The Dominion Government, hav

The Dominion Government, having
failed to obtain the imperial guarantee
for It's Canadian Pacitic Railway, is
striving hard to get up something
with which to divert the attention OF
of the public. and the tenant-tarmer
scheme is being pushed vigorously,
two more agents having been
appointed. one for Scotland and the
other for Ireland, to hold meetings
and demons rate to the tenant-f,rmer
how much better it is tor them to pay
Sc an acre for land in Manatoba than
to receive it free from other colinies.
The scheme is not tavorably regarded
here, it being thought that as the,
''pioneer turner's if they come at all
will have to pass over the St. Paul
and Manitoba and the Northern Pacific
railways before they reach Manitoba,
and as these roads offer great induce
mcnts to rich settlers, the governor
may really only lie paying the expense
Of men to come over here and select
locations in Dakot and Minnesota

Last Thursday evening VIM.
Nelson, living just south of tue town,
was told that dead man was lying
on the prairie near his house. On
searching he found the body about 40
rods S. w. of his residence. He no
titled the coroner, DIR. Vivian, who
impanneled a jury and went out that
evening and viewed the body, which
was lying face downward dead. It
WAS brought to town and tile exam
ina!ion resumed. next morning.
There were no marks of violence and
the jury could not tell when or from
what cause death ensued. The coron-'
ner then ordered q post norton ex-
animation, which was made Ivy DR..
D,nniston. The brain was found
slightly congested but otherwise
healthy and quite large. The heart
was very badly diseased, and the Dr..
WAS OF the opinion that death resulted
from paralysis OF the heart. In this
opinion Dr.. Vivian concurred and the
jury 50 found.
The body was that of Elwyn Lyon,
a young man from Portage Wis.,, who
came here nearly year ago and has
been in the employ ofditferent persons
ever since. He WAS temperate,
industrious, trustworthy and respect
cd. His earnings he sent home to MS
parents. His: brother had died Of
of heart disease. At the time Of his
death he WAS in the employ. of Mr..
Nelson, and when last seen alive he
was leaving Mr. Nelson's house in
the dusk of the evening to show a
stranger the road to, Alexandria
His body had lain two days before
it was discovered. The remains We're
taken to S,uk Centre and delivered
to his friends.- Alexandria Post.

the European crop condition as bad
rs it really is. We haven't anything
to spare in the way of food, but what
they need, and will take at good pri-
ces-not famine prices of course, for
that we do not wish to pay. but'good
remunerative prices for rything.
In my opinion the circumstances
were never before SO favorable for
this country. Business will fairly
rush, and we arc on the eve of great
er prosperity than we have seen since
the war at any rate, and, indeed, a
better prosperity, for this increase in
the business of the country will be
he.lthful. I also investigated the
question OF future immigration, and
] can assure you that the tide ofpee-
pie that will pour from the old coun-
tries to'this the next season has new
er been equaled, The class of immi-
grants that will come will prefer
western homes, for they will lie
mostly small farmers, and if we Of the
northwest stir ourselves, we can get
the great bulk OF that immigration.
l look upon the present condition of
business affairs and prospects that
are in the certain future, as by far
the most favorable this country has
ever seen. no not think our bust
ness men really, or at least fully, ap-
preciatc the extent of the needs and
depression in the old world"
Thus it is plain that the export of
grain from this country through the
white" and spring of 1880 will pave
the way for good markets next year,
and we hope that justice will be CIV
en- the Northern Pacific farmers next
| fall.
