Hill Said--There is No Other Place For People to = Than to Canadian North-West, Tis is the way The Chicago [I'ri- bune looks on Canada's immigration problem: "Don't be afraid you can't get peo- ple," said Jamed J. Hill, encourag- ingly, to his Canadian hosts the other day. "There is no other place on the American continent where they can go." That was drawing. it a little strong, consideting the hun- dreds of thousands of men and. wo- men who streem into' this country yearly and stay here. There are many Canadians who think this the only place on the American contihent they can go to. As Mr. Hill said, about one out of every five persons born in the Dominion emigrates to the United States But Mr. Hill says they are going back to the land of their birth--that the land seckers from the Western Strtes who are settling on the virgin Canadian wheat lands are "really former Canadians" who will be all the more useful to the Dominion 'be- cause they hawe been educated along American lines. This hardly squares with the facts. Of the English-speaking Canadians who eome here, few wke to a farming life. They gb irto stores, banks and the professions.

It is interesting to note how Hon. G. P. Graham, ope of the shrewdest and most efficient members of the { rier Cabinet, first got his start in At school he was a diligent pupil nd excelled in English composition. He wes a rural pedagogue for a year, butMinding the life too slow, gave it up and entered a general store in the village of Iroquois. There he spent months behind the counter pareclling sugar, butter, cotton, shirts and overalls. One day his father, the late Rev. W. H. Greham, 'who was then a Methodist minister! stationed in the neighboring town of Morrisburg, drove to Iroquois and called his son to the front of the shop. "George," he said, "do you know whut I have done? 1 have bought out The Morrisburg Herald for you and 1 want you to take hold and run is." "Thank you, father," answered the youth. "I will do my best to make a success of the paper." The plant was out of date and the pluce generally hors de combat. His father had made only a small pay. down, but the young man set o workswith determination and ener- gy, und things began to move. In a w years, the 'debt was cleared off uri the property grectly improved. The juvenile roprietor has a taste for public life and first entered upon his successful career as a. public man by becoming .a member of the village council. He discharged those duties so well that afterwards advancement was easy and rapid. As Told by Col. Clarke. 1 Col. Hugh Clarke, the hurporist 'of the Ontario Legislature and editor of The Kincardine Review, relates an amusing incident, "brought to his BO neat smemory by the recent big fire at the Patiament Buildings in Toronto. He ree.lls the faet thet the handsome pile in Queen's Park was ereeted while the Hon. C. F. Fraser was Min- ister of Public Works in the Liberal Government then in power. Col, Clarke, being a Conservative, takes wome pleasure in noting that while the. work was cheaply enough done, the building has proved itself to be » veritable fire-trap. Mr. Fras- er, observes: the colonel, was extreme- 1; jealous of his asuthority, and per- mitted no one to interfere with him I the adoiinistrition of his depart- ment. When it come to erceting the new home of the Legislature, he in- sisted on seeing the job through with- ut any advice from his coileagues. Intlead, he resented hints' even from the Premier himself. 1i{ chanced that Mr. Fraser died in the building. Next morning, according to Col Clarke, when the 'late Hon. A. 8.

