To Editors, Business Men, Clergym en-,
Farmers, and All Whom it may Con-
Germ:
Dear Sirs. I am writing to ask you
to favor me with the names and ad-
dress of as many respectable colored
families in your district that you may
know, who desire to come to settle in
Canada, province Of British Columbia.
Coming here from the States seven
years ago l have been very successful
in my undertakings; I now feel it my
duty, as far as possible, to try to be of
some service to my race. What wish
them to know is that I have 400 acres
of rich, black loan, garden land all
cleared, divided in blocks of five acres;
will build good, comfortable homes Of
two to ten rooms, barns, sheds, etc.,
and give them the greatest opportunity
of their lives to pay for them. Only
small payment required, balance to
run five years; can be paid off in two
years from produce raised. Railway
and Electric lines pass through the
property; close to churches, schools
and postoffice.
Maps, plans, etc., ready August, 18th
Advise others who may be interested,
to write me at once.
Thanking you in advance, I am,
Yours faithfully.

A CORRECTION

Last week we ran an article under
head of "Keokuk Special' concerning
an automobile party. There was no
name signed to the article, and it look
ed so innocent that it passed on to the
compositor and was run in last weeks
issue. But it seems that the article
was intended to work mischief, as we
have received letter from Mr.. Cliff
ton Ashby and Mrs., Dora Robinson,
stating that they were not participants
of this joy ride, 1t is a rule of the
editor to run no article unless they are
signed, but he being out of the city we
had overlooked this rule, therefore we
we find ourselves in trouble. Hereaf-
ter we intend to use a fine tooth comb,
so you had better attach your name to
ALL articles if you expect to see them
in the Bystander.
