$40 RATE To
WASHINGTON
LOWEST ONE WAY COLONIST
/: RATES EVER MADE WILL BE
AID TO SETTLEMENT OF WEST.

No news has been received by the
people of Washington and Oregon
during the last twenty-four months
is so important as the announcement
that the transcontinental railroads
will make rate, beginning March /
and continuing until April 80, from
Kansas City, Omaha, st. Paul, Min
neapolis, Winnipeg and other simil-
iarly situated towns, to all main line
railroad points in the two states, for
$25.
The people of no state in the union
have profited more by these one way
tickets than have those of Washington
during the last four years. The rate
from Chicago is $33, from ST. Louis
$1,000, with proportionate low fare
from all points in the United States.
This should add many thousands of
actual settlers to the population of
the Pacific Northwest. These are
one way tickets, and if travellers de-
sire to return to their former homes
in the older eastern states they would
have to pay full fare.
Every Commercial club and adver-
Using bureau in the state, as well as
every real estate firm should begin
Immediately to advertise these rates.
Every citizen should write personal
letters to old friends and acquain-
is good to their town. But the ticket
must be bought to the point of des-
tination-it's just as cheap to the
most distant Oregon or Washington
point as to one just over the border

Dick struggled to a sitting posture,
