A New Era in Transpacific Transpor-
fation.

A New Era in Transpaclfic Transpor-
tation.
The Great Northern Steamship COM
pany, in placing in service between
Settle, WASH, and Yokohama, Naga-
saki, Kobe, Shanghai and Hongkong,
the magnificent American-built steam
ships the "Minnesota" and the "Da-
kota," marks a new era in transporta-
ton facilities between the United
States and the Orient. These magnifi-
cent steamships with their superior
facilities in handling immense freight
cargoes and the luxurious appoint
ments for passenger travel has given
an impetus to our Oriental trade. The
North Pacific route to the Orient is
rapidly becoming the popular one, and
now that the two palatial steamships,
tMinnesota" and Dakota" have been
Dut in commission, there is no question
but that further greater increase in
our trade with the Orient as we'll as in
creased passenger travel to Asiatic
ports will be inaugurated. The first
sailing of the minnesota in add
tion to carrying the largest cargo to
the Orient ever carried by any ship in
the world, as we'll as an extensive pas
senger list, augurs we'll for the future.
The minnesota" will sail on it's next
voyage to the Orient on Saturday,
April 29th, and it will not be amiss to
say here that the excellence of her pas
senger accommodations will be her
aided to the travelling public Of the
United States by all who enjoyed the
pleasant voyage across the Pacific on
her first trip as furnishing the acme OF
travel comfort.
The fact that the superior accommo
dations of the Great Northern Steam
ship company in connection with the
comfortable journey afforded by the
Great Northern Railway to Seattle, the
sailing point of the minnesota" will
make this route the popular one from
Occident to Orient.

SUNSHINE LAND.

They came in sight OF a lovely shore.
Yellow as gold In the morning light;
The suns own color at noon it wores
And had faded not at the fall Of night
Clear weather or cloudy twas all as one,
The happy hills seemed bathed with the sun
Its secret the sailors could not understand,
But they called this country Sunshine Land
What was the secret?-a simple thing
ct will make you smile when once you know:
Touched by the tender finger Of spring,
A million blossoms were all aglow;
So many, so many so small and bright,
They covered the hills with a mantle OF light;
And the wild bee hummed, and the glad breeze
famed
Through the honeyed fields OF Sunshine Land
II over the sea we two were bound.
What port, dear child, would we choose for
ours2
We would sail, and sail. till at last we found
This fairy gold OF million flowers.
Yet darling. we'd find. if at home we stayed.
OF many small joys our pleasures are madei
More near than think. very close at hand
Lie the golden fields Of Sunshine Land.
