It will readily be understood by every one. except he who is willfully blind. that the interests of such a community must be closely identifled with the people and capital of eastern cities. and that their business relations require the very best possible mail facilities. And yet to those honest. hardy. daringpioncers who have opened up for you that mine of marvelous wealth. and who are daily adding so much to our sources of national prosperity. you begrudge the poor privilege of two daily mails leading in. as they do. from two of the most important railroad thoroughfares in the Northwest.

These two lines leading into the Hills one running over two hundred and fifty miles and the other two hundred and ninety through country with little or no settlement. have bridged streams. improved roads. and constructed ferries over rivers. and by stopping at no expense by way of coaches and equipments have made the long and tedious journey not only tolerable but pleasant. On the route from Bismarck to Tongue River. a distance of three hundred and fifty miles.
