points should take no other line than
the Northern Pacific Railroad.
This railroad, with its main and
branch lines, has brought into com
munication with the east all promi
nent.sections of tbft great northwest.
It i 4 the only line traversing Mon
tana and Washington. It is the on
ly line running through trains from
the east to and through the state of
Washington. It iq the short line
from St, Paul to Butte City and He
lena, Mont., Spokane Falls, Wash.,
and Portland, Oregon, and the only
all rail line to Tacoma''Ami* Seattle,
Wash.
~ Under present car arrangements
Pullman sleeping cars and furnished
tourist sleepers aro run via the Wis
consin Central, and Pullman Palace
Sleepers via the Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul, and Northern Pacific
from Chicago through to the Pacific
coast without change.
In addition to this service the
Northern Pacific runs on its through
express trains regular day coaeheß,
dining care and free colonist sleepers
from St. Paul to Tacoma and Port
laud.
The Noithern Pacific line allows
the bolder* of second class tickets to
stop at Spokane Falls, Wash., and at
all points west thereof, ten days at
eaqn place desired. This will enable
settlers to thoroughly examine »ii
lands for sale m the new state before
selecting a permanent location. No
other line offers holders of second
class tickets an opportunity of exatn
ing all sections of this great state
without th? payment of additional
fares of from (*5.00 to $20.00.

Ail Injurious Go-Between.
The veterans of the war for the
anion are beginning to recognize
in the pension claim agent a kind
of bacillus which consumes mil-
The claim agent thrusts himself
between the pensioner and the
treasury and relieves him of a very
large amount of his money in the
shape of “fees.” There are well
authenticated instances where poor
negroes, justly entitled to pensions,
have been literally fleeced by the
claim agent. In one case where a
negro mother was entitled to some
$3,000 back pension due her son,
who had been maimed in battle
and afterwards died, she had been
robbed of all but $l5O of it by a
cheeky claim agent Some of these
clear SIOO,OOO to $150,000 and
more a year through their exorbi
tant “fee” system, which is little
short of robbery. It is these claim
attorneys who got up most of the
extraordinary forms of pension
paying and lobby them through
congress. They get enormous
slices of every pension appropria
tion.
Tho secretary of the interior has
suggested the dethronement of
these blood suckers by a rigid sys
tem of fees. But why should there
be any pension claim attorneys al
lowed? Every person entitled to
a pension can get it himself by ap
plying to the commissioner with
the proper proof. Any claimant
can procure the blanks himself and
fill them up when he applies. The
mostexplicit instructions are print
ed by the government Blank
forms of application are printed by
all the special G. A. ft. organs.
From time to time other newspa-
S)rs give similar plain directions.
nly a few days ago a New York
paper printed the form of applica
tion for pension with plain direc
tions.
