We read a whole, lot during the last
presidential, campaign 'about the edu
cational fampaign that was then pop
ularly supposed to be in progress.
An eductattonal campaign regarding
the west, its soil, climate, and the
habits of Its people, is Just now be
ing quite fulfilled, its mission is very
eppareut when letters such as a:
mentioned in yesterday's paper re
garding a fabulous valley, are written
In sober earnest, by persons of intelli
; gence who are seeking a more en
joyable place in which to make their
home than they have so far found.
We refer to the letter from a resi
dent of Kansas, who evidently had
teen Informed that there ia a valley
In this pHrt of the Northwest .where
there are, but a few hundreds of
families, with room for loon home
steads, to be had from the govern
ment for the asking; where 'the sur
rounding mountains are covered with
the finest of timber, also free to the
settler. Vulgarly speaking, the Mter
writtr has been given a wrong hunch.
Borne 'gazabo has had a pipe dream,
r Ywinufactured on r.nd passed t
:on T his neichbor. The man who
WTote'the letter Is not to blame. Very
vague ideas of our country, climate,
resources and people exist in certain
sections west of the Mississippi, and
It Is up to such organizations as our
Commercial club to institute tti cam

our habits.
Almost any home-seeker would Rsk
about such a locality as this man fce
livs to exist: and Vet. if he Is the
kind of a settler the west needs and !
desires, he would much rather learn
of a valley, such as ours, where he
may buy improved farms at reason
able prices; where there are towns
ud villages, farms and orchards;
where there are markets for produce
and labor. It is much better that
prospective settlers know Just what
to expect when they start toward our
country than to let them believe fairy
tales, with the consentient and certalD
disillusionment.
