A PUNCTuRE FOR CANADA
One Who Has Tasted Of lee and
Frost Every Month of the
Year.

There has been more or less talk
in this section of the state with
reference to the great prospects Of
the Alberta country in Canada. 1t
has had some effect, too, for families
in SanbOrn and Douglas counties
have gone up there and settled. The
following letter from a mar who has
moved there and knows the cOndi-
lions is one which the man with
the Canadian fever would do we'll
to reflect upon before jumping so far
north:
Harmanttin, Alberta, Canada
TO The Star: Please print the fol-
lowing for the benefit Of the citizens
at large and seekers Of the free
lands in Canada: 1 was enticed to
60 to Canada and spend my all by
the false literature and advertise
ments that are being thrown broad
cast in the states to entice people
to come to Canada. They will tell
you that this is the greatest wheat
growing country on the face of the
globe. Such a statement is false. l
know Of great districts in Alberta
that will not raise a bit Of wheat.
1t has been thoroughly tried and it
meets with a failure. Oats only
yielded twenty-five bushels to the
acre: light and not matured at that.
The straw doesn't even get ripe.
Grain will not mature here; too short
a season. Last year, after the oats
and barley were headed out there
came a big snow and laid the grain
fiat. so 1T could be cut only one way
and with difficulty at that. 1t has
been so wet for the last four years
that the farmers had to do all of
their hauling in winter. The
thermometer registers as low as 81
to SO below zero. The crust is frozen
SO hard over the snow that a man
can walk yer it and not break
through; and they call this a cattle
country! Potatoes won't mature.
l am stopping with a mar who plant
ed thirty bushels Of potatoes and got
in return one hundred bushels
poor quality at that. Other vege-
tables do equally we'll in proportion.
The duty on hardware is 80 1-3 cents
on the dollar. All other railroads are
barred from Canada by the Canadian
Pacific controlling the ballot box.
There are frosts and ice, so old
settlers tell me, every month in the
year; snow in the months OF April,
May, June and July and sometimes
in August. Corn, the king Of all
crops for fattening stock for the mar
ket, won't grow here. l am here and
have spent my all and would be too
glad of a chance to get back to the
finest country on the face of the
globe. 1 write this for the purpose
of warning others from coming and
getting caught in a snare as / was
caught. Better stay in the states and
pay rent than to come to the western
territories Of Canada. J. M. Scott.

According to the very able attor-
n eys for the merger crowd, the court
made thirty-four errors in its recent
decision against their clients, says
the ianapolis News. We doubt
whether even the Louisville ball
club could do worse than that. But
fortunately the question is for the
supreme court to decide, and it may
at least hold that some Of the errors
in no way affect the general result.
In the meantime the New York
Sun is inconsolable. Long after Wall
street has settled down to the con-
clusion that the decision is a pretty
good thing after all. and even after
he Times seems to have lost some
of its bitterness, ..the Sun walls
through almost four columns of the
deadly effect which the decision is
ertain to have, and actually urges
the repeal Of the antitrust law.
Repeal the law just after we have
found out that it means something?
Well, We guess no. The public man
who would venture even to suggest
the repeal of that law would find
himself in serious trouble.

1t has been truthfully said that
any disturbance of the even balance
of health causes serious trouble.
Nobody can be too careful to keep
this balance up. When people tegin
to lose appetite or to get tired
easily, the least i%mprudence brings
on sickness, weakness or debility.
The system needs a tonic, Graves it,
and should not be denied il; and the
best tonic OF which we have any
knowledge is Hoods Sarsaparilla.
What this medicine has done in
keeping healthy people healthy, in
keeping up the ever balance of
health, gives it the same distinction
as a preventive that it enjoys as a
cure. Its early use has illustrated
the wisdom of the old saying that
a stitch in time saves nine. Take
Hoods for appetite, strength, and
endurance.

Some criticisms are being made by
the eastern press Of the manner in
which st. Louis took care Of the
crowds which attended the dedica-
tion Of the exposition last week.
The crowd was immense and the
papers stated that it was impossible
for the city to take care OF the peo-
pie. Even the President was left to
hustle for himself in getting some
thing to eat. He finally found some
newspaper reporters enjoying a meal
and they extended the President an
invitation to come and eat with
them. If St. Louis is unable to
handle the small number Of people
who went to the dedication what on
earth will the town do when the ex-
position opens? She will have to
take a few lessons from Chicago on
that proposition.

Frank L. Mayes, who some years
ago was one of the publ shers of
the Gazette, is having a warm time
down at Pensacola, Fla, where he is
now editing the Daily Journal. In
the city a committee have COM
menced to enforce the observance Of
the Sunday laws, wherein NJ bust
ness Of any kind can be transacted
unless it is for the absolute benefit
of the public. The enforcement Of
she Sunday law has caused a great
deal of s.excitment in the Florida
town. Mr.. Mayes was notified by
the chief of police that his Sunday
morning paper could not be de-
liyered in the city Of Pensacola on
that day, and about everything else
was to be closed up last Sunday.

The newspapers in the towns which
have state institutions are calling
upon Rev. a. 9. Shepherd to produce
the testimony and name the profess
sor or professors Of the faculty where
the gambling is going on. The
towns do not take kindly to the gene
raj statement made by Mr.. Shepherd
aud they want him to be more speci-
fc in his charges. If such things
exist it is a matter to be reported to
the board of regents rather than first
exploding it to the public.

URSUS MAJOR.

The Lick observatory on Mount
Hamilton, through its famous astron-
omers, has given to science more data
than any other astronomical point of
vantage has in recent years. A new
discovery in the cerulean depths is now
spread on the records Of the world 5
ledger and has made for the observer
an immortal name. In December last
faint, purple, ineligible design was
clearly thrown upon Heavens screen.

staff and widely telegraphed, started
the inquiries:
HONOLULU. Dec. 17-Hawaii is
about to throw open it's public lands TO
settlers from the States. There are
some 100000 acres of government land
in the territory. though only half of it is
unoccupied and not all of the remainder
is available for agricultural purposes.
These public lands belong to the local
and not to the United States govern
ment.
Several attempts have been made to
place these great areas under the super
vision of the Washington authorities,
but the opposition on the part of the
islands has prevented this. it being
claimed that the national land laws
could not be put into force here without
causing great injury to present resi-
dents. The land laws of the territory
are even more liberal than those of the
United States, however, and under the
order just promulgated lands can be
taken up by any citizen of the coun-
try whether having a residence in Ha-
wall or not.
