Word has been received from settlements of
MINES otians and Dakotans who have located
in the Canadian Northwest, and they report the
Utmost satisfaction with their new homes.
They enjoy the advantages OF responsible gov
ernme nj, and with free. non-sectarian schools,
church privileges in all districts, they feel
happy and contented. The land which they
have selected is considered to be better than
that that they left in Minnesota and Dakota,
and the results are apparent in the large crops
which they have been able to grow ana sell at
prices often higher than that realized on this
side of the line. Many of them have selected
districts where diversified farming can be car
ried on with ease and profit. During the past
season, in one section of the Northwest, over
$40, 900 was paid out for cattle, while "a large
exporting firm has purchased in another dis
trict upwards Of 5000, 900 worth. 1t will thus
be seen that farming in the Canadian North
west is a pleasure, and can be done with profit,
while social and climatic conditions are all
that can be desired. In several districts

Leav2nworth. Kan, June PA dia-
bol,c;il attempt was made upon the
life OF Gov. Andrew j. Smith, of the
national soldiers home, and his wife
II daughter, by some bastard who is
yet unknown. Dynamite was en-
ployed ia the outrage, and the ex-
plosion, which all but demolished the
governors beautiful residence, aroused
the residents of the city. and houses
trembled as IL undergoing an earth
quake shock. Mrs. Smith had n mi
raculOus escape from death, the base
Of the explosion being directly under
her bed chamber. Beside being cut
and bruised by broken glasses and
furniture. she was completely pros
trated by the frightful shock, and il
now in a p%recarioC.s condition. Gov.
Smith and his daughter, Miss Daisy,
occupied rooms on the second floor,
and were far enough removed from
the explosion to escape the serious con
sequences suffered by Mrs. Smith.
Joseph w Oliver, n dishoEorably
discharged veteran, has been arrested
by the police. Evidence against him
is strong. He had just come to his
room after being out all night. His
clothes we're D~edraggled. and he said
he was sorry the explosion had not
killed the governor. aS he deserved
such n fate. Oliver bears a rough rep
