Van Horne's farm, at East Selkirk, tinned off two excel- lent crops of red clover. •• -The Pioneer, the organ of the Do- minion Alliance, edited. by Mr. F. C. Spence, says the right thing to do in Ontario at present is "to limit the member of licences and rigidly enforce the law." Just exactly what Premier Whitney's government is doing. Seems to us, that the. Alliance advo- cated some other remedy not long ago." -A despatch from the Northwest says -"J. T. Brown of Souris was the unanimous choice of the provincial rights party at the nomination. Brown is a prominent Liberal lawyer of Moosonnin and was one of the most prominent supporters of Walter Scott in the last Dominion election. The Conservative candidate withdrew in his favor. Haultain grows stronger daily and many Liberals are deserting the Scott party." -The weekly crop report of the C. P. R., from the Northwest, shows wheat cutting practically completed. Threshing has been delayed for some days by rain, but weather conditions are now satisfactory. From 15 to 30 per cent. of the crop has been threshed and considerablee of that has been marketed and is' being shipped. The average yield in most districts is high- ' er than was expected, ranging from 20 to 30 bushels. ••: -Count Okuma of Japan considers that Japan had no need of further ter- ritory, as a result of the recent war. He says :-"Japan has acquired an overshadowing preponderance in Ko- rea and Manchuria. In any event Japan has made a giant stride from an island to a continent and planted there a steady foot. We stand on the threshold of unprecedented expan- sion in a momentous field of enter- prise, and before the dawning of one of those eras which shape the fate of a people." -Tinder the treaty formerly exist- ing xisting between Britain and Japan the one power was bound to help the other in case of attack upon one by two hostile powers. Under the new treaty Britain and Japan agree to help each other in the event of attack by a single power at any point in Asia. This, according to some authori- ties, guarantees Japan against an at- tenpt by Russia to recover in another war what was lost in the last, and is the Machine, itis past history be. speaks him not airworthy of it position winch, considering the vast ftlttlre of those Provinces, is perlutpe a8 tumor. taut as any that ever was filled by a political leader in this conntry-, Ile will undoubtedly have great difficul- ties to encounter. The foreign ilrrnri. grants of those Provinces, strangers many of then to constitutional gov- ernment, form only too apt materials for the exercise of official influence and the working of the Machine, That the Machine will be worked to its full powers of evil has, to our ser - row and the disgrace of the Legisla- ture and of the community, already appeared. On the other hand, 1llr. Haultain will receive the sympathy throughout the Dominion of all, what- ever their party title or badge, who set the country above party, inched, nen every Liberal who is not a Liberal only in name, bub is true to the uni- versal principles of the Liberal creed." • -The outlook for the poor is any- thing but hopeful in the old lands. Statistics of pauperism for England and Wales are said to be alarming. Despite the dread of the poorhouses, 233,000 people are now in workhouses, and more than half a million are re- ceiving outdoor relief. Il► agricultural sections there has also been distress. Iu Spain also, there is distress. In the section in which suffering exists, the population is almost entirely agri- cultural, and large numbers depend upon their daily wage. In this dis- trict the rivers have for years past been filling with sand, and this year a two mouths' drought entirely destroy- ed the crops. Two hundred thousand people are unemployed, and the Gov- ernment has voted $800,000 for relief. Greater than the suffering in Spain, infinitely greater than the distress prevailing in England, is the calamity that has overtaken Russia. Millions of peasants in the Empire of the Czar are actually starving, and, to add to the horror of the situation, pestilence in the form of cholera is following upon famine. What the condition of things will be in winter, even if in- ternal war does not add to existing horrors, may be conceived. A•• -Cobalt and its wealth have been concealed in the territory, now known as Ontario, since the flood. Ontario is not exceeded in her average of wealth by any commonwealth on this continent, which means on this earth. This great province, with all its re- sources, with its treasury overflowing with Money, does not know what it owns, and has been too stingy and un- enterprising to try to find out. On- tario should organize her Crown Lands Department so that the timber re- sources of this province would be ex- plored and catalogued down to the last stick. Ontario should prospect every mineral area, and thus the pro- vince would be in a position to know what its resources are, and to adopt the best means of developing these resources. Ontario has had too much of the politics that merely clings to office, and not enough of the politics that strives to do the greatest good to the greatest number. Politics should be business in the best, highest and noblest sense. If a private individual owned such a heritage as Ontario owns, would the owner sit down and wait, as Ontario has waited, until somebody else mapped out the resour- ces and discovered the -wealth of that heritage ?-[Toronto Telegram. ••• -Another triumph of the principle of arbitration has just been achieved. It occurred in a remote corner of the world, but it evidently works just as well there, and it settles a dispute of long standing. The members of the Arbitration Commission have been twenty-nine months on the ground, personally examining the peculiarities of the land, and studying the histori- an assurance that an invasion of India cal evidence.

Vanatone, Solicitor movement, says 1 - "In Alberta the results of the American invasion are astonishing. - Between Calgary and Edmonton, a distance of 200 miles, one may travel along the line of the iailroad from house to house, and five out of every six people encountered are Americans. Thirty thorlsand people have settled the country between these two towns. - Both Calgary and Edmonton are hustlingiare a Avnet can cities and so r sear* of smaller towns, ranging north- ward from the Montana border.

Ralf a million head of cattle have been hrouglat over in this way, and 10,000 cattlemen and cowboys now range over the region. They build no fences and confine themselves to no especial territories. Their cattle range like buffalo. But these Americans are far sighted, like their brethren along the railroads and in the towns. They . foresee that in the near future the vast prairies will be homesteaded, and they have all taken claims and are working toward. citizenhi . "Already Alreaul}• there is a graving aarista- cracy. Many farmers who live far from towns move into thein during the winter. Medicine Hat is now the 1 Newport of Canada's prairie lands.

Up to March, eighteen ranchmen and nearly twice as Many wheat growers had built winter homes their, some as fine as one would see on a fashionable street ire a large American city. The farmers and ranchmen also gather in the winter at Edmonton, Calgary and other college towns. All of these things are tending toward the up - building of a new nation, "Look at that house," said a Mani- toba farmer who.took up a homestead four years ago. It was a comfortable, modern dwelling to which he called attention, but near it was another building, a rough shanty made of logs and hoards, with a grass -thatched roof. "Four years ago," he said, "I lived in Iowa with a $2,000 mortgage hang- ing over me. Taxes and interest were eating me up. I came up here, got 160 acres of land as a gift from the Canadian Government, and for two years my family and I lived in that shack. Now I own that house, and every board in it is paid for. Eighty acres of my land are under cultiva- tion. My wife and my children are well fed and well clothed for the first time in years. Do we want to be an- nexed? I guess not !" Strained Back And Side. "While working in a saw mill" writes C. E. Kenney, from Ottawa, "I strained my back and side so severely I had to go to bed. Every movement caused vie torture. I tried different oils and liniments, but wasn't helped till I used Nerviline. Even the first application gave considerable relief. In three days I was again at work. Other men in the mill use Nerviline with tremendous benefit too." An honest record of nearly fifty years bas established the value of Poison's Ner- viline. Clairvoyant Medical Examination Free By DR.
