across the ocean. Ln9tanti does not
like. to lose her subjects. In most
emigration schemes British depen-
denotes are chosen rs the field for
phiiantnropic enterprise. One reason
is that there would not be Royal pa
tronage. Nor would the aristocrilcy
subscribe. And the upper middle
class would not in anyway help the
plan. There is no doubt but what
an attempt will be made 10 boom
Canada. Royal advocacy Will help
to swell the tide OF emigration to the
British possessions. Whether the
present disatfection i'll the region of
Manitoba and especially in Winnipeg
and vicinity will cause the cold
shoulder to be turned toward them,
(furLorne it would indeed be- remains
to be seen. Meantime should not the
tide of emigration bring some good
settlers in this direction? This State
should be brought more persistently
before the people, and especially the
agriculturists of England and Scot
land. The states OF Missouri, Kansas
and Texas seems to be much more
widely named and thought about
than Minnesota. We know that it is
very difficult to bring the matter be-
fore the old lands as it ought to be
but still more practical steps should
be taken to win some of those who are
thinking of emigration to try Mime
sofa. Yours,

The Minnesota Tribune thinks the
n. 7, Sun very short sighted. 1t
says: The New York Sun is incorri-
gible. notwithstanding the definite
announcement made by the Republic
can party, November 8, that it had
made up its mind to stay, the Sun still
insists that it must so, To prove that
the Republican party must go the Sun
takes the official figures of the Penn
sylvania election: it adds the Prohibi-
ton vote, 1902, and the Greenback
vote, 1852, to the Democratic vote,
302, OBJ, making total of 313 ,QSa votes.
This total it deducts from the Repub-
lican vote of al9, 1906, finds that the Re-
publican majority is only 6021, and
shouts, 1.-THE Republican party must
go.n The Sun statistical and must
go artist is clever, but he does not go
far enough. He should not have stop
ped when he found the Republican
party still had II majority, even though
it was hut a little over 6000 He
should have added to the total of the
Greenback Prohibition Democratic
vote the $1,000 or 1906 votes of peo-
pie who staid at home and did not
vote at all. Had he done this he
would have discovered o sweeping
Democratic majority, and would have
been able to change the burden of his
song to, "The Republican party has
gone" 1t is singular how short
sighted the Sun can be at times.
After failing as an actress Anna
Dickinson will return to her first love
-lecturing. Last Friday the Pioneer
Press commented as follows: Among
all the rep2ehensibse acts ever done by
Ben Butler none was more heartless
and worthy of general execration than
that of furnishing Anna Dickinson
with funds wherewithal to carry out
her mad scheme Of playing the mad
Prince of Denmark. The compiete
financial collapse Of the enterprise
renders it difficult fur her to repay the
loan in cash, hence she proposes to
stump the country with speeches on
the labor question, in which the gem
erols Ben shall lie presented to the
people As the apostle of anti-monopoly,
the genuine and only "poor mans
friend fur whose coming the world
has SO long and SO anxiously waited.
This is certainly heaping Goals of fire
on the shining pate of the just defeat
ed governor for his fiendish act of
cruelty. The gentle Anna must have
a deep sense of the obligation ola debt.
