Northern Pacific Railroad.
The New York Tribune of Oct. 30,
has an article reviewing the progress of
the Northern Pacific Railroad, from
which we extract the following interest
ing facts:
When the contracts for this season
are completed, the Company will have
a permanent business in the great traflic
of the Upper Missouri River, with all
the Government transportation in the
North-West. A few miles beyond the
point where the milway strikes the
Missouri the river bends to the west
ward, and is naVigable for steamboats
for 1,000 miles of voter way from the
railroad crossing to Fort Benton, at the
foot of the ltoeky Mountains, in Wes
tern Montana.
Nearly forty steamer are employed
during the season in the trade of these
upper waters.
In Apr] next, at the opening of navi
gation, there will be a direct communi
cation, east and west, ‘oy rail and river,
from Lake Superior, in longitude 02
‘dcgrecs, to the populous districts in
lWi-stern Montana, in longitude 110
degrees. From this point westward it
is about 400 miles through the passes of
the Rocky Mountains to that portion of
the Columbia River whence it is naviga
ble to the Pacific.
The finished sections of road entitle
the Company to about ten million acres
of land, gl‘ttlltul by the Government,
constituting an area about twice the
extent of Massachusetts. Ten million
contiguous acres belonging t.) thc Gov
incnt are at the same time rendercd
habitable and salable. The lands are
situated on either side 'of the line, and
principally consist of excellent farming
land, with the prmlm‘divc soil character
istic of all the prairie region. Settlers
havenlrcady applied for more than a
quarter of a million of acres. The.
Company has already begun the cancel
lation of its seven—thirty first mortgage
bonds by the proceeds of its sales of
land, and is accomplishing its great
work with success and cuonomy.
There is prospect of a large emigra
tion of the. tenant farmer class from
England in the coming Spring. One
colony alone, recently formed there,
through its poinr'er agents secured a
tract in Clay County, Minnesota, of
185,000 acres directly on the line of
railway. The intended settlement is to
he named Ycovil, after a town in the
West of England whence the inajzn'ity
of the colonists will come. The first
contingent of this colony numbers about
2,000; the remainder will follow in
1.573.
The bureau having in charge the
Land Department of the road has built
and furnished convenient reception—
houses for the free acconnnodatiou of
intending settlers and their families
while engaged in selecting their firms.
One of these is at Duluth, another at
Braincrd, where the road crosses the
Mississippi, and a third at Glyudou, at
the crossing of the lied River. Emi
grants used to trundle with their ox
carts over forlorn and desolate prairies,
and bivouac where the night found
them. It is quite different now. They
are carried in comfort to the very sites
of their future homes—and the organ
ization of the system is such that they
are protected from imposition' or
spolintion from the time they leave their
old homes across the water till they
begin the foundation of their new ones
under the sunset. Every able-bodied
and industrious man and woman who
comes hither makes the nation richer
and contributes to the general prosperi
ty, and in this View the condition and
propcets of the road are a source of
legitimate congratulation. Arrange
ments are making for pushing construc
tion east and west during 1873.
Tux-z " MAD Hocsr;”.—~~We cheerfully
give place to the communication of Mr.
Booth, and commend the spirit in which
it is written. He, however, mistakes
the animus of our previous correspon
dents on that subject, when he attrib
utes to them any other motive than that
expressed by himself. "J. L. 1%.," “ A
mother in Seattle.” and “ M O. B." we
believe are all alike actuated by an
earnest desrre for reformation of an ac
kno“ l’edged evil of the first magnitude,
and not by any spirit of malice, persecu
tion, or personal spitenheir war has been
purely defensive, and will cease with the
removal of the cause, and none would
rejoice more heartily than they should
John Pinnell conclude to adopt, the sen
sible advice ofi'ered him by Mr. Booth.‘
So long, however, as he pursues his
present lawless and nefarious pursuits,
he is a public enemy. a terror to every
virtuous family in the community and a
material obstacle to the progress of the
community in business, religion and
good morals. He uses the wages of
prostitution, of the most debased char
acter, to construct appliances of amuse
ment to attract and lure young men and
boys to his place, where they are sub
jected to the most demomlized and de
praved associations. He advertises
through mimic prints which are base
enough to become his mediums of com
munication with the public, a restaurant,
bar, skating rink, and fancy balls, when
every citizen here knows that all these ‘
things are but subsidiary to the mainl
business of a sqoaw brothel; and it is}
known to many that young bow, as well i
as fathers of families, are attracted tol
this place by mere idle curiosity; but
can no more escape from it without con
tamination than they can touch pitch
without being dcfiled. Every consider
ation of public interest and public de
cency demands that the thing must stop;
“pear-ably if we can; forcibly it‘ we
must.” '
——<.>—-——-
Bunion—Our City Council are tuli
ing prompt and energetic measures to
redeem this city from the imputation of
being the most luwless uml dissolutc
place upon Puget Sound. It hus been
determined to suppress public gambling,
close saloons and business houses on
Sunday, and enforce thc laws vigorously
and impartially. Now, it‘ our police
oifieers do their duty as directed, our
citizens will not be ashamed to have
strangers to look over our town any
duyiuthc week, It will be observed
ulan, that in anticipation of this en
forcement of proper police regulations. ‘
n. [urge share of our vngnhond popuhi—i
tion have left for other parts, and hour ‘
city is assuming the aspect of a. well‘
regulated and lm‘r-nhiding community. l
We may now reasonably anticipate that
by the opening of another spring, pub
lic houses of prostitution and dens of
vice will not openly flaunt their vocations
to the public gaze.
