The Enterprise of the Southwest.

There arrived in Chicago Sunday
evening. March 10Th, a special train
from Tulsa. |. T., an enterprising
town on the Rock Island-Frisco Sys-
tens. Considerable interest attaches
to this train because its purpose is to
advertise the town from which it start
ed. and it's methods are new and
unique. Loaded with a hundred &C
tive citizens, a full-hedged newspaper
plant. an Indian ConCert band and an
exhibition car, the train cannot but
prove a powerful factor in aiding to
develop that portion of the Southwest
contiguous to Tulsa.
The train will visit nearly all of the
large cities in the central states. At
each stop a reception will be held in
the train, accompanied by the issu-
nice of an edition of the Tulsa Daily
Democrat. giving latest news, ''hot OF
the wires" of conditions in Tulsa
town. The Indian band is a repre-
sentative musical organization from
the territory, under the able leader
ship and direction of Prof. Marshall.
a Creek descendant.
The special train party is composed
of Tulsa manufacturers, jobbers and
business men, who propose to show
Eastern folks the true situation in re-
gard to the development of Indian
Territory. A significant point is that
nearly every city visited has a former
citizen aboard the tram.
They believe in doing things right
in the new Southwest, and the phe-
nomenal progress OF that section along
industrial and agricultural lines shows
what enterprise and ambition will do.
The Tulsa advertising train is another
manifestation of the twentieth century
push that is characteristic of the
Southwest as a whole.

THE RAILROADS BOOMING THE
SOUTHWEST.

The people of Missouri are actually
amazed at the influx of well-to-do
citizens coming from every section of
the United States, and more especial
" from the northwest. north and east.
The question is asked every day by
our home observers, ''What is the un-
usual cause of this substantial migra-
tion?' There are several good rea-
sons at this time for this activity, and
we will offer a few briefly.
The industrial departments of the
railway systems centering in this terri
tory are responsible for most of this
great interest, while local real estate
men have aided in the matter.
One of the most potent causes that
has brought men of means here has
emanated from the traffic departments
of the Rock Island and Missouri Pa
cific systems. In bringing this sec
ton prominently before the home
seekers in other states it has taken no
little time, money and judicious adj
vertising to '.show' those who were
interested.
John Sebastian, passenger traffic
manager of the Rock Island System,
has probably done more in this mat
ter from his department than any one
other single agent recently, and the
results are the most. telling locally.
The appreciation of our people re-
garding bis great work cannot be ex-
pressed in idle words. Writers and
artists have been sent into this field
to CLEAN facts, data and illustrations
showing our resources and advantages
as to favorable immigration. These

Rock Island Builds Hotels For It's
Employees.

Contract has been awarded by the
Rock Island System for the erection
of a hotel building at East Moline. ILL.,,
neal Rock Island, for the accommodate
ton OF its employees. The hotel will
be two stories in height and will take
care of about $50 men. 1t will be
thoroughly equipped with steam heat,
electric light and shower baths, to-
gether with a reading Don and "
eral other attractive features. 1t is
hoped to have it. ready for occupancy
by the middle of September.
This is another evidence of the
commendable policy of the Rock Is
land System to make the days work
of its employees agreeable, and to sur
round them in their tasks with provis-
ions for their comfort and entertain
ment.

out to reach strangers who we're not
acquainted with what we have here.
The best metropolitan press have been
utilized in giving to the reading pub
lie throughout the country these same
facts of definite value in presenting
our many good things to them.
The result of Manager Sebastian's
active campaign has brought thousands
of letters to our local real estate men
making inquiries relative to every fac
tor pertaining to farms. ranches. stock
raising, orcharding and industries Of all
kinds. Home-seekers who are in deep
earnest write for further information
and every train brings in individuals
to look over the different features for
their own benefit. while the stated ex-
Cursions on each railroad bring in
groups of strangers who have read of
the good things and come to see them.
They invariably do business, while
many locate here permanently. This
is what the railway people are doing to
aid in the development of our country
and Manager Sebastian of the great
Rock Island System is doing his share
toward bringing us prominently to
the front. In the map above of the St.
Louis-Kansas City extension, it will be
seen the road runs directly through this
fine, new, desirable country, which
is just becoming known to the world
as a paradise for people of thrift.

People who live in Colorado some

that Colorado has no more wind than
Eastern states, and not as much as
many Eastern points.
We are apt to notice the wind more

Retired farmers and retired busi-

1t is not only the health seeker who
finds Colorado climate desirable. All
classes of people are beginning to
appreciate that we have but one life
to live and why not live that amid the

Colorado has reason to boast of its

who seek climate. Nothing adds so
