He thought that if he could annex a

DEPOPULATING A STATE.

The obese and vvacious Maj. Edwards, lately the
Nestor of North Dakota editors the consul gen
era of the United States Montreal has proceeded to
depopu1ae the of which he was for SO long resi-
dent. Hehas according to the public prints made the
announcement that some 10000 North Dakotalls will
the borders of Canada and become subjects Of the
king during the present year.
The majors exuberance always his strong point.
He undertook to boost anything from three queens
tckat that he did fairly bubble with enthu-
sasm for the project in hand. That he should his
associates the other side of the line to think
well of him is not to be wondered at In fact T h e
G 10 b intmaed the time of his appointment that
there would presently be something doing in the Cana
dian metropolis but it not to be expected that he
wO8lld proceed at to turn the entire popua-
ton of North Dakota to the Canadians
Forty thousand emigrants moving the forty
ninth parallel is rather large order for the major
to give and trust that international complications
will if express slight incredul;ty the
verify of the prophecy. Of the major has his
state we'll in hand He handed it the Popuiss
once and has more than occasion handed to a
candidate from the Red river valley in preference to
fighting person from the slope But really there
is doubt whether he could take 10000 tillers
OF the soil of North Dakota into Canada simply be-
cause he has crossed the line himself OF if he
did it his object would be patrotAc, for the major is
nothing if not that.
1t may be that his scheme is part of plan for the
peaceful invasion of Canada He proposes bring about
annexation by filling Canada up with North Dakotans
and then having them for Hansbrough for governor
general and let him break into the Union
But until the major explains he will sit in the
shadow of a suspicion that he has allowed his cnthusi-
for his associates to his natural con-
servatsm. He did intend to exaggerate but meant
q or 40 when he said 10000 North Dakota farmers
would move across the line If he should prove to be
right he would be prophet of wrath, for if that many
farmers out of the North state there would
be Republicans enough left the leaders
in demanding the consulate Montreal With its $4,000
salary as part of the plumber of politics.

To gladden. me with song;
