Fol- lowed a Riotous Period and P ace Followed Their Coming. WHAT THEY ... HAVE DONE Their Sterling Worth Long Recognized in Repressing and Discovering Crime. The Vancouver Sun says : Previous to the late autumn of 1874 the great middle west of Can- ada was without law or general gov ernment of any kind. Murders, mas- sacres of Indians by whites and oth- tr Indians, tribal wars, fighting and Dloodshed were qceuring continually, and to make matters worse there would come over from Montana and. south of the boundary line a number of traders with forty-rod whiskey, whose advent was always followed by 2 period of licentioustiess and revolt on the part of Indians and whites: alike, In the north conditions were some- . what better. eth ment of the people, influenced by mix- sionaries who had travelled in from Winnipeg, had secured proclamma. tion from the lieutenant-governor of Manitoba and the Northwest Terri- teries forbidding the importation or sale of intoxicants in those sections, and as the sentiment of the people of the north was behind the pro- clamation it was generally obeyed. The Hudson's Bay posts, missionar- es and settlements. were at that time all north af the North Sas- Katchewan, where law and order was generally obeyed, but the whole coun- try south of the North Saskatche- wan was infected by the whiskey traders, who brought in and dispens- ed to Indians and whites alike the vilest of alcoholic compounds. The climax of the reign of the whiskey traders was reached in the late 60's and carly 70's and so gen- eral was the disapproval of the set- Hers to the north that strong re Presentations were made to the Do- minion government at Ottawa urge 4ng the establishment of a force to Preserve iaw and order in the far west. Rev. John McDougall, father of the well known Rev. John C. McDougall, was one of the prime movers in bringing the: exact state of aflairs to the cars of the authorities. In 1873 with his son Jobn, he made a special tour through the district now known as southern Alberta, visited Fort Whoop-Up and other whiskey-forts, and continuing his journey.down to - gorthern Montana.

A, Dovbin, a oe tions being made during the summer of that year the When the prairies was commenced the numbering some 300 of the. most in- trepid spirits in the American con- tinfnt, wasisplit into three parties and sent in different directions. One body went to Fort Pelly, in what is ndw the southeastern katchewan. Another body was sent te Fort Edmonton on the banks of the Saskatchewan, the capital now stands, and a third into Southern Alberta. last body that Old. Man river at the mouth of Wil- low creek, and there, int December, 1874, Fort, McLead was built occupied and law and order took up Jits work in- Southern ABperta. Long before the ed-coated riders of the plains made their appearance couriers .amnotmeing their coming were sent im every direction. Fort Carlton, Fort Pitt and Kdmon- ton to Fort MeDougall at the base of the Rockies in the Calgary dis- trict, then known as the-Bow River country, these couriers came. John McDougall, time out. on the plains with 2 large party of Mountain and Sood Stoney Indians buffalo hunting for meat for the winter, was advised of the com-' ing of the police by his wife, who sent an Indian courier to find him. The courier found the missionary at a point some fifty miles northeast of where Calgary now stands, and came upon Mr. MeDougall when the Yatter was in the middle of an im- passioned speech to a combined band of Stowies and a large camp of Northwestern Blackfeet under Sun, Briek Elk, Bear Child and oth- er Indiam chiefs, to make war on tie party with Mr. McDougal. The courier also brought word to Mr. MeDougall that he bad been appointed peaee commission r to precede the foree and explain to the Indiams that the armed men did not come te fight them, but merely to protect their and to preserve law amd order. The report of the message had a remarkable effect on the Indians, and Old Sun, speaking for the war perty, promised to hold the time being, givite Mr. McDougall this message: We will await your eoming to our lodges with the message of the) Gury, Satine waa Molt foe Methec stat ber ith produce. demanded that shall nd be te Suerer at stake Net Limited be returned to Turkish brutalities Having received the assurance of the tribes that there would be no more warfare, the missionary, with two white men and two made a flying trip as peace comm s- sioner all over the country lying be- tween Edmonton and the boundary line, soimg from camp to camp as s horses would take them,- and jcance, emphasizing to the traders, settlers and Indians alike the fact that force had come merely to police the district and not to make war. This woek occupied some two and one hal months of strenuous travel, which time the Indians and traders were in a state of unrest and expect- ancy. This unrest. was particularly noticeable among the whiskey tra ers, who saw, with the coming of the police, the end of their long reign of lawlessness. Among the Indians, however, coming of the police was wth more or less thankfulness, as previous to that time the traders, armed with rifles and revolvers, shot i who to Ottawa, and Royal tawa, travelling west through the United States and gathering recruits in route, the nucleus of the force reaehed the banks of the Red river in Montaza in the fall of 1873, and af- ter va halt there to complete ongan- ization started across the summier of 1874. the plains in THE LONG MARCH. long march across the foree, part of Sas- north where It was this ultimately came to and Via who was at that Ofd who were anrious lives and property A REMARKABLE EFFECT. hostilities for Indians, the during the received trad down in cold blood any Indian, dares to cross them im any way. HURRIES CUTTING OF WEST'S GRAIN Change of Moon Ex; to Bring Period of Set- tled Conditions. NO HARM DONE BY FROST Farmers Seize on Fine Day and Threshing is Now Under Way. (W. A. P. Despateh) Winnipeg, Sept. 10. Fine clear weather all over the west has given great impetus to work in tho har- vest fields. Temperatures remain cool, which disposes of any alarm on the score of grain sprouting in the stook after much heavy rain. There was no frost last night though the mercury dropped below freezing at many points. The lunar month: just closed was about as bad as it could be in the line of broken weather and the local weather bureau expects the new moon to usher in more settled conditions. FINE ABOUT REGINA Regina, Sept. 10 Ideal harvest- ing weather continues throughout this district. If present conditions Prevail for the balznce of the week all the cutting will be done soon. Although the nights are cool.and the dew heavy it is not thought that there has been any frost up to the present. FARMERS SEIZE OPPORTUNITY. Saskatoon, Sask., Sept. 10. Ideal weather with a cloudless sky is for the first time for many days: the condition today and the weather has every indication of being set fair. On all sides of the city farmers were making the most of the opportunity and all wheat should be cut by the end of the week, while if the weath- er holds all the oats and flax will be down by the following week-end. Although the mercury dips low at night, S0 far no frost has been re- corded in this district and harvest - ing, has progressed so far now that there is little danger from this source if the rain will hold off. Weyburn, Sask., Sept. 10- Splen- did weather the past three days and prospects of better conditions. . Grain is nearly ready. No frost. to date. Many already have commenced threshing.

