George 1" Graham Wis the Pitcher, | One sces fuch gatherings in the great and growing West. To the { eesterner they are sirange--theilling, | but un-undersiandable; The "oldest ii bitant,' who was on the spot | when. the "city" was. laid out, just four and a half years before, explain- ed that the audience was composed | of no less than seven nationalities, a conglomerate collection from the Old | World and the New. They had turned j out, three thousand strong, to greet j the then Primé Minister of Canada (on his visit to the prairies in the summer of 3910. But their attention for the time being wag focussed upon an earnest young hut: Lp summoned { froin the background by his 'leader There were men, women and ehil- I dren, of different races of diversified | ideals, of individual aims and aspira- {tions. They had eome together--the +} large majority of them--out of curios. ity. It was a mammoth meeting, tax- ing the capacity of the typical prairie 'rink, but it was impersonal, segre- gated, chaotic. Then the y man spoke. He was not an orator, but he had a message His greeting was di- rect, personal, sympathetic. And when he sat down the gathering was unified and enthusiastic. It was one and won. Just behind the press table sat a hoary-headed stalwart who had glued [his right hand to his ear as a sound- ing funnel throughout the address. Dy about him proclaimed the Fatherland. His accent was pro- nounced. "Ach!" he exclaimed, leaning for. ward and placing his big hand on the | 8rm of a nearby newspaper man. | "Who it isa?" He was told. He nodded his head 1 decisively, "Goods, goodt," he repeat- soled. "Dat young man hass un fu. ture!" The Young Man with the Future was Mr. Fred. F. Pardee, K.C., mem- ber for West Lambton and chief whipe of the Liberal party in the House of Commons. He is 44 years of age-- and young for his years. He has all the vigor and enthusiasm of youth, tempered with the wisdom of an early and successful Parliamentary career. He was born for politics, for his fath- er was the: late Hon. T. B. Pardee, Minister of Crown Lands in the hey- day of the Mowat administration in Ontario. But Fred. is not the son of his fathersin the sense so frequently evidenced in public life. He stands on his own feet, He has come to the front on his own merit. He has made good on his own account. Yet the chiet whip is no exponent of 'the all-work-and-no-play doctrine. No man is more ready to enjoy to the full his hours of relaxation and re- { creation, Omce the task of the hour is off his ds he is ready to parti. cipate in the lighter things of econ- genial camaraderie. And he is al- ways ready for a turn in healthy out door sport, and still looks the athlete he was in his college days. If was he it may be remembered, who captained { the Parliamentary team that took the { measure of the mewspaper men in | that memarable baseball contest on the prairie diamond at Melville dur- {ing the tour to which reference has | been made. Mr, Pardee marshalled a ! phenomenal team, including one Pro- | vincial Prime Minister, one member j of the Dominion Cabinet, one ex- | Speaker of the Western Legislature, one Senator and several members of the Housa of Commons. He layed first base himself--and played it with- out a glove! The press still charges its unexpected defeat to the support tendered the Parliamentary pitcher, Hon. Geo. P. Graham, by the man on first base, who "pulled down the high ones" with one hand, and "scooped up the grounders" with the clean-cut perfection of a connoisseur. More. over, the mewspaper fielders learned to "move away back' when the chief whip came to bat.--H, W. Anderson in The Canadian Courier. Would Look Queer. A couple of years ago, when Gus A. Forbes was paying a visit to his peo- ple in Calgary, Alta, he played a short seafon at the request of his friend, Ernest Willis, then manager of the Lyric Theatre, with the Em. press Stock Company, of Vancouver, who were filling a summer engagement at that house. Among other plays produced was The Charity Ball. One matinee, just before ringing up, it was discovered that the lady who pla the Mother was jot at the fhestre, and Ous wens to Billy Bartgrd, the director" 0 company, t¢ ask him what he was going to de. "I don't know," said Billy. "Oh, we'll get Mrs. -- to go and read the part. What are: you at?' "Nothing," said Gus, "only won't it look rat fanny to have some one reading the part of a blind woman?"

