since, said the man who took twenty
years to answer my question:
And this constant stream of human
freight, extending over a period of
twenty years, what has it done for
Canada? We first note an increase
in her population Of over 5,000,000
people during that time, most of
whom found homes in the west. I'm
fortunately for Canada and Canadian
prosperity, the Government has ex-
ercised too little care in the past in
the selection of emigrants. 1t re-
cognized only the need of men to
cultivate and till the soil. As this
need could not be supplied on this
side of the Atlantic, it invaded the
Old World. From the over-crowded
countries of Europe only the most
shiftl less and undesirable were
tempted by the offers of free land
and assistance made by the Govern
ment. In 1923 several thousands
Doukhobors, from southern Russia
were transported to Canada. Each
was given a grant of free land and
such other assistance as they needed.
They came as wards of the Govern
ment and have ever remained as USE
less and expensive charges.
Canada still continued to hold her
arms open to the world. To each
homeseeker she offered 160 acres
of free land and the civil equalities
which Canadian citizenship assures.
During the last few years a far bet
ter element has invaded Western
Canada. Up to the end Of the year
1909 over 100000 acres of free
land were taken up by people from
the United States alone. During
the same year more than 10000 new
homes were reared on the prairie
provinces. The worth of this class
and the honesty of their Intentions
are vouched for by the fact that a
careful estimate shows that no less
than SIS, 900, 900 of American money
and personal effects passed through
the gates of the Emigration Depart
ment in 1909 alone.
These facts have caused the u. S.
Government some anxiety during the
past year. A broad and compre-
hensive view of the matter does not
seem to disclose any reasonable
grounds for apprehension. Consid-
ering the wonderful future of Can
ada, which the present outlook as
sures, one can not but conclude that
much closer relation must exist be-
tween the two countries in the fu-
ture. Canada is destined to become
a world power. There is no nation
on earth more richly endowed. It's
area is greater than that Of the United
States In Western Canada alone
there are over $4,000. 900 acres of
tillable soil, of which but A, ,0OO, 900
acres are homesteaded. In the year
1909, the 10000, 900 acres under the
plow yielded crop valued at $685.
100000. If the time ever comes
and come it surely will within the
next few decades when the entire
portion of that vast country is re-
duced to state of production, Can
ada will be in position to yield four
and half billion bushels of wheat
annually, or one billion bushels in
excess of the entire worlds output
for 1909. When that time comes
the United States is certain to profit
by their close relation. The time is
limited when this country will be.

where is there apparent the slightest
disposition to interfere.
1t was learned at the close of con-
ference at the White House today at
tended by Senator Cullom and Repre-
sentative Sulzer. chairmen respectively
of the senate and house committees ON
foreign affairs, that President Taft,
for the present at least, does not con-
template sending to congress a spe-
cial message dealing with Mexican af-
fairs. The president however, is
keeping the leaders of both parties
there thoroughly acquainted with de-
velopments.
Politics has been eliminated. There
is no disposition in either branch Of
congress to demand of the president
his reasons for sending the troops to
the Rio Grande. Before congress
convened the victorious democrats an
nouneed their intention of making an
issue of the mobilization movement.
In the house Representative Gar
rett offered resolution directing
the committee on foreign affairs to in
vestigate the Mexican situation with
especiall reference to conditions along
the border. Senator Stone of Mis-
souri,. offered a resolution of similar
nature yesterday in the senate, EN-,
powering the committee on foreign re-
lations to conduct such an investiga
ton, and he proposes to speak in sup
port of it Friday. In the event Of gen.
eral discussion II is expected the atti
tude of the senate will be made clear.

GOMEZ HOPES FOR SPEEDY
TERMINATION OF H0STLITIEss

Washington, April 1S.-Dr Vasquez
Gomez, head of the confidential
agency of the Mexican revolutionists
here, admitted tonight that proposal
for an armistice had been sent to the
Mexican government and that favor
able reply had been received.
It was learned that he had tele-
graphed the insurrecto junta in FL
Paso to communicate this information
to General Francisco l. Madero. Jr., in
the field and to obtain from him at
once the definite conditions upon
which he would agree to an armistice.
1t is said that the Mexican govern
ment will permit couriers to pass
through Juarez so as to facilitate the
transmission of the messages arrang-
ing an armistice.
The armistice proposed would i'm
pose the status quo upon both sides in
of Sonora and would continue pend
ing the arrangements cf a peace con-
ference. DIR. Gomez will not be able
to definitely settle reply to the Mexi-
can government until he received
word from the forces in the field that
an armistice is acceptable.
The proposals went forward to Mex
leo City today after long conference
by DR.. Gomez with friends here last
night. 1t was pointed ont to DR..
Gomez that international complca-
tions might result from continuation
of hcstilities along the Amerscan bor-
der and that much time was5 eisf lost
by both sides IN the infol ihik over
lures being made towards pace.
1t was suggested that speedy
termination Of hostilities could be
effected IL DR.. Gomez left for El Paso,
where he might communicate readily
with the forces in the field.
If the armistice in Chihuahua and
Sonora Is arranged. 1t is probable
some measures will be suggested for
other states where the revolt prevails
Chihuahua and Sonora were included
in the armistice because it was believ-
ed quicker communication could be ef-
fected with the forces there and it was
hoped by those who suggested the
plan that other sections automatlcal-
~ would become inactive penor's

lBy Morning Journal Special Leased wlrel
Washington, April iS.-Democratic
leaders are prepared for an attempt
by republicans who oppose Canadian

bodying all of the free list that the
democratic ways and means commit

Republicans have charged that "
the democrats were In earnest to have
this free list passed they would Of
fer It as a part of the reciprocity
bill SO that President Taft could
not find occasion TO veto Il, even
though II did not meet with his APP

Chairman Underwood Is apparently
proceeding on the belief that an
amendment viii be offered when the
bill comes up for passage. He said
such an amendment will be at once
ruled out of order. as II could not
be considered "germane to the hill'
under the house rules permitting the
offering OF amendments
The only amendments that can be
considered are those specifically af-
fecting duties collected In the rect

amendments II is expected there viii
be an overwhelming negative vote.

the open debate tomorrow night.
