ITALIANS DRIVEN OUT BY MOB.
Boy Shot at Beatrice, Neb., Dies
From his Wounds.

Beatrice, Neb., April 26.-Clyde
Price, II years old, stepson of Frank
Weisner shot at Wymore Saturday by
Bertruoi, an Italian railroad laborer,
died yesterday. Bertruci, who was
threatened Saturday night by a mob,
was rescued by Sheriff Trude and
brought to Beatrice, where he is now
in the county Jail under guard.
After he had been taken away, the
angry crowd Of 400 Wymore men at.
tackled the Italian railroad camp and
drove the foreigners from the town,
warning them not to return. The
crowd then set fire to bunk cars oc.
cupied by the laborers. They were
burned with the belongings Of the
Italians. f.
There was talk of the mob follow
ing the sheriff to Beatrice and wreak-
ing vengeance on the Italian, but 1t
was decided to wait the result of
young Prices injuries. The riot
spirit had subsidized somewhat before
the boy died, and it is believed the
trouble is over.

WESTERN CANADA'S
HAPPY PROSPECTS.

-ENt
In no year since the development Of
Western Canada began has spring
brought a brighter outlook than it
brings this year. In no preceding
spring has there been greater assur-'
ance of advancing development and
prosperity. The movement Of immi-
grafton has already assumed large pro-
portions, and is as desirable in char
acter as it is satisfactory in volume;
from across the Atlantic sturdy, indus
trious and thrifty newcomers are ar
irving in large numbers, h~omeseekers
from Ontario and the other older
Provinces are coming in a steady
stream, and from across the interna-
tional boundary a movement is al
ready in full flow, which, it is conf
IDENTIFY predicted, will beat the records
Of all previous years; special settlers
trains are crossing the line, loaded
with effects, actual material wealth
being thus brought into the country at
the rate Of millions of dollars worth
monthly.
The movement is SO unprecedented

ton officials have had to be provided
at both North Portal and at Emerson,
and it Is estimated that the total num-
Der of new settlers from the United
States this year will be 10000, at
least, and may run well up toward
100000. Last years total of new set
tiers from the South was 1928; thus
the area that will be placed in wheat
and other grains this year will greatly
exceed that Of last year. Settlers are
making extraordinary efforts to get on
their lands and begin seeding opera
lions. The price of wheat now, away
above the dollar mark, is incentive
enough, and when one has in view the
splendid results that the past few
years have shown, it is not to be won
dered at that the present will be the
banner year for immigration to Can
ada. Ask your nearest Canadian Gov
eminent Agent for rates of %transporta-
ton, and he will also send you illus
trated pamphlets.
