In Canada

An interesting account of the
operations Of the homestead Ia W
in Canada affords opportunity fol
comparison with the system in this
country. It is officially announced
by the Dominion government that
a block Of 10000 acres of free
grant lands in the Rainy river dis
trict of Ontario has been sur
veyed and is open to settlement
under the homestead laws of Can
ada. Of these lands any male
head of a family or sole female
head having a child or children
under 10 years of age may locate
100 acres free, and may also pur-
chase an additional 80 acres at 81
per acre. The homesteader must
clear and cultivate at least Is
acres, and in no one year less than
2 acres, during three years; must
build a habitable house at least 16
by 90 feet i'll size, and must con-
tinually reside on the land for
three years after location. IF the
80 acres additional is purchased at
least Is acres of it must be put
under cultivation within three.
years. Patents may issue at the
end of three years from date of
purchase or sooner If settlement
duties have been performed. Min
erals and pine timber are reserved
to the government, but the home
steader may use such pine trees as
may be needed for building, fenc-
ing and fuel, and may sell such
pine trees as may be necessarily
removed in the process of clearing,
but must pay timber dues on all
timber sold. All timber remain
ing on the land when patents
issue passes to the patentee.
These lands are very fertile and
covered by a dense forest, gener-
ally of valuable timber. The On.
tario & Rainy River railroad, now
nearing, completion, runs through
this block of land and brings 1t
within easy reach of markets.
This railroad is link in the
Canadian Northern system, which
within the next six or eight
will have a continuous
line from Port Arthur, on lake
Superior, to Winnipeg, and thence
3OOmiles northwest.

Behold. the evil days draw nigh.
says Josh Wink. in the Baltimore
American.
When the man that hath been to
Hot-spot- by the-sea or to k-point-
on-themount appeareth in our midst.
Yea, verify, the man that hath been
away for the summer cometh back,
And great is his conversation.
He taketh you by the buttonhole of
your garment and standeth you over
against the wall,
And sayeth: Behold. / would fam
tell thee all about my trip"
He warmeth up 10 his work, and
goeth on to tell how that he hath
even as the sky.
He vOweth that he hath shot the be-
hemoth in his native lair.
And slew the leviathan with hook,
but that it got away just when it came
unto the top of the water;
He holdeth you against the wall
while he goeth into raptures because
that he hath bluffed hotel clerk;
He voweth that he hath made the
mash upon heiresses who have more
money than the Klondike turneth out
in busy year;
He sayeth that he feeleth like a new
H+NA-s AAAN o~'4AINAA SC0 W ACSA VI lis
muscles.
And 20 tap upon his chest
Yea, surely, all this and more doth
he do.
But look upon him and see that he
hath sunburn upon his face and Bills
tiers upon his neck.
And that the mosquitoes have eaten
copiously of him
And that the thorns and the briars
have rent his skin.
And ask of him if he be not glad to
get back.
Then will he say unto thee:
Surely 1 am glad with an exceed
ing great gladness, for, confdentially
old man, | have returned unto my
home with my finances busted with an
exceedingly great bust,
And it would make me merry of
heart and serene of soul if thou wilt
lend me 20 shekels until the ghost
waiketh yet once again.
Now, when he sayeth this unto thee,
rise in thy might and say unto him:
Cert. l will lie thee have the shek-
els provided thou tellest me no more
about thy trip"
Now, consider also the woman who
hath been away for a season.
How she cometh back and telleth
how that her blue chiffon was lost in
the baggage car.
And her pink silk was torn from
Dan to Beersheba by a brute who knew
not that his feet were made to walk
upon,
And that her purple tulle was stain
ed with the juice of the lemon so that
1t is worse than remnant at a rum
mage sale,
But that dear old papa will give I'M
der her check to get more glad gar
ments,
And that she hath become engaged
unto two earls and duke and a count
and a common person with much
money.
And who are these, that we talk of
this morning?

In the book that is called the city
directory?
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1901-08-14

Some of the New York papers are
saying that the recent exposures of
police completely in the violation of
the laws against gambling will have
the effect of defeating Tammany in
the approaching municipal election. No
doubt the opponents of Tammany are
glad to think that there Is some foun-
dalton for a statement of this sort, but
1t must not be forgotten that il has
not yet been clearly established that
the principal men in the police de-
partment have been engaged in pro-
tecting gamblers. 1t is true that there
are some things which seem to indi-
cate that the gamblers paid those who
control the police department for the
protection they received. There is,
however, another side of the story TO
be heard.
But whether the head of the police
department received money from the
gamblers or not, it is certain that
whenever a raid was to be made on
gambling house or pool room the gam
blers were notified of the fact through
the police department in time to effect
their escape. 1t seems that all Of the
gambling rooms and pool rooms were
connected by telephone with the head
quarters of the police department.
When one of the societies which are
trying TO rid the city of law break
ers decided to make a raid on a gam
bling place, or other place where the
law was being violated. the police were
notified to have a force of men ready
for that purpose. 1t appears that from
the police headquarters the manager OF
the place to be raided was at once no
titled. The result was that the raids
as a rule proved to be failures.
OF course those who are trying to
down Tammany will use every means
in their power to show that Tammany
rule is corrupt, and it is probable that
1T is, but 1t is a difficult matter to get
a thoroughly honest set of men in Of
fee in any city in the country. 1t is
regrettable that this is so. Those who
want honest municipal government, at
least those who are willing to work
for honest municipal government, are
greatly in the minority. Those who get
control of the municipalities do so, in
most instances, with the idea of max
ing all they can out OF the public.
It is impossible to predict how the
fight in the next municipal election in
New York Is going to turn out. The
taxpayers are grumbling. The increase
in the tax rate this year is very con-
IA 1. "a ,-I.v
900 year to run the municipality of
New York. II ought not to cost more
than 10000, 900, and would not in all
probability if the city's government
were in thoroughly honest hands.
There are more than 10000 office hold
ers on the city's pay roll, however,
and with that many persons drawing
big salaries it is easy to see what be-
comes of the $780, 900 income.
