terest tn those seeking new homes. He
said TO reporter:
Though one Of the youngest, I be-
lieve that Montana IL the most pros,
porous state in the Union. am not
able Ut this time to give you complete
returns from my work, except In
Lewis and Clarke counties. where,
with property valued at twenty EIGHT
million, the total amount OF mort cages
10 only three million. sm convinced
that this ratio will not be changed
when the entire returns are known.
Already this state 10 second only to
Colorado in the production of precious
metals, and the wealth of these sur.
rounding mountains has only begun
to be found. Yes sir, I came from
Iowa, but she is TOO SLOW, for me, and
I expect to locate In Montana"
To all classes Montana presents
openings. Ifyou are q capitalists and
desire to invest safely and profitsbly,
plenty of chances sre ready. DO you
want to mine? The mountains and
hills are practically unexpIored. Do
you want to farm, raise hores. cattle
or sheep? The Yellowstone valley is
open to you. All classes and condi.
tons Of men and women can find
something to do with brain and hand.
