Wiuuiueg of course is the o'the to thresher 1s "hub" and growing faster theta ever THE voice of steam and the other four or five larger titles on the plains have more than doubled their population in the 5 years, Regina hila 40,000 ; Moosejaw, 18,000 ; Saska- toon, 20,000 Edmouton, upwards of 53,000 and Calgary over 6t,000, Last week the writer completed his 14th or 15th trip to the West since 1882 but has not beau there during the last 5 years and the results of half a decade are astonishing, especially iu the cities where business seems brisk and at ceu- teal points in nearly all of them traf1a seems as much cougested as the corner of Queen and Young streets in Toronto. The crops in general are so far good, In Manitoba they are lighter than iu Saskatchewan or Alberta. Not so much straw anywhere as I have . seen but a safer crop than an extra heavy one, easier to harvest and thresh and a better sample generally. If frost keeps off until the wheat is matured they will have a bumper crop with Manitoba a little short in their average. Owing to the wet Fall last year and Farm r being to tillable to do usual e s amount of Fall plowing, there is a great deal of oats, barley, &c., late sown, which wilt not likely escape frost, but they will cut this mostly for Winter feed for their stock. It weather conditions are good the early wheat should be in full cutting by 2otb inst., and all the best of it in stack or wheat bins by the loth of September. Tbe next two weeks is the critical tine and the tem peratures will be consulted hourly for that time at least. - Everybody is cheerful and hopeful, even in Regina where four streets on each side straight through from South to North. where hundreds of houses and some large public buildings were scat- tered to atoms by the cyoloue, hundreds of people ruined, uothing left them but the clothes on their backs, are still hopeful and at work trying to provide comfortable quarters for the taming Winter. Sister towns and cities are helping them considerably and Saskatchewan government has come to the rescue with a large sum. Regina is going to be a better city in a year from now than it was before the cyclone. The splendid optimism of the West 'is certainly e0eouragiog even to the aged and although Ontario is losing yearly thousands of our very best young men and women we should net complain as it is the young man'sand young women's country, the only big wheat field ready for the plow in the civilized world. We cannot stop them and they are still citi- zens of this Great Dominion and we should not regret their going. We do regret and have good reason to do so, that good old Ontario, the ban• her province of older Canada was "hoo- dooed" in September lastby annexation. marked "bogies" and flag waving into depriving Ontario and older prov- inces of the chances we had been try- ing to get for the last 40 years of getting population to replace those who are go- ing 10 the West and raising farm land values to something near their produc- tive value. We don't know yet what the new government may da but we know that they are pledged not to do and fight as they will and lay out schemes to placate the people ot the West. Tbe time is coming and sooner than expected, when the people of this Dominion will get the benefit of the greatest boon that they ever had an opportunity of obtaining and the great- est mistake that Canada ever made dur- ing her existence will be rectified, The game of the 21st of September I911, cannot be repeated. The West means just what the result of the late Saskatchewan says they mean. Ontario the worst black sbeep in the whole lot is "thinking" and the mistake they made a year ago will never be duplicated. Notwithstanding the efforts of the big protected interests and the noble i8 in Toronto National conditions, social conditions, geograpbical and commerci• al conditions are all working in that direction and the next general election will likely be a greater surprise than the lack. Yours very truly, J LECKIE. OUR WINNIPEG LETTER ' gem/ more heard In the land and we hope this May prove one of the busiest Seasons On record, WHAT are you getting ready for the Fall Fair in the way of an exhibit ? Dont leave it uptil the last minute, Brussels Fair will be October 3 and 4, Wane should Canada do as her fair share to Great Britain's naval suprem- acy ? The offering should not be small nor mean but along the line of what the motherland has devised for this Do- minion, Heaping measure is one way to illustrate loyalty. Do you thiukyou could "get a move on" this Fall to help advance tbe in - terests of Brusseis? Prospects are better than they were and a good strong g push right now might mean much for the tuture. Don't let it all end is talk. Get a few dollars invested in some- thing and bustle. ONE of the liveliest Presidential "scraps" is slated for November in the United States. It will be a:three corner- ed tussle as far as party nominees is concerned but it may be spread over seven corners before the ballot is pre- sented. If all the pledges and promises of good could be realized the United States might stand a fine chance of establishing a branch of Eden. The forces of evil are not asleep however. IF the issuing of warrants for the ar- rest of many more members of the Detroit city Council proceeds much further the meetings of the Board may have to be held in the jail if a quorum is wanted. Contractors who offer the bribe or other interests who attempt to purchase the powers that be should also feel the "clutch" of the law and be taught that there is a straight route for doing business. WRY don't you go to church regu- larly ? In addition to the good you might get your example would have a tendency to stimulate others. The church has a claim on you and your financial help. If all the churches and kindred institutions were closed you. would soon see a condition of affairs not creditable