Prominent Iowan Visits City

C. H. Reynolds, prominent invest
ment banker of Dubuque, Iowa, spent
a few days in this section the first
of the week inspecting various prop
critics in which he is financially inter-
ested. Mr.. Reynolds has been an an
nual visitor to Minot for the past 20
years, during which time he has pur-
chased heavily of North Dakota Sc
curities but says the past few years,
debtors thruout this section have been
very careless about paying taxes and
interest causing eastern investors to
look somewhat with disfavor upon
their North Dakota investments.
However in spite of this criticism,
Mr.. Reynolds is frank in saying that
he considers North Dakota mortgage
as first class security as there has
been no imitation of values and conse-
quently the mortgages represent but
small fraction Of the actual value
of the land covered. The political
unrest here during the past few years
has lead him, however to transfer his
investments to the southwest, Okla
homa, principally. While in the city
Mr.. Reynolds was the guest of his
old friend, F. w. Youngman, with
whom he has maintained business re-
lations for nearly quarter of GEN.:
fury.

Fourteen Miles of MinOt-Max Road to
be Built This Year

In this issue of the Independent, APP
neafs four advertisements for bids
for some important road work which
is to be done in Ward county this
season. The bids are to be received
by the State Highway commission.
The Minot-Max road, is to be grad
ed and graveled from this city to a
ooint fourteen miles south Of the city.
It will be necessary for the city of
Minot to furnish right-of-way out
Of the city and it is hoped that this
can be effected by way Of Second St.
S. w. 1t will be necessary to secure
property owned by L. J. Palda, j. f.
Mckoane and others in order to do
this.
One of the bids calls for grading
the state highway twelve miles be-
tween Foxholm and Carpio, joining
the Minot state highway which has
been built to Burlington and which
is to be graded and graveled from
Burlington to Foxholm this year. The
contract for the Burlington-Foxholm
road was let to Stevens Bros. of St.
Paul last year and that concern is now
at work in the county. AS soon as
this company finishes it's work on
the Des Laos road, it will start the
Burlington-Foxholm project.
