UNExPLoRED ONTARIO.
Vast Region Known as the Hinter-
land Is Avvaiting DeveIopnent.

Winnipeg Free Press.
OR ontario area, estimated at 200, 900
square miles, 100 600 square miles are in
an unknown region. only the edges of
which have been explored This is the
territory known as the Hinterland of
Ontario. 1t lies between Lakes Huron
and Superior to the south and the AL
bany river and st. James bay to the
north. In this vast area is the Height
OF Land, which separates waters flow
ing to Hudson bay from the streams
emptying into the St. Lawrence and
the lakes. North of the height is what
is called the Hudson bay slope, consist
ing of about $4,000 square miles. This
slope may be described as unknown
land.
The height of land is not a ridge of
hills, but is a level plateau some 200
or 300 feet above the sea. THE seem
cry, says a surveyors report, though
diversified by hundreds of rivers and
streams and thousands of lakes and in
Vulnerable crags and hills of rock, is
certainly lacking in that nobility and
largenesS Of view which only the pres
ence of lofty mountains can bestow." >"
OF the rivers flowing north from this
slope the Albany is the most important,
being about AS miles long, and navi-
gable during the season of high water
for 250 miles. OF the short slope south
of the Height of Land, in which are
situated the settlements of North Bay,
Sturgeon Falls and Sudbury, there is
definite and general knowledge, but the
whole territory sloping north remains
uneXplored.
The Hinderland is Ontario's reserve.
Much valuable timber in this region is
destroyed by fires that sweep south of
the watershed. Pine, spruce, tamarack,
poplar and cedar are varieties of wood
existing in abundance south of the Hud-
son bay slope. Here, too. are valuable
minerals, but the treasures hidden in
the region north of the plateau and the
resources of the plain itself await the
searching of some intrepid explorer.
This year further Investigations are
to be made in both Labrador and the
Hinterland. Meanwhile no adventu-
rous spirit need resign itself to obscure
inactivity, nor ambitious traveller sigh
because there are not new countries
to traverse. The Hinterland will re-
ward the eager discoverer, and when he
has exhausted that territory the regions
of the great Northwest remain unsur-
Yeyed.

DIRECT LEGISLATION,

To the Editor of the Globe.
In behalf of the Direct Legislation
league I wish to commend your article
Occupation at Home which ap-

wrong can long Withstand the force
or the press when directed against it.
and we are glad to see a great paper
like the G e take such an honest.
straightforward position and. lift it's
voice against injustice. 1t makes not
the slightest difference what the polit-
lcal views of our representatives and
ofhclals may be, if they neglect our in
terestS we suffer just the same, and
since our interests are one, we all suf-
fer alike.
Can any sensible man say that be-
cause man believes in gold stan
dard,, or free silver, or high tariff, or
low tariff, or any thing else, for that
reason he should be chosen to repre-
sent us! Let every man have his opin-
ION, but let the people have their inter-

deplore the senseless strife and antag-
on1sm which exist among us, which
are responsible for the disgrace
full spectacle of a congress, costing US
an immense sum, holding sessions of
only an hour per day and doing moth
ing, while the people are being sys-
tematically plundered.
Our representatives will never repre-
sent us until we wish and compel them
to, and this is the ultimate object Of
the league. Let us have the Democ-
racy of Jefferson and the Republican,
ism of Lincoln, which is for, by and of
the people, or direct legislation.

Sarah Bernhart's View of Duse.

LONDON World.
An amazingly Clever woman is Sarah Bern
hardt. Cornered by an indscreet Interviewer
with the question, What do you think of
Signora Duse?" she replied: THAT clever
Signora Duse! She is a great actress, and
will become one Of the greatest actresses on
the modern stage. She is a true artist in
sentiment, and has very largely the faculty
of representing the truth without exaggera-
ton. Oh, yes! Signora Duse will become
great-very great" Could anything be more
adroit? There is no disparagement. no criti-
cism, only bland assumption that Eleopora
Duse is a promising beginner-a mere nov
ice. whose achievements are all in the fu-
ture. II do not know Sarah went on, "why
Signora Duse has never acted in Paris It is
great baptism" What exquisitely feline
courtesy! To the interviewer it meant: "You
see, she dares not meet me on my native
heath" while in her soul. no doubt, Sarah
was saying: BAH No words of mine will
either bring her to Paris or keep her away.
Better play the beau role in seeming to invite
her." If the contest were one Of diplomacy
Duse would certainly stand poor chance.

