I'll wrestle you winner take all,
Westergard," spoke up the Chicago

1T is rather late in the day for such
a proposition" he said. "Why late ?"
broke In Cutler.
II have heard some remarks YOU
people have made" continued Cutler,

OTTAWA. Jan. 2s.--The Minister of the
Interior, whose department includes the
immigration Department OF Canada, and
the officials under him are much exercised
over the statements made before the Sem
ate lobby committee at Washington the
other day by CORTLAND Smith, when he
told the committee that the Canadian Gov
eminent was using the Western News
paper Union for the dissemination
throughout the Western States of mislead-
ing Information about Canada.
II Is said that the cost of Canada's adj
vertising campaign in the United States
and Europe aggregates nearly three-Quar-
tiers OF "A million dollars a year.
The present policy was inaugurated by
the Hon. Frank Oliver. who was Sir Will
frid Lauriers Minister OF the Interior.
The Canadian RAILWAYS Join with the Gov
eminent in its advertising and general
publicity work, and OF course are heavy
gamers thereby.
The Assistant Superintendent OF lmmi-

SUN correspondent:
"rhe Western Newspaper Union is an
