IT. PAUL, Aug. Al met Governo Toole
OF Montana, on the Northern Pacific train
between Spokane and Helena. He is en-
thnslastlc about the resources of his state
anu certainly they are great and diversi-
ned, but when compared to Washington
they dwndle. But it is very natural for
people who are not personally cognizant
OF the beauties, resources and advantages
OF washington, especially the Puget
sound region to think that they have
glorious country" presume that the
people of Arabia Petra, who have never
been anywhere else think they have a
great country, and so they have when
area IS considered and the hot rocks there
would be splendid for cooking omelets If
they only had the eggs. And they may
have eggs, for all know but the chances
are that II they do have. the hens Law
them boiled hard so that would make the
hot rocks utterly useless for the only pur-
pose can think of at present which they
might be good for.
Governor Toole is AN excellent gentle
man: SO good -natured, well-informed and
pleasant that You wouldn't suspect him
OF being democrat, This, perhaps, ae-
counts for the fact that he. only. of all
the democrats on the Montana state
ticket was elected.
1t is said that TO all things there is a
season" and that is particularly true of
all things in this region just now. Nearly
everything here seems to have pepper in
u. AT any rate everything is doubly
hot.

1t is difficult to understand why st.
Paul and Minneapolis should quarrel
| Both are superb and prosperous cities
and the time is not far distant when the
ten miles between them will be filled up
and they will be one immense city. Indeed
at this writing il is difficult to tell from
the train windows when you are out of
one city or in the next. But then it seems
TO be human nature to jangle and wrangle
I about something. There are thousands
of men who can remember. how. when
they were boys, they used to be on one
side or the other of town boys against
country boys. or Back street versus Front
street, or the north side of the street
against the south side. But when they
had grown to be men all Joined together
In irving to promote the general good.
The Grand Army j. an important affair
to the railroads. at least once "A year. The
windows of all the towns and cities
throughout the eastern half of this coun-
try are blazing with beautiful Autographs
on patriotic subjects calling attention to
the fact that nearly everyone of the rail-
roads Is the nearest way to Boston and
/ the best. and these are supplemented by
1 flaming advertisements in henewspapers
to the same effect. But come to think of
/ II, this Is not strange. all the different
branches of religion are advertising. not
only for ghort season annually, but con-
stantly and vOlumnOuslY. that each has
/ the nearest and Surest route to the grand
encdmpment on the other side of Jordan.
| The Grand Army is. in fact. an object of
much interest when il can be of benefit,
at other times-well at other times.

/ Fairhaven is in the mouths of eastern

more and more so, pretty soon. Every
man and woman in the city should send

about the blessed land of the setting sun.

have heard of little ''ily-up-the-
creek. who has been talking here against
the Puget sound region. He saws the
bottom has fallen ont of that country"
Ii | could come across him he would
think the top had flown up. on him. He
made some money in Puget sound real
estate. and is out here blowing himself
in" After a little he will come back to
Puget sound and ask for a situation as
chambermaid in livery stable. aud then
he wont be so naughty" That. or some
thing like IT, is what becomes of migrate
full liars and back -cappers. That fellow
couldn't buy the same property on Puget
sound which he sold four months ago. for
- per cent. more money.
