LOW RAILROAD RATES
Scarcity of Labor in Northwest De.
CideS N. p. to Make Them

So urgent has become the demand for
laborers in the Northwest that the
Northern Pacific Railway company has
decided to make reduced rate from the
East to all points in Washington and
Oregon to induce men Of the working
class &c" come to the coast. Effective
Tuesday, the company offered rate Of
$25 to the two Northwestern states from
Missouri river points, according to an.
nouncement confirmed at the Tacoma
Offices OF the company.
These rates will be good only in par.
ties OF twenty or more. where one tickek
is used, and will permit those taking ad.
vantage of the reduced tariff access to
the day coaches only, giving them no
Accommodations in sleeping cars or diners.
The rate applies from Duluth, st. Paul,
Minneapolis and Missouri river gateways
to north coast points. The s25 tickets
will also be good from intermediate
points where the fare is now in excess of
$25.
