It Isi a Little unseemly and not altogether Wise on their part to be forever dilating on the West s failure to recognize what la due to i the kind generous benevolent and i unselfish easterners. The West re pud i rates any obligations of this nature. It expressly denies that any claims of i this character Are Well founded. The people of the West Are British citizens totals 1228.330.41 the above figures were printed in the free press a jew weeks ago on occasion by a typographical error the amount set Down for the at Torney general for 1901 appeared also for the provincial Secretary instead of the amount 506.603.70 thus appeared twice the error being Mani fest at a glance the totals s104.009.33 Anil were rightly Given As above. It is in the Public interest that these figures from the Public accounts should be kept before the attention of Thi . So that they May be considered in connection with the revenues and expenditures for 1si02, when the Public accounts for this year Are brought taking Only the Sal Aries and expenses they show an in crease from in 1s99 to Al j.64 in 1901 and the total expenditures less bonuses from in 1s50 to in 1001. The increases for the present year re main to be seen. And Athabasca whose have not yet been tested. In a word one tenth of Manitoba wheat lands yielded More wheat than great Brit Ain one fifth As much As the two rus Sias twice As much As Sweden Den Mark Holland and Belgium together a third More than Austria a fifth More than Roumania in Manitoba Are acres. Only Are cultivated for All purposes farming and ranching consist of lakes sloughs and barrens Are in Timber. Of the acres left Are known to be equal Multi i in Fertility to the now Multi and therefore free men. They Koiv rated Grant met Nioba one of her a per Felly Well that the future great Ness o Canada rests with them. They do not require any lessons in Patriot ism from or. Tarte and the other Eastern agitators who Are determined to raise the Tariff and Are annoyed beyond measure at the Resolute unyielding opposition that is being made to this movement by the West. On i the contrary it is these latter gentle i men who Are in need of a lesson and we predict that the West will do its share in teaching it to them in the near future.

The position of the West is a perfectly Plain one. It Tranton the great est possible measure of Dom to buy and to sell to ship and to import. Other things being equal it will give the preference to the East every time. That this is True the account books of. Every Eastern manufacturer show. Cut off. The Western business from them and s. Good Many Eastern factories would display smokeless chimneys this Winter. We should like to know where Hamilton the Home of the Spectator would be if it did not get a very generous share of the custom of the West. An immense Plant for the manufacture of agricultural implements is being in stalled there at present. Where will the bulk of the machines there manufactured be sold 1 in the Northwest. What is True of Hamilton is True of every other manufacturing Centre in the East. They take practically Noth ing of the products of the West and contribute or next to nothing to the development of this Section of the country on the other hand they exist in Large part on Tho Western the Alaska Yukon Boundary. Or. F. C. Wade s article in the Cut rent Empire review on the prac tical Side of the Alaska Yukon Boundary dispute which was reprinted in full in the tree press a few Days j ago. Is a contribution no less interest ing than enlightening to the already voluminous discussion of this internal tonal difference towards which the United persists in acting the part of a sulky giant disregarding Justice and refusing to arbitrate. The list u it ii Side of the dispute has been ably presented by several distinguished Canadian jurists in support of can Ada s claim previous to the appear of or. Wade s article while there has a strikingly significant Lack rage years of bushels to the acre and this province alone will be producing twice As much wheat As Russia and. Four times As much As the article is largely made up of statistics with which the readers of the free press Are acquainted and closes with the following forecast in Manitoba and the Northwest territories Are acres. Of this acres have been homesteaded and assigned to syndicates acres Cdr Sist of water and barrens acres Are arable. Should half that arable area Ever yield As Manitoba is yielding to Day the wheat Belt of the Northwest will have become the granary of the sir kid fund Barton the australian Premier Lias reason to realize that the Eye of the whole Commonwealth was kept close upon him during his Coronation pilgrimage and he is learn ing a Good Deal that should serve to guide him in his conduct when he Ven Tures abroad again. He is being at tacked for giving a testimonial to a pushing tobacconist who submitted a Box of cigars to him at the hotel Cecil in London. The Premier s Pri vate Secretary civilly acknowledged the receipt o the cigars adding that sir Edmund has smoked one or two already and thinks their Quality very Good great advertising use menial and some of the australian papers want to know what the Prem Ier got out of and How was it that if he were kept so Busy in Lon Don he found time for of relaxation Jetters to the set it or. Correspondents who adopt a pen name should enclose their name and address for the information of the editor Only. Letters containing personalities or at tacks on private character will not be published. Of inv argument in support of the United states claim. Or. Wade made of this valuable Only lightly upon the discus Sion of the treaties and the Diplo Matic that have passed and himself mainly to showing the baneful effects of settled Boundary Ine upon the Trade and the administration of criminal Law generally Rupini the and development of the territory affected. Lie writes a Sicily and with forthright from a full knowledge of the actual conditions which makes his article vastly More interesting to the general Reader than a purely Legal argument. The practical Side of the matter moreover As or. Wade shows is Likely to be the one that will Lead to the dispute being settled since the existing arrangements having Tho i or acc to of rapidly diminishing the unit Ert states Trade with the Yukon with the result that the squatter sovereignty tide water towns of Skagway and Dyea Over which the United j states is mown Are suffering. As to the utterly unjustifiable Char Acter of the of the United suites to submit the Boundary dispute to arbitration nothing could he plainer. The treaty by which Russia ceded Alaska to the United states signed in and ratified by in Jesus. Canada became a party to the dispute on the cloth of 1.st1. And immediately Lack of fuel. To the editor of the free press. Looking Over my dictionary i find that Coal is described As solid Black substance used for fuel dug out of the in another work before the we Are informed that Coal supplies our manufactories furnaces which is the