holds forth to the industrious and

advantages which the Northwest
holds forth to the industrious and
energetic are not imaginary but
real. This is why they have a
resistless drawing force that in a
few years will people the vacant
places in the state and dot the
plains where, but a brief time
since the Indian and buffalo
roamed in complete possession,
with centers of industrial and
commercial activity.
It calls for no vivid exercise of
the imagination to perceive in the
steady immigration into the state
evidence Of its rapid progress.
The agricultural and other re-
sources Of North Dakota are tre-
mendous and immigration is
bringing the people to develop
them, SO there can be no doubt
concerning the realization Of our
fond dreams as to the future great
ness of the goodly land that has
become our inheritance.

IMMIGRATION AND PRO-
GRESS.

The stream Of immigration con-
tinues to pour into North Dakota.
Thousands Of people in search of
homes have arrived this spring
and the great majority of them
will remain in the state hence
forth. As a rule they are honest,
industrious and ambitious men
and women who will prove a valu-
able addition to the population Of
our commonwealth. We welcome
them to North Dakota and wish
them all the success they antici-
pated might be theirs when leav-
ing their former homes.
The steady influx of new people
into the state is most gratifying.
There are several reasons for view
ing the matter in this light. First
it is evident from the constant
yearly arrival of new settlers that
the advantages which North Da-
kota affords have become some
what generally recognized and ap-
preciated abroad. This is ap-
parent from the fact that people
are leaving their homes in Iowa,
New York, Pennsylvania and
other eastern states and coming
here to reside. This they would
not do were they not thoroughly
convinced Of the fact that the op-
portunities which this state offers
are far in excess of those which
the various sections of the country
from which they hail can present.
North Dakotans realize this fully
and it gives them pleasure to lie arm
that the fact has so generally i'm
pressed itself upon the minds of
the people in other parts Of the
country. It affords all the assur-
ance necessary that there will be
no check in immigration until all
the vacant lands in the state are
occupied and Jul population has
increased to an extent that will
enable North Dakota to take rank
with the great and influential
sister commonwealth Of the
union.
People who have come here, es.
tablished homes and prospered.
are glad that the country still con.
tinues to attract others in great
numbers, thus proving that the

A SAFE CALLING.

Ages of experience have demon
strated that farming is the best Of
all occupations because it brings
the most happiness and the great
est contentment. It is an indie.
pendent calling besides. No man
SO truly lives under his own vine
and fig tree as does he who tills
the ground for a living. Give a
man a good farm, health and a
moderate amount of energy and he
is fixed for this life as we'll as he
can be. Ambition may urge him
on to seek greater things, but no
matter what his measure of sue
cess may be, he will never see
better days than when he dwelt in
peace and contentment on his
farm amid his focks and herds.
Farming is also a certain cal
ling. There are fewer failures in
farming, relatively speaking, than
in any other line of business, and
the fact that it is attended with
but comparatively little risk rend-
ers it all the more desirable as a
life pursuit. This is a point
which, were it always born in
mind as it should be, would do
much to lessen the growing tend
ency among the country bred to
rush into the cities where fierce
competition proves the ruin of SO
many.
Then the farmer spends his life
in the most desirable spots.
There is really but one place to
live and that is in the country.
The farmer breathes the purest
air on earth. The foul vapors, the
SCOT and smoke Of the city cannot
annoy him, because he is beyond
their reach. In a large measure
he raises his own living and he has
no one to blame but himself if the
choicest fruits of the earth in their
first freshness do not find way to
his table.
Thousands who pass their lives
in the cities continually envy the
farmer and well may they do so
for his lot, if he did but know it,
is a fortunate one. Who can be
more pleasantly situated than the
man who owns one Of Ramsey
county's fine farms. and has the
industry to till it thoroughly? AS
sure as the rains and dews fall SO
sure is he of reaping a bountiful
harvest every year, for the land is
rich and never fails to reward the
industry that is bestowed upon it.
The merchant and the banker may
go down amid the crash of a 6nan-
cial panic but the man who owns
free of incumbrance a Ramsey
county farm has nothing to worry
about. Panics, by lowering the
price of farm products may lessen
his profits for a season but cannot
sweep him off his feet for beneath
them there is the safest of founda-
tons. There is nothing like this

THE EXAMINERS STORY.

John w. Mackay is authority for the
statement that the contract for the first
section of the cable between the United
States, the Hawaiian Islands and the
Philippines has been let. He arrived
last evening and is at the Palace Ho-
tel, with the intention of spending
about two months on the Coast. He
spent the evening chatting with John
Rosenfeld, Richard Dey. Edmond God
chauX, and later discussed the gigantic
project that has just been launched by
him and his associates. Dir. Mackay
said:
There are three big cable manufac-
turing concerns in the world-the
town Works, near London, and SiemenS
Brothers plant. The contract for the
first section of the trans-Pacific cable
has been let to the second of these
firms. and the price is 100000 sterling,
about $4,000. 900. The contracting COM
pany has the entire work to do OF
providing the landing stations and lay
ing the cable. This first section will be
$500 miles long. including the slack, or
about 2.1S0 miles in a direct line from
point to point. The work will have TO
be turned out rapidly, as it Will take
seventy-five days to bring the cable
round the Horn, and IL is to be in
place ready for use on September l.
1902. We are then going straight ahead
for Manila as fast as possible, a dis
lance of $500 miles. This second por-
ton Will, we hope, be finished in from
two to two and a half years time.
THE Commercial Pacific Cable has
nothing more to do with the contract
until the work is finished. Estimates
were called for some time ago, and
there was to have been a meeting in
London on November 18th, but ii takes
