An eastern paper has just discovered
that the northwestern ranges seem to
produce heavier cattle than the more
southern ones of New Mexico. The
average weight Of four-year-old native
steers that have gone into the Chicago
market from New Mexico this year was
1910 pounds. The same class of cattle
from Colorado have been loo, and from
Montana they have been l 200.
Here are some interesting statistics =
Excepting a part of our soldiers and
seamen, all of our 100000 of civilized
people need and occupy some kind OF a
dwelling place. Omitting criminals and
rowing Indians, the place occupied is

Backed BY the Government.

Considerable surprise is shown by
railroad men that the Pennsylvania
road is not crowded by the 5000 emil
grants that are arriving daily at New
York. One railroad official yesterday
remarked, "Why such big business has
not even made it sweat yet" This ap-
pears to be the case, for the Pennsyl-
vania is doing all the emigration bust
ness at its 81 rate from New York to
Chicago. 1t has added largely to its
equipment of rolling stock from con-
Meeting lines and always has supply of
eInigrant coaches at New York ready to
take away all passengers on the arriving
steamers. The Allan steamship line,
which only in summer runs its steamers
to Quebec, found it could not do the bus
iness it formerly did, and has now es-
tablished an agency at Philadelphia, and
runs vessels there direct from Liverpool
and passengers receive the benefit of the
Pennsylvania low rate. Quite sensa-
ton was caused in railroad circles the
other day. by a report, which spread
rapidly, that the Pennsylvania road was
backed in its 81 rate by the government.
The emigrant stated, when questioned
as to where ne got his information, that
he received lit from one of the ships |
agents, who told him about the existing
low rate to Chicago by the Pennsylvania
road, and when he asked the agent how
the road could do business SO cheap the |
seller answered: Between you and me,
the road is supported by the government
and has to do so 'sto draw immigration
from the British territory" While the |
story is not credited it is generally con-
ced that such might be the case, as the |
road is in the best position |
to accommodate such heavy travel as
the government knew would be heaped
upon it when such a tremendous low
rate would bankrupt any of the other
Eastern trunk lines that attempted to
meetit
