Canada exercises jurisdiction in her Arctic archipelago and is ewdeavoring to ameliorate the conditions under which her Eskimo citizens are diving. Patrols gent out by the Dominion Gov- ernment are administering justice and investigating conditions in that vast area. Every precaution is being taken to conserve the wild life of Arctic Can- ada and the operations of the white trapper and trader are heing so limited as to avoid undue depletion of the fur- bearers and game animals. In pursuance of this policy Major L. T. Burwash, exploratory engineer of the North West Territories and Yukon Branch, Department of the Interior, has already begun his patrol through the southern {islands of our Aretic archipelago from the mouth of the Mackenzie river to Hudson bay. He will travel through this country for the next two years, living with the natives and investigating conditions on the ground. %y Major Burwash left Ottawa on 2nd July en route for Fort Smith, North: west Territories; and from there pro ceeded by steamer to the mouth of the From -Aklavik he will travel eastward along the coast, visiting the different settlements and making - surveys, observations, "and other investigations. Major Burwash hopes to winter in King William island where there fs a considerable band of his journey, and expects to come out either at Repulse bay st the north end of Hudson bay or else to cross country to Wager bay and Chesterfield inlet. During his trip Major Burwash, in addition to conducting s&cientific' and economic. investigations, including a survey of the wild life and other natur- al resources of the land and sea along the Arctic coast, will take a census 'of the Eskimos versed. Observations for magnetic de- clination will be made by Msjor Bur- wash for the Topographical Survey, and much other valuable information ts expected ito result from the trip. Major Burwash will travel alone and will secure what assistance he requires by engaging natives from each of the different tribes He visits. It Is be- leved that it will be much easier for one man to pass through the country than if the investigation were made by a party of considerable size. And He's Keyed Up.
