MORRIS.
WESTERN MINNESOTA^
TAKES.
ADVAN
For quite a number of years the
greater portion of immigrants have
passed directly through the fertile
fields of Minnesota to become citizens
of the iireat territory of Dakota.
Knowing that many parts of Minne
sota otl'ei superior advantages to these
new comers we think this fact a
strange one. We have often won
dered why people would press on to
the frontier to settle upon some piece
of'wild land isolate themselves for a
time from society impose upon them
selves the laborious workofd eveloping
a new and untried soil bear the
burden of making roads, forming
sehool districts and building
school houses tax themselves to the
utmost to create and sustain necessary
local institutions and governments
inlliet upon themselves the privations
of'pioneer iife and make it necessary
for untold sacrifices to be made by
their families when the result sought
the establishment of a home—could
be attained without all tliesedisadvan
tages. By excessive advertising and
the push and enterprise of the pioneers
of Dakota the stream of immigration
has been so great that values have
been crowded beyond their natural
limit and now a poor man can only
obtain a home in one ot two ways
by laying an extravagant price or else
by going to the far west where all the
hardships, briefly outlined above
must be endured. That he should do
either when neither is necessary is
certainly a subject of wonder. Here in
Minnesota are lands richer than any
of which Dakota can boast and which
can be bought for prices
which are so ridiculously low that peo
ple who do not stop to consider the
cause for such low figures, naturally
conclude the land to be worthless.
Here too farmers are nearer tiie mar
kets of the world and have access to a
greater number of competing com
mercial centers. They are thus able
to buy needed supplies cheaper and
sell all productions for a higher price
than is possible for their fellow work
ers farther west. Here too roads are
built, schools and churches are estab
lished, local governments are perfected
and pa:d for and all the advantagesof
society may be enjoyed. That land
richer and more productive than that
further "West i poll which settlers can
enjoy all the advantages of the East
can be obtained even more cheaply
than that upon the frontier is strange
but true.
The causes which have produced
temporary low prices for Minnesota
farming lands can be readily un
derstood by any one who will give
the subject a moment's thought. In
all new countries many of the first
settlers are unsuccessful. They are
perhaps men who have made a failure
of farming in the older portions of the
country, broken down tradesmen, or
men of indifferent habits who would
never succeed anywhere in anything.
Minnesota has had her full share of
this worthless class. They have taken
claims and have in some way eked out
an existence until final proof could be
made when to purchase horses, ma
ehinery or perhaps to settle debts al
ready contracted, they mortgage their
farms to raise the money. After this
has been accomplished some desert
their places without further exertion
and move on to live the same experi
ence over again farther west. Others
by slovely methods of work and by
lazily neglecting the very essentials
of successful farming fail to meet their
obligations and the loss of their farms
by mortgage foreclosure is the inev i
table result. This again results in
placing these farms upon the market
at a price but little if any in advance
of the amount of the mortgages. Just
such results as this are being accom
plished in all parts of western Minne
sota today. As the mortgages'are given
many of tliem for but $1.50 to 2.00 per
acre and none of them for more then
|5.00 per acre a person can see at a
glancc that it is possible to buy farms
for sums so low as to be almost incred
ible. This condition of things can in
no way be made to reflect discredit
upon the country. The crop of wheat
of 2o to .'Jo bushels per acre which is
now being threshed refutes indisput
ably any charge of worthlessness. All
over these fertile prairies, too, may be
seen the homes of thrifty industrious
farmers who have finely developed
farms, with substantial houses and
barns, who are free from debt and
whose places can not be purchased at
any price. Where such successes can
.be attained the country must be all
that can be desired, and because right
beside one of these successful men can
be found one who would be glad to
abandon his farm for the most paltry
consideration to any one who will
pay the mortgage can in no way re
flect unfavorably upon the farms. It
simply means that men are now hold
ing farms who lack the disposition or
ability to operate them successfully,
wjho will never accomplish anything
mid who soon must be succeeded by a
mere thrifty class. It shows also that
in succeeding one of these unsuccess
ful ones a person will gain most valu
able farms for but little capital. Be
side these lands thus for ced upon the
market, other cheap lands are obtain
able. There are many state lands
Which are available. $taey are placei
under the control of the state auditor
as land commissioner, and provision is
made for their appraisal at price not
below $5.00 per acre, and each year a
quantity of these lands arc offered at
public sale in the several counties.
