Americanizing Canada, More than half of the 5,000 immi- grants who entered Canada in Decem- ber were from the United States, In the year 1908 nearly 150,000 came in, and 57,000 of them were from “the States,” as our neighbors over the border put it. This sort of thing is giving the Canadian Northwest, a vast region of much vitality and prom- ise and swift growth, a decided American tinge. American books and magazines, American fashions, American slang and American ideas, too, are much in evidence. American money is one of the greatest sources of prosperity. American enterprise is leading the most active and grow- ing section of the Dominion along the road to very American wealth and industrial power. Old-fashioned Canadians, intensely loyal to their own country and to Great Britain, do not like this Amer- icanizing of the Dominion’s wide ex- panse of wheat lands in the North- west, but they are unable to stem the tide. If Canada is inviting enough to enterprising men and important enough as a place for their work and thelr investments, the Americanizing will go on. And what Canadian wants his country to fall or slacken its pace in any phase of growth which attracts the homeseekers from the United States ? — Cleveland Leader, In Ancient Page.

The body of who was the late found Pottsville — Mrs. Esther Brandt, dead in a pool of blood at her lonely Llewellyn, December 12, after the Coroner's jury had found a verdict of suicide, is to be exhumed at the demand of the woman's relatives, who claim to have evidence of murder. An autopsy will be held at Minersville Officers and neighbors are now con- vinced that the aged woman did not sommit suicide. The more the mat- ter was looked into the stronger be- came the murder theory, and it Is expected that following the autopsy two suspects will be placed under arrest, and compelled to explain cer- tain suspicious circumstances in con- nection with their whereabouts on the night of the crime and some of thelr actions since The two knife wounds from which the woman died were of a character such as would have been almos: im- possible to inflict, even by a strong man, upon himself. Mrs Brandt was elderly and almost an invalid. The weapon with which the culting was done was a dull carving knife, and there were two distinctive wounds, either of which would have fatal, and neither one of which it is thought could have been self- inflicted. home at and buried SCHOOLS MAY BE AN 18ST E.
