MANITOBA
GILES HAS A COMPLAINT

He Says Northwest Territory Land Own.
ers Are "knockIns" Manitoba. IS.
WINNIPEG, MAN.-Agents of American
land companies who control large blocks
Of land in the northwest territories, do
not hesitate to speak against Manitoba
to intending immigrants, according to
statements made by J. D. Giles, the pro-
vincial government immigration agent at
St. Paul, who arrived yesterday. '"They
exaggerate the severity Of our winters"
said he. land If this does not effect their
purposes, they say that all the good land
is already settled. Statements Of this
character from persons who have re-
sided here, but are now interested in the
territories, are hard to combat. One prom
inent agent speaking recently Of Winnipeg
to an interviewer, said the city was be-
ing doomed to it's ruin.
'"They are afraid of Manitoba" Mr.. Gil
les continued 1T is too fair sight, and
they try to get their intending settlers into
the territories without passing through
this province. Many whom these agents
have sent out, have, after visiting the
territories, returned to Manitoba and set
tied.
''The American farmers who have lived
in Manitoba even for a short time are-very
highly Impressed with it's institutions, es-
pecially in the administration of law The
system Of appointing, rather than elect
ing judges by means of the ballot they
say, is by far the best. A Judge who
finds one Of his supporters before him
charged with crime is inclined to be too
lenient, and entirely the reverse If he is
an opponent"
GILES estimates that from 200 to $50 in
tending farmers for Manitoba have reg
istered at his office daily He is flooded
with inquiries and says he will be disap-
pointed If the number is not increased to
300.

HOT SPRINGS, S. D.-Surveyor Gem
eral Frank A. Morris of Huron has sent
out circular letter outlining a method Of
procedure which will prove of great benefit
reserva ton. He says that the act of
March 3, 1899, provides that homesteaders
which the smallest is forty acres) may Sc
ment prior to Sept, 10. 1885, who cannot
embrace their improvements by entries
according to the usual subdivisions COT
which the smallest If forty acres), may Sc
cure r .'metes and bounds survey for
that purpose, under certain regulations.
II such a settler deems that he has
rights under the act that cannot be Sc
cured to him without "metes and
bounds" survey, there is no way under the
law for him to obtain consideration of
them other than through an application to
the office.
By the act of April 5. 1902, the time
within which homesteaders within the re-
serve may file their claims in the local
land Office is extended to April S, 1904.
There thus remain only about sixteen
months Much time is needed in the
usual routine Of survey and plating before
the tr1plicate pats, necessarily antecedent
to entry, can be filed in the local land Of
fee. Settlers desiring "metes and bounds"
fore present their applications at once, If
they have not already done so.

Z WEST SUPERIOR, W1s.-The steel
trust boats are beginning to tie up. Two
of them, the barge Manila and whaleback
No 11S, went into the shipyards slips to-
day. Most of the company's boats are on
the way here with coal, and after dischar-
ging their cargoes will tie up also. There
are but two more cargoes Of iron ore to be
shipped from the Eastern's ore docks on
Allouez bay. The company will start on
the construction Of its third dock as soon
as the last shipping is done.
The Highland Canal and Power company
of Duluth, which last month bought the
st. Louis water power and began with
plans for developing the old pet scheme of
Jay Cooke, now sees breakers ahead. The
attitude OF the council committee is very
unpromising. The committee will no
doubt report that there should be several
important changes, notably a reduced
maximum for light and power rates to be
furnished. It will take several months
to go through the whole program of adj
vertising and granting franchise here if
changes are necessitated, and If this city
gets concessions Duluth will demand
them That city gave a franchise like
the one now asked here some time ago,
but Superior's citizens seem to think Du-
luth was too easy. Without a franchise
in both cities it will be almost impossible
for the company to proceed. 49,.
