VIII Fowle returned Monday from
Michigan and reports having had a
most delightful trip and highly en-
joyable visit with relatives and friends
at his old home, from which he had
been absent twenty-three years. He
went by way of Portland, San Fran
cisco and New Orleans and returned
via Chicago, st. Paul and Minneapolis,
spending two weeks in Chicago. He
says great deal of interest was mani
tested i'm this state wherever he went
and that thousands of hOmeseekers are
taking advantage of the low rates now
offered at stated intervals by the rail-
roads.
San Juan county ought to have some
capable representative ut Seattle now,
we'll supplied with reliable literature
descriptive of the county, to interest In
this section some of the thousands OF
who are now coming to
the Sound country. The business men
and land owners of the county could
well afford to pay the expenses OF
wide-awake and reliable man for
month or two, during the high tide OF
the spring immigration, and II they
will do so the ISLANDER will keep him
well supplied with descriptive iitera'
ture, and will do more ii necessary.
Now is the time to rustic for settlers.
