CANADA'S GOOD TIMES,
The immigration During 1906 Was
$4,000.

While il is we'll to heed every
word of caution from the leaders in
commerce and finance and to avoid
all speculative ventures that lack a
solid business foundation, II is clearly
evident that there is no conspicuous
weak spot in Canada's present era OF
prosperity. The Toronto Globe says:

sense plenty of money, n our lead.

sition to lend freely in the United

is quite reasonable to assume that
although mineral wealth is never
permanent, ours will during the
measurable future develop a far
greater productive capacity than al
present. Our timber wealth can be
made continuous by a judicious pol
icy. And agriculture. the real foun
dation of our prosperity, is expanding
with every new expenditure on rail
way construction. We are not in
the flush of a railway mania that
could bring its punishment through
the useless duplication of lines. The
gigantic railway enterprises that
now stimulate every line of business
in Canada will create a new Domin

burdens of debt now freely assumed

might have gone on to relate the
great growth that is taking place in
Central Canada, where thousands OF
Americans have made their home,
during the past few years. The past
calendar year has given to Canada by
importation an addition Of 216, 900 tc
it's population. OF this the Emitted
States contributed 63,7S1. The agents
of the Canadian government, whose
advertisement appears elsewhere, say
that this number will be largely in
creased during 1907.

Bates Did Not knOw It.

Leastwise that is the statement he

of the strikers that others than
residents of Minnesota have been
sworn in as peace officers in the
present strike on this range. In re.
ply to the complaint that such had
been done Sheriff Bates, in a letter
to the governor. AYERS that he
brought but about ten deputies
from Duluth in his effort to quell
the present disturbance, but that he
swore in some $50 deputies on the
range-whom he did not know but
whom he alleges were vouched for
by good and reputable citizens.
However, there are many men on
the range who do not believe some
of the acting deputies are legal
citizens of Minnesota, and their re-
tention in their present positions
as peace officers does not tend tc
thwart the object of the striking
miners to attain a share of public
sympathy.
There are reputable men, an6

SHOT IN the BACK.
An Eveleth Man Shot by q Guard at
the Oliver Friday NiQht.

At shortly after train time Friday
evening last man giving his name
as George Rakowsky, was shot IN
the back while trying to escape
from the guards at the Oliver.
The man had come from the train
and was apprehended by the guards
while walking through the Oliver
property. He was taken to the
Office and closely questioned, but
as his answers were not ga atisfactory
the guard started to take him to the
city Jail. On the way he suddenly
broke from the guards and made
dash for it, refusing to hear the
orders to stop, when the guards
opened fire, one bullet striking him
in the back.
Drs. Grove and Miller were eoliod
and the man was later removed to
the More Hospital at Eveleth,
where it is understood the bullet
was later located and removed and
he is said to be getting along
nicely.
Rakowsky is said to be a married
man residing at Eveleth, and was
on his way to visit brother on the
Franklin hill when he ran into the
trouble. Not understanding the
restrictions against crossing the
mining company property under
existing labor conditions he started
to take short cut across the
mining property, but it is safe
wager he will look up a different
route another time or will heed the
guards when given an order to halt
The report that the injured man
was member of the Western Fed
Grafton brought a crowd of work
men to the Jail in short order, bu,
it is definitely stated Rakowsky
does not belong to the union.

TAXED HIM $50 AND COSTS.
Chas. Turine Is Assessed for keep;nq
His Saloon Open on Sunday.

In the fourteen cases brought
against as many saloon keepers of
the city for violations of the state
liquor law, a test case was made of
the charge against Chas. Turine, of
Turine Bros, in municipal court
yesterday morning, and the defend.
ant was assessed fine of $50 and
costs or given the alternative of
going dry for thirty days while en-
joying free board and lodging at
the county Jail.
The defense was represented by
Alexander Marshall OF Duluth and
Judge John NJ. Martin of this city,
and notice OF appeal was given.
The other thirteen cases we're also
held in allegiance awaiting the out
come of this appeal and it's decision
in district court, bond of $50 from
each defendant being required.
The ground of this appeal, as
stated, is on the validity of the city
ordinance under which the com
plants were made, the attorney for
the defense alleging that the Vir-
ginia ordinance was practically a
copy of the Duluth ordinance
governing such cases and that in
Duluth none would longer bring
action under the ordinance, but that
all actions against violators of the
liquor laws were started under the
state law. Such being the case it is
not unlikely that similar actions in
future brought in this city will also
be under the state law.
The defendants may appeal and
thereby drag out the cases to an
indefinite settlement, but the fact
remains thatany man would have to
stultify his conscience should he 20
on the stand and take oath that he
does not know that the liquor laws
of the state are being violated every
Sunday and every day in the week
in the city of Virginia, and unless
we mistake the men behind the
prosecution and the motive prompt
ing their action in bringing the
cases the end of the prosecutions
will not close even should the
district court decide that the citv
ordinance supposedly governing
the matter is at fault.

FAY-CANANEA A fine PROPERTY
What Others Think of the Mine and the Men Behind 1t, As
Told by the Chicago Trade Journal.

1t is not always easy to draw the.
line between speculation and in
vestment, and particularly is this
true of mining enterprises. The
very fact that 80 many have fairly
stumbled onto large fortunes by
that species of accident commonly
described as duck" in this class of
enterprise has had dangerous
tendency to encourage a general
credulity in the extravagant pro.
misses of promoters of mining
schemes, the alleged brilliant pro-
ducts of which exist largely in the
vivid imagination of the men who
write their alluring prospectuses.
And while practical mining men
are not deceived by any such
schemes, it is unfortunately true
that many men of wealth and stand
ing, acting in good faith and with
entirely honorable intent, lend the
strength given by their names to
the support of purely speculative
mining propositions.
Albeit there is no form of invest
,nent more legitimate and none
yielding such returnsa as those based
on mining enterprises and promoted
by practical men, applying the
same sound business principles to
mining which they would to the de-
velopment of any manufacturing
or commercial undertaking.
On general principles it may be
said that the man who desires an
investment and not a speculation
and is capable of recognizing the
distinction between the two will
not buy stock in any company
whose promises are based upon
possibilities instead of actual fact,
and upon what they propose to do,
not what they have done. It is,
therefore, from the standpoint that
should be taken by those who are
seeking Legitimate investment, that
we hope to render service by call
ing their attention to the Fay

actual work that has been accom-
plished by the company, to the
