Washington-Presid Taft Thurs
lay sent to congress his second mess
age of the present year on economy
and efficiency in the government SER
vice. He recommended the passage
Of legislation designed to save more
than $11,O00.00O annually to the peo-
pie of the United States. Probably
his two most striking proposals were
that the local government Offices In
the treasury. postofiice. justice. in
lerior and commerce and labor depart.
ments be placed in the classified
service and that the revenue cutter
service be consolidated with the light
house service in the department OF
commerce and labor.
BY the first change the president
says congress could effect saving OF
At least $10.OOO,00O annually and al.
though in this message he gave no
figures for the consolidation Of the
.wo services of the sea, in a previous
message on the same subject early In
he year. he predicted economies that
would total about $1000,0OO yearly.

WHY, PEOPLE GO TO
CANADA

Those who are wondering why the
humber Of Americans going to Canada
year by year increases in tho rates
that It does. would not be so surprised
were they to accompany one Of the
numerous excursions that are being
run under the auspices Of the Govern.
ment from several OF the states, and
remain with the settler until he gets
onto the free homesteads. which, az
stated by Speaker Champ Clark, in the
u. 8. senate the other day. comprises
160 acres Of the most fertile soil and
with remarkably easy settlement con.
ditions. Then watch the results,
whether II be on this free homestead
OF 160 acres or on land which he may
purchase at from SIS. to $50. per acre,
fully as good as the 800. and $50.
per acre land Of his native state. and
which his means will not permit his
purchasing. On the part OF the mem.
bers OF the U. s. Senate and Congress
there Is nothing but praise for Canada
Canadian laws and Canadian lands al
though the reasonable desire Is shown
In their remarks, that they pass legis.
lation, (which IL very praiseworthy)
