Consequently it requires an internal treatment, one that will restore the blood, and thereby relicve the cause of the pain. After yeers of experiment Dr, Ilam- ilton succeeded in producing a remedy that quickly cures rheumatism, gout, and all uric acid disorders. This marvellous cure has been given to the public as Dr. Hamilton's Man- drake and Butternut Pills; in cvery case they cure quickly. ' By toning the kidneys and liver, Dr. Hamilton's Pills ensure a clean, healthy body. The blood is restored to a normal healthy condition, renewed vigor is imparted to overworked or gaus, and thus the general health is built up, and no room is left for rheu- matism to crcep in. Discouraged sufferer, relief is at hand. Use Dr. Hamilton's Pills, and you will soon shake hands for good with your old enemy. Here is substantial proof : "THis is a glad day for me, writes James E.

Te the financier the above statement means i stock -exchange "boom", to v/hich a profit of over £2, 000,000 is ate tached. But to the student of colonial history it means much more. For him chapters in the story of the develop- ment of our richest colony--thé Dom- inion of Canada. Within- the next month work will be- gin in earnest on the new railway which is to join the Atlantic and Pacl- fic shores of the Dominion. Half of this railway--from - Moncton; a Néw- Brunswick port, to Winnipeg--is to be built by the Government; the other half--from Winnipeg to Port Simpson, on the Pacific--by the Grand Trunk Railway. The second half of this gi- gantic engineering, 'enterprise will pass through vast tracts of almost unex- plored virgin country. Some 2,000 miles of prairie land, in- terspersed with lakes and ponds, and heavily timbered in places With spruce and pine, will be made accessible' to settlers. The few settlers who have al- ready penetrated into the mighty soli- tudes of Assiniboia, Saskatchewan and } Alberta, describe the region as abound-, ing in mineral and agricultural wealth. The story Manitoba, with it8 mam= moth wheif fields, its thousands. of prosperous farmers, its hundreds of towns and villages, which now eover what was once wild forest and prairie land, the home of. the buffilo and the Indian, is likely to be repeated. American Speculators. \ The vast possibilities which the rail- way thus opens up have already been recognized. American land speculators are securing large blocks of land as fast as the Governmerit surveys, made in preparation for settlers, are complet- ed. The railway will not be finished for five or gix years, but it will bring with it thousands of settlers, and land "booms" like those which marked the progress of the railway system of the United States are sure to follow. Then will the speculators who are now sow- ing their seed reap their. harvest The Hudson Bay Co. has an exten- sive "Interest In all this, for, owing to a bargain it made with the Canadian Gavernment thirty-five years ago, its proprietary rights in the region now. being brought into touch with civiliza- tion are second only to those of ghe Government itself. The company was founded In 1670, a charter being granted to Prince Rupert and seventeen noblemen and gentlemen for importing into Great Britain furs and skins obtained by barter from the fndians of North America. The cor- poration was invested with the abso- lute - proprietorship of all land discov- ered or to be discovered within the entrance of the Hudson Strait. For more than a century the holders of the charter confined themselves to the coast traffic. Their troubles were many, the chief being an almost con- tinual warfare with the French, who destroyed their forts, ruined their goods and captured their ships. With the wresting of Canada by the British from the French, the exploring spirit broke out among the Hudson Bay pioneers. Parties penetrated far up the Saskatchewan River, towards the Rocky Mountains, In 1783 the North- west Fur Co. of Montreal was formed, and, after nearly foity years' competi- tion in inland tradingy with the Hudsen Bay Co., was merged into the latter in 1821 Result of a Bargain. The Hudson Bay Co. now ruled prac- tically the whole of North America. In 1870, however, it made a bargain with the Canadian Government, and to this bargain is due the fact that its shares to-day stand at 700 per cent. premium. The company's territorial rights were gold to the Government for £300,000 in cash, the right to select a block of land adjoining each of its stations, and the right for fifty years from 1870 to "claim in any township or district with- in the fertile belt in which land is set out for settlement grants of land not exceeding one-twentieth part of the land so set out." The "fertile belt" is the stretch of country through, the northern portion of which, stretching from Winnipeg to the Rocky Mountains, is bounded on the south by the United States bound- ary. Up to March 1904, about 3,997,- 000 acres, or one-twentieth of the total land laid out for settlement, which reaches from Winnipeg to Edmonton, a town- in Alberta, had been allotted to the company.

Free mantle said he felt that the coun trv's position in the future would not be so strong as it was now, - The admiral felt that Great Britain had been too hasty in the rejection of cruisers.

