This country contains 40,000,000 acces of land and bouudless resources of miuesals, timber, natuw al gas, water power and cattle ranges. Groâ€" nard, the chief town, 200 miles from Edmonton boasts a population of 2000 though yet 110 miles from railway connection, while Fort MeMurray, Peace River Landing and Dunvegan are other coming towns. It is diffiâ€" cult to judge which of these as yet will in a decade be another Edmonton. This is the last rich undeveloped territory of our Dominion and Edâ€" monton will reap the harvest from its {ast flowing immigration.

It was built by the C. P. R. to gain entrance to Edmonton, is over 200 feet high and with terminals cost the Co., $2,500, 000. Railroad and street car tracks fill the top deck, whila a few feet below is another level for foot and wheeled traffic. P The largest Canadian hotel we have seen is the magnificent G. T. P. building. the ‘"MacDonald" now almost completed, costing $2,000,000 and situated on the brink of the Saska‘chewan, high above on the north shore. Further west on the same shore, next the high level bridge are the fine new Parliament Buildings erected at a cost of $3,000, 000. _ We took opportunity to inspect their rich and spacious interi0r, and had the priyilege here of keasing the Aiberta _ Parliament in â€" session, through the courtesy of Hon. Duncan Marshall, minister of Agricuiture, whom we met previous to opening, giving us tickets to the members‘ gallery. Hon A. G. MacKay, we also noticed in the front row, and both of them are in the front rank in the debating power of the governâ€" ment, Many old friends from South Grey are makiog good here. Wes Huut, an old Durham boy, is row partner in a wholesale hardware firm, and in his cosy home in West EKdmonton, we spent a pleasant Sunday afternoon; with him is his nephew Milton Mills of St. Catharines, also a Durham boy who recently came out. He accomâ€" panied us for a time in the city, and purposes remaining. â€" Barrister Grant who went west from Durham a couple years ago, is a partner in a busy law practice, and Miss Katbhleen Grant, who came to Rdmonton in the summer is stenographer in the office and finds western city life agreeable. Another Durhamite we had the pleasure of meeting was Shirley Mclatyre who oceupies a good position in Marshallâ€" W 11s wholesale hardware and kindly conducted us through the large wareâ€" house. Mrs, Mcintyre was out of the city during our stay, and they have recently had a few weeks visit from his parents who are now home. We also enjoyed a visit to Mr. and Mrs, Jno, A. Wilson, formerly of Dromore, who two weeks previously returned from a four montbs visit to their oid homes in Prince Edward Id. and at Dromore. In company with Mr. Wilson and his friend Mr. Angus we spent an enlightening afternoon in seeing and going through the Swift and P. Burns packing plauts. in the latter we saw the various steps taken from the time the animal is killed until it and its products is prepared in tempting shape for the market, In killing hogs they say nothing goes to waste except the squeal and the smell. As we didu‘t witness hogs being slaughtered we didn‘t hear the music, but deep down in our heect we wished they could have utilized the odor also. On another evening we attended a lecture in the University of Alberta a beautiful structure on the sout» side. A short distance east of this is the residence of A. C. Beaton an old Glenelg citizen from whom and his family we received a most friendly welcome. Mr. Bsaton regretted he had missed secing Messrs Kelly and Mcluty re of town while they were in Edmonton. _ The family are prosperâ€" ing in their adopted city, and could not be again induced to reside in Ontario, Also in South Rdmonton we blew in on A. H. Preston who is manager of a branch of the Royal Bank recently opened there, Sinceleaving Durham over three years ago Mr. Preston has been in Stettler Alta., till last June, when he was placed here. HMe is looking well and apparently has the confidence of the bank offlicials as a business builder, We could further relate facts or describe sights to Edmonton‘s adâ€" vanlage or perhaps say something to its disadvantage by referring to their rather inadequate street ear service, but will not weary our readers. We have again taken flight â€"â€" southâ€" wards for the first time and unexpectâ€" edly on the train we were first recogâ€" nized by Duncan MeKinnon of Crawâ€" ford, who with his brother Hugh of Basswood, Man., and sister Miss Kate were en route to their brother‘s in Lethbridge. They were returning from Dan McCormack‘s of Castor, Alta.. who with his sister, Miss Eliza left Bunessan this spring. They reâ€" ported Mr. McCormack is doing well, has fine buildings, 480 acres there, and a good crop. Miss MceKinnon intends returning east in December. We enjoyed their company as far as Calgary, our next place of yisit, and arriving here in balmy weather the result of the presence of a *‘ chinook " wiad, we draw the curtain this week. =P."R,.
