Tie management of the Chicago q
Northwestern Railway evidently has
an abiding and steadfast confidence in
Central Dakota. Prompted hy this
confidence the company has built nearly
thousand miles OF railroad within the
limits Of the territory. with absolutely
nothing in sight as q lecompcnse save
the broad and houndIesS prairies--vet
these same praiiies, with IN underlying
soil of unsurpassed fertility, have
yielded their increase TO the efforts of
thousands Of sturdy yoemcn. each Of
whom are ready to testify that conf
donce in the productiyeness and poSsi-
bilitiCs of Central Dakota has not been
misplaced.
There is q large number Of people
throughout the East ho would like to
see this truly wonderful country but
have been deferred from gratifying
their desire by the expense OF the trip.
To remove this obstacle and enable all
to visit Dakota who have any desire to
do so, the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway has arranged to run three llar-
vest Excursions, on Aug. 1S, Sept. s.,
and Sept. -, for which tickets can be
bought at prices ranging from $1,000
to Sl5 90 for the round trip from Chi
cago.
The ordinary "land explorers stop
over will be allowed on these tickets,
and they will be good to return any
time within 20 days from the time Of
sale.
Never since Dakota began to attract
attention has there been SO good an
opportunity for tie people to see ana
form their own estimates Of its merits
as the ones now offered.
Tie season is most aptly chosen, be-
ing after the harvest, so that its results
can be seen at a glance, and the rates
are made so low tless than one cent per
mile. as TO he within easy reach of all.
This railroad company Is now construct
ing several new lines in Dakota which
viii open up vast tracts OF government
land hitherto unoccupicd. and these eX-
curSions will enable the land seekers to
prospect and locate c.sNslS in a new ter-
ritoYy along the new lines OF railroad.
These excursions lave but one object
III view--to advertise Dakota, to give
all interested tangible facts III proof Of
its pre-cminent success as Il farming
country. To this end the Northwest
ern Railway Company has made the
rates SO low That all who have amy in
terest i'm the wonderland can easily af-
ford to make the trip, and satisfy them
selves.
All information required will be
promptly furnished on application to
your nearest ticket agent, or to X. >.

importance in my estimation, ] hope
that we here ia South Dakota can unite
with the North III some way 10 accom-
plish our desired object. We have antag-
oni2ed North Dakota too much. When
the North sent Col Pat Donan to us TO
fix up some scheme for division we then
wanted too much. If we could have
settled the matter then and given
the northern territory the name of
North Dakota and taken the name Of
South Dakota for ourselves we probably
could have accomplished something.

we do. and would be glad 10 see the
question put TO vote of the people.
