THE GRAND TRUNK PACIFIC RAIL
ROAD AND WESTERN CANADA.
viii Open Up immense Area Of Free
Homestead Lands.

The railway facilities of Western
Canada have been taxed to the ut
termost in recent years to transfer
the surplus grain crop to the eastern
markets and the seaboard. The large.
influx OF settlers and the additional
area put under crop have added large
~ to the grain product, and notwith-
standing the Increased railway facil-
tiles that have been placed at the dis
posal of the public, the question of
transportation has proved to be Sc
rious one.
It will, therefore, be good news to
everyone interested in Western Can
ada to know that an authoritative
statement has been given out by G.
M. Hays, president of the Grand
Trunk Pacific Railway, that that rail-
way will do its share towards moving
the crop of 1907 from Alberta, Sas-
katchewan and Manitoba to tide water,
and thus assist in removing serious
obstacle which has faced the settlers
during recent years, Mr.. Hays, who
has just completed trip from Port
age la Prairie to Edmonton in prai-
rie schooner, a distance of 735 miles,
which was covered in eighteen days,
Is enthusiastic about the country.
This will be gratifying to settlers in
the Canadian West, even il Mr.. Hays
declines to be bound to time limit
with the exactitude of stop-watch.
The Grand Trunk Pacific road will be
in position to take part in the trans
portation Of the crop of 1907, and that
| will be satisfactory to the settlers in
that country when the harvest is gar
| nered.
The wheat crop Of 1906 in Western
Canada was about 90,0O0.Q00 bushels,
and, with the Increased acreage which
Is confidently expected to be put un.
| der crop next year 1t is safely calcu-
lated that fully 25,000,0 900 bushels will
be harvested in 1907 The necessity
for increased transportation facilities
| are, therefore, apparent, and the state.
ment made by Mr.. Hays will bring en-
couragement to the farmers of the
Canadian West, new and old. The
| opening up of additional thousands Of
free homesteads is thus assured by
| the agent of the Canadian Govern
ment, whose address appears else
| where.

SERVED UNDER HERO
DEATH OF ENcLIsfjMAN WHO.
FOUGHT WITH cARlHALDI.


Gen. John Dunno died Recently al
the Victoria Memorial Hospital, Nice.
at the age of nearly so. He began his
career In the English army, and in.
the Crimean war distinguished him
self as an officer OF Bashi Bazouks. i
He left the English service with the
rank of captain, and in 1860 began his
romantic career under Garibaldi.
~ AT the request of La Farina (who
was acting under Cavour's orders) he
took with him to Sicily Sicilian
patriot named Giacinto Scelzi, who
went disguised as his servant. Scelzi
was compromised in the patriotic
movement in Sicily in 1S4S, and prob
ably would have been shot II taken.
The two landed at Messina, and then
took small boat to village on the
coast, where they were we'll received
and soon gathered volunteers, of
whom Duane became leader.
Marching and fighting their way
across the mountains, the little band
reached Palermo in time to take part
In the last day of the struggle before
the capitulation Of the Bourbon COM
mander.in-chief. Dunno took Scelzi
to Garibaldi, to whom he also deliv-
cred a secret message written on {. q
small piece of paper which he had
been ordered to destroy IL captured.
At Palermo Dunno raised and dis,
ciplined what henceforth went by the
name of the Reggfmento Dunno or
Regglmento Inglese, but the men were
almost all Sicilians. chiefly Palermo
tans. They fought splendidly on the
critical occasion of the battle of Mil.
azzo, where their. timely arrival saved
the fortunes OF the day.
Later, on the mainland, they were
Incorporated in the brigade which
Dunno commanded at the battle OF
volturno, where he was SO severely
wounded that his life was thought to
be in danger. He was celebrated for
acts of great daring, and at the same
time he always preserved the quiet,
gentle manners OF high bred English
gentleman. Garibaldi trusted him en-.
tirely, and no officer who served under
the Italian hero had more loyal de.
yotion to his chief.
He often said that Garibaldi's mill
tary ability had never been done JUS
tice to. He rated him as immeas-.
urably superior to the generals under
him, but he thought we'll OF Cosenz.
who was afterward minister OF war.
Gen. Dunne's great desire was to be
received into the regular Italian
army; but though the commission ap-
pointed to inquire into the claims Of
Garibaldian officers reported highly in
his favor, his wish was never graft
fed, because. though he had shed his
blood for Italy and materially helped
to free her, he was an Englishman.
He received all the Italian decora.
tions. including the Savoy Order for
military yalor.

itching that, until / became accus-

pany them. After ] suffered about

effect a cure. The eruptions by this
time had appeared on every part of
my body except my face and hands.
The best doctors in my native coun-

THE PRIMARY LAW.

The state of Iowa now has primary
law. Both houses of the legislature
have given a large majority for the sub
committee bill as amended. The bills
will become effective on July a next.
The primary will have its first test
next spring. in 1908, in the municipal
elections of cities of the first class.
The first general primary will be held
on the first Tuesday after the first
Monday in June of next year At this
primary the voters will vote direct on
all candidates for county. legislative,
congressional and state officers. judges
alone being excepted. There also will
be an expression of preference for
United States Senator. amounting to
party instructions to members of the
legislature. The primary will not
apply to delegates to the national
convention. These delegates will be
selected under the old caucus and
county convention plan.

