The investigation has already made II
plain that the old management utterly

water, putting them on bread and

na, Western Canada, before taking up
their home there visited the coun-
try as delegates. They reported to
the Government of the Dominion Of
Canada the result of their observations,
and from this report extracts have
been taken, which are published below:
I'VE have visited a number Of most
desirable locations, and are highly
pleased with the country as whole,
1t being beyond our highest expecta-
lions. We find here a prosperous and
well-contented lot of people, They
have comfortable homes, and their vast
fields Of wheat and other crops in addi-
ton to their herds Of choice cattle, in
dictate prosperity in the full sense Of
the word. In conversation with the
farmers throughout our trip we learned
that the majority Of them came here
with very limited means, and some
with no more than enough to
bring them here, and they are now
well-to-do. They all claim that this is
the only country for a poor man, or
one with little means, to get a start
and make home for himself and fam
lily. AS you are aware, we were
little shaky and undecided before leav-
Ing Detroit, but have determined since
that We, with our friends, will make
this country our future home. 1t Is
lar from being the wilderness we had
pictured 1t to be; 1t is, instead, land
having all the facilities required by
modern civilization, such as railroads,
markets, stores, churches, schools, ETC.,
In fact, an ideal home for those having
the future welfare Of themselves and
families at heart"
The Messrs. Strlovski selected the
Alameda district, but what they say
Of 1t applies in general way to most
other districts in that vast country.
They speak Of the fuel, which is to be
had In great quantities, Of the water
that can be had by digging from 10 to
20 feet, and Of the good grazing land
to be had almost everywhere. There Is
plenty Of wood for building timber and
for fuel, while coal Is convenient, and
sells at low prices at the mines. In
driving through the country they
passed may fine patches Of wild rasp-
berries, and say they can speak highly
of their flavor, as they could not resist
the temptation to stop and eat.
Having already transgressed on your
valuable space, l shall defer further
reference to Western Canada for an

recently issued by the Department Of
the Interior, Ottawa, Canada, giving a
complete description Of the country,

turns Alive.
GALENA, Kan, Feb. 7-Great ex-
element prevails over the appearance
in this city to-day of Tyler Gaviett,
who disappeared in March last from
the Windsor stock farm, owned by So
Ion L. Cheney, one of the most promi-
nent citizens of the country. Neigh
bors took charge of his crop and other
property, disposed of it and started
the report that Cheney had
murdered him. On the strength
of these rumors County Attorney
Charles Stevens, in the dead OF
night in the absence of Chen ey
searched the place for the body. This
act led to an assault upon Perry Stew
ems, brother of the county attorney,
by Cheney, for which a 100000 dam
age suit is now pending. Upon his
arrival here Gaviett employed Hon.
w. F. Sapp of this city and w. b.
Glasse and c. D. Ashley of Columbus
and secured warrants for the arrest
of County Attorney Stevens and five
others, charging them with stealing
his property. The appearance OF
Gaviett removes the cloud from Che
ney and leaves his accusers in a bad
predicament. The opinion now is that
the whole thing was scheme to
blackmail Mr.. Cheney Cherokee

BAD BILLS FROM CANADA
A Clue as to the Origin of the 500
Silver Certificates

NEW YORK, Feb. There is strong
reason to believe the counterfeit 500
silver certificates recently discovered
were made in Canada. Secret service
agents, aided by Canadian police, are
now searching through that region,
their efforts being principally directed
to the province of Quebec.
About so, 900, 900 of the SOC, 900, 900 OF
800 certificates originally outstand-
ing have been turned into the treas
ury for redemption and nineteen coun-
terfeits have been found.
