Back about the fifties a young man from Western Canada went west. He prospered and finally developed into a railroad magnate. He saw the ad- vantages 1 to be gained in time and transportation facilities by a north- ern railroad connecting St. Paul with the Pacific coast. He tried to gain an entrance into Tacoma, Wash., a splendidly situated city on the Puget Sound. The Northern Pacific had already run a line there and naturally the magnate and the N. P. bucked each other. At last nothing stood in his way except the purchase of a right of way and the Indian reservation near Tacoma. Finally the time was near for the Indian chieftain to sign the agreeâ€" ment of purchase, when suddenly it was announced that the Indian had met a sudden death, and with that incident Tacoma was abandoned for the time being and'the road run to Seattle on the other side of the Sound. A well equipped road was run across the plains. through the mountains and over Washington state to Everett, then Seattle. There were fast trains and electric lighted cars and the influence and money of Mr. Chas.

The Pacific coast is as different from Montana, Idaho and Texas and other states of cow-boys and pistols as these states are from the east, and there are many things purely characteristic of Seattle and the coast that space prohibits telling. Seattle is one grand conglomeration of happy-gO-Iucky ideas, people, mo- rals, fashions and customs. It is a new city, and while many wonderful things have come "out of the west" it is not improbable that another generation will see Seattle emerge from chaos into a city, stable in commerce, clean in government and cultured and refined.

I say nothing about the district west of Moosejaw, nor the Edmonâ€" zton district. because the former is best adapted for ranching. and the latter has not yet been opened up sufficiently to tempt much settleâ€" ment. Its time is coming. \vhon tho unoccupied lands in the eastern part of the territories is settled. In conclusion I may say that it is simply wonderful how prices in land are climbing. A young fellow 01 my acquaintance bought land in Manitoba four years ago at $4 and sold it three weeks ago for $11, clearing a modest fortune. Land at Moosejaw, which fiVe years ago sold for $7, is now selling at $35. The school land adjacent to Sas- katoon sold lately at $107 per acre. with the excellent crop that is as- sured this year there is every pros- pect of an impmcedented rush next year to the land of the boundless prail fie.
