FREDERIC REVIEWS THE WORLDS EVENTS.

DAYS will the exact status of affairs be
| known. -:
The settlers of this region are almost ex-
clusively Irish, who came over forty years
ago. They have from the outset acted in
the most lawIess manner, and III: all cases
seemed to show total disregard Tor
Dominion laws, ruling the region practlc-
ally as they liked. Most of them are Irish
men who. had been evieted from their
farms in Ireland and induced to come to
Canada by the most glowing promises and
the assurance that they could have large
| tract of land free of taxes and any other
expenses.
Tie Dominion Government tried to col
lect the taxes, but met with resistance.
| All attempts to coerce the settlers failed.
Matters have been going on in this manner
| for some years past, and this year the
| Canadian authorities decided that they
| would once and for all put stop to this
| lawlessness.
| Last week strong force of Canadian
| mounted police were sent up into the dis
affected region to press the Government
claims and to seize the property of de-
linquents. They were not able, however,

woodsmen and settlers gathered in large
numbers and disputed their progress. The
leader of the expedition decided to press
forward, but, after seeing the show of re-
sistance and probable fatal result in the
expedition, he very wisely turned back.
He ereturned to Ottawa and laid the case
before the authorities.
An order was issued for endorsements
and before night the call had been an
swered. The enlarged force will march to-
morrow into the disaffected region. The
settlers, in the meantime, have not been
idle, and have made every preparation for
resistance. They have assumed most
threatening attitude, and their leaders
have declared that they will not allow the
Government officers to enter the country
to collect taxes or execute warrants.
Among the officials in Ottawa the question
is considered a most serious one, and judg-
ing by the present state of affairs there is
sure to be bloodshed before the matter is
ended, II:

WASHINGTON. D. c.. Nov. :16.-The
General Assembly Knights Of Labor spent
the whole day considering the appeal of
District Assembly 1913, New York City,
which was suspended by the general
executive committee some time ago for
making public certain private matters Of
the organization. The session was con-
tinuous from 10 to 8 o'clock, when the
action of the general executive committees
was decisively sustained. So far the
General Assembly has overruled the gen.
eral officers in no instance and it is
thought the remaining appeals will be
speedily settled.
On Monday resolution will be pre-
sented to bring about closer relations
between the Knights ana the National
farmers Alliance. 1t provides. for the
election Of two fraternal delegates from the
General Assembly to attend the supreme
council of the alliance next February. 1t
is expected that the session will continue
all of next week. The delegates were given
reception by local labor Organizations to-

A man walked into a downtown res

walters are employed. 1t was after the
rush hours, and five walters stood in a
corner OF the dining room engaged in an
animated discussion Of crap game.
The customer tried several times to
attract the attention of the walters. He
first coughed, then raped the table and
whistled. Finally. becoming desperate,
ne snapped his fingers loudly and cried:
Come seven!-
In an instant the five walters were by
his side, ready to execute his order.

A FALSE REPORT

The rumor that certain minister in
this city has engaged space on all the
bill boards in the city for the purpose
of advertising his Sunday sermons
lacks confederation. 1t probably arose
from the fact that the subjects Of the
minister's sermons were so suggestive as
to provoke protest from the not over
scrupulous afternoon press. The editors
OF the afternoon papers were reasoned
with and it is now understood that the
minister can advertise hell freely with
out resorting to the bill boards.

A Refutation

Editor Heald 1T is an objectionable
affront which has been offered by the
Rev. J. A. B. Wilson of the Eighth street
Methodist church of New York to Spain
and to Spaniards; and we cannot believe
that those who support him approve the
injurious attacks which this evil-disposed
man has made on the Spanish governm en- t
from his pulpit, with the objectionable
purpose Of encouraging the insurge n t
Cubans, inventing for his purpose false
and repugnant statements such as could
come only from the lips of filibuster,
and not from the lips OF worthy minis
ter of the Gospel.
Here are some of his words: "Let the
government OF the United States recog-
nize these Cubans as belligerents and re-
ceive their representatives at Washing ton
as soon as they have government to
represent" etc.
The Rev. ]. A. b. Wilson should take
a machete and march to the rescue of
his friends from the tyranny of Spain.
All sensible men, whether Americans
or not. will have seen by this time that
the Spanish authorities, including Cap
tain-Gerneral Campns, have already
shown too much consideration for the
insurgents who have ruthlessly spilled
SO much blood in this lawless uprising.
