There is boom in emigration to
Canada among the British farm
hands, the great demand for labor
ers in the Dominion being the cause.
Some time ago the farmers of Mani-
toba, finding themselves short of
workmen, offered special induce

time the emigration has greatly in
creased. In fact, it is stated that
the movement to Canada has been
SO pronounced that the British agri-

of a higher standard than has been
known in the United States since the
civil war. Sons of some OF the best

WAS NOT JUSTIFIED.

The ridiculous attempt of the Daily
Bulletin to attribute the defeat OF Its
fayorite candidate at the school election
to fight on Principal Jackol, would be
no more worthy of attention than
numerous other reckless statements OF
our imaginative contemporary, were it
not for the reflection cast upon Prof.
Jackol, whom it "guillotines" in circus
poster type.
The body of the article in Monday
Bulletin itself contradicts the shrieking
headlines, in saying that Mr.. West and
Mr.. Crawford were both SUPPOSED to be
opposed to the professor; that Mr.. Rob-
erts was elected without opposition, and
remaining silent as to the views of Mr..
Middleton. Where was the fight on
Prof. Jackol?
1t is piece of rank injustice to very
worthy gentleman and scholar to hold
him up to the public as the cause OF
"the sharpest contest ever known" with
out solitary shred Of fact to base the
statement upon. The HERALD has no
knowledge of the intentions of the new
board in regard to teachers for the COM
ing term, but has entire confidence that
they will be actuated solely by desire
to give Aberdeen as good a school as
possible, and their selection appears to
give general satisfaction.
During his residence in this city Prof.
Jackol has gained the respect of the
community by his numerous excellent
qualities, and strict attention to his
duties, and, whether he remains at the
head of the school or not, will always
bear the good wishes of a large majority
the Aberdeen people with whom he has
become acquainted.
