favors it. heard one remark that
the Monroe doctrine might yet prevail
and another refer to the fact that the
younger generation of Canadians were
disposed to be more hospitable towards
the subject of annexation. However
remote or improbable the union of
these two countries may seem, the
people Of Canada entertain d much
greater respect and kindlier feeling
for the American people and American
institutions than they did some years
ago.

growing very fast. 1t seems to have

BY telegram from Winnipeg to the
st Paul Globe May 18th, it is stated
that Premier Norquay has announced
the determination of his government.
to take up the Hudson's Bay route en-
terprise as provincial measure and
to appeal to the provincial electorate
for new lease of power OH that issue.
This departure is the more surprising
because that gentleman, about two
months ago, in a speech delivered at
Emerson declared that there was 10
immediate necessity for the construc.
ton of the Hudson's Bay road. To
the Globe correspondent he stated
that at the close of the session he
would proceed to England to make
arrangements for floating the bonds
of the province to the extent of 700,
900 to he used along with $5,0OO.OOO
more to be furnished by an English
syndicate already formed by Mr.. Suth.
erland. The Manitoba government
is to hold controlling interest in the
road.

Bathgate and Hamilton in EARLY Life

Bathgate and Hamilton in Early Life.
As expect in a few weeks to leave
Pembina county, where have spent the
last four years, possibly a few words
about the affairs of earlier days may not
be unwelcomed to the readers of the
PIONEER EXPRESS. am inclined to write
for several reasons. 1t will not be un-
pleasant for me to 80 over those times
again. 1t may be of interest to some
who have recently came, to have
glimpse at these towns in the central
part of the county as they were in
anti-railroad-days, the future historians
doubtless, will be thankful for items that
in this way may be preserved for them.
AS hope to give largely personal remin-
iscences, trust the writer will not be
judged egotistical, ifthe personal pronoun
will appear oftener than would he con-
sistent with modesty in some kinds of
compositions.
The time of my arrival OH the field was
July, 1882. To go back little from this
date; in October, 1851, the presbytery of
Red River met in Casselton. When the
time came for choosing the next place of
meeting, Rev. r. j. Cresswell arose and
invited the presbytery to hold its spring
meeting in Pemblna, adding these words
as an inducement to the presbytery TO
accept the invitation and come SO far
north: Brethren, you come 10 Penn
bina next spring we will take you over
to Europe" This was enough, the invita-
ton was accepted.
When the time for spring meeting ar
rived the, writer, with several others
from the west. took the n. P.R.R. at James
town and reached GIyndon late in the
evening. But it was the 23rd of April,
the time of the memorable flood in Penn
bina, and telegram was sent from
Glypdou TO the brethren cup north" to
inquire into the condition Of things, the
answer came: "Train runs within throe
miles ofSt. Vincent the rest of journey
must be made by boat" Most of us were
disappointed. We were anxious to see
Europe, but were not prepared to make
sea voyage just then. Few Of the
northern brethren, however, met in
Pembina, and adjourned to meet in
Hillsboro, May the 10th.
Soon after this meeting in Hillsboro,
one of the brethren wrote to the writer
(wlio was not present at the mceting):
Presbytery directed mo to offer you
more inviting field of labor, Bathgate and
Hamilton, new towns OH the st. P. NJ. &
