various buildings throughout the town. The
most of the provincial business Is done
above the Sank OF Commerce, q little yell
low brick structure with retail stores on
the ground floor and government offices
above. '
The new province already has its diff
ferent bureaus, and it is rapidly acquiring
a goUd-sized civif service. L spent some
time in the Agricultural department and
learned that government farm is in ex-
istence near Indian Head, where all sorts
of experiments as to grains and vegetables
being made with view to developing
the province. The new state has its wsed
inspectors who go over the country and
warn people to cut down their weeds. II
they do not obey the government will de-
stroy them and the men refusing will be
prosecuted and fined Laws are already
being enacted as to clean seed, and the
state is protecting the farmers in every
possible way
l talked with one OF the members OF the
Agricultural department to the wheat
yield of Saskatchewan. He said: Many
of the figures published are extravagant,
We know through the threshers' returns
just what we get out of the soil, and while
We have many farms which yield twenty
bushels OF wheat and upward per acre
there are very few which yield more than
thirty. There may be a patch now and
then which will turn out forty bushels,
but when 1t comes to 100 acres or 1000 acres
giving any such yield you must take the
statement with considerable salt"

l find these new Canadian towns decid
eddy in favor of municipal ownership. Re-
gina owns its electric light plant and 1t has
a good system of street lighting Two years
ago the light was furnished by private
company. which gave a poor service at
high rates. The city has reduced the rates
and it is already making money. The reduc-
ton has been more than 20 per cent. The
waterworks are also owned by the munic-
ipality. which is now building dam across
Boggy creek to furnish water and power
The dam is seven miles away and ninety
feet above the level of the city streets The
pressure in the pipes will be such as to fur
nish protection against fire and 1t may be
that the water will also generate the cleo
tricity.
Regina has now just under 10000 people.
It will probably be continued as the capital
of the new territory and it may some day
grow to city of $1,000. 1t is dependent
largely on its agricultural surroundings and
It will never have the possibilities of places
like Edmonton or Calgary, which are
destined to be big cities.
AS 1t is now the people have discounted
the future. Property is everywhere high
and the surrounding country is raising a
big crop OF "for sale" signs. The real estate
agent is ubiquitous. I met one as stepped

Hand in hand with the Gaelic revival is
a revival of Irish Industries promoted by
the league. Sim feinn" (ourselves) signi-
fies IAN Irish Ireland for the Irish race"
lmbued with this spirit the league sets itself
to the task Of creating a demand for irish
manufactures among the Irish themselves.
BY this means II is gradually resusctating
industries of all kinds throughout the
island. The league has made It requisite
OF patriotism to purchase goods bearing an
Irish trademark, hence new life, activity
and enthusiasm, and in many places modern
methods and modern machinery, much OF 1t
American, are found everywhere. To pro-
duce Irish goods and put them on sale are
merely preliminary steps. To create a de-
mand for them is the task the league pro-
poses to accomplish. It's annual St. Pat
rick's day parade is an exposition of Irish
products, a moving picture Illustrative OF
Irish workmanship, genius and skill. Ger
tain trades are shown in active operation,
and every parader is dressed in Irish goods
from top to toe. Similarly every feis
festival. held during the year throughout
the country is first, last and all the time

Equities, history, art and literature are
regularly given and a national drama in
the native tongue, with a score of plays,
has been instituted. The league is also or

One of the coming cities upon the sas-
katchewan is to be built at Battleford, in
the western part of the territory not Ear
from the Alberta line. This town was
reached last year by the Canadian North
ern railroad, and more than a thousand
hon esteads have been taken up in the land
surrounding it. Battleford is right in the
heart of the wheat belt. and 1t claims TO
have lands tributary to it equal to the
state of New York.
The climate of Battleford is milder than
further east, as it is tempered by the Chi
thermometer seldom falls far as 40 de-
grees below zero, and It remains at that
point but few days at n time. There are
two other roads now building toward Bat
tleford, and II will soon be reached by the
Canadian Pacific and the Grand Trunk
Pacific.
Other thriving towns of Saskatchewan are
Rosthern, which marketed millions of BUSH
els OF wheat last year; Saska toon, which
already claims TO be a city, and whose peo-
pie think it should be the capital of the
province; Lloydminster, on It's extreme
western edge; Moose Jaw and Swift Cur
rent in the south, as well as Indian Head.
Weyburn, Milestone and other PLACES In
deed the province is already peppered with
inclpient settlements many OF which are

A Provincial CAPITAL.

