SHARP Government Wished to Resist Inroads ! of Traders From (I. S. Maj. oGen. s. B. Steele, in his re. 3 eently issued Reminiscences. outlines ‘ the reasons for the formation of the Northwest Mounted Police as being not only fear of Indian uprisings, but more because of the inroads of Amer-' ican fur traders from the Western I States. who were debauching the Ctnadian Indians with whiskey. In fact. the first “march” 01' the! N.W.M.P. in 1874-5. a march that extended from Fort Garry to the‘ Rockies. was designed to clean up; by raids the palisaded camps Of these traders. | “Between Buffalo Lake and the Hand Hills vast numbers of buflalo covered the country. When a white man went out for a supply of fresh meat he usually killed enough to pro- vision a whole settlement or a regi- ment of Soldiers. The most success- ful of the half-breed hunters was Abraham Salois, who killed 600 but- falo in one year. In one run, thirty- seven fell to his rifle.” WHY ENLWM. . WAS FORMED. Gen. Steele, as head of a barracks in the N ..W M. P. had the jurisdiction of a magistrate. and dealings with the Indians, 1n alictting them land reserves, paying pensions, and giving them messages from the Queen Moth- er, Queen Victoria, had their humor- ous side. For instance, in signing treaties with the Indians, omcial gar- ments «were presented to them. The uniform of the chiefs was a scarlet frock coat braided with gold lace, and a tap hat of felt with a gold band. The head men were giv- ,, 1‘ 1, en blue frock coats with gold lace, with hats similar to the chiefs. The medals were very large, with the Queen’s head and suitable inscrip- tion thereon. '-v- ‘â€"'_v__ The following is interesting as the origin of Moose Jaw: “We were at Moose Jaw Creek, or as they called it, Moose Jaw Bone, the Cree name being ‘The place where the white man mended the cart with the moose jawbone.’ The reason was that the Earl of Mulgrave, then ‘an officer in the Guards, who was on a buffalo hunting trip, spliced the bro- ken felloe of one of his carts with a moose jawbone." In 1882, on a trip east, Gen. Steele passed through Winnipeg dur- ing the land boom of that year. ,,‘\2_.. ‘A Uâ€"c -__ _ “In Winnipeg, lots were selling at, for that time, fabulous prices, and any quarter-section in Manitoba, if subdivided into town lots would reaâ€" lize a'handsome fortune for the own- er. People were ready to buy any- thing. The hotels did a roaring trade, and the bars made profits of hundreds of dollars a day.” Q ““55“. V“u vâ€" . Gen. Steele headed a party of N.W.M.P. and scouts in pursuit of the Indians who perpetrated the Frog Lake massacre. His story of the Riel Rebellion of 1885, of the Klondyke rush and of his adventures in Africa are interesting documents. Under the caption “Highland Mili- ! tary News,” the Oban Times of March 20th publishes the following: “The peOple of Islay have a particular , interest in the 48th Canadian High- landers, since its popular comman- der, Col. J. A. Currie, M.P., claims a close ancestral connection with the ‘green, grassy isle.’ This gallant regi- ment was organized in 1891, when Col. Currie, as a thorough going Gaelic Highlander, proved a tower of strength in the then somewhat difli- cult task of procuring from the Gov- l ernment the extra grant required" to' equip the corps. Since those days Highland sentiment has extended much further west than Toronto. ' “In a letter to Mr. Neil Mackin- non, a native of Colonsay, and a former color-sergeant, now in Wales, Col. Currie states that when the war broke out” there were 900 men on the strength and they all wanted to go to the front. Further recruiting was easy, and, leaving a large contingent at home, over 1,000 rank and file and officers were brought to this country. “The fine physique of the regiment may be judged from the fact that no fewer than 800 men measure five feet eight inches in height. In 1913 the 48th carried off the King’s Prize for shooting at Bisley and had four men in the twenty from Can-dun “The service uniform and equip- ment of the first battalion cost $35,- 000 and this was provided voluntar- ily, without drawing from the Cana- dian Government. A plant for treating molybdenite ores has been established at Sydney, C.B., and a first shipment of 100 tons of metal is to be sent to England soon. The principal supplies of molybde- num have heretofore come from German sources and the cutting off of these supplies has caused consid- erable emba1"'assinent in England. The metal is used in the manufacture of special steels, having the quality of increasing greatly the tensile strength of steel when added to it. The mining of molybdenite is be- coming an imrortant industry. Molyb- denite is used for a variety of pur- poses, but its principal value is in the manufacture of shafts, guns, and boilers. \ Labor Men at Front. Returns to the Dominion Labor Department show that up to the first of the year 3,498 men belonging to local trade unions throughout Canada had enlisted for war service, and, in addition, 417 British' army reserv- ists, making a total of 3, 915 Cana- dian trade unionists. The building trades were first with 1,249 men; railway brotherhoods next with 49. Toronto headed the list with 579, Winnipeg 402, Montreal 289, Van- couver 222. Cost of Living Rises. The cost of living. in Canada con- tinues to rise. The Labor Department index number of wholesale prices rose nearly two points during March as compared with February. The in- dex number in; March was eight points higher than in March, 1914. ' Scots Inierestcd In 48th.
