steamships the minnesota" and

ties in handling immense freight

pointments for passenger travel

oriental trade. The North Pa
citic Route to the Orient is rap
idly becoming a popular one and
now that the two palatial
steamships, minnesota" and
Dakota" have been put in CON-
mission, there is no question but
that a further greater increase
in our trade with the Orient as
well as increased passenger trav-
ell to Asiatic ports will be inau-
gurated. The first sailing Of the
"Minnesota", in addition to car
rying the largest cargo to the
Orient ever carried by any ship
in the world, as we'll as an extern
sive passenger list. augurs we'll
for the future.
The "Minnesota' will sail on
it's next voyage to the Orient on
Saturday, April Doth, and it will
not be amiss to say here that
the excellence OF her passenger
accommodations will be herald
ed to the travelling public OF tie
United States by all who enjoyed
the pleasant voyage across the
Pacific on her first trip, as fur
nishing the acme Of travel COM
fort. The fact that the superior
accommodations OF the Great
Northern Steamship 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.

Tramp Settler Geing

Medina Citizen: The days OF
the tramp settler and the illegal
homestead holder are about
over. The best evidence if this is
shown by the solid car loads Of
household effects and farm i'm
elements OF all kinds as well as
supplies which are arriving al
most daily at our station now
shipped here by the people who
are coming in to occupy their
government homestead not in
slane alone but in actuality.
This should be evidence enough,
Tor anyone, OF the value OF our
land. Our new settlers are all
coming from the thickly settled
portions OF the older states and
appreciate very much the value
sof a free government homestead.

ARE ASKED TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS DEPARTMEN
READ THIS TO YOUR BOY.

Judge Wofford, OF Kansas City,
inta recent address to boys, gave
some advice which, ii needed
would soon revolutionize the
country. 1t should be read to
every boy in the United States:
II have been on the bench four
teen years and during that time
thousands of boys have been
brought before me but not one
~ them was q constant atten-
daht atchurch or Sunday school
or obedient to his father or mo-
ther.
III have inquired OF many boys
what caused them to get into
trouble and have in most instan-
ces staying away from home and
school, playing pool, hanging
around saloons and cigarette
smoking are responsible.
start right, boys. To be any
body, to accomplish anything
fcr yourself or the community,
you cannot be idle. Don't drink
liquor destroys the mind and
body. Don't swear-sentlemen,
do not. It is low and vulgar.
Don't read trashy literature.
It leads to the devil. Don't hang
around saloons. Good men are
not made that way. Whenever
Won see a man lying around a
saloon the devil is after him and
will get him soner or later.
BENJAMIN Franklin would never
have accomplished anything if
he had been guilty OF these
practices. Be honest above all
things. Poor boys make the
best future citizens.
TO make q good man you must
be a good bow. So start right.
The graveyards are filled with
those who started wrong. The
teachings of Christ are beginning
to be felt. Let me impress upon
you the only way to success is
by living a right. Be honest,
Industrious, frugal. 1t is not
necessary to be sanctimonious-
to wear a longface. Keep laugh
ing. Have a good time as you
go through life, but let it be the
right sort OF a good time. If we
we're all angels the world would
not be fit to live in

Pm goin'-what's the harm?
l want a crack at ham and eggs
And products OF the farm.
An there I'll havemy Ellen Smitt
When his exprm breath
Proclaims that Dad has bought
the earth
And starved hisself to death.
