Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - October 22, 1875, Winnipeg, Manitoba Lite Friday oct. 22, 1875. Of . An article in Tho Xic do i advertiser under this heading by changing a few names would apply in v7innipeg about As anything to have come across a a Long time. It reads As follows if r. W. J. Patterson Secretary of Dominion Board of issued his circular preparatory to. The sixth an Nual meeting of that body at it will to seen from Tho circular that boards Are requested consider Tho Best Means of increasing Tho member ship influence and usefulness of the fundamental bodies. Thoro is great need to do so. Take for instance our so called London Board of Trade from which Tho leading mercantile Ronen of the City now hold indifferently to Soo now and then half a dozen people marshalled by or. Thomas Church or assembled around a Dusty Green Baito Cov Rod table resolving this and that in the name Forsooth of Tho mercantile Community of London is enough to pro Voke a Smilo on the lips of a Marble Saint. If other local boards Are at All like ours Thoy do not Lack a conspicuous element of Humbug. Or. Secretary Patterson is quite right in earnestly de siring an accession of influence and importance to those local boards. Or. Patterson might do a needed work by repressing upon his local Brethren in various sections Tho necessity of eschew ing politics As a primal condition of Success and influence. Or. Patterson in his circular advises that Tho valuable Aid of Tho newspaper press to in coked by bringing Tho Aims and objects of the Board under the particular notice of whenever that is to have complied with Tho implied in it important that some of Tho defects and hindrances of boards of Trade becoming really representative bodies should be pointed a new Colony. From Tho Montreal Witcoski. We have news from Winnipeg that a Colony of Over 300 icelanders under Tho charge of or John Taylor who is act ing under Tho authority of Tho Dominion government is now on its Way to a re serve of land on Tho West Shore of Lake Winnipeg immediately to Tho North of Manitoba and extending for a distance of about fifty Miles to Little Grindstone Point to had news during Echo sum Mer of an icelandic deputation under charge of or Taylor visiting that part of Tho North West and to have reason to believe that this colonization is Tho result of Tho report it gave. The land selected is reported exceedingly Rich and furnishes at the same time both Wood and pasture while the Lake abounds in fish which Tho icelanders Are very Export in taking. The locality is reached by boats from Winnipeg but it is believed that roads will soon to opened up to connect it with Manitoba. Tho new colonists who it is said Are aided by a loan from Tho government upon Tho guarantee of the Hudson s Bay company win go to work at onco to build themselves houses for Protection from Tho Winter and Lay in at onco sup plies of fish. These colonists wore for some time at Kinmount on and a Cor respondent informs us that while of their Way to their now Homo on the upper Lake Steamboat Thoy employed themselves in making is Tho Tho party who Are said to be very expert at this kind of work. Everybody who has Road lord Dufferin s Little work will feel interest in Tho ice Landers. This Pirty of colonists to Are informed Are a fair i cod fair haired Blu Yod people of robust Constitution not afraid to work and clone in their personal habits. In religion they Are lutheran and or Taylor in the absence of one of their own pastors acts for them As minister. The first act of Tho delegation when they discovered the Beautiful land on which they arc now going to to arc informed it is very to hold a prayer iof 1875 amounted to exceeding that of 1869 by about when the Empire was. At the height of. Its Prosperity and when Alsace and Lor Raine belonged to France. The railways Are consequently do intr a business Tho Western Lino Luia improved francs a mile the i Ancs Lyons francs the East Ern francs the Southern francs. As far As Paris is concerned there Are fewer failures and Tho theatrical of an increase of francs Over those of 1859. In spite of restless politicians floods and other partial disasters there can be no doubt that France has nothing to complain of and that Sho Kas More than recovered that material welfare which is supposed to have unnerved her under the immoral and luxurious Empire.
