Many letters of commendation have come in to Minot business men on the full page advertisement placed in the Minneapolis Tribune by Minot business men in appreciation of the boosting of the Northwest by F. E. Murphy, publisher and Herbert Kaufman, special writer. Fred Peqlow, general merchant of Glenburn, wrote to the Minot Association of Commerce that he has placed the advertisement in his window and in addition to “Hats off to Mr. Murphy and Mr. Kaufman,” he wanted to take “hats off” to the Minot business men.
