Plan* for Two Brick Building*
I>rawa —l.arga Immlgraltoa
Shohosiisb, Jan. 9. —The new year
dawned most auspiciously upon this
city. The accumulated capital, tbe
enlarged manufacturing capacity, and
the plans for large and costly new
buildings, within the present year,
point to a remarkable growth for the
future. Indeed, few towns on the
Sound of the same size, are so ablaze
with activity and improvement as is
this. Two large brick buildings are
already planned and the construction
of the«e will soon begin. One is a large
structure by L. Wilbur, to be used as
a drug store. It will occupy the site
of the present building, which
wiii be moved to another
locality. The new building
will occupy one of the l*~t sites in the
city- the corner lot which wa< recently
purchased bv Mr. Wiibur from E. C.
Ferguson. The second is projected by
H. S. Burns, and will occupy the pres
ent site of AM. Blacktnan s grocery
and Ihe Gold Bar restaarant, which
building will lie torn down or moved
elsewhere.
Among the immigrants at present
in swift inflow many men of capital
may be noticed, who are liberally in
vesting in Snohomish real estate.
The past month's real estate trans
fers aggregate sio,ooo. In the oppor
tunities afforded here for a large real
estate business it is a marvel some
one does not make it a specialty.
The Hypotlienuae Kallroad.
Ellensbnrgh Localizer.
Work on the railroad from Ellens
burgh to Port Eaton will begin early
in the spring. This piece of road
when built will bean important link
in the cut-oil road that is to connect
with the road being built from Cheney
westward. The line in contemplation,
when constructed, will make a
saving of distance of from 90 to 100
milesi It will lie tbe road
for passencer travel and the lightning
express. The saving of time will tie
some four hours in favor of the new
route over the one via Pasco. Thon,
too, Ihe line will traverse a good agri
cultural country on theea.t side of the
Columbia river nearly the entire dis
tance. In time the hypothenuse road
will lie one of great utility to the V I'.
company. Next year will be a busy
one in railroad construction in eastern
Washington.

A committee has |>een selected by
the |«eople here to represent them at
Washington city, in the matter of urg
ing the opening to settlement of the
Yakima Indian reservation, and thus
placingon the market nearly a million
acres of the finest land in the world,
all of which borders on and will be
locally tributary to this town. This is
a matter which should have been at
tended to a long time ago.

Meiina Pinancier
Jir. LiUinj" recent work on the
geography of the Argentine Kepublic
offers a ntis< of valuable statistical
matter regarding that interesting
country. The population two years
ago « given at 3,003,670. and at the
rate of immigration daring the last
t*o rears it must to-day be Terr near
ly SjwO.OOO. not a large number, it is
true, but judged by results a most in
dustrious and progress ive nation.
The population of the City of Buenos
Ay res is now very nearly 450,000. or
some >u more than "thai of the
City of Mexico. It ia an interesting
fact that the City of Buenos Ayres
should contain an eighth part of'the
population of the entire republic,
and it is well in this connection to
rernemlwr that the country is largely
agr'cultural. and so feri ile as to tie
able to support the activities of a large
urban population of merchants, man
ufacturers. bankers and officials. The
City of Mexico contains only a thir
tieth part of the population of the na
tion of which it is the political and
commercial capital. Were this coun
try proportionately as well populated
with active producers as is the Argen
tine Kepublic we might reasonably ex
pect to find I,ooo.oooinhabitants in the
chief city of the country, but, unfor
tunately. Mexico i- apparently unable
to attract immigration, a fact partly to
be explained by the hostile attitude of
a portion of the pre** to foreign immi
gration unless it be made up of colo
ni-ts of l.atin origin. So such senti
ment prevails in either the Argentine
Republic or in Chili, countries where
a provincial prejudice against foreign
ers no longer exists.
And. '•peaking of immigration, it is
interesting to note that from 1871 to
189fi inclusive there landed in the Ar
gentine Republic 893.5M9 immigrants,
while the emigration from thecountry
dnring the >-anie time was only 259,303,
there remaining consequently as per
manent residents foreigners.
Of late immigration into the country
has l>een increasing rapidly, and for
the tlr-t nine months of 'his vear the
figures show an inflow of 105.155 colon
ists. as against 77.51!) arrived during
the same (>eriod of 1887. The Buenos
Ayres Stawlard estimates the total im
migration for 1888 at 175,000. The
same journal, which is noted for its
general accuracy and lack of desire to
exaggerate matters, says: "Next year,
according to advices from Italy, a still
greater hegirawill take place from the
Mediterranean: and what with the
fortunes that Italian farmers will
probably make this season out of
wheat and the misery in Europe, ow
ing to the failure of the crops, it is not
at all improbable that the immigrants
that will llock to this country in 1889
will exceed 350,000 in numbers."
A quarter of a million of immi
grants. largely industrious Italian
farmers! This prediction should ar
rest the attention of the press of this
country anil compel newspaper writers
candidly to examine into the causes
which contribute to the growth of the
Argentine Republic by foreign immi
gration, while Mexico can hardly at
tract a few thousand of colonists
yearly. Let ihe journalists of the
country reflect on the hostile attitude
too manv of them assume toward* ex
i-ting colonization companies and
tneir too frequently exhibited dislike
for foreigners. It will not do to place
the hlame on the government; that
will not explain why it is that there
prevails to-day in Europe an impres
sion that Mexico is not friendly to
foreign immigrants. Nobody is com
ing to dwell where he is given a cold
and grudging welcome. lie will rather
prefer to betake himself to more
friendlv cjuarters.
What immigration, welcomed, fos
tered. worked for. has done for the en
terprising Argentine Republic is to t>c
seen in the wonderful ri-e in the value
of landed property there since 1882,
when it was es i mated by Miilliall at
$527,000,000. and is *et to-day by I,at
zina at 10.000.000, gold, a fi-e of 50
|>er cent In these figures the value
of the national territories are not in
cluded. In these vast domains we
find a source of great wealth to the
nation, for the *>2,000 square leagues
of national land are, at a moderate
valuation, worth f156.000.000, gold.
Here is the foundation of the national
credit as it is taken into calculation by
European capitalist" and hankers.
The area of cultivated land in the
republic is placed by Mr. at
1,897,525 hectares, producing grain to
the value of $*5,293,185.
