A Strong refutation of the rumours that were last fall when Many settlers from great Britain on their i Way Home declared they would never set foot on.

The first train Load which arrived in Winni Peg had a Large proportion of return ing settlers men who recognized the great opportunities which Canada had to offer the refutation is All the More Strong from the fact that Trade conditions a the Mother country have been exceptionally Good for the past few years and in this respect their return aug Urs Well for the Dominion.