FAIR PLAY.--\\'c know nothing of the
merits of the question discussed by our
correspondent over the above title; but
if there is [my favoritism or nepotism
in the school department of our local
government, it is a proper matter for
public censure, for there is no more
common abuse of official power. or (my
to be more deprecated.

Burton SEATTLE DlSPATCH:«Xotwith—
standing my “ chronic" propensity for
" grumbling," several highly respects»
ble citizens of Seattle (among them
ladies) have personally expressed to me
their approbation of the stand which I
have taken in regard to the “ races."
'l‘hev have Sllitl to me, "if you will thus
hazard yourself to expose a deep laid
scheme to swindle for a few paltry dul
lnrs—why will you not ‘clasp hunds’
with ‘J. L. B.’ and - A Mother in Sent
tlc.‘ and tnlre an equally open stand
nguinst an evil that is snpping the very
lifeblood of our fair city? If dollars
and cents in n Jockey Club placed there
by yourself and othe business men of
Seattlc,aro worth contending for because
swindled nwnv under the garb of hou
esty, why are not the morals and best
interests of Seattle, in which you are‘
renring your children, worthy of your}
energy and support?” or words to this 1
efl‘ect. \
Feeling that their ground is well taken
and their argument good, I have con
sented to give publicity to my views up
on this important subject, through the
columns of the Dismrcn, with your per
mission, Mr. Editor. In reviewing the
communications of ”J. L. B." and a
“ Mother in Seattle," I find those deep
heart felt. impulses of a true woman's
thoughts and feelings, ushering both in
almost every word they have uttered.
A 4 the steam gushes from its fountain,
so do‘those thoughts and feelings flow
out from the deep throbbing of their
‘hearts, such as none but a mother can
know and feel for her child when sur
rounded by peril and danger. They re
inherent. in every true and noble minded
woman; and when excited to action, the
public eeceive the ground Work upon
which are built the fairest. and noblest
structures of Society, in every laud.
Whatever may be the upheavings of a
community when stirred by the deep
impulses of a noble woman, the final
result is always for the best interests of
society. They may not always advise
as to the best means of attaining the
desired end, but their words and actions
lead out into that realm of thought
where are found the cure for all evils,
when properly applied. Therefore,
should I, Mr. Editor, chance to differ
with “J. L. B." and others, in regard
to some of the means suggested by them
to eradicate the social evil as related to
John I’innell, it is hoped that my lan
guage “111 not be so construed as to make
me an apologist for any of his crimes
against the larva of common decency.
Were the mother of this man—that {and
mother, who cradled him in his infancy,
and it is hoped, taught him in the paths
of virtue and honor, in his )oung man
hood—were that mother in Seattle to
day, who doubts but that her mother's
heart would feel the sting and raise the
cry that other mothers in Seattle are
feeling and raising in behalf of their
children and the best. interests of the
society in which they are endeavoring
to rear them? But would that mother
advise as a first resort, the same means
to effect a reformation in her son (and,
of course a cessation of the pollution
complained of) that “J. L. B.” and 3
others have proposed for John Pinuell?
Let us bring this matter home to our}
own hearthstones for a few moments ‘
and reflect upon the course which we‘
would pursue. It is said that “We are ‘
all members of one great family." It“
this be true, :8! us me counsel together. ‘
Let usremember too, that we are not 3
speaking against one man but many.i
John Pinnell is not the only man in l
ISQflflQ or on Puget Sound, who has sin. .
No. 51.
ned against the laws of common decency.
Were he to bring to the surface all of
the influences which have actuated, and
are still uetuntinghiiu to the unhn'ilowcd
course which he is pursuing—were he
to draw the curtain from 011‘ the eyes of
many who are crying out against him.
the community would shudder at the
spectacle, and wonder not so much that.
,a "mad house” is sustained in our midst.
. as that the man who keeps it is so well
hacked by unveiled respectability. Is
‘there not then, a saving clause in tho
case of John Pinnell, that will give him
at least an equal footing with his back
ers in this community? While threat:
ened with violence, with no future be
fore him in which he can see the "good
will of any—is it to be wondered at, that.
he calls around him his friends and (le
fies the popular will until crushed by its
power. Let him be assured, at least as
properly directed, and I am of thelopin
ion that you will strike :1 chord that will.
