FoR several weeks the GAZETTE has
had very little to say concerning the
the candidacy of John w. Breidenthal
for governor for the reason that we
consider the contest practically settled
when he announced that IL nominated
he would accept it. Since then the
counties have been instructing for
him with about as much regularity and
frequency as the dates for holding the
convention would permit. Only one
county we believe 10 instructed for an
other man, Finney with two votes in

THERE are great many people in
this country at present inquiring about
the cost of getting to New Zealand and
indications point to q large emigra-
tion to that country from this country
soon. They are class Of people
who have heard of the liberal instu-
tions Of that country, socialistic in
novations, and being dIagusted and
discourage with growth Of capitalism,
and monopiy, and the degeneration Of
our institutions, they seek place to fly
where life will be more tolerable.
Singular 1t is that citizens of this
country which spent to much precious
blood to cast off the yoke of Great Brit
ian, should be migrating to one of her
colonies still dependent aud for more
liberty and better conditions.

IT MAY not seem very patriotic to say

dates for United States senator 10 sue
ceed Senator Baker.
They are all dead sure that both
houses Of the legislature will be repub'
lican. They all subscribe to tho tmper'
ial policy Of President Mckinley and
believe In q revenue import tax on the
products of Porto Rico, Knowing too
that the thirteen colonies went to war
with Great Britain In l776 for imposing
Just such a tax. Porto Rico stands
now in the same relation to us that we
did TO Great Britain when the Dsclar-
alton Of Independence was proclaimed.
The people Of Kansas know this to be
fact, The next legislature will send
a patriot to Washington for senator
and not a traitor to his country. The
investigation Of the Montana senator
iol scandal costs the Taxpayers $780,
600. The scandal and disgrace resting
on the Pennsylvania legislature ex-
posed since the appointment of Quay
to be United States senator by the
governor, Is convincing proof that 1t is
not safe to trust any Legislature where
corrupt men with big money are pres
ent willing to buy men to elect SEN
ator, Our experience In Kansas mrst
be lesson to the people that senators
should be elected by u direct vote of
the people. We have not forgotten the
Ponroy- York episode, nor the CalG-
well scandal. A congressman Is none
the less important to the interests of
the people than a senator, and all ex-
perience goes to prove that both should
be elected by direct vote of the
electors.

He had to rest satisfied with this, but I
was surprised that he made no inquiry as
to the condition of Angola, an ordinary civ
ility that might have been expected.
At the gates of the convent, within which
we were not allowed to enter, we were met
by the lady abbess and her train. / dis
mounted, intending to assist Angola out of
the litter, but as it was set down she sprang
out of it of her own accord, and the next
minute she was in the arms of the abbess,
and there was much kissing and many con-
gratulations, mingled with tears of joy.
I did not stay to receive the thanks saw
would shortly be showered on me, and,
thrusting handful of crowns into the hands
of the leader of the good fellows who bore
the litter, as some reward for himself and
his men, looped Castor's reins into my arm
and set forward to walk to the villa. The
chevalier came with me, and by the time I
reached it I was quite giddy, being weak
with the pain and the loss of blood. The
saturnine old able was there, with more
concern in his face than l had seen for q
long time, and seeing me stagger he put an
arm round me, and, aided by St. Ar,nande,
assisted me to couch. The chevalier him
self dressed my wound with gentle and
skillful hand, making as much of me as if I

ished dressing the wound the able remarked
that / would have to rest for few days to
enable it to heal, and had replied with
some difficulty, my jaw being bandaged up,
that this was impossible, when Clan came
in with note. 1t was from Angola, child
ing me gently for not waiting to receive her
thanks and those of the abbess, and beg
ging me to come the following day, with a
postscript to the effect that the lady abbess
would so far relax the rules of the order as
to admit me within the courtyard. l dis

WHAT A FORMER AMERICAN
SAYS
Doubled Their Cultivated LaAae ana
More Than Doubled Their
stock.

