Written for The Expositor. le my .last %Res I stated that Regina is the present capital of the mew province of Saske:tehewere It thas.not eret been &finitely fixed up- on as the vermanent capItal. That neb.ttee will be definitely decided by the firat Leg,islature elected...by the people a the new proeitnoe. There are eiveral other 'espirtints for the positiop of capitaa, arid amsong these is the new, and booming town of .liaskatoon. However, I think there is little doubt but Reeina will be the favored hocetion. It has matey. ,advaetages in its favor. It has been the Capital and 'Seat of Gev- eTaiment for the ,Northwest Terei- Writ 5 ever slew ;their !organization Old' until the' fest .O September last, when the •new Peevinces had their birth. .A1111 the Government of- fices are here 'anti the public and legielative buildings, such as ithe.y are..

However, ander the circums-tances, wets glad to get even that, for a good many did oaot fare so weal, and I endured it. long eneugh tto " do " the bew:n and the siirr.oueding obuntry for a good -many mattes pretty thoroughly. I may- remark 'here that the hotel business in Manitoba and the Tex - ritories is a perrfect bonanza. 'It is more pr.ofitable and a .kreat dead Surer than a. Klondike gold mine. Go where you will and even in the small places the hotels are orowd- ed and acieonemodatioe is as a Tele, scerce, poor and dear. While in Most places the bar business seems Lo be enormous. There, they tellene ithe plainest drink at' the bay, is ten ;cents and if you glee them a quer- er they would feel ins.ulted it ,you asked for change. In, Onta.rio one ca.n get the best for five cents. A- bout the same proportion is main- tained ell threuele the, business. At a Sunday dinner at the Windsor in Regina, I saw more wine served at the taibles than ione woellet 13ee at the Reseiin er Queens in Toronto in a ratoiabh. At t'he latter places the servke .of wine at ,the tables is exo.eptienal ; in Regina it seemed be almost gener.a.l. Whether. or not this c.ala be taken as an indication of the conaparative wealth and pros- perity of the two' peoples I leave my readers to judge for themselves: Nature has net done very much for Regina. It is 'low, flat and unin- viting in appearance.. The leek .of trees and toliage on the- streets and etound the residencesegives the place a (naked ,aspect. But it is growing ,and .prosperous. From a town pf abut three t'hou5and in- habitaints it bas igrowe within the last* six years to be a clty of over: eight thousand and it is still grow- ing rapidly. New streets are _being opened in all directions, new bus- iness and private buildings ate 'being eon tr uo ted as Tepidly as men and neateleal can be procured for itheir erection.

The Methodists and Episce- palienf3 were puttingt arge ettitions to their 'cihneches while the Rem.an Catbollice were not only eniltarging ttheir church but were erecting a very 'handsome sohoel building. Thiele weee evidences of prosperity and growth on all sides.
