IMMIGRANT RATES

Usual inducements.

A letter from F.. G.. Leedy. general
emigration agent for the Great North
ern. to Secretary Richards Of the
chamber Of commerce as secretary OF
the Montana Association Of CONNER
cial Club. Secretaries, announces that
the Great Northern has authorized
homeseekers' rates to Montana for
1913. These rates will be effective the
first Tuesday in March and will con-
tinue In effect until the first Tuesday
in November.
This action on the part of the Great
Northern marks the end OF long
campaign conducted by the Montana
Association of Commercial Club Secre-
taries. For a time 1t was feared that
the rates were not to be granted this
year as action was 30 long delayed on
the part of the railroad. The matter
is still pending with the Chicago, Mil
waukee and st. Paul and the Northern
Pacific railroads. However, there IL
very little doubt but they will be
granted according to the encouraging
replies sent in answer to letters of In
quiry concerning the matter.

PARIS, December 20.-When the
worlds peace congress begins its ses-
sions either in Paris or Versailles in a
few weeks the United States and Great
Britain will be found shoulder to
shoulder with all misunderstanding
cleared and present difficulties to unity
of endeavor removed, according to
Lord Northcliffe.
In an interview he said such differ
ences as may exist today are but
results to be achieved in this busi-
ness of forever tying the hands of
the mutually hated Hun. The North
cliffe statement is particularly sig
nificant in view of the charges made
that France and Great Britain had
allied themselves as. against the
wishes and desires of President Will
son in many respects.
1t also may be stated definitely that
President Wilson has cleared away
to an immense degree all misunder-
standings as to his desires and pur-
poses as may have existed in France
Italy's Demands.
The chief difficulties to concord be-
