In 20 days under the rates the O R and N transported 7164 home workers to Oregon and Washington points, from Sept 15 to Oct 15. Last year 8477 traveled in 60 days.

Harriman officials deserve commendation for granting special colonist rates. Of 7000 people who came west during the rates, most will settle there if not already gone. Hope remains that railroaders continue broad minded rate grants, a strong method to populate the West.
