While you of the great Mississippi valley have ue omplished wonders of devolopment in your invincible way of twenty years ago, wo of the Pacific const have evolved new wiys to unlock nature’s store houses and make waste places blossom without the immola- tion of o tuch human life. The new ways of the west will soon people the areas of Wyomingz, Utih, Nevada and Idaho with millions of mankina.

With us vast tracts of the land has come into the hands of private individ- uals, not as speculators for @ rise, but as developers of the country on new liuee. Now the land is sold instead of being given o the settler, and perhaps the prices may seem high in comparison. But the expericnee of the past few years has shown that the owner of ten acres of land on the Pacific const has enough for competence and even compurative wealth, Nomes Prepared. are bundreds of individuals and us on the Pacific coast who sell the intending settier his land and prepar itin advance by cultivation, fenc even to the erection of buildings, occupation when he arri Payments on such purchases are made casy that a homoe and an income is put within the reack of the poorest.” ““Then you think the DPacific POOT 1 i L “Don't misunderstand me.

As It is now the settle must not depend on wages in any wreat de grec for a living in that country. “But the man or family that can reach the const with means enough to make u first payment on what land they can culty and to sustain them fora couple of year may go there with the most certain assu ance that the future is full of not promise alone, but realization.

It has broad park-like avenues that cross cach other at right aagles; diagonal strects crossing at right angles, and nearly thirty parks. © As built the eity will follow a system in buildings us well as streets. A number of designs of buildings from iarge unitary homes, hotels, places of business to detached villis and residences have been chosen and, as the colony or company pro- poses to itsell dothe bulding, uniformity of blocks and districts will ba followed. The conveniences of modern lite are pro- vided for, bathing, amusements und utilities weluding transportation, lighting and water services, the distribution of the necessaries of daily life and commercial needs. All theso things ave considered public ucilities and will be managed by the municipality or company somewhit s depicted in “Looking Backward,” by Ldward Bellamy.

The soil lends itself readily to improvements, city and agricultural. In the Sierra Madre rises the Fuerte river, which rans some twenty-six miles distant from the bay and emptios into the gulf. Frouw this river the company has the right to tuke all the water he country s an ircigation it rains only during the rainy season, from the end of Juno to the begin ning of October. The colony has already built for the Mexican government a custom house costing 810,000, and it is obligated to build and put on the gulf a 800-ton steame “The colony has also built a stone wharf and storehouse, made ads, ete. The next thing doue was to dig an irriga- tion aitch from the Fuerte river to the col- ony farm. This diteh is seven miles long and has eight miles of lateral ditches to distrib- ute the water in addition. The ditch is twenty-two feet deep at the headgate; it hus o bottom width of eight feet, und is two-and one-half feet below low water mark. At low water it will carry o stream three feet deep, eight feet wide at bottom and eleven feet at surface, and will irrigate 4,000 acros of lund.

The railroad run from Topolohampo to Presidio del Norte Tex.. a distance of 600 miles. At or near Pisidio dol Norte it will connect with the Southern Pucific and also the Atchison, To- peka & Santu Fe roads. 1t will also cross nd junction with the Mexican ( Jont about 200 *miles from ‘Topolohamps.

When built the road will be owned and operated by the colonists. As to theroad paying that has been settled by a canvass of the coun- tey it will puss throush and the opintons of experts. It is estimated that £,000,000 worth of goods will pass over the road the first yearafter it reaches Vegation, forty miles from the bay. The first forty miles can be constructed for $10.000 per mile, ineluding station buildings at Tonolohampo, Mochis and San Bl It is alleged that the roud will pay interest on 1ts bonded debt and a monthly dividend to stockolders after the tirst five miles have been built and equipped. I'he road runs through a most valuable sil- ver and copper mining district, us, well as agricultural and timber land: Acorulng Benefits, The railrond built, Topolohampo at once assumes an_important and commanding po- sition n the world, both geographically and commercially. Tt has northern, enstern and southern railway outlets and an advanta- geous seaport. ~ Whenever the Australinn and China_mail steamers choose to change their American port of arrival and depart- ure from Sun Francisco to Topolohumpo, as they probably will, they will save three days in time for the mails. Thisis a consideration is not likely to be ignored, when it is romenbered what immense sums of money the Atlantic steamships are spending to make & gain of a few hours in the Atlantic passage. Tt must be remembered that Topolohampo is south of Sun Franeisco and 1,520 miles distant from it by ocean water. Then again Topolohampo is 504 miles neare N i, 195 miles nearer Chicago and 150 miles neaver Omaha than Sfn Francisco is “Topolohampo i to St. Paul than is Puget Sound mpo s the nearvest harbor to ansis City would huve u 500 route, via the Mexican Western railvoud, to the' City of Mexico than it has at present, and the hole Missourt valley is naturally teibutary to Topolohdmpo as” a Pacific port, With these natural advantages given the raiiroad, in the natural course of things the rowth of Topolohampo mwust be rapid.

With such a nucleus *Pacific City” will vise rapidly from its site.
