Governor Mcconnell has received a
letter from the Chicago Times Herald,
which states that that paper has estab
lishcd home seekers bureau. the object
Of which is to furnish people with reli-
able Information regarding the advan-
takes Of various localities. and asking
that the plan be laid before any who
may be- offering inducements to settlers.
All that is asked by the bureau, is
that the expenses Of man making an
investigation. shall be paid, and upon
his Endorsement, the weekly Times will
give the locality good writeup, and the
bureau will do all in It's power 20 inform
inquirers concerning the locality in
question.
Why would 1t not be good idea for
the people OF Payeite valley to take adj
vantage of this offer, and have our re-
sources published to the world The
cost involved. II IL were borne by the
valley In general. would be but trifle,
while the benefits that might be derived
from such a course are incalculable.
What the valley needs is to have her
advantages set forth in clear. forcble.
manner, In medium that will reach
the greatest number Of people of the
class we desire 20 reach. We can hardly
hope for better opportunity at such a
nominal expense, to reach prospective
settlers. therefore let MS take advantage
of this nller and be ndNerlised.
