I'm THE GREAT NORTHWEST.
Letter From the Kansas and Nebraska
Delegates To Dauphin.
Prince Albert Sack
'lnce Albert, Sask.,

Prince Albert, SaSk.,
18th August, 1898.
William McCreary, Esq, Immigra-
tion Commissioner, Winnipeg. Man:
Sir-We, the undersigned delegates
from Kansas and Nebraska, u. S. a., in
reporting the results of our trip to
Dauphin, and subsequently to Regina,
Prince Albert and the middle Sas-
katchewan country, beg to say that our
tickets were limited to Fl days, and as
we had other large regions TO visit, we
could only spend a short time in the
Oauphin country. We examined, how
sver, the principal cultivated areas in
the southern parts OF township 20,
range l9, the great wheat fields or WIS
hart, Buchanan, Owen, Smith, hoss'
Sinclair, the Whitmores, Drinkwaters,
etc., and subsequently, others TO the
north, and never, in our experience,
have we seen finer grain. The whole
country is watered by numerous
streams flowing from the slopes OF
Riding Mountain, and excellent we'll
water is found everywhere at from 8 20
Is feet. Extensive forests of spruce
and tamarack cover the northern parts
OF the mountains, from which timber
Is manufactured in Dauphin and else
where, and sold at sl2 a thousand
at the mills. Wild hops and wild fruits
are abundant, and ripen in the open
air. Vegetation throughout is surpris-
ingly luxuriant, and without hesita-
ton we would rank the whole region
amongst the best grain growing areas
of the continent. The output of wheat
last year was about $4,000 bushels, but
this year it is estimated at over a mil
lion. Westward lie tie homestead
lands which now, and when fresh sur
veys are completed, will afford com
Portable homes to thousands of dill
gent families. The great Gilbert
Plains, also, we were unable to Wis.,,
where grain growing has been conduct
cd with the best results for years, and
Which will become a vast wheat field
as soon as a branch railway reaches
there. Settlement is speeding in all
these regions, reminding us indeed Of
the early days in our W states; and.
as we have examined, since our visit to
Dauphin, a portion OF the great coun-
try lying south and east OF Prince AL
bert, We can readily imagine the tide
Of immigration which will soon flow
into the Canadian west.

army, which has been under consider
alton for several days, and the fortif-
cations. The former carried about

mately 81, 100000. The final confer

ton bill was also adopted. The only
amendment OF Importance attached to
the army bill was one giving two
N extra pay TO enlisted men in
the regular army who served beyond
the limits of the United States during
the war with Spain. and one months
extra pay TO those who served in the
United States. The discussion of the
administrations policy relative to the

the attention of the members to the
exclusion Of almost everything else
during the consideration of appropria-
ton bills for the last two weeks was
continued, several speeches being made
on the subject. Mr.. Dockec' of Mis-

Washington, March IA frenzy OF
bill passing was on the senate yester-
day. The bills passed were principally
public building measures, and at times
during the day and night the scenes in
the senate were remarkable. Senators
usually calm and dignified sticklers for
order and decorum in the senate, clam
ored for passage OF bills providing for
the erection Of government buildings
in which they were interested. Late
in the afternoon a batch Of such
measures passed by the house was re-
ceiyed by the senate. Instantly con-
fusion reigned. Senators crowded
about the clerks desk and began to
sort over the bills from the house,
picking them ont as they found their
own. as If they were choosing valen-
tines from a bargain ounte In the
area In front OF the president Of the
senate Il half-dOZen senators We're
waving bills and ~endeayoring to obtain
recognition. The unusual procedure
called forth n protest from Senator
Platt Of Connecticut, who demanded
that senators take their seats and or
der be restored. At times throughout
the sessions of the day and night the
scenes were repeated as more building
bills were reported from the house.
Bills carrying an aggregate of eight or
ten millions OF dollars were passed and
many more that had not been passed
by both houses OF congress were
placed as amendments on the sundry
civil appropriation bill. Finally, at a
late hour the amendment 10 the sundry
civil bill was adopted providing for
nearly S4.OOO,0o0 for preliminary work
on buildings that had been authorized.
The sundry civil bill was passed after
II had been under consideration
,Irou0hout the day and night.

and he has since that time devoted his influence
and means almost entirely to the total preyen-

set of teeth. A few molars were all that
were left of his original teeth. and as
he had no confidence in store teeth, he had
for years been practically toothless. With

a peculiar sensation in his upper jaw in
front and last week two small teeth poked
their cutting edges through his hardened
gums. There are signs of others coming,
and Mr. Markwith is specializing on wheth-
er his mouth will fill up again. With the
coming of the new teeth the old man s
eyesight which has been falling for years.

that he is renewing his youth in every way.