The purchaser is required to pay in
cash, 15 per cent, of the amouut of his
bid for prairie land, and 20 to 75 per
cent, for timber land according to the
value of such timber. On the remain
der of the purchase money, the pur
chaser is granted a credit of thirty
years, at 7 percent., interest payable
yearly in advance or he may, at any
time within that period, pay the whole
amouut and receive a deed at once,
and thus stop the accruing of interest.
There is no possible way of reasoning
that can make it appear to be more
profitable to move on to the frontier
as long as present conditions remain.
Improvements can be bought here
cheaper than they can be made there,
and taking into consideration the
many advantages here offered the con
clusion is irresistable that superior
farms can be purchased more cheaply
here than they can be obtained there,
even if one goes far enough to obtain
government land upon which the
first cost is nothing. These facts are
being widely circulated and thorough
ly understood and we believe that, to
a great extent, men who are seeking
homes will cease to go westward and
that values in Dakota will cease to ad
vance until the many opportunities
for cheap and valuable lands in west
ern Minnesota have been improved.

ANGLO-AMERICAN CIRCUS.
A Union of Four Great Shows Com
ing on their own Special Train to
Morris Saturday Sept. 22nd.
In the organization of this grand
union of wonders and amusements
every possible resource has been ex
hausted, detail adjunct and auxiliary
have been called in requisition to cul
minate the acme of his ambition a
perfect show.
The announcement that the great
exhibition will exhibit at Morris Sat
urday Sept. 22nd. is hailed with de
light by old and young. The entire
unrivaled and gigantic establishment
menagerie, circus, museum, manifold
open air features, and boundless var
ieties of chariots, band wagons vans
tabelaux cars, open dens of perform
ing wild beasts, and innumerable nov
elties, present truly a mass of attract
ions seldom, if ever before, offered for
exhibition, all of the most chaste, re
fined, instructive and pleasurable
character, to suit the tastes, fancies,
and foibles of every one, young and
old.
The lover of the wonders of natural
history will find ample food for study
andreflection in the zoological depart
ment containing a complete collection
of wild animals. The museum in
cludes myrids of natural and artifical
curiosities, wonderful freaks of nature
startling representations of marvelous
powers of endurance. In the circus
department those who delight in novel
daring, exhilerating and classic feats
of horsemanship and physical skill
will find their expectations fully rea
lized. Come one, come all. At
Morris Saturday, Sept. 22nd.
Spurr & Aurland.
This is the name of a new firm
which bears the relation of owner to
the new store upon Atlautic Avenue
where so many new and attractive
goods may be found. For the past
three years Mr. Spurr has had charge
of the lower elevator during which
time he formed an extensive acquint
ance with people in and out of time
and has thus laid the foundation for
success in his present business. Ele
vator men we have been told by farm
ers are hard cases but as Mr. Spurr has
so many friends we think th:s can not
be truthfully said of him. Mr. Aur
land was first engaged as book-keeper
for Wolft & Wells when he come to
Morris and after leaving that situation
figured as a machine and insurance
agent. There is we believe an ill
defined prejudice lying round some
where that machine and insilrance
agents are b-a-d men too, but the
same reason that impels us to think
Mr. Spurr an exception to most ele
vator men impels us to declare that
Mr. Aurland is also an exception to
the class among which he was for a
time numbered. In the union of
interest formed between the two men
the junior member of the firm will
stimulate and second the efforts of the
senior, while the senior will Spur(r)
the junior up to his full capacity, and
the result will be a rousing success.
When Mr. Rohne moyed out of the
building lately occupied by his drug
store Spurr & Aurland immediately
began fitting the store up for their
stock of groceries which soon after
arrived. Now the new goods are well
arranged and the business of the new
store has begun. Thursday was the
day when the watermelon was cut and
the store formally opened to the pub
lic, but those who were not present at
the driving of the last spike will be
cordially received at any time. In
this issue of the TRIBUNE appears an
advertisement which will greatly
augment the sale of peanuts, honey,
lamp chimneys etc., and place the
new firm upon the sure road to suc
cess.
The crop of woodyards this year
promises to he good.

LOCAL NOTES.
Tbe ndn of Thursday morning
stopped the work of threshing for a
short time.
Improvements are the order of the
day this season and Colohau does not
fail to catch on.
A good stock of fresh fruit and
melons may be seen in Good & Bris
bine's show window.
O. K. Gesme has recently painted
his wagon and blacksmith shop, and
greatly improved its appearance.
