CONTRASTS THE
TWO SECTIONS
SOME WISE WORDS FROM A
WEARY WILLIE
Tells of Arid Country Conditions
and Judges Falls City and
Environs.
A hobo editor wandered into
the Tribune office with a hungry
story and the following is what
he gave us for the price of a
ineal:
Montana was for two years
the state upon which James J.
Ilill centered his efforts to bring
settlers. The state also appropria
ted $150,000 to this end, and cer
tain portions of the East were
fairly flooded with “boom” lit
erature. And it was literature,
alluring in color, enticing in
phraseology, convincing. All you
had to do was to tickle the soil
and raise fifty bushels of wheat
to the acre, while an empire of
range would fatten cattle fit for
top price in a close market. A
town site was laid out every five
miles along the Great Northern,
and settlers came literally by the
thousands to get their 320 acres
of paradise.
Then came the drought. The
stunted prairie grass was as dry
and brittle as glass. The inevi
table ensued for the forests on
the west caught fire and as you
know, the mightiest destruction
of forests in American history be
gan. That killed the mountain
range and made a sight I never
wish or expect to see again. The
prairies caught fire and burned
as black as your hat from Cut
Bank to Culbertson—300 miles.
We didn’t see the sun for six
weeks—if I weren’t a hobo I’d
say that it was like the portray
al in Byron’s “Dream” when
the earth swung black and void.
Something pathetic to see those
who had come so hopeful, placed
their all and their toil, flocking
into the towns, the wife:-and
babies to go hack to relatives, the
man to stay and try, uselessly, to
sell his machinery and the house
hold goods. Perhaps some of the
old-timers in Nebraska may re
call something similar here in the
early days—hut not to the Mon
tana degree, for so many were
not involved.
It made a few tramps and you
of Nebraska take the advice of
one of them. Don’t go.to any
arid country without enough
money to live at least two years
with no income and paying doub
le price for all you buy. Labor
is high, food is high, the sum
mer climate ideal, the winters
ong and severe. What do you
w:.nl to leave for anyway? The
urod country is always just a
1. ad, somewhere else. This Falls
Ci'v has corking good reputa
.vs up the line, 1 heard of it
way beyond Omaha and every
oil: i town between here and that
city envies your reputed pros
perity. I’ve seen more new hous
es in a two hours walk around
than in any town I’ve been in
and I struck a few. Go out into
the country and see the fat cat
tle and well-bred horses knee
deep in bush grass and hear the
satisfied grunt of the Nebraska
hog, come in agam and see how
many home folks are going shak
cy, pat yourself over the paving
and improvements and railroad
shops nnd then take down your
Longfellow and read that little
tramp poem.
Stay at home dear heart and rest
Home keeping hearts arc hap
piest,
For those who wander, they know
not where
Are full of sorrow and full of
care
To stay at home is best.
