Lord Beaconstield, at an agricultural ban
quet In England, gave the British farmers
the consolation OF q fiction or canard which
excels his highest efforts In d line In which he
has achieved more success than In that OF the
Statesman OF the novelist and romancer.
The story he retailed to the British pumpkins
was that nearly all the chief land holders in
the Western States had sold out their lands
mud gone into the wilderness coded by the
Hudson Bay Company to the Dominion OF
Canada. This story puts to shame the
highest efforts Of Pinto and Munchansen.