Nelson, Sept. 9 if a guarantee could be given that there would mev- er be compulsory military service in Canada John Sherbinin, generally re- garded as chief lieutemant to Peter Veregin, head of the Doukhobors, would have little objection to the reg istration of births, merriages and deaths.

With regard to the conduct of the business Mr, Te- viotdale said that in ordinary mat- ters he used bis own discretion; in extraordinary matters he referred to Mr. Sherbinin or Mr. Veregin. He Understood that the business was the Property of the Doukhobor commun ity, but.no books were kept showing those interested in it. Last year about one-third of the fruit used by the factory had been purchased from the Doukhobors, who taised it on thelr own Ind. The balance came from other ranchers. He had a free hand in the purchase of fruit. A very Jarge percentage came from the city and the rest was purchased in the district. There was no discrimination against any. class of settlers. Pay by Cheeks Asked regarding the method of pay- ment for the produce Mr. Teviotdale Said that Iast year the amount due the Doukhobors had been placed against a contra account for labor and other things. This year payment was being made by checks. A very smali portion of the fruit being used this year was belng pur-j chased from the Doukhobors. The Commissioner: What endorse- ment have the checks borne when they came back to you through the clearing house? : Mr. Teviotdale s reply was that he had been instructed to pay by check, but that they had actually not been issued as there were some contra ac- counts. His instructions were to send the checks monthly. The checks had been drawn, but had not been sent away. Mr. Sherbinin had giren in- structions: td pay by check and also to withhold themYnevontra account hadstoy be adjusted so., that checks could be issued by the factory to the Doukhabors and b ythe Doukliobors to the factory. The reason that the factory purchased so little fruit from the Dowkhobors this Year was that the community consumption had grown so rapidly that they had hard- ly enough to supply their own needs. The Doukhobors were paid the same price for the fruit as the other growers. From the factory point: of view it was a matter of indifference whether the fruit was purchased from the Doukhobors or some one else. The production last. year was about 150,008 pounds: and would be. about 300,000 pounds this year. OUCHT T0:R AEGEAN ISLANDS AGITAT RS WOULD NOT HAVE THEM AGAIN PUT UNDER TURKISH MISRULE. URGE GCARIBALB 10 ACT Famous Keformer s Son Declines the government to report upen these peo- ple, explaining the reasums for these laws to the people at Brilliant. Mr. Sherbinin does mut believe im edacation for the Doukhobors andi takes the ground that they are purely farming people and as such do not: need It. These views were expressed by Mr Sherbinis at the sitting bela by Mr. Blakemore. The only owher witness called was R. C. Teviotdate, secretary- treasurer of the Kootenay-Columbia Preserving Works, who expressed the pinion that the factory as operated Ws the Doukhobors could only be for the benefit of the frult-growing in- dustry and that there was no danger Mr. Teviotdale said ter Vere gin was president of the jam com- pany and that he, the witness, was Secretary-treasurer. t A.M. Johnson, representing the Doukhobors, said that he would like to point ont that in this case the ti- tles of president and secretary-treas- urer did not have their usual signif- To the commissioner, who remark- ed that the president was the execu- Uve head, the responsible official, Mr. Johnson replied that Mr. Veregin was never elected president of the com- pany, and was not president because the company did not exist. The jam factory was owned by the community and while Mr. Teviotdale held the position of secretary-treasurer and performed the same functions as if the business were limited company or a limited partnership he was not more than a paid servant.

The Italian government ia urged to insure for the islands autonomous government to which it is asserted they are entitled by ethi- cal, racial and politicdl considera- tions.