to men and women. It is the balance wheel and also the main- spring of much of the success of life's machinery. HAVE you made your Will? You have put it off a long time and jollied and joked about it but a more sensible thing would be to arrange your busi- ness affairs while in health and strength that at your going away your wishes would be carried out on account of decisions you bad arrived at in your last Will and testament. It does not follow that the preparations of such a y paper would hasten your demise. Do `ft now. WE think it is up to Canadian rail- ways to give a 2 cent a mile passenger rate. There has been a lot of talk a- bout it and the Governments were al. ivs "going to see about it" and yet emat''at the same old notch. A howl is kicked up if a passenger gets on a car with a ticket a day past the Emit, a condition of affairs that sbould never exist, as a railway ticket ought to be good a year after its issue where the cold cash has been headed over for the same. Monte Schools will open on Tuesda Y , September 3rd. It will be well if a goodly number of candidates would at- tend, where they do not purpose going to the Normal, so as to aid he remedy- ing the great shortage of teachers. Next year will not afford much relief, to the situation unless this is done owing to the Normal period continuing for a good portion of a year. There is ample '4 room for the expenditure of a large share of wisdom in the Education De- partment to set in motion machinery that will conduce to better educational Helpfulness thee exists at present, ANoTbeglt rose with a thorn has been discovered at one of the boundary towns. The customs . officials nabbed some parties who bad bought new shoes and to evade the duty, as they thought, put the leather, on their feet and carried tbe has-beens in a parcel. The ofi4oer collected the rate to the die appointment of the bargain bunter. An excursion party in Easterly Ontario was beld up on arrival free) a Yankee town and made settle forthe geode they were etnuggling. 1t will be all the better for Canadian tradespeople if the law is more rigidly enforced as tbe Amerlcan Merchants are reaping the benefit of the trade that is done, Col- lecting the duty is the way to stop the pfactiee, Everything points to the fact this year's harvest in Manitoba and the other Western provinces will be a "bumper" one, In two weeks 11 is ex- pected that harvesting will be in Lull swing, and the agricultural itnplemont houses in the city State that their agents all over the West are confideut that the crops will be heavy and in splendid condition by that time. Some of the barley crop has already been cut and has fulfilled the expecta- tions of the farmers, but more of it has yet to be harvested. Wheat is ex- pected to be heavy in most places, so that the general opinion is that this year more men than ever will be re- quired all over the West to assist in the harvest operations about the arid. dle of tbe month. All this poiuls to the success which has attended the efforts put forth by the farmers of Western Canada this year and shows that' the prosperty still continues iu the bread basket of the Empire. It is a very certain sign of good crops when the farmers begin to order many new binders and other harvest- ing implements. '1'ttis is being done and most of the local implement houses are working* at full pressure to keep up with the demand. The de- mand all over for new bindets, etc , is very great, in fact, it will be one ot the record years in this respect, All the travelling agents ars busy sending in orclers for numerous 'things, and they all report that farmers every- where are making great preparations in readiness for the harvest. 'thresh,. ing outfits are also selling well, and many new machines are being, de- spatched out to various points to the prairie provinces. The implement firms ur the city state that the demand for harvesting machines of every' type is very great, and the next week will bean extremely busy ane.

"Wibuipeg," save J. S. Willison, of the Toronto News, wbo addressed the Canadian Club here "is Canada." There is no other city in the Dominion which is so representative Of the Dominion as is Winnipeg. It is a city of the West, and it has been made largely by the people of the Fast. It represents the whole country better than Toronto better than Mout-• real, and better than Vancouver. It is the typical end characteristic Can - adieu metropolis." The delegation from the Chicago Chamber of Commerce, which visited Winnipeg and the Canadian West re- cently made a report to the foreign trade committee of the chamber upon its return to Chicago. This report re- ters in glowing terms to the reception which the delegation received in Win- nipeg and generally throughout the West. Concerning Winnipeg, it says in part : "The city is being managed iu a manner that is not excelled, perhaps by any municipality in the world. It would be impossible in any city to find men al a higher type, jetlged from any standpoint, than are the municipal officers of the city of Winnipeg. The most serious matters with which they are concerned are those of the muni- cipality. There seems to be a deter- mination on the part of each official not only to do his dutv, but to do all that his capacity will permit to ad- vance the interests of the city. The growth of Winnipeg is marvel• lous, when it is remembered that thir- ty years ago it was a mere trading post with only a handful of settlers, At Ibis time it owns, controls and operates nearly every public utility, including power, light. heat and water supply. In the tearer of local gov- ernment, it it only fair to say that the Canadians have a superior form and conduct public affairs for more effi- ciently and capably than the seine are conducted in the State. Americans who have become citizens of Canada when interviewed, if it state that they are better satisfied