If YOU are going west bear in mind
the following facts: The Northern
Pacific Railroad owns and operates
9S7 miles, or 81 per cent. Of the en-
tire railroad mileage of Montana;
spans the territory with its main line
from east to west; is the short line
TO Ieleuar the only Pullman and
dining car line to Butte, and is the
only line that reaches Miles City,
Billings, Bozemau, MssouIa, the
Yellowstone National Park and, in
fact, uiue-tenths of the cities aud
points of interest in the territory.
The Northern Pacific owns and
operates 62l miles, or % per cent of
the railroad mileage of Washington,
its main line extending from the
Idaho line via Spokane Falls, Cheney,
Sprague, Yakima and Elleusburg,
through the centre Of the territory
to Tacoma aud Seattle, aud from
Tacoma to Portland. No other trans
continental throgh rail line reaches
any portion of Washington territory.
Ten days stop over privileges are
given on Northern Pacific second
class tickets at Spokane Falls and

tending settlers on excellent oppor.

there is no tariff duty on any wheat,
grain or meat imported to England
They often talk about the blessings
Of English free trade. And if the
absence Of tariff upon wheat doesn't
make the grain dearer in England
why should it make it dearer in
TimbucJoo? Why, indeed? Besides
which, those wheat growers, and
they are In a decided minority OUT
side Of the late convention, who ob-
ject to protection, say that a tariff
makes blankets dear, so that, surely,
a tariff upon wheat imported into
any country ought TO make it dear
But these free traders complain that
when foreign country levies a tar.
if duty upon American wheat the
effect is TO make wheat cheap. The
reasoning is hardly as clear as il
might be. If a tariff on wheat
means cheap wheat, why don't a
tariff on blankets mean cheap
blankets?
We will tell the farmers why
wheat is cheap in Liverpool: it is
because whenever it is in danger of
reaching high price the ryot-grown
wheat of India comes into competi-
ton with it. Farm labor in India
is worth 81 per month, without
board. We Will tell the farmers
how the American price Of wheat
can be increased:
/. BY producing less wheat. Bat
this j. not to be thought Of
.. by SO increasing the number
Of artisans and traders, which con-
sumo but do not produce wheat, as
greatly to enlarge the home demand.
And this protection Is doing.
3. To open South America mar
kets to United States productions Of
all kinds. This would increase the
demand for wheat in two ways, dI-
rectly by exports of United States
wheat to South America, and indi-
rectly by increasing the number of
men employed in making and sailing
United States ships to southern
ports, and also by increasing the
number Of men employed in max
ing machinery, cotton goods, and
other articles which the ships would
carry to southern ports. All these
men would consume much wheat
and produce none. But, unfortu.
nately, the free trade majority in
the wheat-growers' convention would
oppose subsidies to American ships,
and without subsidies we can not
have a great foreign trade.-Ltter
