ROBERTSON, -Fur some time 1 have been thinking to write you and let you know that your paper has been a wrlcotre visitor at our home here in Edmonsun. It gives so much of for home news which we all appreciate very much. We were very 'sore to hear of Mr. fait's death ;. his friendliness will be missed on the streets of Gtdericb. I suppose you have been hearing all kind. of reports of Edmonton and naturally thinking that we are in or near about the Arctic circle and frozen up for the winter. 1 must con- fess that. 1 have been gladly diaappnir ted ..long this lige, and as briefly a. I can I will give a skett:h of how I have found tbe weather and climate here. I arrived bele on the 5th of ray. On my way here I pawed through a snowstorm down neur Saskatoon. There were about four inches of ..now and we expected when we would stet through t.. Edmonton that everything would be plucked with scow ; but to our surprise they had no sign of snow here. Instead there wee bright, warm. beautiful weather. Tbie con- tinued so except for some very hot day. in June, with quite often a nice shower of rain. which wt.. mostly, in the evening or at night. The evenings and nights are always cool. Almost every night through the summer there was dew until the middle of October: then this dew *rented to freeze into wbite frost, which would remain on the trees and roofs of buildings until the sun became strong enough to warm the air. We are still having frost et night, but we have bad hut. very little snow -hardly enough to cover the ground -and it hies almost disap• peered during the Inst five or six weeks. This'bas been the most beautiful fall I ever saw and the roads are grand - frozen bard and looking as if they were paved. Christmas Was the only day that 1 haven't worked et one line dr the other of the building trade. I have just finished painting the outside of my third house and lots of the deys tbrough November and December we worked in shirt sleeves. Of course, there are drawbacks here. One of them is tbe annual wet .eason. it generally *tarts about the first of June and lasts for about five or six weeks. However, it didn't start laat summer until about the last of June and limited for six weeks. The roads ,that were not paved were very bad then ; the mud was from four to twelve inches deep, nut the busy traf- fic seemed to go on all the same. This wet spell, I .believe, is accountable for the rapid growth that we have here at this time of the year. We have day- light then front about 3 a. m. to 10 p. m., with plenty of sinlight. I never saw crisper and better garden stuff than is grown here; rhubarb. cabbage, lettuce, beets, carrots, turnips, psi - snips and celery elo tine. while toma- toes and cucum is don't do eo welL Some people have given this country up here the name of green feed country. It certainly can grow green feed and it payn well to grow it. They get tor a common -sized Idad of .heat oats $25.00, which pays the farmer Much better than the grain, for it is worth at present only 26c per Mohr!, while No. 1 wheat is from 86r to 70c. We bought twenty-flve bushels of oats for 25c per bushel and wheat at 70c and I never saw brighter and better grain. It was grown six miles from here. The oats yielded ninety bushels to the acre. Fresh eggs are 0Oc per dozen ; held ones 40c ; butter 40c per pound. Potatoes -are retailing for 75c per bushes ; we bought in the fall for 40c. Meats and canned goods are about the .ante ait down haat Boots, shoe. and readymade clothing are just as cheap and .Dine things are cheaper than in Goderich ; tut any thing that is manufactured here 1 numb higher in price, as labor is much bigt•er. However, i am rertainly convinced that the time is not far distant when the price of labor will find It. level be- tween the East and West.

Wben this time ...tomes Edmonton will get it. 'there of the (extolled ..nd I firmly believe that it will be one of the nest cities In Can- ada. It is well .ituated for a central distributing point. having good ship- ping facilities. plenty of cheap coat. and is uoe of the best stack -raising and grain and vegetable countries under ibe run. The only thing that 1 can see that hinders the factories from flocking 'here more quickly is the high wages that have been paid in all lines of manufacturing. We have at Pr`oeot several good factories and wholesale houses with prospects for several more. but still ',room for all that will come. We have city lots d eabdivisiono enough here to give .becity Toron- to a place to locate and then plenty still be left to sell to the Eastern people. Knowing ibis to he a fact my advice to anyone wanting to invest in Edmonton property is: Come here and see what you are buying or be sure that you are buying from a reliable t-ei...n who bee sten what he is want- ing you to buy. 1 firmly helieve that Edmonton has a great future before it and we might as well try to stop the growth of Tor- onto. Winnipeg or Vancouver or the flow of the Niagara Falls as to try to stop the rapid growth of. the city of Edmonton. Wiahi•tg you and Inquiring friends a happy at,d proeperxrsNew Year.