Possibly The Samie speculators, who, for months past, have been purchasing land in Northwest Canada, are seeking to secure control of the company which posgesses s0 large an interest in the sphere of thelr operations.

Speaking at the Toronto Canadian Club luncheon recently on "The In- dians' in Canada," Mr. Frank Pedley, of the Department of Indian Affairs, Ottawa, said that at the rounding out of Confederation there was an Indian population of 80,000. distributed from the Atlantic to the Pacific, comprising over thirty different tribes. There was a general impression that the Indians were a dying race, but the records of the Departmenf did not bear out that view, as the present Bopulation was about 108,000, there being . 25,000 in British Columbia, 21,000 in "Ontario, 17,000 in the Northwest Territories, 11,« 000 in Quebec. The rights of the In- dian to his land were absolutely safe- guarded by the Indian Act, and not a foot could be sold without permission of the t. He spoke of the Indian title to the land, which was re- cognized by the French and English By treaties, by annuities and by insti- tuting reserves the title has been -ex- tinguished over most of Canada. Un- gava Mackenzie, Keewatin and the Yukon are exceptions. Prior to con- federation - the Provinces or the Im- pefial Government dealt with the In- dians. Now their welfare rests entire- ly with the Dominion Government. The impression also existed that the In- dians were mostly. giveii to hunting and fishing, Hut as & fact thelr occu= pations were very much varied, and were determined largely by lecal gon* ditions, - In Bastern Canada they were manufacturers of snowshoes, mocca- sins, baskets, etc, whilst in the settled portions of"©ntario they were voting themselves to pursuits somewh@t sim- flar to the white men. In British Col- umbia they werk In the orchard, In canneries, as well as manufacture cer- tain articles. 2 Education Policy, In. addition to the industrial pur- suits, sald Mr, Pedley, a policy lead- ing to the education of the Indians had been nutrsued, and there were to-day 228° day schools distributed over the Dominion, 71 of which were in Ontario, 48 in Manitoba, and 383 in the North- west Territories. The schools were modelled on a system adopted by the Provincial Department of Education for rural schools. In addition to the day schools, the Department had sub- sidized 46 boarding wchools carried on under the auspices of different religious | dehominations, where in addition to the secular side, religious instruction | was given, housekeaplng for girls and, the rudiments of agrieuiture for. boys.

Clifford Sifton, Irish by de scent, was born in (he township of London, Ont, on March 10, 1861, the son of John W. Bifton, formerly speak- er of the Manitoba Legislative Assem« bly, and. his wife, Catharine Watkins, Bducated at .the high school of. Lon= don; at the Boys' College, Dundas, and Vigtoria University, Cobourg, he grade uated B. A. and Prince of Wales medal- ist, in 1880, and was called to the Manitoba bar in 1882. Removing from Winnipeg te Brandon, where he coms- menced the practice of his profession, he hecame city solicitor and solicitor to the Western Judicial 'Board, and in 1895 was created Queen's. counsel by Lord Abérdeen, In 1888 he entered the Manitoba Leg~ islative Assembly as member for North Brandon, and joined the Green- way administration on May 14, 1881, as Attorney-General and Minister of Education. During. his tenure of ofs fice he codified the law relating to elvil procedure in Manitoba and conducted the negotiations with the Dominion Government on the' Manitoba school question. He was one of the represen- tatives of the Province at the Ottawa Reform convention of June, 1883, being elected a vice-chairman, acted as Pre- { mier during Mr, Greenway's fliness in 1895, and in June of the latter year in- troduced In the Legislature the reso- lution refusing to carry out the Dom- inion Government's order of council for the restoration of separate school prive time February, 1896, he introduced the re- solutions protesting against the passage of Parliament of the Manitoba reme- dial bill and In March was appointed a commissioner to meet in 'conference with the Dotfilnion delegates to dicuss the school question, On November 17, 1886, Mr. Sifton retired from the Manitoba Government and entered Sir Wilfrid Laurler's ad- ministration as Minister of -the Inter for and Superintendent General of In- dian affairs. In the same month he was returned for: Brandon by acclamation on the vacation of the seat by Dalton McCarthy and In thé autumn of 1897 personally inspected the various inlets to the Yukon region. On his return Mr. 'Sifton visited Washington and ne~ gotiated the arrangement made with the United States Government for the freer passage of Canadian goods into the Yukon. He acted as agent of the British Government before the Alaska 1 Boundiry fribunalin 1903 and through out his official career has devoted spe elal attention fo increasing immigration to Canada. Mr. Bifton was re-elected member for Brandon in 1900 and again ut the last Dominion elections, He Is & vice-president of the Dominion Edu- uatienal Association and a member of the Methodist Church.
