Having just arrived from Ontario via Duluth i am glad to find that the govern ment of Canada have at seen the Neces sity of appointing an immigration agent at that North East port. When i visited this province last year i also came by that route in company with Many others and suffered much inconvenience irom the extortion and at that Point of , but this year a great change is observable and things appear to work smoothly and Well. I myself and follow passengers who had to re main Over in Duluth waiting for the train to connect with the red River steamers feel much indebted to Tho government agent or. His kind and polite attention to Nisan seeing to our wants. In the interest of immigration to Manitoba Tho appoint ment was certainly much required and will amply repay the government. There is a Dominion immigration office on the wharf where Tho Northern transportation and col Ling Vood steamers land and the agent is easily recognised in the crowd by his uni form Cap with the Crown and . He is kept very Busy superintending Tho Transfer of baggage to the railway depot at some distance and answering All sorts of questions and generally watching the interests of All. To is also to be found at Tho departure of trains at the depot and accompanying us a portion of Tho Way on our journey. Among the crowds almost daily arriving he must have his hands full and the task of giving satisfaction to All must to a difficult one. I was informed that a considerable number of unfortunates have arrived at Duluth without any Money and want to go to Manitoba that the agent has had them eared for and through his influence with the railway officials has obtained passage for them on to Fisher s Landing no provision being made b y the government. These people would otherwise have had to remain in the states therefore to should be supplied with Tho meant of giving free passage in such unusual cases of poverty. Other immigration agents in Tho Dominion have this Power and it is certainly More necessary at Duluth As Tho Accident of loss or robbery of ticket or Money might happen to any poor family. At present Tho has to depend upon the kind liberality of Tho railway people and in a few cases at his own expense had to provide bread to parties Mecom Odato in Tho reception House which is a Fine building Well kept and a great Benefit to Tho families of our poorer immigrants who cannot afford to a boarding House. Our passage to Fisher s Landing was made very Comfort Able first class cars to All. It is to to hoped that Tho government will boo Tho great necessity of building our own railway from fort William to Winnipeg As Quick As possible and by doing so it will Nave our country thousands of dollars that Are now left in Tho United states besides a great Deal of Trou ble which arises from Tho transportation of Stock goods Etc., through american Terri tory. The Kittson Hue of steamers Are too much crowded with passengers and freight to give any degree of Comfort or accommodation. Passengers from Ontario to this coun try Are treated with great kindness and Courtesy by the captains of Tho Canadian steamers. 1 am sorry to have to say that such treatment is not dealt out to them on the Kittson line in some cases. Tho Captain of the International and one of his Dock hands who is placed in charge of the baggage Are gentlemen from whom Tho passengers receive marked attention from Fishov s to Winnipeg. John w.
