Persistent Effort Will BE Made all Along
the Line.
General Passenger and Ticket Agent
Whitney has sent the following circular
to agents of the Great Northern and from
the tone of it, the company will make
every emdeavor to bring settlers into the
northwest.
1.-The possibilities of the Great North
ern company have never been exploited.
A large harvest, rich mineral strike or
other circumstances advantageous to
other sections result in cheap excursion
rates to attract the attention of home
seekers, the prospector and investor; but
the Great Northern country raises it's
bountiful harvests produces it's tons of
minerals, it's unequaled lumber year
after year, and will do so for uncounted
years, while millions of acres of pro-
ductive farming, timber and mineral
lands lie idle for the reason that the
people necessary to develope the re-
sources Of this vast section do not re-
ceive the same opportunities to investi-
gate it's agricultural, forest and mineral
advantages, as are given to other less
favored sections by the cheap excursion
rates, made from time to time, to in
vite inspection and immigration.
Therefore, the Great Northern COM
pany, beliving its paramount duty to
be the development of it's territory trib
utary to it's line of road, and believing
the interests of such territory and the
people who have setteled therein can
best be fostered and subserved by the
further settlement and developement of
the country and it's resources, hereby
announces one way and round trip
settlers excursion rates, which, it is be-
lieved, will aid in accomplishing the
objects for which they are inaugurated
