The great number of homeseekers taking advantage of the low rate of $25 from St. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth and $30 from Chicago, warrants the conclu sion that thousands of people have their eyes turned to the west and will undoubt edly settle among u, and every assist ance and aid within our power should be given them in order that we may secure them as permanent settlers in thia ter liiory.