What 'towns exist to-day in On. fario's great hinterland are the result of developments that have taken place in the exploitation of her mine or forest wealth. The first thing we ask of a pew town in the north is: What mines are there or what pulpwood treasure? But the popular conception of that largely-unknown. region is changing. People tre beginning to realize that the north has a bigger boast, & grandef" heritage of which te send despatthes to the city papers, and, after all, & more alluring life to offer the restless from other lands. We are beginning to hear of towns be- ing built upor a faith in the resources of the top six inches of the soil, which the new settlers believe pos- sesses more gold than thé whole in- terior of the earth. The latest story comes from Hearst, an ambitious collection of huts that is moving on fast in a faith pinned ta the Clay Beit. The prospector may do much for Hearst, writes a young railway em- ploye in the new burg, 130 miles west of Cochrane, on the N. T Ry., who seems to have grasped the right view of things--there are rumors of hidden treasures. But, whatever the railroads or prospectors may do for her, Hearst's réal future lies in the miles of agricultural land stretching out on every side, even to the Bay. Facts already established about the soil be- yond Oritario's present farming dis- trict should make the inhabitants of that embryo town truly optimistic. There are no hills or rocks within a reaching radius of Hearst and mus- kegs are practically unknown. The surface soil is rich in its centuries of forest mould, and below the humus is' a valuable subsoil of clay. Hearst was surveyed last September, but it has not long borne the name. The Provincial Government had decid- ed on establishing a townsite there and 'had named it Mattawishquia when the National Transcontinental Commission chose the spot for a divi- sion point, being located some one hundred and thirty miles west of Cochrane. The commission called it Grant, in honor of the railway's chief engineer, but it was not to be known as that long, for immediately the Postoffice Department objected, on the ground that there is already a Grant in Ontario. 'A third christening was ordered ,and the name of the new Provincial Minister of Lands, Forests and Mines was given to the infant town of scarcely two months. While it is the Naticnal Transcon- tinental Railway 'that is to make Hearst knewn, and the agricultural wealth of the clay belt, settlers are confident, will sometime make her great, there are posdibilities hiddem in the rocks and forest that the little town cannot afford to overlook. Ru- mrs have been current of the discov. eries of silver deposits, .and there may be other valuable minerals awaiting but capital and enterprise to draw them to the world's market. Besides, the choice timber lands stretching for miles on all sidés aré a wealth in themselves, and in them are pulp areas and rivers affording opportani- ties for power. Hearst hopes to attract people by her climate, which, while it permits of occasional drops in the mercury to 60 degrees below zero in winter, has a beautiful summer of long days and cool evenings. The winter is also a pleasant season, for, although it gets very cold, there are fewer stormy or otherwise disagreeable days than parts of older Ontario experience. Good Advice. Sir Edward Clouston, like many other Canadians, has learned that nothing ties up a railway like a driv- ing snowstorm. A few years ago in February, the Ontario railways were almost completely tied up with one of the worst blizzards experienced in years. At that time Sir Edward had an important engagement in Ottawa, and although the weather prophets forecasted bad snowstorms, he decid- ed to make the trip by the C.P.R., says The Toronto Star Weekly. The train crew had a desperate fight to make headway from the time they left Montreal, and finally, when three miles from one of the smallest sta- tions on the line, the engine went Sir Edward and Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, the president of the C.P.R., were warm friends, so when Bir Edward was informed that there was 10 be & serious delay he resolved to telegraph Sir mas. A brakeman started out to make his way three miles to the telegraph of- fice, and Bir Edward gave him a rsonal message to the O.P.R. presi- pry He also insisted that the brake- man wait for a reply, His message was as follows: "Bir Thomas Shaughnessy, "President C.P.R.: . "Am tied up in a snowstorm in one of your trains. Three miles from nowhere. What would you advise? "Clouston," FRIDAY, JUNE PE NG THE CAND. New Brunswick Has