DEALING WITH CRIMES II
CANADA.

From the chicago-Times Herald on Jan.
uary 18TH, 1901.
1.-THE citizens of the Dominion Of
Canada have just cause to be proud
Of their record as law-abiding people.
The annual report Of the criminal
statistics of the Dominion, which has
a population of over 100000, shows
that there yer only twenty-five in
dictments for murder in 1899, OF
which only two were left without
final action. Eleven Of those indicted
were hanged, nine acquitted and
three confined as insane.
"Canada is a country Of vast proper.
lions. It's people are shattered over
a wide stretch of territory, making
police surveillance particularly diff
cult and in many districts impossi-
BILE. Yet a city like New York or
Chicago alone furnishes a far greater
criminal list every year than the
whole vast stretch of territory from
Quebec to Vancouver.
"The Canadians ascribe their i'm
munity from crime to the prompt
ness with which punishment is
meted out to offenders. When a man
is caught red-handed in the act OF
robbing another he is not released on
straw bail by some justice of the
peace from the slums, to go out and
repeat the offense. Sharp and sure
justice is meted out to criminals of
all kinds, the result being that when
the guardians of the public peace
succeed in bringing a thug to the bar
they are seldom called upon to hunt
him q second time.
Furthermore there are few court
delays in Canada when a criminal is
brought to book. They have no
Dreyer cases ove there. There are
no methods whereby Canadian Grim
inals can have the proceedings stayed
from month to month and from year
to year or after being convicted, ap-
peal from n court to another until
witnesses die of old age or opportun-
tiles for corruption a be found.
"Nor does this swift method of
treating with wrong-doers in Canada
leave the innocent unable to proper
ly defend themselves. They. have all
the opportunities and privileges that
our w laws extend to them. The
extent to shield the guilty is lacking
that is ALL"
The above taken from the editorial
column of the Times-Herald gives
some idea of the immunity from
crime that exists in Canada, and this
is n of the many inducements held
out for Americans to settle in tho
district known as Western Canada.
The season of 1901 will see a few Sec
tions of the country opened up for
settlement. They are attractive in
every respect. 1t is understood that
one of the best Indian Reserves in
the famous Valley of the Saskat-
chewan will be opened up this year,
and an invitation is extended to those
desiring homes to make inquiries.
The price of the land is said to be
nominal. Besides these lands, the
several railway companies have lands
to sell; also the Government. For
particulars write to the Agent of the
Government, whose advertisement
appears elsewhere.

Killed During Raid by
~ Masked Farmers.

Leavenworth, Kan, Feb. 2o.-Mrs.
Rose hudson, wife of John Hudson,
a saloon keeper at Wildwood, IA miles
northfof here, was shot and instantly
killed at night during a raid upon her
husbands saloon. Hudson had been
warned to close his saloon, but re-
FUSED. About ten o'clock three men
entered the place and called for
drinks. When served they raped on
the counter and gave a signal. Hud-
son jumped from behind the bar and
grabbed one of the men. In the
scrimmage a shotgun, which a man
carried, was discharged, the con-
tents entering the wall. Mrs. Hud-
son, attracted by the noise, ran
screaming into the room, while a
mob of 40 men, most of whom wore
masks, entered in answer to the sig
a In the melee that followed Mrs.
Hudson was shot in the head by a
shotgun, the top of her head being
blown off. William Webb, one of the
raiders, was shot in the shoulder by
a revolver. Nearly 100 shots were
fired. Hudson carried his dying wife
into an adjoining room and the mob
retired without wrecking the joint.
-Four farmers were arrestedTuesday
forcomplicityin the raid and have been
lodged in the county jail here. To-
day the county attorney says he will
file a complaint against them of muir
der in the first degree. The raiders
are John Willburn, William Thorn
burg, Andy Wilson and Turner.
Willburn is but 20 years of age and
each of the others are 26. All but
Turner r married. Back of the al
legged raid there is said to have ex-
listed a feud of long standing.
Topeka, Kan, Feb. 19.-Mrs. Ma
ton is now in the county jail as a re-
suit of her trial on a peace warrant
before Judge Hazen Monday. The
warrant was sworn to by the Moeser
Cold Storage company, whose plant
Mrs. Nation entered Sunday morning.
Mrs. Nation acted as her own at
torney in the trial. Judge Hazen
placed her under $4,000 bond to keep
the peace, and ordered her to appear
before him at the next term of court.
Mrs. Nation refused to give the bond,
and said she would go to Jail. She
is now detained in the hospital room
of the county Jail, where she will
probably remain for some time.

Astronomers now agree that the
markings on the surface of Mars form
a complete network of narrow. straight
lines crossing the entire surface of thu
planet in all directions and are always
visible. The narrowest are 30 or 40
miles wide. Two hundred OF these So
called canals have been charted. 1t is
supposed from the unity in the design
OF the network that the inhabitants of
Mars are under one government and are
highly skilled in the engineering de-
manded by the fact that the planet is
entirely without a rainfall. Wonder
II they have electric cars up there?
