
time past that their present
quarters are too small and their
patrons will be pleased to mote
heir change for the enlargement
Of their headquarters.
Brown. lie Tailor. will move
from his present headquarters in
to the place to be vacated by Paul
& Oliver, and he too is now hard
pressed for room for his fast
growing and substantial business.
While it is not ready for publ
cation as to the other changes il
is safe to say that they will be
along the same lines and for the
same reasons. Thus will be seen
that Wahpeton is not only grow
ing in steadfast solidnes but that
the people in this community are
for Wahpeton at all times.
Had you been absent for the
last year and came back here now
you would not hardly recognize
your old abiding place. The writ
er has had many occasions to
speak to people that have been
absent from one year to ten in the
last few days and they have all
spoke in accord along this line,
that Wahpeton was looking better
to them right along. When stran-
gers to us now, note these chan
ges. not only from one source,
but from all. it must he nearly so.
These are few of the comments
on our rapid growth in every av-
enue of business and let all of us
make it more so i'm the future.
