Or g. If. Campbell returned from he sea monday and on being a asked by a free pros reporter As to his appointment in Nee Hon the immigration depart Anent of Ifo Dominion government sai3, yes the gov eminent want to to five them a Liand in Thi immigration work and i think t shall it so and will Endeavor to do what i can to Attak up thin Groat we fun do you commence your immediately i expect to return to Ottar within a few Days to make arrangements of starting the work and shall then return to what Are the prospects for a Large Immi Gration in the Spring it is a Little too Early to speak definitely a to that As reports Are Nob yet in from of country a eats but judging from All information a hand we have every reason to look for an increased immigration from the of country Thia season. 1 refer of course to the whole of Europe As Well As Graab Britain for i think the largest increase will be from the continent from her Rainy Scandinavia and other parts of Europe. There a this in Inch about it everything possible of a really practical nature that car be done under the circumstances to induce the people to come a being done. The Farmers delegates who Ware out last fall Are already doing Good work. Their reports Are All in and printed and being distributed in great quantities throughout the whole country and thay have been writing in the old coup try prs Sec accounts of then visit to Canada and speaking it the highest berms of the country. The reports and letters and other works the de Legates cannot fail to do Good. They Are a source of. A Ferenee in their several localities to Thona who contemplate mov ing Beim frequently consulted both personally and by letter by their people. Then the government As Haq already Beon announced Are giving a Bonus to every Immi Grant who Sattley upon land which is also be ing supplemented by the railway and steam ship this ought to induce the people to come if anything would and besides this n great amount of advertising is being done in the old country. Large posters Are being put up in All Public places setting fourth the advantages of Canada a a Field Tor immigration As Well a thousands of circulars and pamphlets biting distributed broadcast Ever the whole country. These with All the letters and private work of Tho agents Over there together with what the a p. R. And m. N. W. Eco. Are doing Bee Ideal the work of the return men sent Over from Here each year ought to have a great effect upon the people and influence them for you think i heft that every tiling possible is being1 done to get the people everything ipod Waible with the vote which parliament placed at the disposal of the government. The government and especially the Hon. Or. Carling minister Fly agriculture Are Moat anxious to do everything in reason to get the right class of people to come to Canada and Settle upon cur lands and i think they will succeed. Of course the present prosperous times in the old country May retard emigration to some extent this year but am confident that with All that is being done we will Soe a Large increase next a How about immigration from Dakota and the Western states i Havn b had much time to go very fully into thai yet but i believe effective work a being done in that direction also and the indications Are in favor of a very Large influx of people from across the line. I shall however inform myself fully on this As Well a on All other matters affecting immigration to the Northwest immediately and i Helicke the government will assist in doing everything possible to make it a where will your Headquarters be jul especially during the Spring and summer while immigration is . I want to see that the people Are not Only Well received upon their arrival at the differ ent Points along the line but that they Are properly advised and assisted in settling upon their lands and that generally speaking they Are made to feel when they come Here that they Are among friends who appreciate them and who Are willing to help them in making a Start in their new Homes. I think this a More than half the Battle in this Immi Gration work. If we can give those who come Here a. Good impression of the people As Well As of the coun try and show them that we take a Hearty in Terest in their welfare the letters they win write to their friends aft Home will then be one of the Best immigration mediums we can have i propose to Fry and do this and to try and arrange a system among the towns and municipalities throughout the country by which All hands will work upon the same lines each doing his share and doing in systematically. About a Thresher. A. Taw sur important to Farmers Noil Imp Lemot Itten be con the courts. The Case of Sawyer v. Baskerville came be fore the courts yesterday. This Bill was filed by the plaintiffs who carry on business at Hamilton under the fixin name of t. Saw yer ., against the la pendants John d. Base Cervile and Joseph h. Baskerville of Dominion City.

The Thresher and engine were delivered bub the Bill alleges that done Dauts have not paid for the same and have refused promissory notes As required by the agreement and Plotinus is afterwards 10 bumped Possession thereof and subsequently sold the tame but Are willing to give defend ants credit for the amount realised. Tho Bill prays that the balance claimed to be due May a declared by the court to be n charge upon the land owned by defendant that they May be ordered to pay the same and in default that the land May be sold. The defendants in their answer Adinig receiving the Thresher believing in to be in every respect such As represented by Plain tiffs Thev assert they purchased the same on the express condition that the same would perform As Good work As any other engine or separator of the same size manufactured in Cantida and the same was so warranted to them a the time of Sale bub they con tend it was far inferior and although they notified the plaintiffs they did not improve it. Defendants were unable to fulfil contracts entered by them with Farmers to do their threshing and suffered considerable loss therefrom they finally re turned the machine to the Plain Bill b agent a Dominion City. They further contend that the agreement drawn up did Coti embody a provision entered into that defendants should of allowed Tea Days trial of the Ugine and separator before the actual Purchase thereof when if it did not work satisfactorily they should be released from Tho agreement.