Launched on a Striking Campaign. New Brunswick has decided to keep young farmers in the east and te en- courage immigrants of an agricultural turn to settle on lands as yet unfarm- ed in that opr ios, says Harold Brown in eo Canadian Courier. Spending $12,000,000 to make a nation- al Harbor of Courtenay Bay does not | epitomize the progressive policy of modern New Brunswick. There, as in land is 'the thing. New Brunswick is still a provineé of large unclaimed areas of arable land. While the mad rush for free land is still on in the valleys of the Baskatchewan; while the trek to the free lands of the Peace River is going ahead of the railroads; while large areas of good land are be- ing settled upon in British Columbia; and while Ontario & still pushing back the unsettled boundaries of its huge clay belt = the Maritime Pro- vinces are beginning to realize that it is better economics for the ehst and better for the immigrant, to settle lend which has lain idle along the Atlantic since the Micmaes first hunt. ed the moose in Nova Scotia. New Brunswick's forward policy on the land question began in a vigor. ous protest against the continual exo- dus of thousands of her best young agriculturists to the west; and against the almost more serious efflux of pro- ductive population to the eastern States. Newspapers and Boards of Trade, merchants and manufacturers and people in general made the pro- test something of an-organized howl. The howl became an intention. The intention tock form in legislation, The bill to. encourage the Settlement of Farm Lands was the result, Precedent to the bill, however, and the direct cause of it, was a somewhat remarkable paper read at the recent Immigration Conference in Frederic. fon, by Charles H. Mcintyre. Mr. elntyre was born on a stone-knob farm in New Brunswick. While still a youth he managed to get an educa- tion as far as graduating from the University of New Brunswick at Fredericton; after which he studied at Harvard, took a course in American law and set up a legal office in Boston, where he is now & prominent citizen, a past president of the Boston Cana. dian Club, and as much interested in his native province as though he were still living in Fredericton, "Speaking generally," he said, "the average young man without funds cannot purchase a farm and from ite proceeds redeem himself from debt be- fore he is worn out." Mr. McIntyre cited the examples of several other countries in dealing with the maniess land question: England, Germany, Ireland, Brazil, Australis, New Zealand. The basic principle in all these somewhat varying methods of getting idle people on to idle land, of building homes for working. men was--some form of state assist. state took the form of loans to farm. ers. Mr. McIntyre outlined three me- thods of Government sid to potential farmer, and he recommended the ap- pointment of a land settlement com. mission to be the age by which apy one of the three methods should be carried out, The first-mentioned was the case of the fund in Govergment savings banks on provincial credit as advance loans to farmers. The second was pro- vincial debentures. The third was bonds issued by the Land Settlement Commission itself, under provincial Lguarantee, islature, born of this idea set forth by Mr. Melntyre, makes the idea into a fact. It provides for the creation of a "Farm Settlement Board" of three commissioners, one of whom must be the Provincial Superintendent of Im- migration, who becomes the secretary of the board. New Western Senater, ! Dr. F. L. Schaffner, M.P., for Sou. ris, Man., it is announced. will be the new Senator for one of the Sena- torial districts created by the exten- sion of the Manitoba boundary under 'the bill of last session. He is one of the sturdy political stalwarts of the Government benches who during the dreary days of opposition won his re ward by service of a faithful and ef- fective kind and his translation to the Upper House is now said to be cer- tain. Dr. Schaffner is another Mari- time Province boy who has made good and has proven thai the provinces down by the sea can produce plenty of brainy men as well as fish. He comes of German and English parent. age and was born in 1856 at Williams Town South, Annapolis County, and was educated at Acadia College, N.S., and Trinity College, Toronto, where he took his degree in medicine and surgery. He also took post-graduate courses in New York and Chicago and after moving to Manitoba he made rapid success in his profession and is now health officer for Morton and Boasevin, Manitoba, and also a member of the Board of Health for the prairie province.
