However the higher circles OF ofhcialdom
are by no means dependent upon the pubic
service for their telephone facilities. Tney
have a very ingenious system of their own. IL
is a secret network of wires, and, very natural
ly. It is centered In the White House. Pri-
marily, this confidential telephone web consists
of special private telephone wire leading
from the White House to each of the nine. de-
partments of the government The main pur'
pose of this is to enable the chief magistrate
to at any moment consult with any of his nine
cabinet officers without any danger OF caves
dropping, but of course, should the president
desire to communicate confdentially by phone
with any subordinate In any of the depart
ments. II Is a simple matter to summon such
individual to the secret phone rather than to
have him communicate with the White House
via the regular telephone channels.
Equally important as arteries of quick COM
munication, the two special telephone
wires leading from the White House to the
United States capitol One of these lines leads
into the great exchange at the big white-domed
building. and through this central" the presi-
dent can get connection with the private office
of any senator representative, with the
cloak rooms other rendezvous of the law.
makers The other line from the White House
to the capitol Is strictly secret line. Not
only does II not lead into the exchange at the
capitol, but the terminal is not accessible to
any person save Win the presidents sanction.
1t is safe to say that there are men who have
been In congress for years, who do not know
OF the existence of this secret line to the
White House, much less know the location OF
its terminal However the line serves a most
important purpose, for II enables the president
TO at any time. confer with the vice-president

The above caption about represents
the growth of Central Canada. The
statement was made not long since by
a railroad man who claimed to have
made the remarkable discovery that
such was the case. There Is not a
district of a fair amount OF settle
ment in any of the three Provinces OF
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
but has its school, and the railways
have stations every seven or eight
miles apart, around which group the
towns, some large and some small,
but each important to its own district.
Schools are largely maintained by pub
lie funds and the expense of tuition Is
but nominal sum.
The final returns of the grain pro-
duction for Central Canada for 1909 is
now in, and the figures show that the
value of the crops to the farmers OF
that country is about 1876 million dol
lars, as compared with 100 million last
year. American farmers or those who
have gone from the United States, will
participate largely in these splendid
returns, and these comprise those who
have gone from nearly every State In
the Union.
One of the many proofs that might
be put forward showing the immense
wealth that comes to the farmers OF
Central Canada is seen in the sum
that has been spent during the past
two or three months by the farmers
who have for the time being ceased
worrying over the reaper and the
thresher, and are taking to enjoying
themselves for two or three months
1t is said that fifty thousand people OF
these Western Provinces spent the
holiday season visiting their old
homes. Most of these passengers paid
forty and some forty-fve dollars for
the round trip. Some went to Great
Britain, some to the Continent, others
to their old homes in Eastern Canada,
and many thousands went to visit
their friends in the States. The amount
paid alone in transportation would be
upward of two million dollars. Some
make the trip every years. 1t need
not be asked, Can they afford it?'
With crops yielding them a profit or
$40 to $25 per acre, and some having
as much as twelve hundred or more
acres, the question is answered. The
Canadian Government Agents at diff
ferent points in the States report that
they have interviewed a great many
of those who are now visiting friends
in the terent states, and they all ex-
press themselves as well satisfied.
friends back with them. There is still
lot of free homestead land in splen-
did districts, and other lands can be
purchased at a reasonable price from
railway and land companies.

WONDER CAMP is COMING vi

From a letter received from
Bill Ellis, editor the Mining
News of Wonder. he sets forth
the fact that the town is on the
verge of another boom. A pipe line
is being laid to the town, mining
activity is on the move, eastern peo-
pie are quietly getting in on the
ground floor and houses that we're
empty are again occupied. Every
body in that section knows Bill. He
is an optimist of the first water
and a sticker from way back. In
conclusion he states:
1--WE can't be headed off any
longer as we have the Indian sign
on EN-. We expect in a week or
two, at the most, to have a town
that is a town again, with whiskey,
faro banks, roulette wheels, police
men, politicians and an election.

make up ripsnorting mining
camp"
