uoMEsEEkERs' TICKETS TO BE
SOLD IN AUGUST, SEPTEMBER
AND OCTOBER.
Northern Lines Have Decided to Re-
sumo Excursion Rates Which
Prevailed in April.

Northern lines have decided to again
put into effect the homeseekers' rates
which were in effect earlier in the year,
the action being taken Independent OF
the southern lines.
Announcement has been made that
there will be two selling dates in each
month of August September and Octo-
Der. The homeseekers' tickets will be
sold to all points in Washington east
of Wenatchee on the Great Northern,
east of Ellensburg on the Northern Pa
cific. and to all points on the O. R. &
n. Spokane rates will apply to Re-
public, Kaslo, Nelson, Trail and other
northern points. The round trip rate
from ST. Paul is $445O to Spokane, and
from Chicago the rate is $50.
The former homeseekers' rates ex-
pired in April, and the new dates Of
sale now announced are August and
16, September and 20, and October 4,
and IS.
The action of the railroads at this
time in granting the rates comes as a
SURPRISE as the companies have eX-
perienced much trouble from scalpers,
who in the past have done an extern
sive business in this line of tickets, and
for time the railroads have been con-
sidering the abolition of the rates en-
trely. The southern roads have as yet
made no announcement that they will
grant the rates, but it is thought that
they will fall in line with the action of
the northern roads. Tickets will be on
sale to points in Montana and east
during June and July, but no tickets to
this state will be sold during those
months.
1t is probable that the granting of
the reduced rates will bring to this
state a goOdly number of prospective
settlers during the fall months. At
that time the eastern farmers have all
