OFFICIAL INVITATION
TO AMERICANS
HOW ROBERT ROGERS, MINISTER
OF THE INTERIOR, IN WINNIPEG
ADDRESS, ISSUES WELCOME
OF AMERICANS TO WEST
ERIN CANADA.

During the course OF a reply TO an
address presented to Hon Robert Rog'
ers, the newly appointed Minister OF
the Interior of Canada at a banquet
given at Winnipeg in his honor that
gentleman spoke on immigration. The
tone OF his remarks was that he intend
ed TO pursue an aggressive and for
ward policy In the matter OF immigra
ton. In part, he said
The most important branch per
haps of that department Qnterior) Is
that Of immigration.
III there Is anything more than an
other we want here It is a greater pop
ulation. and It shall be my duty TO pre-
sent to the people in all parts OF tho
world where desirable emlgrants are
to be found the advantages and the
great possibilities OF this country. We
have received In the past reasonably
large immigration from south OF tho
International boundary, and in this
connection let me say Just word for
our American cousins who have found
happy homes amongst US, and those
whom we hope to welcome In greater
numbers In the years to come. There
are hundreds Of thousands OF them In
our prairie provinces, happy in the en-
joyment of freedom as great as they
ever knew, and all contributing In
material way towards the development
of Canada We are not blind to their
value as settlers. They come better
equipped with scientific farming
knowledge than most OF our emil.
grants, and constitute withon doubt
the wealthiest class Of emigTants any
new country has ever known. AS
head of the immigration department It
will be my privilege to offer them a
welcome hearty and sincere. and to
SO contribute to their welfare that un.
Jack they will enjoy as great degree
Of liberty and happiness as under the
Stars and Stripes. The Borden gov.
eminent chcrishes nothing but the
kindiest feelings for the people OF tho
great republic to the south, and will
do all in its power to Increase the
bonds OF kinship and neighborly good
feeling that has so long existed.
(Iear, hear.)
while we adopt a vigorous emil.
grafton policy in that country, We will
also adopt the same vigorous policy In
other parts Of the world. We will go
to England, Ireland and Scotland, and
every other country irrespective OF
race, creed or nationality, where We
can find suitable and desirable emf.
grants for this great country. | think
much good work can be done in those
countries, and especially perhaps at
the present time In England, Ireland
and Scotland. Now, then, II will be
my duty to stir up that policy In the
most vigorous manner possible"

Of the insurrectos.
To add to the difficulties of the sit

There are no surrounding trenches.
To the southwest there is hill, at
the base OF which are the barracks in
which the garrison is quartered. Up
the hill from the barracks is the
penitentiay and beyond 1t the city

by two Colts rapid fire guns. II the
hill is captured by the rebels, the con-

consisting of five troops Of cavalry,
numbering about 500 men, last re-
