THE INVASION OF CANADA.

William R. Stewart in article "The American
Invasion of Canada in the Cosmopolitan calls attention
to condition which, he argues will eventually settle the
question OF the annexation of Canada. He points out
that the Canadian Northwest is very largely populated
by people from the adjacent states and nferS that they
will presently come to dominate the Dominion and so
bring about the union of the by process
of assimilation.
If Mr. Stewart quite in his statement of
tact his argument would most assuredly be sound But
there is for doubt about the statement that Amer
leans born dominate the Canadian Northwest 1t true
that many Americans have been induced cross the
tory-nnh parallel by the offered settlers pub
lie lands, by the Canadian government. 1t IS also
that most OF the emgrans had previously lived in the
Northwestern states, but is ndubitable fact that
majority of those who have taken land under the British
flag originally from Canada
North Dakota, for instance, was for years Cana
dian colony. Whole communities were peOpled with
farmers coming originally from Ontario Fifteen years
ago the towns of the Red river valley north of Fargo
were composed almost wholly of immigrants from On
tario The valley distinctly Canadian in speech and
customs. They were excellent pioneers and most of
them took very kindly to American conditions and Amer
lean politicsso kindly that they held all the Offices

fertility OF the American soil they sold their farms

DISCUSS ABSENCE OF
POLICE COMMISSIONERS
Board Not Represented at Last Two
Meetings of Conference Committee.

The board of police commissioners
nave not had an official representative
at the meeting of the conference COM
mlttee for two successive months, and
the question arose yesterday as to the
commissioners status in relation to
the charter provision, which provides
forced retirement to private life for
any official who fails to attend the
meetings.
In the absence of President Haas. of
the board, Vice President May has been
attending the meetings, but as he has
been out of the city when the commit
tee met the last two months Secretary
CopIey represented the board instead
he filed the required reports and as
TINS one requisite has been complied
with Mayor Smith and the other mem
bers of the committee We're agreed that
the provision had not been violated.
The charter makes absence from
TWO successive monthly meetings
equivalent to resignation, and though
there is a general effort on the part
OF those concerned not to violate the
provision. it is generally looked upon
as having no force.

THEIR FREEDOM
Board Of PardOns Listens to
Applications but Defers
Action.

The state board of pardons convened
yesterday afternoon for it's spring sit
ting with all of it's members Gov. Van
SAINT, Attorney General Douglas and
Chief Justice Start, in attendance
The entire afternoon was devoted
to the hearing of applications in sup
port of which attorneys or friends of
the applicants appeared and not one
of the cases presented was decisively
acted upon.
In the case of George Dorty. SEN
fenced from st. Louis county, Sept.
Is, 1900, to the state prison for the
term of seven years for attempted
rape, the members of the board prac-
tically agreed upon a Communication OF
sentence which would make parole pos
sible, but formal action on even that
question was deferred.
Among the applications heard and
taken under advisement were those of
Reuben c. Pickett. sentenced from
Hennepin county in December. 1901.
for twelve years under conviction of
manslaughter in the first degree, and
Thomas Reh, sentenced from Stearna
county, Dec. q, 1901, for five years.
on conviction of the crime of assault
in the second degree.
In the case of Louis Carriveau, sem
fenced in Lake county Dec. 10, 1902, to
be hanged for murder in the first de-
gree, the accused was represented by
John DOran and Alexander Marshall,
of Two Harbors, and NJ. O. Aubolle.
county attorney of Lake county ap-
peared in support of the findings of
the jury and the Judgment of the court.
The attorneys for the accused based
their plea for action on the part OF the
board of pardOnS upon the theory that
from the time of the quarrel which
occurred between Carriveau and the
bartender to the killing there was not
sufficient lapse of time to justify the
assumption that there had been pre-
meditation. On this ground they plead
ed for communication to Imprisonment
for life.
The county attorney cited the rec
ord of the case to prove that the
condemned man had. after his quar-
rel with the bartender, walked a dis
lance of 1920 feet. to where he Sc
cured his gun, and after loading the
weapon had walked back to the saloon
where the shooting was done
