Voting TO give some one a seaside

do something sensible for themselves.
Il was not the large vote that the
winner IN the Journal contest received
--one-third as many as the successful
candidate for governor-that was the
most significant feature OF the ballot.
II was the thousands OF votes cast
for all the candidates--the expression
OF good will on the part OF each one
votlng-the desire to give a little
pleasure to another-to do something
unselhsh--that was grand.
The seaside voting contest was ed

ORDER OF PAULIST FATHERS.
testant Episcopal Church for Es-
tnblishment Among Clergy.

To establish an order of Paulist IA
theirs among the clergy of the Prot
estant Episcopal church is the latest
proposition of some of the members
of that body. The suggestion en-
anates from the middle west. The
idea of the advocates of the scheme
is to have rectors of small parishes
engage in some other business which
would support them permanently, re-
CARELESS of the inability of the parish
20 pay them salaries.
The originator of the plan is Rev.
Conrad r. Birnbach, of Pittsfield, ILL.,,
formerly of Edmonton, N. J. He says:
"The population of this country re-
spects us where we are known. But
in most places we are still unknown,
or, what is worse, mistakenly known
as cranky set of people. Matters
have been made much worse in the
case of small parishes which tena-
ciously stuck to their privilege of call
ing their preachers from every
where, the further the better. On ac-
count of this evil the church is in
small places usually represented by
that floating class of clergymen who
are always looking for something
better and who are so helpless and
awkward in dealing with their fellow
men that they can inspire no respect
for their church"

Messrs. ]. +. Blum and j. Grumper.
of Manchester, Washtenaw Co., Michi-
gan, paid a visit to Alberta last sum-
mer and saw there Mr.. Shantz, one Of
the good old Pennsylvania stock, who
had come recently-some seven years
ago-from Ontario, with $24 in his
pocket. He has certainly prospered
as he now owns over 70 head of cattle,
has good log house framed over,
also good barn and in all respects
looks thrifty and well-to-do farmer.
He had some good crops of oats and
barley. After spending some days in
Calgary and Edmonton they returned
to Regina, Assiniboia, and looked
around the country North to Lums-
den and Balgonie where the crops APP
peared very promising and heavy, con-
tinuing up the Regina and Long Lake
Road they came to Saskatoon on the
crossing of the South Saskatchewan
River. OF this district they say
"The country here pleased us better
than any we have seen. We drove out
eighteen miles in northwesterly direc-
ton through the Smith settlement.
This is wonderful district, the growth
was splendid, all kinds of grains and
roots were perfection. The older set
tiers had good buildings of all kinds
and looked very prosperous, in fact
we came to the conclusion that we had
found what we were looking for,

TO SHOW COTTON AS KING.
Great Scenic Display of the Great In
dustry of the South mt the st.
Louis Exposition.

A great scenic display of the cotton
industries of the south is to be made
at the worlds fair in 1908 at st. Louis.
The stages of the fiber from cotton in
the boil to finished fabric will be dem
onstrated for the edification of a
very large percentage of persons in
the United States and elsewhere who
know nothing of such process. The
mill owners of Charleston, Atlanta,
Spartansburg and Charlotte. where
some of the largest mills in the south
are operated, have consented to fur
nish the display in question. This re-
suit has been accomplished by John
r. Kendrick, superintendent of the
textile section Of the manufacturers
department, who is in the south to ar
range for the feature which has just
been outlined. He sent word to the
exposition authorities the other day
that he had secured assurances that
such an exhibit would be made.

good country. While the nature Of the
soil changes and is in some parts light,
in others stony, and again heavy, gen.
orally speaking 1t leaves nothing to be
desired. Hay and water are also in
abundance and wood can be found
along the river slopes and islands.
We have decided to locate there and
shall certainly advise our friends to
do likewise. We also trust that this
report may have the effect of draw
ing the attention of land seekers to
this district, and can honestly advise
oil such to locate there. They will find
a good thing. AS farmers ourselves,
from good district in Michigan, we
have come to the conclusion that prop
erly farmed Western Canada will grow
almost anything" Ask for informa-
ton from any agent Of the Canadian

OFFERED OIL FOR TESTS.
Navy Department to Experiment
with Petroleum as Fuel ON
the Big Battleships.

There will be no difficulty for the
navy department in making expert
ments with liquid fuel. A number of
offers have been received by the bu-
reau of steam engineering to furnish
from the Texas oil wells all the pc
troleum necessary in conducting the
proposed tests, and several steamship
lines which are about to adopt ap-
plances for burning liquid fuel have
invited the bureau to make observa-
tions on board those vessels to the
end that the practical workings of
the system may be investigated.
Rear Admiral Melville will avail
himself of these privileges. He plans
to have the first test with liquid fuel
carried on with land boiler in Wash
ington at the same establishment
where the bureau has been conduct
ing extensive tests with coal. This
will enable comparison under sim
liar conditions between coal and oil
as fuel. These tests will be followed
by experiments with liquid fuel on
shipboard, where, of course, the con-
ditions are much more severe. In
these tests Rear Admiral Melville
hopes to make use of gunboat, a
torpedo boat and a torpedo boat de-
stroyer, which will enable observa-
tions to be made under varying con-
ditions, and If the results are suffi-
GENTLY promising large vessel will
be used in the subsequent investiga-
tions, At first, however, it is deemed
hardly prudent to make use of yes
sci of greater displacement than one
of the small gunboats.

A CENSUS REPORT.
Statistics Of Illiteracy Among Men
Of Voting Age in 1900.
IT Was ONLY SIX PER CENT. In CITIES
More Percentage Of Illiterates Found In
Some Of the Cities on Account OF the
Presence Of Foreign Immi.
grants and Negroes.

Washington, Aug. 26.-The census
Office has issued preliminary report
Of illiteracy amsng men Of voting
age in city and county districts in
the census year 1900. The report in
cludes under the term 'illiterate"
those who can neither read nor
write, and also small number who
can read, but cannot write. In the
United States as q whole, excluding
Alaska and Hawaii, the male popula-
ton at least 81 years of age and liv-
ing in cities having at least $4,000 in
habitants was 5,Ss5,644, of whom
339,223, or six per cent, were re-
ported as illiterate. In the rest Of
the country the number Of men Of
voting age was 15,24s,e55, Of whom
1,s49,247, or 10 per cent, were re-
ported as illiterate.
These figures indicate that Tilt
erscy among adult males is less than
half as prevalent in the large cities
Is it is in the rest of the United
States. The difference, the report
says, is due largely to the fact that
the urban population Of the country
is massed in the northern and west
ern states, and illiteracy is less fire.
quent there than in other parts of
the country.
Illiteracy among adults, the report
says, is found in the large cities less
frequently than elsewhere in all the
states and territories, except New
Hampshire, New York. Kansas and
Oregon.
The report continues: "As the
difference between the large cities
and the rest Of the country in the
northern states Is affected BY the
presence in the cities Of large num-
beers Of illiterste immigrants, 50 in
the southern states the same differ.
encs may be affected by the pres.
ence Of the negro population
The report concludes ss follows:
Among the native whites the differ
ences between the population Of
..-.ree cities in the north and In the
