Expressing an Opinion.

Clyde Fitch was discussing a rather
tiresome drama
cit was such drama he said, that
a French playwright read the other day
before committee of the French So
ciety of Comedy.
eAs the author plodded through his
second act he heard an odd sound, and
looked up to see gentleman asleep and
breathing heavily.
He frowned-
Monsieur he cried, monsieur
wake up! Please remember, monsieur,
that 1 am reading this play to the COM
mittee in order to get their opinion.
How can gentleman who is asleep give
an opinion?
But the other answered, gravely:
Sleep is an opinion Boston

A LAND OF OPPORTUNITIES.
Inducements Held Out by Western
Canada Are Powerful.

A recent number of the Winnipes
(Manitoba) Free Press contains an
excellent article on the prospects in
Western Canada, a portion of which
we are pleased to reproduce.
The agents of the Canadian Gov
eminent, located at different centres
in the States, will be pleased to give
any further information as to rates
and how to reach these lands.
-Just now there is keener inter-
est than ever before on the part of
the outside world, in regard to the
claims of the Canadian West as a field

has there been such a rush of immi-
ton distributed broadcast is unprece
dentedly great.
I'm the majority of the States or
the Union and in Great Britain the
opportunities for home-making and
achieving Of even a modest compe-
tence are at the best limited. More
over, according to the social and IL
dustria1 conditions prevalent in those
communities, the future holds out no
promise of better things. 1t is not
strange, then, that energetic young
men should turn their eyes to Cam
ada's great wheat belt, where every
man can pursue fortune without the
hfndrance of any discouraging handi-
cap.
The inducements held out by West

manifest by the great movement now

certain is borne out by the history of
the country and its residents The
promise of gain is powerful, but when
added to it there is the prospect of a
corresponding social and civil eleva-
ton, it should prove irresistible to
young men of particularly desirable
class for any new country.
1.-The Canadian West is alive with
opportunities for the young man who
aims at becoming more than a mere
atom in the civil and national fabric
Some of the eager young fellows who
arrive on the prairies Saily are des-
tined to become more than merely
prosperous farmers. In the near fu-
ture great municipal and provincial
development will be in the hands of
the people. The stepping stone to
both financial prosperity and civil
prominence is, and will be, the farm.
For every professional opening there
are hundreds of agricultural openings.
The Canadian prairies are teeming
with opportunities for the honest and
Industrious of all classes, but they
are specially inviting to the ambitious
young man who seeks a field for the
energy and ability which he feels in
herent within him. The familiar cry
of Back to the soiIi'' is more than
a vain sounding phrase when applied
to Western Canada"

smile and be agreeable.
Among this class the symptoms of
female diseases are early manifest by
weak and aching backs, pain in the
lower limbs and lower part of the
stomach. In consequence, of frequent
wetting of the feet, periods become
painful and irregular, and frequently
there are faint and dizzy spells, with
loss of appetite, until life is burden.
All these symptoms point to a de-
rangement of the female organism
which can be easily and promptly
cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound.
Miss Abby F. Barrows, Jacksonville.
Athens Co., Ohio, tells what this great
medicine did for her. She writes:

Winnipeg, Man., Sept. 5.-The start
ling story is current in Winnipeg and
Selkirk that the Inflated steamer Prin-
ess, which broke up in the storm on
Lake Winnipeg on Sunday, Aug. 26,
previous: A passenger who was on the
steamship City of Selkirk says:
con Sunday, Aug. 10, the City of

harbor, was awakened by constant
hooting Of a whistle. The Se1kirk edged
carefully toward the shore and found
the Princess hard aground on reef.
and bow being clear of the rocks.
"With much difficulty we got a
cable warped to the distressed boat and
eventually pulled her from her danger
GUS position. It was most fortunate
that the Selkirk was coming along be-
hind her, for she might have hung there
for a week or more; in fact, she would
have been beaten to pieces by heavy
seas where she lay.
After she was pulled off it was
noticed that she was sagging in the
middle, where she had been lying on
the. rocks, and it was there and then
that she strained her back so badly that
she went to pieces in the storm.
s'There was much comment on the
Selkirk as to how she got into such a
position. Members of the Selkirk s
crew said the Princess was short of
hands, and that the crew, except the
engine-room staff, were asleep, including
the man at the wheel.''
The coroner will 20 to Selkirk with a
court reporter and two constables and
will conduct an inquest, and the above
evidence will be put forward.

Some time ago Judge Young, who has

made here. as most. everybody knows,
by conference between a few leaders.
The pledge was given that if Judge
Young Withdrew from the bench first
class man would be selected to succeed
him, one who would command the con-
fdence and the votes of the people of
the state and who would be in every
way qualified for the position.
The history Of the last convention is

Engerud declared that if Knauf were
elected he would withdraw from the
bench, that he did not consider him
qualified for the office and would not
sit with him.
Of course Knauf was very much en-,
and he has retaliated with charges
against Engerud. 1t is not believed that
there is much foundation for the &C
cusations made against Judge Engerud,
but he has no doubt laid himself liable
to criticism by his unbusiness-like meth

A Great Mixup.
It is said that Knauf had agreed at
one time to withdraw from the ticket
under great pressure from the bar Of
the state, but after Engerud s charges
he demanded a vindication at the polls
and refused to carry out hts agreement.
ct and the bar Of the state is in revolt
against his election.
Furthermore, the result would be Sc

his place.
