handled by Prof Cook Of Cushnoc Grange
who had spent considerable time in the
West and consequently could speak from
personal experience and who demonstrated
the fact that ii money was all the Young
men cared for the West undoubtedly did
offer superior Inducements but if he cared
for comforts of life. cultured of intellect

Bro Cook in an interesting manner de-
picted some Of the inconvenience and pri-
vations TO which the Western farmer Is sub
jected, relating some incidents coming I'M
der his own observation among which was
that Of q farmer sending by his neighbor to
the store, 10 or Is miles away for pair Of
pants, and upon being asked by ueighbor
What kind of pair he should get, replied
that he wanted a pair suitable to wear to

The question Of compulsory suffrage is

Of the Belgian Parliament has voted in fla
vor Of compelling every citizen who has the
right of suffrage to exercise that right unless
he can give suitable excuses. The
movement found its origin in

doubtful. The Radicals and Socialist asked

able To exercise, also that it will prevent
the employers from refusing their laborers
