And as they were achievements 4a which bodily hardihood and per- wonal prowess largely counted, they are specially admired to-day by all Canadians. Lord Strathcona be tongs, so to epeak, to our heroic Though a Scotchman born, be is a Canadian of the Canadians. Life in Labrador. 0st notable of the officers of the i' rank who have conducted the nu 'grade in Labrador is Lord Stra and Mount Royal, the present 'of the company. Coming 0 Donald Alexander , h, a well-educated Scotch lad, felated to Peter and Cuthbert Grant, and the brothers John and James Stuart, prominent officers, whose deeds in the Northwest Company are still remembered, the future governor began his career. Young Smith on arriving at Montreal (1838) was de- spatched to Moose Factory, and for more than thirty years was in the service, in the region of Hudson's Bay and Labrador. Rising to the tatk of chief trader after fourteen years of active service, he reached in ten years more the acme of desire of every aspirant in the company, the rank of chief factor. His years on ithe coast of Labrador, at Rigoletto and its subordinate stations, were most laborous. The writer has had 4 fhe privilege from time to time of : hearing his tales, of the long journey along the frozen coast, of camping on frozen islands, without shelter of storm-stayed journeys rivaling the recitals of Ballantyne at Fort Chimo, of cold receptions by the Moravians, ha ry and of the doubtful hospitalities of both Indians and Eskimos Every statement of Cartereal, Gilbert, or abot of the inhospital hore is corroborated by this successful officer swho has lived for thirty years since feaving Labrador to fill a high place in the affairs both of Canada and the Empire." So writes Professor George Dryce E "The Remarkable History of the udson's Bay Company." . A Life of Adventure. + | W&. biography of Lord Strathcona Jwould be excellent reading for Can- 'adian youths In his old age he is ghought of as an administrator a Bnancier, a philanthropist, a man of thought, in short, rather than a man ; of action But he lived a most strenuous life, gne of adventure and exposure to all kinds of danger and hardship Only a man of great cour- x age, endurance, and resourcefulness i could have survived the conditions of existence in the continental wild- fh ae over which he so many years andered. If he chose, he could, as r Bryce hints, unfold a tale alr-breadth escapes not less mov- 'Ing than those poured by Othello in- 2o the ear of Desdemona. Riel's Second Rebellion. When Rupert's Land was transferred by the Hudson's Bay Company to the Dominion of Canada, in 1869 ford Strathcona's part in the politi- cal history of Canada began. The company gave up unwillingly the vast tract of 2,300,000 square miles, for which it received only £300,000. It did not use its influence with its late Metis subjects to reconcile them to the change of rulers. These Riel broke out in rebellion took possession of Fort Garry, now Winnipeg. To tranquilize the situ- ation the Dominion Government sent as special commissioner Donald A \ under They Smith, now Lord Strathcona He was eminently qualified by his know- a ledge of the West and of the half- ons breed character He arrived on De- : cember, 27 1869. The disorder is described in his own language The state of matters at this t was truly humiliating Upwards of fifty British subjects were confinement as politice security for per Sons or property there was none. . The leaders of the French hall breeds had doclared their purpose to use every effort for the purpose of an- mexing the territory to the United States." His negotiations with Riel were carried on with caution. The rebel leader tried to intercept Mr. Smith's commision on the way from Pembina The commissioner cbtained consent to address the people. Upwards of a thousand assembled in the open air to hear him, the temperature be- ing 20 degrees below zero. The re- sult was the election of delegates to a convention, which, however, adopted a second bill of rights, form- ed a provisional government, but out of which peace ultimately came Services in this crisis were follow- ed by work in Parliament and by la- bor in behalf of the transcontinental railway which has done so much for prisoners efforts of Donald A. h were crowned by his elevation ery has just to hand lan Portland Cement, which ling at $2 75 per barrel, and of five barrels and upward, ices will" be quoted.