GREAT NORTHERN IMPERIAL.

Orders were received at the local
Northwestern head Offices at Clinton
Saturday morning for $2,0OO.0O0 in
improvements at Clinton. to consist
of double track steel bridge across
the Mississippi, new brick passenger
station and new brick freight house.
All are modern and large The inn
provements will be started at once
and will probably require at least
three years time on construction.
The improvement is the greatest in
Iowa since the double track of the
system and the erection of the
So. 600. 600 steel Boone viaduct over
Des Moines river. There has been a
big hue and cry going out that the
roads are about to stop all improve
ments because of anti-railway legis-
lature. This is evidently not the
policy of the Northwestern. That
road always leads in improvement time
and looking after prospective business.

A QUESTION OF FACT.

With customary effrontery the Bull
letin makes boast that it prints
More News and Reading than any
Two County Papers"
Leaving out the question Of the
Bulletins "bad grammar, we are
surprised at the Bulletins holiness
when the facts are all against it. AS
to the matter of printing pages filled
with boiler plate, part of it furnish
ed free by a railroad company. any
paper that is foolish enough. can do
that. But even on the ground of
general reading the Review has the
Bulletin beaten. The Review with its
Magazine Section is equivalent to 20
pages, showing the Review six pages
to the good. But it is in the matter
of home set news that the Review
shines. and where it wants to shine.
1t is the home news that counts in a
home paper.
Exclusive of display advertising
and legal notices last weeks Bulletin
contained 423 inches OF home set type.
while the Review contained 500
inches. A balance of l67 inches. near
ly eight columns and half. in favor
of the Review. In this we did not
count the Review Market Column.
while all such notices were included
in the Bulletins measurment. This
is difference of over SO percent ir
favor of the Review.
Never in its history has the Bulle
tin come within 25 percent of the Re
view in regard to home set matter
never has it approached the Review
In correspondence service or in loca
news. The Bulletin is good enough
paper. but it is not in the Review
class. and for its own sake we woul'
not advise it to invite further com
parsons.

NO SUPREME COURT DECISION.

NO SUPREME COURT DECISION.
We are desired to correct serious
misstatemenJ in the Bulletin to the
effect that the Supreme Court had
decided that "juries were invalid
where any members served as election
officers when their names were re-
turned for Jury service
Such a decision has never been
rendered by the Supreme Court. The
district court of Polk county made
such decision and it was taken to the
supreme court. which refused to make
a ruling. The Supreme Court decided
that the parties applying for the
writ had no standing to question the
action or the district court. In short
il was held that the petitioners pre-
scented only a moot case, and refused
to consider the case on its merits.
1t is impossible to state what the
decision may be, should the question
ever be properly brought before the
Supreme Court, but at present no such
decision has been rendered. although
the decision of the Polk county Judges
is on record. For the sake of fair
ness it is we'll to keep history
straight.

EDITo RIAL.

Altogether the most solemn and
beautiful festival of the Christian
year. is the Easter time. We have
corrupted it as we have almost every
thing else. Decoration Day has be-
come synonymous with base ball.
Fourth Of July with mangled youths
and creased pigs. Thanksgiving with
football and Christmas with shop
ping. Easter has become the day for
the tidal wave in Spring fashions and
new hats. But after all one cannot
but be impressed with the import of
these days and most of all with the
tremendous story of the Easter-tide.
All of US take life seriously enough
but we have mistaken idea as to
what constitutes life. cit is not all
of life to live. or all of death to
die. The important matter is not so
much that we live. or that we should
live. but how we live. If it is true
that this life is but a preparatory
state. if it is true that here is either
a Heaven or he'll, if it is true that
the only entrance to the better life is
through the sacrifice made by Christ
on Calvary. if these things be true.
we repeat. nothing else in human life
is Of Importance. If it is true that
your course of life is imperilling your
happiness for an eternity. If it is
true that your son or your brother or
your friend is in much worse than
deadly peril. what on earth does it
matter if you go hungry or cold or
shelterless so long as you shall sue
coed in saving yourself or them.
b, We have no patience with the So
called Christian who puts on his
Christianity with his Sunday coat ana
takes it off with his coat on Sunday
night. We have no patience with the
Christian who is not an active Christ
ian. the Christian who is content not
to do anything bad. To be Christian
one must be an active force for good.
There are no Christians but Christians
militant.
Ohe time we saw man join a
church and pronounce. publicly but
without ostentation. openly but with
out blaze of trumpets, his allegiance
to Christianity We could not help
but wonder what he meant by it. We
do not know. for long ago he drifted
from our ken, but we could not but
feel that he would have been a ire
mendous power for good if hehad put
the same interest and intelligence and
industry into being Christian that
the ordinary man puts into the ordi-
nary affairs of life. We have men
who are active in lodge circles. who
are active in politics. who are act
i've in business, but we have mighty
few men who are active in Christian
ity. 1t must be because they do not
believe, because. if one believes in
the Christian idea of future life
and the Scriptural scheme of saliva
ton, nothing else in all this worle
is of Importance.
For the man who does not believe
we can see excuse. but for the mar
who does believe we see no more ex
cuse than for the man who deliber
ately remains in burning house
without an effort to save either him
self or his compositions. If you are 3
Christian, get busy. every day tina
you are Indifferent or inactive give
the lie to your professions.
