COLONISTS FOR OREGON.
OR. & n. Officials Compile Stats
tics for Six Weeks.

Statistics are being compiled by the
passenger department of the Harri-
man lines, showing the number of
people coming into the state on the
present colonist rates. A careful tab
ulation of the tickets taken up by the
o. r. & n. and Southern Pacific
shows the number of new settlers
that each station on the allied lines
are getting.
Assistant General Passenger Agent
Scott has found the following totals
of colonists coming into Oregon over
the Hartman lines alone since the
rates were made effective on the last
week of August: Week ending August
81. 124; week ending September s,
562; week ending September Is, 1924;
week ending September 23, 1901;
week ending September 80, SCI.
As the rates last fall were not Of
fered so early as this year, there is
no fair comparison with last seasons
travel. However, the figures show a
large increase generally over the
number of colonists arriving last year.
