UNCLE JOE CANNON
He ALSO SPEAKS WELL OF CAN.
ADA.

No matter what may be the opinion
Of Mr.. Joseph Cannon, no matter If
he may be looked upon by some as
car, and by others as q big7xarm-
hearted man, with many Of the\in-
stincts that make humanity very bear
able, all will admit that he is a man
who has been advertised more than
any other man in the United States.
What he may have to say therefore
on any subject, will have weight. OBJ.
servant, he speaks his mind freely.
He was interviewed the other day by
the correspondent Of Canadian
newspaper. He spoke Of his admiration
for Canada, and he is quoted in way
that pictures fairly well the personai
Of the man. The correspondent says
he launched out into personal BIZ
ography, proverbial philosophy, politi-
cal comment, cynical scorn, broad pro-
family and sentimental poetry such as
one rarely hears in the space Of an
hour. He discussed the Canadian ia
riff, and then said: People say !
break the Ten Commandments, all of
them. But don't, at least not often.
l did break one of them up in Canada
two or three years ago. AS I rode
from Winnipeg to the Rockies over
your great West and saw the finest
wheatfelds in the world, thought of
Virginia and a lot Of our States, and
I smashed the Tenth Commandment
every hour Of the journey. Yes, sir,
[ coveted my neighbours land" Com.
ing from a man of the fame Of Mr..
Cannon, these were words that should
have some weight with the Americans
who may still have doubts Of the ad-
vantages that are offered to them in
Western Canada. A home amongst
the wheatfields. Hundreds Of thou
sands Of Americans are adopting It.
They go to Central Canada, to any
one Of the three Provinces Of Mani

bia, take up their homestead of 100
acres, and probably pre-empt another
160 acres, or 1t may be they do not
care for pioneering twenty or thirty
miles from an existing railway, and
purchase a farm. Then they settle
upon it and, having no clearing away
of timber they begin at once to cul-
tivate it, and make money. That they
make money and much more than
they could possibly make on the high
priced farms they have left, is the
evidence Of hundreds Of thousands.
They do not leave civilized life. they
but remove from one sphere to an
other They have splendid social con-
ditions, churches, schools, rural tele-
phones, splendid roads, railways, con-
venient just the same as what they
left, and what is more, they get much
greater returns from their crops,
which give abundant yield. The eli
mate is perfect, and it is no wonder
that most flattering reports are sent
back to their friends in the States,
and 1t is no wonder that Joe Cannon
was tempted to speak as he did. He
coveted" his neighbours land.

Lots OF Alarm, But
No Fire To Fight
STILL, THINGS WOULD HAVE
HAPPENED If THOSE H.
900 ROUNDS OF AMUNI-
TION HAD GONE OFF.

An alarm of fire sent in early
Monday morning, and understood by
the telephone operator to be the old
armory, occupied at present by the
Roller Skating Rink, but in reality
at the new armory, down on the
other side of the river, sent the fire
engine and three hose carts on a
wild goosechase down Eleventh
street.
A more disgusted looking lot of
men than the returning volunteers
would be hard to find, especially
when they learned that there
wasn't a fire even, either at the old
which had been kindled by Michael
Stall, the janitor of the Park Place
Armory in a new basement range,
the smoke of which issuing from a
low chimney, and the smell of burn
ing varnish commonly arising from
the iron work of stove when fire
is built in it for the first time, lead
ing some timorous person with an
acute sense of smell to turn in an
alarm.
The conflagration might easily
have turned out to be a severe one
however, as there were fully 144,-
900 rounds of loaded ammunition
stored in one corner of the Armory
1t will be remembered that when
the old skating rink burned some
years ago, there were several thous-
and rounds of ammunition stored
in it, and the work of fighting the
fire was attended with considerable
danger.
