BIG BOOSTER CONGRESS.

The Northwest Development Con-
gress which held meeting at Seattle
during the first week of June was the
biggest booster convention ever held
in the state. This was brought about
by the combined efforts of Governor
Hay of Washington Governor Eberhart
of Minnesota, Governor Burke of
North Dakota, Governor Vessey OF
South Dakota, Governor Norris OF
Montan Governor Hawley of Idaho
and Governor West of Oregon. Some
of the most prominent men OF this
entire Northwest attended this con-
vention and took part in its proceed
ings. Some of the addresses were
very able.
The convention was called for the
purpose of locating immigrants in
this state. 1t is particularly pleasing
that the matter of farm improvement
occupied prominent place in their
addresses and shows that the students
of national questions are realizing
the necessity of more farmers and
better farming. The Ranch joins in
boosting movement of this kind. We
do not, however, approve of in
discriminate Immigration to this
country. We do not want to see a
single farmer settle in this territory
who is not capable of self support.
There is nothing more pitiful than to
able homes and come West in response
to illogical real estate schemers. We
have a magnificent soil, an equitable

full of moisture, has been some very
fine growing weather during the past
two weeks and crops of all kinds are
making rapid progress. The straw
berry crop of Western Washington Is
the heaviest which has ever been
harvested. In fact, it has been so
much larger than anticipated that
prices has been badly cut owing to
the unsuccessful marketing methods.
The grain crops in the great grain
districts of Eastern Washington still
report magnificent outlook and few
more weeks will find them out of
danger. Fruits of Eastern Washing

climate and the brightest future of
any portion of the United States;
still nothing could be a greater
detriment than to bring to our
country, people who would lose their
means, become dissatisfied, and not
only become knockers, but probably
a charge on the country. We want
the best class of immigrants; sturdy,
self reliant, and who are able to make
their own way in the world and be-
come useful citizens. We also want
the immigrants who will develop the
country and not crowd into the cities
and become competitors in a market
already over supplied.

He expressed himself, as-.usual, in
favor of temperance. In this he had
the unanimous support of the patrons
present and it would seem that by
the combined influence the temper
ance tight should get strong support.
Altogether the address was probably
the most able he has ever rendered.
That it met the approval of the mem
bers is evidenced by the action taken
by the executive committee and
general body in indorsing his recon-
mendations.
