THE NORTHERN PACIFIC RAIL
RAAn

Hon n NJ Rice writes letter to the ST
Paul Pioneer showing the immencc bu-i>
ness industries which have been developed
by the Northern Pacific railroad, and
which nre contingent upon the pr,secu-
ton and successful opel alton of this read.
There are other reasons which he gives To
show that this great enterprise is ne'tssary
10 the country, aud one which should res
ceive every reasonable encours gem, mt 1T
the hands of the government The British
government has been quicker to see the
advantage which must result from the de-
velopment of this rich Northwestern agri-
cultural region, having already projected
lines OF communication with Manitoba
which are scarcely known 10 our people
The views of person SO loval to The in
terests Of Minnesota az is Mr. Rice are en-
titled to careful consideration. and are
sure to receive it at the hands of thought
full persons. Nothing Congress could do
would so stimulate the Ianguishing ln'ins>
tries of the country as TO give needed en-
xOuragement to this and kindred enter
prises. Thousands Of persons now idle
would find remuncra'ive employment, and
by becoming consumers. would stimulate
all the branches of industry. A grea. de
mand for iron. coal. lumber. etc. would
he at once created and these industries
being in successful operation would set
moving the wheels Of all other manufac-
turing enterprises Something must be
done by the government to give employ
mcnt to the idle thousands in the land.
and nothing will contribute SO effectually
and so easily to this end rs granting the
aid which the Northern Pacific railroad
asks of Congress.
