The Official Paper Of San Juan County
THURSDAY, JANUARY 3Ord, 1896
THE QUESTION OF SETTLEMENT

Evarv business man in the county,
every farmer who has any good lana
to sell, every citizen who is interested
in promoting settlement and deVelope-
ment and the establishment of new in
dustries to increase the tax roll and give
employment to labor, should attend
the meeting at the court house tomor-
row called for the purpose OF organizing
a county board of trade, or, as the call
saws, a County Immigration Society,
to act in cooperation with the state
society" Such cooperation is of course
desirable to the extent of furnishing
reliable information relative to the
county's varied advantages for settle
ment and investment, but The
ISLANDER ventures the suggestion
that the proposed organization should
have q somewhat broader scope than
that of inducing immigration only.
Our greatest need is capital. We want
men of means to come among us anO
neries, creameries etc. to take care of the
products which the people who are al
ready here can supply in abundance.
We want purchasers for our lands who
have the means and the inclination to
make Improvements, and if we are not
able to show them that they can reas-
onably expect to reap fair margin Of
profit as reward Of industry and
thrift, we need not expect to get that
class of people to settle among us. We
must not expect to win by any false
pretenses. The stranger who comes
within our gates has 3 right to know
the truth, the whole truth and nothing
but the truth, when he comes as an i'll
tending settler. He is not likely to be
particularly interested in the boom
prices fer hay, grain, fruit, vegetables
and live stock which every farmer
could easily get half a dozen years ago.
He does, However, want to know what
he can get for such things now. He
wants to know what he can produce,
how much of it, what it Will cost him,
where he can sell it, how much will be
paid him, the rate of taxation, the
price of land, the cost of transportation
and of labor, tools, clothing and pro-
visions independent of the products Of
the farm. These questions and many
formation a board of trade, or immigra-
ton society, whatever it is called, must
be prepared to furnish.

Now that rates of steamboat fares
have been advanced again-and not
without some reason, it must be adj
mitted-THE ISLANDER ventures to
suggest that it would be a good plan
for the steamboat owners to sell family
Communication tickets, at reduced rates
for stated number of trips, and good
for the use of any member of the family
in whose name the ticket is issued, and
at any time while the boat is on the
route. 1t would stimulate travel and
be a convenience and saving to