tory for his arms.
This has been particularly true Of
the patriot commanders in Cuba. They
have never at any time possessed re-
sources sufficient to warrant them in
risking general engagement. Not
withstanding this inferiority, they have
been constantly on the offensive, have
overrun the island as completely as if
the Spanish garrison had deserted it,
have laid waste nearly the whole coun-
try. have defied or evaded the Span
ish army at their pleasure, and are even
now retreating in good order by a
series of mastery movements that
promise to bring them safe out Of the
great danger they ran Of being
hemmed in by the imperial forces.
This is real Seneralship. Very likely
the Cuban leaders may be men of lit
tie greater native ability that the Span
ish commanders; but they are inspired
by that sacred devotion to their cause
which, having staked all upon the is
sue, develops to the utmost every nat
ura1 resource Of the patriot and the
man. Inspiration lies not so much in
numbers as in self-sacrificing devo-
ton to a noble idea The struggle in
Cuba is only another familiar addition
to those pages of history which con-
tain the triumphs of heroism ever since
the time when men began the struggle
to be free.

Mysterious Tree PLANTED by indians

Indianapolis News.
When Fulton county was organized it was
inhabited by a large band Of Indians, under
Chief Aubbeenaubbee. and it was in Rich

deaths and burials near Rochester. Ind, only
one grave remains which is so fully identified
as to leave no shadow Of doubt.

southern part of the state. and he was fol-
lowed by his avengers until he was overtaken
on what is now the William Keel farm. near
Green Oak where he shot and buried.
His friends discovered his grave and brought
with them tree of species unknown here.
and planted 1t at the head Of the braves last
resting place. The tree has grown about
thirty feet high, and is encased in seven dis
tinct layers of bark. which readily reparate
from each other. blacksmith at Green
Oak dug the skeleton up few months ago.
but became afraid of it bringing bad luck,
and returned it to It's former resting place.
The grave has been visited by large numbers
os curiosity seekers, who carried away parts
of the tree until it robbed of the most Of
its branches

CHICAGO PLATFOBM A FRAUD
Members OF the Party AbsOlyed From Alleg-

CHICAGO PLATFORM A FRAUD

Chicago August 1.-THE executive
committee of the national Democratic
party was in session here today and
issued call for the national conven-
tion at indianapolis. The call says:
"The Democratic party is the only
existing political organization with a
history extending back to the birth Of
the republic. Party after party has
attempted its overthrow, some Of
which have achieved temporary
triumphs.
Without variableness or the shadow
OF turning it has held fast to the fun
damental principles of free government
formulated by its founders. and sub
sequently enforced by its great lead
ers from Jackson to Cleveland. Every
true Democrat has insisted upon a
strict observance of the mandates Of
the federal constitution, and of the
limitations therein prescribed as well
as upon the loyal support of all insti-
tutions thereby created, as guarantees
of the liberty it sought to perpetuate.
We profoundly disbelieve in the ability
of the government, through paternal
legislation or supervision. to increase
the happiness of nations, and we are
opposed to all attempts to conjure
comfort into the homes of its citizens,
or wealth into their pockets,
Jefferson believed that 1t was the
function of the government to provide
the people with an honest and stable
medium Of exchange, thus enabling
them to transact their business safely
and conveniently in every mart and
market of the world. He reprobated
every attempt to supply money by
means Of legislation and held that the
only value which 1t can possess is by
reason of those qualities that render It
acceptable to the world when unsup-
ported by any legislative fiat. He be-
lieved in the greatest measure Of free
dom of trade and industry compatible
with the necessity to obtain by consti-
tutional means an adequate revenue
for the support of the government.
Delegates to the convention held at
Chicago were authorized and had pow
er to proclaim platform embodying
views of the true solution of the partic-
ular problems of government now agi-
tating the nation. but upon condition
that such a platform should be con-
sistent with the cardinal principles held
