reach the head Of navigation at Kalis-

tiles to the Northern Pacific railroad.
The construction of q new railroad has
been commenced from the mining CEN
ters of the state to the immense coal
fields in the northern part of the Flat
head valley, which passing through Kal-
ispell, will give her che ap and direct
communication with Butte, Helena and
all points south, and open a ready mar
ket for products of the valley, all of
which, from her geographi cal location,
will necessarily center at Kalispell;
while the natural grades from the mines
and coal fields of the surrounding coun-
try, the cheap and unlimited supply of
fuel, together with the great water
power at her very doors, will make Kali
ispel the smelling center of this portion
Of the state. 1t is already the supply
point for the army of miners and pros
pectors operating in the North and
South forks and the Kootenai min
ing regions, and with her three
strong national banks, she can have no
rival assthe financial center oil the whole
