IVES, Is developing no5ly. Many
farms III Vermont and New Halnp-
shire have been deserted. The own
ers Of them could no. cultivate them
to any profit, not enough even to pay
taxes. All the cities and towns of
New England are badly in debt from
loaning money to railroads, erecting
costly public buildings, making vari-
Gus city improvements, ETC., conse-
quently the taxes are enormous.
The city of Hartford is in debt to the
amount of SIS, 100000. Some ofthe
items included are, the park 81, OOO,-
600, the water works as much more,
and so on, for which bonds have
been issued.
Let the incoming State of Wash
ington and the growing towns and
cities of her territory beware of get
ting into debt. Real estate here,
from this cause, can be bought for
about one-half the amount of the val
ne five years ago. This condition of
affairs makes it ruinous for the own
ers. Men who were good for $780,
600 then have gone into bankruptcy
on account of slrinkage in values of
real estate. The people of New Eng
land have begun to look towards the
Pacific Slope as land flowing with
milk and honey compared with their
own sterile soil. The writer hereof
remembers we'll when it took three
weeks to reach Ohio, the then Wild
erness of the West. Look at Ohio
to-day!
There are many men who would
gladly leave New England for homes
in Washington Territory, but they
know nothing of the great Northwest,
and more who do not have the means
of getting there, but necessity may
drive many to some expedient for
reaching those shores. One hundred
thousand copies of newspaper like
the STANDARD, setting forth the claims
and advantages OF your Territory,
circulated in New England among
the laboring men, would add TO-
900 settlers to your population.
New England is overlooking with
Woodworking men and good mechan-
les, who know comparatively moth
ing OF the great Northwest.
Hartford has suffered greatly past
few years from losses by fire and 9th
inisfortunes- She paid about So
