The RCSH OF ENIGRANTS WEsTwARD-There
Is no doubt that to the historian the most
marked phenomenon OF the year 1879 will be
the rush OF immigrants into what Charles sum
Ter called the territorial celter-Kansas and
western Missouri. In the latter state the Cry
welcoming new settlers is now so enthusiastic
as to trench upon feyeIiiS3. A state board o.
immigration has just been formed. and the
newspapers pay far more attention TO the mat
ter OF nliing up the farm lands than they do to
Bronze John, who knocks at their back door
Agencies OF the board are being established In
Scotland and Germany, as well as in Boston,
New York and Cincinnati. A hundred thou
saDG pamphlets, In which are set forth mineral
and agricultural resources, the manufacturing
advantages, transportation facilities aud acce5-
s1bility to markets, will be distributed In va
riouS parts OF the country. The whole state is
excited, but in the northwestern counties par
ticularly are the citizens anxious that new men
and new ideas shall be taken In. One outcrop-
ping OF the agitation will be q rouSing DOW
WOW In the city OF st. Joe. President Hayes
has promised to be present, and 1t Is proposed
TO make the gathering the largest ever held In
the west. The railroads have agreed to put
down the fare so that 1000 excursonists from
various points win be entertained, and what
with fireworks and boDfires st. Joe expects TO
get grand boost towards glory. 10000 copies
or map or northwestern Missouri have been
sent Out, and one agent In England proposes to
take 800 farms and 30 900 acres OF wild land for
the settlement or colony OF dissatisfied labor