One man near town,we are informed,
threshed a crop of 157bushels of
wheat to the acre. Beat this who can.
An addition capable of holding eight
horses has just been built to the barn
at the St. Paul House and the entire
barn has been given a coat of paint.
It. R.Cole lias just added a large
number and a great variety of pipes to
the stock in his store. They are now
well displayed in his front window.
Mrs. F. Corliss has a fine piano
which she now offers for rent. Here
is a good opportunity for a person to
gain the use of an excellent instru
ment.
Keys to the engine house are hang
ing up in the office at the Metropoli
tan Hotel. Niglitwatchnian Nolting
also has a set of keys. In case of tire
this information may be worth some
thing.
An advww© ear belongWifeto the
circus arrived on Thursday noon and
before night all available space in
town as well as in the surrounding
county was covered with flaming ad
vertisements. In visiting the car we
saw an amount of posters that sur
qrised us.
At the caucus on Tnursday night, D.
S. Griffin, J. D. Good, M. Webber,
M. L. Torpliy, C. L. Brown, 8. A.
Flaherty, E. J. Jones Jr., and A. A.
Stone were chosen to represent the
village of Morris in the Republican
county convention at the court house
this afternoon.
Mr. P. Frisby has rented all that
portion of the Central House which is
unoccupied and will be ready to re
ceive guests on and after Monday
next. After Ocl. 1st we understand
that he will have control of the entire
hotel when he will have sufficient
room for a rousing good business
Mr. and Mrs. Frisby have been resi
dents of the county since the early
days apd have always been noted for
their hospitality, and people visiting
the Central House while under their
management will be sure to receive a
cordial reception and good treatment.
L. W. Curtiss is quite sure tbat a
sneak theif entered his residence be
tween 3 and six o'clock yesterday
morning. After meeting the up train
and caring for the express he went
home, locked the doors, undressed and
went to bed. Upon getting up he
found his clothes scattered about his
sleeping room, with pokets turned in
side out and several of the doors open.
As the pokets were empty to begin
with the burglar who took the pains
to do all this work must have been
awfully disgusted. Mr. Curtis has
now established a most desirable re
putation as being rough on ambitious
burglars he will probably not be mo
lested in the future.
If any of the TRIBUNE readers or
their friends wish to gain possession
of any Stevens county farming land
tliey should do so at once. Delay will
certainly be expensive for at no future
time will land be so cheap as now.
The present large crop has already had
the effect of calling attention to this
section and has increased the demand
for laud. One careful observer esti
mates that prices will advance at least
25 per cent, during the coming year.
Inquiries for land are numerous and
even now hardly a day pa&ses but
what brings some new comer in quest
of a farm. Prices of land which can
be bought for the amount of the mort
gage upon them or for a sum slightly
in advance are growing beautifully less
day by day and at no distant time
will not be iu the market. We repeat,
those who wish forms for homes or
who wish to take advantage of the
"rise" which is sure to come xUould
buy at once. Time will prove this
advice to be sound.
Upon Mat Diedricli's farm is a piece
of ground covered with small trees
which is well worth looking over. It
shows first what everybody knows
that trees will grow here and second
that they will grow very rapidly when
properly cultivated. These trees were
planted last spring and were then but
three or four inches liiarh. Now many
of them are four and a half feet high.
The trees being so small were easily
planted. After the ground had been
prepared a slight furrow was made
with a hoe in which the seedlings
were placed and the roots covered.
After this was done the young trees
were carefully cultivated and kept
absolutely free from weeds. The re
sult cau be seen by any one who will
visit the place. This is certainly the
way to grow trees and no one who
cultivates and cares for them as care
fully as Mr. Dledrich has done need
fail. No farm should be without a
grove of trees.
A fellow named Scott Girard catt£.
very near opening a shooting gallery
in town on Thursday. After practic
ing sufficiently to get the hang of his
riflle lieset up a target between the
post office and the express office and
announced himself ready for buiness.
At this juncture Marshall Webber
asked to *ee the gun which was im
mediately handed over and then re
quested the young man to accompany
him for a walk. The path fcakjeu was
toward Justice Hutchin's office. As
the would be sliootist had no license
he was requested to replenish the
village treasury to the extent of Ave
dollars which he did. Before cashing
up he informed the Justice that he
had shot in 14 states witiiout license
but this was considered hardly an
adequate excuse for not paying the
fine. __
