A committee of McEneryites
called upon Governor Nichols at
the residence of his son in Thibo-
deaux last week to interview the
Governor. The committee wanted
to know if the Governor would
give them fair play and not count
them out regardless of the vote of
the people and count in the Fos-
ter ticket. This committee report
that it is currently rumored that
there will not be fair play and the
McEneryites will be counted out.
and wanted the Governor to give
them the assurance that he will do
his duty and give them represen-
tation at the polls. and the pro-
mise that he would remove officers
who would fail to give them JUS
tice. Governor Nichols was very
much displeased with the ques-
tons of the committee, and his
answers were quite brief and to
the point. One of his answers
was Il propose to do as every
other Democrat governor has
done. propose to do as Cover
nor McEnery has done and as
every other Democratic governor
has done, and I do not know that
Governor McEnery has ever been
called upon in advance to know
what he was going to do" To
tell the committee that he will do
as Gov. McEnery has done is GER
tainly not very encouraging to
the committee and to the Meme
ry faction, as it is well known that
McEnery was of the system of
"suspending the law until the
danger is past" and We believe he
did suspend the law when he was
governor. Now if Nichols do as,
McEnery did, and suspend the
law until the danger is past-un-
til after the election-the Meme
ryites will Be in the soup. Their
talk about that they will not per-
NIT it, that they will fight and SO
on Is all bosh, as they know full
we'll that the other side can fight
just as we'll as they can, we do not
believe they are drawer and better
fighter than the other side. But
we understand their uneasiness,
when the answer given them by
the Governor is II will do as Nc
Emery did," that means suspend
the law and gone is McEnery.

RUSHING FOR THELAND.

One of the chief explanations of the
increasing popularity of the Northwest
of this continent for farming operations
is the diversity of country which ID
offers. Nature has so fashioned it that
every branch of farming in the temper
ate zone has been provided with q
locality. And the extent of country
adapted to agriculture is a revelation
TO those who not many years ago
thought that Minnesota was the boun-
dairy of agricultural land and that
wheat-growing was doubtful even in
Minnesota. Beyond Minnesota, across
the boundary, the Canadian territories
Of Manitoba, Assiniboia, Alberta and
Saskatchewan are claiming pre-emi.
nence in wheat, in cattle raising, and in
mixed farming. Manitoba this year has.
outstripped the rest of the world in the
quantity and quality of her harvest
