IN WESTERN CANADA.
Delicate In the Old Home; Better
Health In the New.
Churchbridge, Sask.,

Churchbridge, Sask,
December LIST, 1906.
To the Editor.
Dear Sir,
l came to this country from the
State of Wisconsin three years ago;
and must say that am greatly pleased
with the outlook in this western coun-
try. For my own part I am entirely
satisfied with the progress / have
made since coming here. have raised
excellent crops of grain of all varie-
ties. Last season my wheat averaged
23 bushels of wheat to the acre, oats
60 and barley 40.
We had splendid garden this year,
ripening successfully tomatoes. musk
melons, water melons, sweet corn and
kindred sorts.
The country is well adapted to
wheat growing and mixed farming, and
to my mind it is the best country un.
der the sun for man with family
and small means, as 1t is possible for
a man to commence farming opera.
tions with much less capital than is
required in the older settled countries.
The climate is all that could be de-
sired, being very healthy and invigor
ating.
e My wife came out about six months
ago, and although inclined to be deli.
cate in the old home, she has enjoyed
the best of health since coming here.
In short, am more. than satisfied
with the land of my adoption, and
am also satisfied with the laws of the
country.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) JOHN LANGDON.

THE GENERAL LAND OFFICE.
Important Reorganization, Changes,
Rulings and Instructions.

Commissioner Ballinger of the Cen
eral Land Office, has asked Secretary
Garfield to assign to duty in his Bureau
two of the business experts who are to
be engaged by the Secretary to suggest
improved plans for the betterment of
the service to assist in developing GER
tain reforms now in progress in his Blu
reau in order that particular attention
may be paid 10 the Divisions of Mails
and Files and Accounts. The Commits
siOner and the Secretary are working
in entire harmony to systematic the
work Of the General Land Office.
The Commissioner of the General
Land Office has issued instructions to
Registers and Receivers of local land
Offices in the matter of the selection of
lands by States and Territories under
grants for educational and other pur-
poses, under regulations approved by

modification Of previous instructions of
regulations approved by the Department
on Jan. 10, 1906.
Under the new regulations the States
will be permitted to make indemnity
school land selections in lieu of frac-
tional portions of legal subdivisions,
which heretofore has been prohibited,
and notice of all selections made by the
State is required to be published in n
newspaper OF general circulation in the
County where the lands selected are
situated. A few other minor modifica-
tons are made which are designed to
facilitate the selection of lands by the
State officers Printed instructions in
full will be mailed to the local officers
within a few days.
Commissioner Ballinger, Of the Gen

if Secretary Root steps out Assistant
Secretary Bacon will be named in his
place. He is the rich and aristocratic
New Yorker who was a claSSmate OF
President Roosevelt at Harvard and
who is now the Presidents crony. The
President invites Mr.. Bacon to accom-
pany him on many trips out of town,
to play tennis with him, and to ride
horseback with him out into the coun-
try. Mr.. Bacon, in fact, Is oftener with
the President at the White House offices
than is Mr.. Root, althO it was only a
few months ago that the President had
Mr.. Root with him nearly every after
noon, and it became the thing around
Washington to call Mr.. Root the As
sstant President. Whether this change
is because Of Mr.. Roots Discrimination
or because of his dissatisfaction with
the President or because of the Presi-
dents choice is not known. Such Sc
crets are carefully guarded within the
Cabinet and eventually leak out only by
chance. And when they do leak out it
is only to be met on every hand with
vigorous denials.
No new matters of policy are now
being taken up by any of the Depart
ments of the Government. The heads
and subheads of these Governmental
organizations are getting ready to adj
Just their business to the new appro-
priations, which become effective July 1
next There are several very important
questions about the insular possessions
which Secretary Taft has to take up
with the President, but they are rather
the continuation of old problems. As
soon as the Secretary finds time, after
returning from his political trip to Ohio,
he will consider with the President mat
tiers pertaining to Cuba. He adjusted
many questions of administration while
he was in the island, but there were
others which the President must de-
eide.
A conviction that this Government is
serious in its determination to estab-
lish a new regime and to set up an eff
cient rule by Cubans in the island has
grown out of Secretary Tafts trip. He
did much to dispel an impression that
had come to be very widespread, that
only a formal effort would be made to
set up a new Government and that when
that new Government had failed the
United States would step in and take
possession of this Pearl of the Antilles.
New officials.
Several new officials of importance in
the machinery of Government have
been taking Office here OF late. One of
them is Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Beekman Winthrop, until re-
Gently Governor of Porto Rico. He is
making a good impression, and will be
assigned important work in that big
Department. A new Commissioner Of
Internal Revenue will also be sworn in
soon. 1t will probably be Mr.. Pearl
Wight, a prominent business man of
New Orleans. That office is probably
second in Importance in the Treasury
Department only to the Secretary.
Several new men have also slept in
at the Post Office Department of late,
as have several new men in the Depart
ment of the Interior. One of the latest
Bureau officers under that Departmen
to hand in his resignation is the Com
missioner of Patents, Mr.. Frederick /.
Allen, of Auburn, n. Y. His resignation
is the termination of long fight by
dissatisfied patrons. His successor has
not been named.

have brought this suit, they claim, as
4 protection to her. There has been
much said about Mrs. Eddy's mental
condition, those surrounding her de-
claring that in spite Of her advanced
age her mind Is wonderfully clear and
strong, while others affirm that she Is
almost child a. far as her reasoning
powers ere concerned. and unable to
understand or protect her property.
The counsel for the plaintiffs IN this
suit have lately proposed. in order 10
expedite matters. that both sides should
select three men, ana that these six
men should be admitted to Mira Eddys
presence and allowed to talk with her.
that q correct idea OF her mental condi-
ton be obtained. The fact that Mrs.
Eddy has Just become the founder Of
the American branch Of tho Association
for International Cancellation, with
Nicholas Murray Butler as President,
Congressman Richard Bartholdt Vice
President, Andrew d. White and An
drew Carnegie q honorary Presidents
would seem to indicate these stories Of
her falling mental powers were not quite
true.

Cabinet Rum0rs.

The old reports about Secretary Root
being dissatisfied with the trend of
things and intending to resign have also
been revived. Notwithstanding denials,
many believe that Mr.. Root will resign
during the Summer, and that the Presi-
dent will have 10 re 1rganiZe his Cabinet
again, probably at the beginning of an
other Winter. II would be the third or
fourth reorganization since he became
President. No one knows where he
would turn to find a Secretary of State,
for material for that office is very rare
in this country. There are a few men
who might make good in that office,
but they would not accept nomina-
ton. There are two or three Repub-
lican Senators capable of the pc,tfolio,
but in these days it is almost impossible
to persuade a Senator to resign to take
Q Cabinet place. Senat ors, whose ten
ure is likely to be long, think they have
a better Office than the Presiden, could
give them in the Cabinet. Men OF any
important business or political duties
would hesitate more than ever, because
the service would be for only about one
year-the duration of President Roose-
Velt's present term.
1t is more than likely. however, that
