The commercial metropolis of the county i :
phenomenal town. The site was chosen wi
good judgment , being near theairoad
pretty , with n liill sightly and attractive f
residences. The entire city , now having
population of 120\ has been built since Jnr
1882 ; the nrchitecture is principally frau
but a good class of buildings ; a tew bri
buildings nre to be seen. Theamountof mo

will reach fully $100.000. and the prospects f
the coming year nro oven better. A very su

Educational matters have secured thi
share of attention amid the clatter of rai

supporied. Their school building is qui
pretentious , upon a handsome silw. The v

Church property now is valued at § 4.000.
There are lour civic societies , one go

WHAT FACTORIES WILL PAY ?

too would pay in time a broom manufacto

returns. There is an abundance ot good c
straw , plenty of water , and a large-demand 1
