pie who honestly believes what he adj
vocates, TO drop free silver in the COM

with great magnanimity and conde-
scension that he has concluded to sup
port Bryan, but he asks Mr.. Bryan to
renounce the one thing for which he
most conspicuously stands and for
which he has so valiantly fought.
Listen to the demagogue in "Wol-
fert's Roost." He says:
Why keep ON shouting 16 to l when
the Senate is Republican for Elk years
at least, and the possibility of the re-
alization of that ratio is out of the
question?
If we made the right sort of use of
the Porto Rican tariff matter and the
other issues, instead of keeping up a
yelling over the silver question, it
would bring back thousands Of Demo.

Former U. S. Residents.
The following extracts from a letter
written to Mr.. BENZ. Davis, Canadian
Government Agent at St. Paul, Mimi,
give an excellent idea of what is said
of Western Canada by those who have
gone there during the past two or three
years.
"When we first arrived here and took
up our homes on the prairie near Dales-
boro, Assa., for q short time we had a
fit of the blues but now all hands
are settled to business, hale, hearty
and contented, enjoying the finest Win
ter we have eve seen. We have got
very comfortably situated, with con-
siderable preparation for a crop, and
all hopeful. I think this is a very fine
country, and if the past seasons crop
is not an exception, which they claim
not, I believe this is going to be the
Wheat Field of the West. 1t is fill
ing up fast. In this township last
spring there were rs quarter-sections of
land vacant and to-day there is not one;
I can stand at my house and count 10
houses where there was not one last
spring, with six more to go up this
spring. This is only a sample of what
is going on all round. We intend to
build a church next summer, right
close to my place, SO we will be strict
~ in line. 1t would have amused you
to have been here last spring. There
were crowds of land-seekers, and some-
times in the spring the prairie is not
very inviting, and of course lots were
disconnected. There was one in the
crowd who jumped on me for putting
a letter in the paper, only for which he
never would have come here, and he
was very hostile, but eventually he got
a place, and to-day claims he would not
take a Thousand Dollars and move out,
SO I am glad he is satisfied.
"Well my dear Sir, as Arthur Finney
is about to move cut in March, with
his family, and also one of my sons. any
thingyou can do for them to assist them
along and to make things smooth as
possible, will be greatly appreciated by
me. 1 will close for this time, and will
write from time to time to let you know
we are living. Drop us a few lines to
let. us know how things are moving in
st. Paul. Yours Respectfully,
