Blair, for whom the town is named, |and the first lots wore sold in 1869, At that time tho Chicago and North- western road had reached this point and the town at once sprang | into life, and has steadily grown until now there are over 2,000 inhabitants and is rapidly increasing. A great | many new and substantial brick build ings have been built, among which are the Washington county bank and the handsome block occupied by Monroe & Hayes for the.sale of drugs and jewelry of all kinds. They are live business men and doing a fine trade. Tt is hardly necessary for your correspondent to attempt an oxtended just t] list of tho business firms of this point, for they are known for their uulld business principles and their atrict tidelity to 'Mue Bex, Herman Wembramat three weeks ago started a tempting dining hall and lodging house, naming it appro- priately ‘Farmer's Home,' and we think that farmors will find a com.- fortable home with mine genial host.

The second story is to be fitted up as an opora house with all the modern conveni- ences and a seating capacity of six hundred. A stock company has also been formed with J. F.

Building lots in this city have advanced in valuo just 100 per cent in the past oar. We understand that the reason of this boom is that the Sioux City, St Paul & Pacific contem- plate o bridge over the Missouri River at Blair, making a straight line to Sioux City and with the North- western running through to Omaha make a bright outlook for this lively city. The farming facilities of this county are superh; not being surpassed anywhere, and Blaip being at about the geographical center of it, takes most of the trade. Let me mention in conclusion two of the leading men of this fair city.