tisfied with the con- duct of public affairs in Canada than they were when they were citiz:.us of. the United States, and for that in be- coming citizens of Canada they have surrendered no part of the liberty which they had enjoyed in our country, but feel they have a greater security in the protection of the law in the country of their adoption than they had here." Governor Wilson of Presidential Nomination Governor Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, was °faraily intortned Wednesday of last week that he had been chosen by the Baltimore con- vention as the nominee for the preei- dency of the Democratic ticket. Briefly and simply, the governor was notified of his nolninotion by Senator ettereeeeeeketee Agree 0 1 WOODROW WILSON James, of Kentucky, who emphasized as be said that the governor had ob rained the honor untrammelled by obligations and unembatassed by affiliations of any kind, The governor, 111 delivering his speechof acceptance read from man, uscript. The platfeitn, lie said, was not a program, but a praetical ,doou- ment, intended to show "that we know that the nation is thinking tie it is Most concerned boot, and whet &boot." The 11e0pl0, be added, `were abent to boas ed not pfk1'ti01tl0ly to service, not our own. The governor pointed oet that 111 protect the resources of the people and to keep open Cha doors of op- portnnity the party was face to face "with gltestions of forests, and water- power's and mines and waterways and of the bending of au adequate mer- chant marine,' Tbese things he said, has caused trouble heretofore, • to the >mele) because they had been "too often handled in private conference." Of the tariff, Lhe nominee declared emphatically :— "There should be an immediate revision, and it should be downward, ,pnbesitatingly and steadily down- ward," The revision, he explained, should begin withschedules 'which hich obviously used to a eta hem been most, y kill competition and extended to every item in every schedule that afforded any oppoetuuity for monopoly," and the system of taxations so ad- justed that they will fall where they will create the least burden. Not wishing to give the int- pression that be held that competion can be established by taw "as against the world-wide economic tendency," the governor added that he did not believe that business done on a large scale of incorporation was necessarily dangetous. 'I ale not afraid of any- thing that is normal," 3m said. "The general terms of the present federal anti-trust law forbidding Coln. bine,tions in restraint of tt•ru1e have apparently proved inefficient.. The means by which trusts have establish- ed monopolies now have become known. It will be necessary In sup- plement the preemie late with such laws, both civil and cl'illtinal as will effectually punish and prevent these methods, adding such other laws as niay be necessary to provide suit- able and adegtate judicial processes whether civil or criminal, to disclose them and follow them to final verdict and judgment. In closing the governor declared that a presidential campaign might "easily degenerate into a mete teemed contest and so lose its real dignity and significance." "There is no indispeusible man," re- marked the nominee. The govern- ment will not collapse and go to pieces if any one of the gentlemen who are seektug to be entrusted with its guidance should be left home." The governor's view was that men were only as important as the cause they represented. In nominating Wilson and Marshall Gee Baltimore convention picked two men essentially simnel.. Both t en travel on their brains rather than on any magnetic or picturesque person- ality. Neither one has a "barrel." Neither is a particularly good "mixer" as the professional politician uses that term. Neither has ever held any political oflice except the one he is now filling—that of governor. Each bas heel to achninisiet discipline to his pert y bass—Wilson to Smith, and Marshall to Taggart. But most of all are they alike in the quality of their minds and iu the refreshing way in which they can by sheer lucidity of expression pack powder into a sen- tence or a phrase withone resource to buncombe or the au cora borealis kind of rhetoric.

INTIMATE. GLIMPSES OP WOODROW \WILSON -He has never used tobacco 111 any form. He is the son of a Presbyterian Minister and is a member of the. Pres- byterian church. He is almost blind in Otte eye, with which he can see only directly to the front as a result of an accident in youth. No one would suspect, to look at him, that his sight was impaired. He is an expert stenographer, and writes his speeches in shorthand, which is later transcribed by a type- writer. His recreations are walking, horse- back riding and golf, the lust of which he plays poorly because of his defec- tive sight. He wears eyeglasses for near - sigh tedness. His hair is getting thin on top and he has his scalp massaged by an ex- pert once a week. He }has three daughters, Eteanot, Margaret and Jessie, who play golf and ride horseback with him. He is an accomplished painter. He is the greatest story -teller in ,politics since Lincoln, nearly always 1 Illustrating his point with an apt tale He is tt great sleeper, requiring (and usually getting) ten hours a nignt. If he gets less for two or three nights, he turns in and sleeps fourteen or 111 Leen hours at a stretch. When very tired he goes for an automobile ride and sleeps as the machine runs. One of his daughters is an ac- complished musicialt, One is a painter and one is a social settlement worker. His Summer hone at Sea Girl's is owned by the State and overlooks National Guard rifle range. 18 YOUR COLD BETTER? No, it's as bad as ever. Nothing seems to help. Why not use the up- to-date specific "Catarrltozone," which drives out cold in one day. Inhale Oatarrhozooe and you will be relieved in two minutes. Oontinne the treat- ment and cure is fissured.