The following letter written by Mr..
John Cummings Of Wetaskiwin. Al
berta, Canada, formerly of Washing
ton, to friend in the United States is
only one of a hundred similar cases,
and what was done by Mr.. Cummings
can more easily be done to-day by any
good, sober and industrious farmer who
chooses to make his home in the Do
minion.
Dear Sir: A
You want to know how got along
since I came into Northern Alberta. I
am happy to inform you that I'am'not
ashamed to tell.
We located five miles northeast Of
Wetaskiwin; left Pennington, Wash-
ington, on the goth of May, driving all
the way.
We had time to build our log house
the first fall and to make us comfort
able for the family and stock. We then
built four stables 1sx2O inside, so that
we could put everything inside them
when the cold got down to the ffties,
and worked hard getting up the stable
and got through clubbing on the LIST
December, but to our surprise we had
no use for the stables only for the milk
cow and two span of horses. The bal
ance of the horses lived on the prai-
RE all winter and took care of them
selves. The doors of two stables were
left open for them to go into in a cold
time, but they would not do it, but
stayed out on the prairie the coolest
night we had, and looked as spry as
crickets.
I can go ten rods back of my house
and count ten residents. know all of
their circumstances. Every one of
them have doubled their cultivated land
| and doubled their animals, and a great
deal more. All of us are comparative
ly out of debt and an unusually big
crop to thresh and prospects of fair
price, and expect we are as well con-
tented lot of people as there are from
Florida to the Klondike.
My son bought two pounds Of Irvine
to the acre, and when we started to bind
some barley, we found that instead Of
taking two pounds to the acre, it was
taking nearly five pounds. Then you
ought to have seen him hitch up team
and make for town for 100 lbs. more.
I cannot say how it will thresh. All I
can say is that it is we'll headed, and
takes an enormous amount Of Irvine.

back to the light. He had taken up this po-
sition after whispering word or two to the
able, who left the room. I did not, how
ever, observe him or anything else; my mind
was full of mad thoughts, and for the mo-
ment let them have full play, making no
effort to resist. Folding the-letter up care
fully, I placed it under my pillow, and was
about to close my eyes when the able re-
turned, bearing bowl in his hands. This
St. Armande took from him, and, approach
ing me, said:
Come, cavaliere-you must drink this at
once"
His tone was sharp and incisive, and,
looking up in some surprise, / saw he was
pale to the lips, and wondered what bee had
stung him. rose to a sitting posture to
take the cup, but he would not have it so,
and, passing his arm round my neck, made

lows, my heart for a moment being gay at
the thought of the letter, said, jestingly:
"Chevalier, you would make a most ex-
cellent nurse. Shave off that little mus
tache of yours, put on a black hood and
gown, and diavolo! But you would break
as many hearts as you cured wounds" The
words were barely out of my mouth when
he brought his foot down with an angry
stamp on the carpet, and with face as
scarlet now as it had been pale before
turned on his heel and walked out of the
room.
1 looked to the able, who was sitting
watching me, stroking his chin with his
hand.
"St. John! But is he often taken this
way?"
The cleric rose, and, not answering my
question, spoke:
"You had better try and sleep now, cava-
liere, or else the potion may lose its effect. !"
He then followed St. Armande.
/ would have risen to apologize, but I felt
pleasant numbness stealing over me, and
in minute or so my thoughts began to grow
confused, and seemed to sink into sleep.

and thanked me with this and the look in
her eyes.
The litter was now ready, half dozen
men volunteered their services, and, placing
her therein, we started for the convent. Ere
we had gone half mile we heard shouts be-
hind us, and was more than glad to see
Jacopo and my men riding up.

came up.
"In the rear of the troop from Magione,

In truth, the left side of my face appeared
to be laid open, and, although felt that
the wound was not SO dangerous as it
seemed, yet had bled freely, and now that
the excitement was ov:r began to suffe-
much pain. Indeed, at times felt as if l

on arrival in the city was to be driven
to the grounds of the Exposition. The
remark quoted above was addressed to
Chairman John N. Scatcherd of the
executive committee of the Exposition,
who had told Senator Depew of the
progress made in the building of the
Exposition when they had met in Eu-
rope last summer. Mr.. Scatcherd had
dwelt long and eloquently upon the
success which had attended the organi-
cation and construction of the EXPOSE
ton, and "Our Chauncey's" expecta-
tons were high. Nevertheless antici-
pations are not equal to realization.
Looking upon the scene before him
from the sight of the grand Triumphal
Bridge. he saw to his right the stately
proportions of the United States Gov
eminent buildings, to the left, across
the spacious Esplanade, the charming
architectural effects of the Graphic
Arts, Horticultural and Mines build
ings, while the vast Machinery and
Transportation building, now almost
complete, was seen in the background
to the left. Opposite 1t, across the
Court of Fountains, was the Manufac-
lures and Liberal Arts building, and
the Electric Tower could be seen ris-
ing skyward in the distance at the far
end of the vast court, with the towers
and minarets of other buildings out
lined against the horizon. AS Mr.. De-
pew took in this impressive scene the
exclamation burst from his lips that
the half had not been told.
Later in the day the popular orator
addressed an audience which filed to
overlooking Buffalo's great Convention
hall. In the opening lines Of his speech
the speaker declared: "Six weeks ago
I was at the Universal Exposition at
Paris. Today l went through the
grounds where your Pan-American Ex-
position is to be held. i felt that Buff
falo is going to do at least twice as
we'll as Paris"
