Unlimited Resources.

The Chicago Times editorialIy speaks
of the Puget Sound country:
Washington territory is on the eve of
becoming a state of the Union. Its ad-
vance has recently been rapid both in
wealth and population. There is much
in its resources and its climate to rec
commond it 10 emigrants. The dry sum-
mers so distressing in California to per.
sons accustomed TO occasional rain-falls
in that season do not occur in a terri
tory where humidity is such that irriga-
tioE need not be resorted TO \
y The region OF Tuget Sound
IS rich In minerals and the territory IS
capable of great agricultural develop
ment. Were the United States to be
come as it ought n great commercial
nation the north Pacific would develop
a mighty empire. But We encourage
manufactures at the expense of that free
interchange of commodities that would
make US factors in every market of the
world, and give us n nserchaht marine

ARGUS, a representative of this paper in
terviewed number of the leading men
of this city regarding the building of tine

every case the answer was strong in the
belief that the road would be built.

J. B. Sheppard-Will have a railroad,

D. NJ Littlefield-Am positive it will
be built.
r. C. Calhoun-No doubt about it's
coming.
J.. NJ. Pontius-Sure to come.
G.. +. Clapp-1 have more faith now
than ever before in it's coming.
Mayor Learned-I believe it's COM
ing.
3. S. Miller-Prospects good. In fact
the railroad is assured.
T Hammond-Since 1868 1 have be-
lieved railroad would be built, and now
am certain.
Leslie Cullom-I am confident the
road will be built.
Geo. Sheehan-It's coming.
F. w. Pettygrove-An assured fact.
Justice Wood-Looks favorable.
J. Z. Clarke-Am confident it will be
built.
The reporter heard numerous remarks
while passing along the street that the
railroad is an assured thing. The citi-

be derived from the building of the road,
and are doing their utmost for its sue