I wish could show you this new capital
Of Saskatchewan. Regina is a ragged town
of ragged houses, situated on a ragged
plain, spotted with wheat fields which now
look decidedly ragged. The town has un-
calmly houses and wide streets with board
sidewalks, which run far Out into the
country. One of the streets is two miles
long, extending to the mounted police bar
racks and the government house. The en-
thusiastc Reginans speak of those places
as part of the city and the bare prairie
between town lots.
The chief business street runs parallel
with the railroad. 1t has only one side,
the stores facing the track. Above the
depot are numerous elevators, large wooden
buildings which tower over the city, visible
for miles. Regina calls itself wheat city,
and these elevators are its landmarks.
There are dozen of them in the town
proper, and in the wheat district adjoin-
ing 10, having a combined capacity of
5000. 900 bushels.

who has travelled all over IT, tells me that
the country is fiat. For miles north of the
American boundary it is a great plain with
no hills to be seen in any direction Farther
north the country is rolling, and sti farther
north are patches of forest, which mai y
end in a strip of dense woods running
across the province from one side 10 the
other.
The province is we'll watered, except at
the southwest. The Saskatchewan river,
which has many branches, runs through 1t
and the soil is such that water can be got
ten almost anywhere in 1t. In the far north
Saskatchewan is made up OF a series OF
lakes, surrounded by timber, and there are
lakes in the central and southern portions
The country has one strip of semi-arid
land. This is a bite, beginning with the
boundary of the United States and running
northward in an irregular curve, which in
cludes the most of southern Alberta. This
land is now used for ranching. There are
scores Of American cattle owners there and
cattle are often driven across the boundary
from Montana and other states Some are
brought from Texas to be fattened and
there is a large ranching industry in that
region, the greater part OF which belongs to

value OF preserving the language as 1T
erary possession. In his Introduction to
the second volume Of Irish Literature
DR.. Hyde traces the origin and develop
ment Of early Irish literature, its an
tiquty. its characteristics and its partial
destruction. There are two points about
the native literature OF Ireland" he says,
which entirely differentiate IT from the
rest OF the vernacuar literatures of Eu-
rope, Greek excepted. The first of these
Is the extraordinarily early period at which
1t took its rise and the enormous length of
time during which 1t fourshed. The other
is the absolute originality of this litera-
ture which was. self-evolved which was
utterly unaffected by classic models. and in
the syntax of which scarcely trace is to
be found of those Latinisms upon which
ere really founded and built up many
other modern languages" To understand
and appreciate its mild flavor and extrava-
giant mode of expression DR.. Hyde says
the reader must remember that II was the
product of a self-developed people different
in thought, feeling and civilization from
the rest of Europe, and was composed and
written long before the English language
was heard OF. Irish literature ante-dates
the literature of the Slavs, the Teutons or
the Iatin-speaking races. For ten centur-
les persistent though intermittent at
tempts were made to destroy IT, In the
eighth and ninth centuries Morse invad-
ers employed fire and water. Danes and
Normans destroyed much of the written
language. The English excluded It from
the schools and prohibited its use. Not
wthstanding the ravages of invaders there
are now extant books of Irish MSS
written before the coming of st. Patrick
one the Book of Dromeneachta," traced
back to the year 49, In public libraries in
Great Britain and on the continent there
are catalogued 1009 MSS ranging from
800 to 1000 years old. DIR. Hyde examined
the Irish MSS In the Royal Irish academy
and estimated their number at from 5000 to
10000. And this academy is but one of the
many libraries in Ireland in which Irish
MSS. is deposited. The total number has
not been ascertaned. 1t is known that
historic tales fill 5000 quarto pages and
imaginative tales 5000 pages.