fundamental agent of our productive and economic industries that Coal warms our what does the. Of it do that s the burning question of the hour in Manitoba. It is a mathematical problem Tiu Long can we exist without fuel in a climate of Arctic rigor so Long As our Tenet posts last we can hang on. After that certainly not. Deluge fur that would imply warm weather but in contradistinction we should have glacial period in Manitoba and be july. Ism. And almost immediately in the sume predicament As Clark began to seek settlement of the ques i Ruhseii-3 Frozen and require from this february Tion. Proposals came country in March. And in Mirich. Disputes arose As to the Boundary and Canada was found upholding its claims and again proposing a settlement. In 1s7u the Canadian government protested against the action of the United states government in treat ing certain disputed territory As american and yet refusing to take any measure to Deline the Boundary. This state of affairs continued until july. Iso when a treaty convention was j made Between the United states and great Britain for the purpose of carrying out a joint Survey and Perman ent delimitation of the Boundary line. This treaty convention is an inter National acknowledgement of an unsettled Boundary Lino Between Alaska and Canada and is a conclusive and binding admission by the United states that there were no rights As to settlements or towns located by the United states up to is in. Claimable under International Law or any alleged acquiescence of Canada. The United states have made them selves the champions of., and have declared their National Faith in the honorable rest and Justice found in International and at the Hague peace conference they pledged their nation to use their Best efforts to secure a Pacific settlement of International and joined with great Britain and other nations in affirming that in questions of a Legal nature and especially in the interpretation of International conventions arbitration is recognized by the signatory Powers As the most effective and at the same time the most equitable Means of settling disputes which diplomacy has failed to Fine sentiments these for the neigh Boring Republic to profess and Call up on the rest of the world to put into practice but she declines to abide by them herself. A forecast for the West. A deserved tribute to the memory of a Man who was a prominent figure in the life of Winnipeg in the Early Days Chat were not so very Long ago is paid in the current Century by miss laut. Formerly of the Staft of this paper the writer of the lords of the or. James w. Taylor for Many years the Uniti d states Consul in this City had unbounded Faith in the great future of Western Canada and As miss laut says and the old timers Well remember he never hesitated to give it eloquent expression. His por trait hangs in the City Hall a merited memorial of one whose name holds no inconspicuous place in Winnipeg s annals. Or. Taylor s prophecies Are made by miss the text of an article Deal ing with the manner in which those prophecies Are now beginning to be realized. After dealing at length with the movement of population from the Western states into this country miss laut continues Only one tenth of Manitoba s wheat lands is occupied and West of Mani Toba Are Assiniboia Alberta and Saskatchewan larger and equally Fertile some kind creature to thaw us out. Viv Are like a celebrated person mentioned in the old Ballad Allan a who had to faggots for Burn for neither Wood nor Coal can be procured in hardly any of the towns. Now and again a car comes in iad ened with the precious substance formed by the period. A gentleman if to flailed the Coal Fields on business la reported to have said Eliut he saw Over to Leventy trucks Laened with Coal waiting transportation and had been waiting for a Long time Yot no engines were Forth coming to take them away. In a with so As Coal and with All our enlightenment and magnificent Harvest even with Money in. Hand yet we Are denied the com Mon necessaries of fuel through the Gross mismanagement of the transportation system. The c. P. R., with an utter indifference to the wants of the country Are running their lines on the study of As great an Economy As u compatible with great profits. The great Art of the magnates of that line is to present to their shareholders a b a dividend with a modicum of expense. Possibly they have put on some new rolling Stock but nothing in keeping with the enormous expat Siroti of traffic in Manitoba from East to West from West to East. The merchants Are certainly not to blame for this disgraceful state of affairs for they Are complaining As bitterly As the Rural population. Trio remedy that i can see but too late for this season is that the government shall imperatively demand that the railway companies shall increase their rolling Stock to meet in future the exigencies of tie Cruse. If the govern proper no matter How much the pub Lic Are inconvenienced. Of any fondly imagines that the c. P. Or c. N. U. Or any other railway Down their lines solely for patriotic or philanthropic motives they deserve to Wear the order of v. C. On their the Victoria. Cross but visionary Cranks. Cordwood is re presented on the markets at tha present time by the algebraic letter x an unknown Quantity. Poplar so to Tamarac. Oak perhaps a Dollar less arid even then hardly obtainable. The soft Coal on which All we Farmers rely is higher this year then 54.50 per ton. In Justice we May say that the c. N. Have some excuse for their shortage of. Cars As they Are Only entering on their career of railway Hood. So we can Only bid them mend their and sin no Manitoba Farmer. West dec. 22. Archbishop Ireland to the editor of the free press.

It pervades protestants As Well As catholics and runs through Europe As Well As am Erica. The respect and affection for John Ireland among the people of Minnesota is founded not Only upon his High standing a a priest and pastor but upon his Sterling qualities As a. Citizen. He has been a resident Here for a period covering More than an Ordinary human life time. In the crucial Days of the civil War he went to the front As chaplain of a Minnesota regiment and he stands in the annals that War among the famous chaplains who were ready at All times not. Only to administer spiritual Consolation but to administer to the wounded in the storm of Battle and to Bear a hand with a Musket if necessary to defend a position. In civil life he has always been a grand citizen Active in promoting All worthy Enterprise and in labor ing for moral and economic reforms outside As Well As inside of Church lines. In the nation at Large and abroad he commands respect for his great ability. As an orator in the Pul pit and out of it. Lie has few if any superiors. When he was in Europe d few years ago it was found that he could deliver addresses As fluently and persuasively in French As in the eng Lish Tongue and there was no Man however famed whose utterances commanded More instant or profound attention.