Still it was impossible to think of war between these two peoples, akin in race, and bolding the same ideals. There were several reasons, in the speaker's opinion, why war was not likely.

The Collegiate Institute lecture aeries war opened on Friday evening last with an Iddrew by Professor L. E. Horning, of Victoria College, Tor - mato. The subject, "Germany and Britain." was one with which the speaker was peculiarly qualified to deal. He has spent a good deal of time in Germany in pursuit of hie studies, and. although a staunch Can- adianaud a loyal British subject, he has some German blood in his veins, and, as he says himself, be is not ashamed of it. The address was listened to throughout with keen at- tention. The duties of the chair were dis- charged by His Honor Judge Holt, who introduced the speaker of the evening. Or. Horning said : There are com- monly said to be six great powers in Eatrope-Frauce, Ludy, Austria, Mo- she, Germany, Britain. These are not all on a par. Of the six but two are great enough to defend themselves or to attack with a reasonable show of winning out in a contest. Therefore all eyes throughout the world are turned to these two sister Teutonic na- tions, Germany„ and Britain, anxious to know what they are going to d and what will be the outcome of tb great preparations they are snaking. The speaker then sketched briefly the history of these two great powers sod indicated their relative • positious For many years Britain was at th head of a European coalition flghtin against France, and Germany, a Prot estant country, was an ally of Britain France was the historic rival of Brit win until in 1101. under Hing Edward the "entente cordiale" was establish There might be reason for Germany mistrust the "entente oordiale' an for Englishmen to wonder if a mi.tak might not have been made. Britain was much further +.he than the other nations in her eonaut Lionel development, and during great. part of the nineteenth ceotur she had no competitor all the leadin industrial nation and was thus able lay the foundation of her commerci supremacy. This accomplished, ther was a tendency to lie back on her oars thinking to enjoy in repose the frui of her supremacy. But Englan lacked a proper educational system f her people, and she eventually found rival in Germany. whoee people h many traits in common with the Bri ish, including that quality of n knowing when they were beaten, an who gave her artisans a scienti training which was of immense sal in tbeir industrial pursuits. Furth the British people were carel about the development, of trad for instance, they did not o0 stilt the peculiar wants of their d [trent customers and billed the good. in pound.. shillings and pen while the Germane studied the d mends of different markets and bill their goods in tbe currency of t country to which they were sol Britain, it was true, was waking t and in recent years had made gre advance in her educational faciliti Dr. Horning here gave a very int eating outline of the building up the German Empire under the Hohe zollerns, and told of t he two gr heroes of Germany- Frederick t Great and Frederick William t great Elector -and of Bismarck, w witty years ago began to plan for t union of Germany under the lead ship of Prussia, and 'of the success culmination of his policy in tte w with France, 1870.71, and the craw Ing of William I. es Emperor of ti many in 1871.

The atone blood flows in the veins of Ger- man and Briton. Further, the great influence of finance in the world's affairs tends to peace. (2) Common ideals in education, Hundreds of people of all oations were spreading the knowledge obtained in German schools, and the spirit of free- dom, equality and brotherhood was covering the whole earth. This would be a strong influence against any such insanity as a duel between these two nations. c3) All over the world you find the spirit abroad that began perceptibly at the time of the French Revolution : the belief they the future belongs to duan -not to the nobheenan, not to the middleman batt to the common man, woman and child. The common man is coming into his right,. No longer can the great men move their armies of unthinking men at their will. The common man knows that war is hell. And when the common wen begin to work their will, and on the day the nabobe begin a war the common people proclaim a general strike- where will the war be? "11 is because I believe the future belongs to the common man, and that the day is coming foretold by Tenny- son when he speaks of 'the parliament of the world,' that I believe there will be no war." W. Proudfoot, K. C.. M. P. P., moved Che vote of thanks to the speaker. Those who had heard him were indebted not only to the speaker himself but also to those who had arranged the course of addresses. The motion was seconded by Inspec- tor J. E. Tom and was adopted en- thusiastically. Judge Holt in tendering the vote of thanks expressed the hope that, no matter what might happen, Canada would be prepared to stand by Great Britain to help maintain her position as "mistress of the seas." Replying to the vote of thanks Dr. Horning, in reference to an allusion to the war in the Balkans, pointed out the great difference between that wet. in which the people of the Balkans were struggling against centuries o1 oppreesion, and a possible war he tween two such nations as Britain and Germany. possessing the same ideals and with no such reason for a conflict.