His Listener Was Not Interested But : Wife Would Be. The Canadian poet, Mr. Arthur Stringer, was recently asked to deliver an address before the Canadian Club. of London, Ont., one of the most flout- ishing of these luncheon organiza- tions which have sp up through- out the léngth and breadth of Canada during the past six or seven years. Mr. Btringer chose for his subject a theme not commonly discussed in such organizations, which are made up, as a rule, of hard-headed young business men with a pénchant for practical themes. The title of his ad- dress was "The Making of a Poet" and the choice of his subject was a 'happy one in the case of Mr String er, for he is a poet in the minor key, ard © very good one at that. It was a much happier choice, for igstance, than his paper before the Internation- al Council of Women, when his theme was "The Making of a Newspaper," or something like that. Mr. Stringer has worked at both callings, but he knows a great deal more about poetry than he does about newspaper work. His success in deal- ing with the creative forces of the man born a child of the Muses was correspondingly greater, and the, members of the London Canadian Club were highly pleased. 'In itself the choice of such a theme was flat- tering. It was a clear intimation that Mr. 'Stringer regarded his old friends in London as capable of cherishing some ideals beyond those of business and politics of the pig's-feet and beer variety. His remarks were listened to with wrapt attention and something approaching reverence. When he eon cluded, there was a ringing salvo of applause, and as the assemblage broke up the members vied with each other in coming forward to shake hands with him. One of the com- mittee men was especially effusive. Gripping Mr. Stringer by the hand, he sua: "I want to thank you very much for your address. Of course, I didn't un- derstand everything you said, but you know my wife takes an interest in that sort of rot." TRADE IN SIBERIA, Canada Seems to Have an Excellent Market In Viadivostock, In a recent issue of The Journal of the Canadian Bankers' Association, there appeared an article by Mr. Allen Lethbridge on the market which Siberia offers for Canadian menu- factured goods. With regard to the possibilities for trade, Mr. Lethbridge has this to say: _ "Vladivostock, the harbor of Si- beria, is situated approximately at the same distance from Vancouver as i= Yokohama, and is open to naviga- tion at all times of the year. Canada should 'therefore be in a position to supply, easily and economically, a great proportion of imported goods, as at present these must either travel from Moscow by a single line of rail way 63500 miles long, obviously ut times causing terrible congestion of traffic; or must make the long sea voyage via the SueZ Canal and Bing- apore, occupying over two months. "Alreary Canadian agricultural imn- plements are favorably known in Western Siberia, where they are in successful competition with both the German and American makes, The International Harvester Co. of Chica- go are opening a branch at Vladivos- tock, thus showing that they are alive to the possibilities of the situation, and intend making a bid to capture the market. Owing to the fact that this corporation are willing to grant more extensive credit facilities than the Canadian firms, it is probable that they may succeed. Canadian companies would do well to corefully consider this question of eredit, as it must- prove the keynote of success. The demand for agricultural machin- GC, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1900 His New Gavel !s a Unique and In teresting Piece of Furniture. Everyone who has ever come in contact with the genial presence of 'Mr. George T. Bell, assistant passen- ger traffic manager of the Grand Trunk Railway, will be pleased to hear the story of the closing incident of the fifty-fourth annual convention of the American a Assteiation of General assenger ai icket recently held at Toledo, Ohio. At this con- vention Mr. Bell presided, and it is interesting to note that he is the first Canadian to be elected president of the association, which is the oldest organization of railway men in the world. This faet, together with the great personal popularity of Mr. Bell with the delegates, were considera- tions which contributed to the mak- ing of the customary presentation of a gavel to the retiring president of the association an affair of more than usual interest and significance. The Grand Trunk Railwa great international road with lines in several of the New England States, is a member of a number of the jer- ritorial passenger associati there, and Jit was thought fitting tI. the New. England Passenger Association should make the presentation to Mr. Then came the problem of securing for the Canadian president a gavel which would be at once em- blematic of cordial international re- lations among railway men, sugges- tive of future as well as present trans- portation achievements, and sigmfi- cant as a personal gift. The thing was ingeniously done. The associa- tion includes representatives of rail ways and steamship lines in Canada, Mexico, and the Cnited States. So rt of the head of Mr. Bell's presen tion gavel was formed of Canadian oak, a part of the fine new steamer "Hamonic of the Nerthern Navigation Co., which is connected with the G.T.R. Blended with the oak is a bit of ebony taken from a railrpad tie once used on a line of road in Mexico. The handle was made from a piece of wood which was part of the first suc- cessful aeroplane. It was furnished by the Wright brothers, and is sug- gestive of future transportation achievements in the air. Some time ago Mr. Bell noted at a meeting of the association that in the year the organization was formed the first band of steel of the Buspension Bridge, joining Canada and the United States, was laid across the gorge at Niagara. The gavel was therefore bound together by a stfand of steel from one of the cables of this bridge; and there was embedded in it a rivet from the Victoria Tubular Bridge at Montreal, the last rivet of which was driven in 1860 by the King, then Prince of Wales. There is also on the gavel a band of silver from the Drummond mine, in memory of Dr William Henry Drummond, '"human- ity's friend," as he is fittingly refer- red to in the presentation cominit- tee's address, and a near friend also of Mr. Bell. Both gavel and case-- the latter being made from British Columbia fir and Mexican ebony-- were artistically t together by the firm of Tiffany, New York. Drifting Westward. Returns of the homesteading in the west last year indicate a total of 39,- 081 entries, covering 6,252,960. Of these homesteaders 4,038 were from On- tario. This number is exceeded only by the United States, whence came 10,622, and England 5649. The drift from Ontario to the west is creating an acute situation in the provines in regard to population. It is expected that the settlement. returns for the present year will show an improve. ment in the number of immigrants | settling in Ontario, but so far these | substitutes the who have. not squalled number of Ontario's owl sons have gone prairie-wards.

W., were sealers before thoy | were Arctic explorers, and so was their father before them. A gentle- man "now living in Toronto, who met the senior Bartlett on the Miramiehi River many years. ago, declares he was the most taciturn man alive. The pany winters he had passed in the frozen north with few save Eskimos to converse with had caused him to lose: the habit of speech, and he would sit and smoke all day and never utter a word.

Prepare Fi: Lumbaga If You Have "Newviline" Handy One Rubbing Will Cure the Pain, Thousands Use "Nerviline" The "strike" of lumbago is like a bolt of lightning--you never know when it is coming or where it is gor ing to strike. Probably the 'one cor tain thing about lumbago is the fact that it can be cured by Nerviline--the only liniment {hat penetrates deeply enough to reach the congestal chords and muscles. "Years ago I strained my back 'and suffered considerably with woeak- ness over spine," writes 4875 Darius P. Millan, a well-known . farmer, ve siding near Kingsville, "Then lum- bago attacked the weak spot, and for days at a time I would have to lie up in bed? unable to move or turn. Liniments, poultices, and hot appliea- tions failed to bring the desired re lif, and I was in despair of ever getling really "well again. I at last dedided to test "Nerviline." I got five bottles from. the drug store and had it rubbed on 'three times a day. The stifiness and pain left my ' back quickly, and: by continuing Nerviline I was completely cured of lumbago." : This is Wmilar testimony to that of nearly five thousand Canadians who have written anstinted words ot praise to the manufacturers of Nerviline.
