Tide Turns from Canada.

The drift to Canada is checked. The
tide of immigration, in fact, has turned.
More people came from Canada to the
United States in 1928 than passed
from the United States to Canada.
According to the report of the COM
missioner general of immigration for
1913 there came from Canada to the
United States from July |, 1912, to
July |, 1913, 1851 persons. OF this
number 54,497 Canadian citizens, 44,70l
Canadian citizens, and 44,4l3 other
aliens.
In the same year there went from the
United States to Canada a total of $780,
664 persons, and of that number $1,000
were United States citizens, 1920 Cam
adam citizens, and 23,725 other aliens.
A net gain for the United States of IL,
947.
The tide turned in 1928, for in the
preceding fiscal year Canada had net
gain of 35,30s. Undoubtedly the next
annual report, for l9l3-l4, will reveal
a still hevier drift from Canada to the
United States, for the collapse of the
western Canadian land boom is sending
settlers homeward in an increasing
stream.
The Canadian government is striving,
with the free use of advertising space
in newspapers in the United States, to
stem the turning tide, but apparently
with slight results. The glamour is
gone, the bloom is off the fruit, and dis
couraging reports from returning Ameri
cans more than Offset the advertising of
the government across the line.
This presages renewed movement of
immigration and capital into the west
ern United States. Evidences of this
turn in the tide are already visible in
the Inland empire. Our people have
quit specializing in Canadian wheat
lands and town lots, and many who
went across the line from Spokane and
the inland empire have returned. Their
numbers will increase.
Yet western Canada has vast re-
sources and viii recover from this col
lapse, as Washington and Oregon recov-
cred from the collapse of the land boom
in the early 90's. It's great open spaces
will be filed, but the return movement
will never be as spectacular and enticing
as the one that has just passed. And
we shall never witness another hegira
out of the inland empire like that which
has now passed into history. For sew
eral years at least the movement will
be toward the SOUTH rsttleboro Re-
former.

Names Moose Call.

If the first gnbernatorial nomination
of 1914 is anything to Judge by there
will be no lack OF ginger in the coming
off year elections. Halbert p. Gardner,
known as "Hsl" to everybody in Maine
politics, is a fighter from a family of
fighters. and as the head of the Progress
sive ticket and the first man that the
Maine Progressives have ever nominated
for governor he can be counted on to
start something and keep it moving,
Moreover, his leadership in the Bull
Moose ranks is particularly fitting, for
his home is in Patten, in the northern
part of the state, right in the heart of
the big game region, and from birth he
has been familiar with that animal that
is now his party totem.
He was an active Republican for
years and served in both branches of
the legislature, where his aggressive and
independent tactics marked him from
the day of his first appearance in the
state house. When Col. Ross of Bangor
defeated him for the executive council
his Republican ardor cooled, and it was
an easy step into the new party, of
which he is now the national commit
teeman from Maine. He was a delegate
to the Chicago convention of 1912. His
Progressive principles are no more pro-
gressiye than those of most Republican
leaders of Maine, but like other leaders
OF the new party, which clings to life in
Maine with remarkable persistence, he
is out to "do" the old party, and to get
even for real and imagined wrongs.
Of course, he has not the slightest
show of election, and nobody knows that
better than he does, but he will lead one

GOOD ADVERTISING FOR VERMONT

.
The secretary of the Vermont state
board of health, DIR. Dalton, finds the
state fairly free of epidemics." Inter
preted in the commonly accepted sense,
that assertion means that the state is
far better off than usual as regards con-
tagious disease and that the situation is
altogether encouraging. Such being the

states are likely to come among the

a comparatively clean bill of health like
that flor to all intents and purposes it
is clean bill of HEALTHY would do the
state vast amount of good inasmuch
as it would prove strong guarantee
that people who come into the state dur
ing the months next succeeding need
have little fear of contracting contagious
disease of any sort. Such assurance

for generally healthful conditions viii

many more people TO come to Vermont
rather than to go to some other recrea-
ton field where the conditions were not
so certain. And Vermont is capable of
taking care of many more people at
some period OF the summer than it has
taken care of in seasons past. For that
reason, DIR. Dalton's report is worthy OF
being widely used.

makes his election seem assured, since
the Republican margin of victory was
only few thousand in 1912.
There is one great element of uncer-
tainty, however, and that is the extent
of the Bull Moose split as result of
the straddle on prohibition at the Ban
gor convention Tuesday. Thousands of
men who might have followed Gardner
will go to Haines as result of the
action of the convention. VIII there be
enough left of the party, already re-
duced by wholesale assertions and re-
sentful of its ring management, to de-
feat the Republicans, and give Maine
hack to full Democratic control? That
is the one question in the coming Maine

chance to see something of the work

fire lighting, cooking, signaling, and
many other such activities. There
will also be a talk on the principles
and methods of scouting, illustrated
