here, and this accounts very often for the absence of the agreeable in nature. Back a few miles on either side are good ranch- ing grounds, stretches of cool country and more or less timber. Indeed our strained eyes often detect in the distance the smoke- wreathed chimney of some rancher’s castle which seems to speak feelingly of our own quiet home. As the shadows of even- ing failand flood the soul with tender memories :—Et jam summa procul villarum culmina fumant Majoresque cadunt altis de montibus wnbrae,

Going west we had. celebrated the Glorious Fourth and had had speech- making and what not. A _ real-know-it-all New Englander was the centre-piece in this patriotic symposium. He had given us taffy, to use @ boy’s phrase, on Dominion Day, coming around Thunder Bay, and with the tariff so favorabie to the con- sumer, it wasn’t likely we were going to be mean with our sugar on the Fourth. The speeches were then highly American in

their spread eagleism. So high soared some of our delegates, indeed, on the wings of eloquence that even the indu'gent sentiment of the company

was outraged, and a precess in law for high treason followed. The culprit was, of course, a grit, and not ashamed of his disloyalty. Defended by a grit Q. C. from Cape Breton, and favored by a most hberal interpretation of the law by the bench heroes, he was acquitted by a jury of his peers, dispite the able and admirable address of the counsel for the crown and the evidence confirmatory of the charge put on the stand. Mock and all as the trial was it was able and had ita serious side. But mock trial, national holiday, nothing had charms for us now. Tired out with tramping the northern districts of Alberta, and al- most exhausted by the oppressively hot tem- perature of the steppe, some elected rather to serve Morpheus than any other of the gods, to putasideforthe nonce jingoism and take it out in the equivalent nightmare

The prairie was now on fire, however, and great natural gas wells added their torked and high mounting flames here and there to the widespread smoke and blaze of the burning grasses making a picture suggestive of Dante's Inferno. We could not sleep; we could at best lie there and recall the scenes just passed. A last glance at the

Rockies we had stolen in the early morn- ing. On those elevated lands passed at noon wave the cypress trees, the scene of many an adventure. Then the train aet us down at Swift Current, to buy buffslo horns and charge engines; another change of engine at Moose jsw, with the same opportunity to buy horns aud tame gophers in the even- ing, and at 1 30 that morning we are land- ed at Regina, the queen city of the prairie, the capital of the Territory. Outside of Moosejaw, Swift Current and one or two uther stops, these five hundred miles of road have little or no local traffic. Every few miles we pass stations named after statesmen or other celebrities, past, present and to come, it is true; but they are, in most cases, silent as the grave. Even Caron had no business aspect, nor worse, any telegrapbic connection. What's in a name / At every 30 miles in 300 of this run we passed 10,000 bare farms of the Sir John Lyster Ksye Co. What success attends this large venture we cannot say. As we have said, the lands seemed fit only for grazing, because of the too abuadant quan- tities of alkaline matter found in the svil. The Company has been making an attempt. however, at agriculiure, aud claims to be successful beyond anticipation. In a late report published by the Department of Agriculture, we are pleased to see that the Experimental Farm's chemist, Mr. Shutt, has stated in evidence before a select committee of the House of Commons that experiments were being made with the soil of this section with a view to determining what it requires to be available for plant food. Strange to say, Mr. Shutt has discovered that what has been considered salts of soda in those alkaline soils is pure epsom salts such as we buy in the drugstore. This discovery, to

gether with the experiments in hand, wii! no doubt lead to a sulation of the difficulty of tillage and crop raising. This is only one of the mavy splendid offices the Ex. perimental Farms are doing for the coun- try in general and the great Northwest in particular.

Regina is perhaps best known to Eastern

that cf the famous Regina Leader, a little hen-coop of a place that almost killed us with disappointment, seeing the character of its editor and the briiliant leaders that are manufactured within its walls; the other—the Transcript, we think,—occupy- ing more pretentious quarters in the business portion of the city to be, and presided over by a genial Island- @r of Scottish extraction, trom somewhere about Bradalbane. And we should mention the laundry of Ching Lang Foo, perhaps John Chinaman knows where a big town is in promise. Government Hveuse, a good mile outside the city, onthe way to the mounted police barracks, is a fine, modern burlding occupied by Lieut. Governor) Royal. Tho barracks mske a better group- ing of buildings than the whole town of Regina. Here Lieut.-Col Herchmer, Davin’s friend, isin charge—or was in charge—when we called. He has charge of the police all over the territuries, The training school, cflicers quartera, store houses and drill hall are splendidly equipped editices. The drill hal! was burned duwn a few years ago and re-built, causing a bitter debate in the Commons before the estimate passed. The guard-room here, a small building cf one story with a yard fifteen feet square at one end, was the last earthly dwelling of Louis David Riel. The Regina scaffuld, a very telling shibboleth in Que- bec politics since the 10th of November, 1885, was crected in this little guard-room yard. Judge Richardson can see it al- ways from his back window, When we called at the barracks, Co]. Herchmer, un- bearable as he is tothe Bard of Regina, was very genial and courteous indeed. He is an Englishman of middle age, with a free-and-easy way about him, something like the junior member for Queen's, and the command of his thousand men doesn’t seem to weigh heavy on him. Neither do those Davinian charges which sre eternally cropping up in parliament. We tried to get at the bottom of this now historic equabble when at Regina, and could only find that it had a personal grudge for substratum. Herchmer and Davin were very fast friends till the Colonel refused to be made use of longer by the erudite editor. The waiters failed at a dinner in the leading hotel at Regina; Nicholas Flood promised to have a whole regiment from the barracks ina jiffy. He telephoned Herchmer to send his waiters in uniform, if you please. The commander replied he'd do nothing of the sort. The member for Western Assini- boia swore vengeance against the unobliging Cvulonel, and war has raged ever since, ‘The position of commandant here is a very nice thing, and for aught we know the pres- ent incumbent discharges its duties as well as any other would. As we said he treated us well anyhow, taking us to his quarters for refreshments, which were certainly none the less acceptable that hot day because not served by a waiter in uniform, and giving us an cfticer for a guide over the post. We like to say a good word for those who treat us well. Certainly on this head Coil. Herchmer deserves our best acknowledgments. Be it remarked en passant that besides dancing attention to Davin and Herchmer and performing some more or less soldierly offices, the duty of the Mounted Police is to look after the Indians of the Northwest and preserve order generally. They are easily distinguishable in their scarlet jackets, striped trouwsers and top bvots.

The Territorial House of Parliament is within a mile of the town, Near by are other buildings—the lodian Department offices, presided over by Hayter Reed, the LIudian Commissioner of looting fame, and some other Government offices, and the cottages of the officers. Parliament was nothing but a come mon council when we were that way. There was no opposition, no trouble getting their measures through; all talked the business over in afriendly way and then passed it. Since thena change has come over that common sense assembly. They have fallen isto the anti quated forms of the older provioces, and taken w makiog and breaking governments. We called on Mr. Jelly, M. P. P. for Regina North, at his farm, five miles out of town, and he told us this change was coming. He is a Haultain man, but was afraid of Cayley (other names tor government and opposition). Cay- ley has triumphed since, but his triumph hae not been of long duration.
