A cry for wives comet from the French-Canadian settlers In the Ca nadian northwest territories. A Ro man Catholic clergyman In Alberta Is contemplating trying a scheme suggested to him by the disconsolate bachelors of his parish . for supply ing them with wives. Women, except squaws, are scarce In the Canadian territories, Rnd there Is an absolute absence of young mar riageable women of the same race and religion ns the' struggling sef tlers who have gone out there from the. French parishes of the province of Quebec. The priests arc anxious to see them married to wives of their own na tionality and faith, so as to encourage the growth In the northwest of a French speaking and Roman Cath olic population. Judging from the wonderful In crease of the French Canadian na tion to the province of Quebec, tha supplying of wives and mothers to the northwest settlers Is all that Is necessary far the establishment of an equally populous settlement on the western prairies, says, the New York Gun ' ' Tho'northwest settlers are only too anxious to fall In with the desires of their priests In the matter of mar rtage. The lack of marriageable wo' men In the northwest territories- can not be obviated by any efforts it their own. They can not afford the time, even to pay a visit to the province of Quebec to select wives for them selves. Hut .they are prepared to do so to a certain extent, by proxy. Provided a sufficiently large assortment Is brought to their doors to afford them some little chance for selection, they are prepared to depute their priests to do the rest. - The scheme has been discussed in, the French-Canadian, newspapers and the first party of candidates for matrimony will prob ably leave for Calgary In a few weeks. The apparent novelty of the scheme has drawn down upon It a large amount of ridicule. Those who are encouraging It argue that It not only does not savor of any Impropri ety, but also that even the charge of novelty can not be brought against it. They point out that similar course was followed In France for supply I rig wives to the earliest: settlers In Canada. TO RECOVER PUBLIC LANDS. GENERAL NEWS. Rosedale Lodge, I. O. O.

THE MAILCARRIER DISOBEYS. Will Not Tlirow Off Mall nt Sullsliury, Baker County. A rather queer condition has arisen about the Salisbury mall, on the Sumpter branch, says the Baker City Herald. The postofflce at that place Is to be discontinued on the 29th and In order to have mall delivered to Unity and Hereford the department has sent Instruction to Milt Eddy, the carrier, that he shall omit Salisbury proper and commence at the railroad station. Eddy read the orders and then bucked. He contends there la no suitable building at the railroad station where he can deposit the mall and for that reason refuses to run the risk of leaving the pouch bearing the emblem U. S. That It where Eddy's head la work ing about right, for should anything happen to that pouch In all probabil ity he would be called on the carpet and accused of rank carelessness. While the department does not In tend to be unjust In Its rulings there are many things that come up which the judgment of the man on the ground Is much better to follow than the first assistant postmaster general and the whole Inspection department. : Jews to Settle In Southwest.

Two sensational suits have been In stituted In the United States district court here by Timothy F. F.urkte, United States attorney for Wyoming. against the Diamond Coal and Coke company, a Utah corporation oper ating extensive coal , lands In Uinta county, Wyo., says the Cheyenne Tribune. The first Is a suit In equity for the restoration of 1760 acres of coal lands In Uinta county alleged to have been fraudulently secured by the company, a reasonable price for the coal mined on these lands and ask ing for an Injunction restraining the company from continuing to mine coal on such lands. Sues for Timber. The second Is a civil suit for t12 760 damages for the alleged cutting of timber on government forest re serves. These timbers were used by the company as mine props and for other purposes In connection with the operation of the DiamondvUle colleries. The suit In equity for the restora tlon of the 2760 acres of coal lands was prepared by Attorney-General Charles J. Bonaparte and signed by him, being Instituted In the federal court for Wyoming by District Attor ney T. F. Burke. 34 Fraudulent Entries. The petition alleges that Thomas Sneddon, now superintendent of the DiamondvUle mines, and Daniel F. Harrison entered Into a conspiracy In 1S00 to defraud the government out of valuable coal lands; that thely secured transfers of soldiers' addl tlonal homestead claims and made tilings In the United States land office at Evanston on these lands, aggre gating 2760 acres and covered by 34 fraudulent entries. These filings were made at various times from 1900 to 1904, and the petition avers that the aald Thomat Sneddon and Daniel F. Harrison, In each case, filed non-mineral affidavits In the Evanston land office, secured title to the lands and later transferred them to the Diamond Coal and Coke company. Remarkable Rescue.

Robert Pratt, a saloonkeeper of Culdeac, and Martin . Carlson, his bartender, were arrested at Culdesao Monday afternoon on the charge of selling liquor to Indians. The arrest was made under the old state law en acted In 1S77, making it a misde meanor to cell liquor to Indians. Un til the decision In the Dick case sev eral months ago by the TJ. S. circuit court of appeals, which reversed the decision of guilty In that case ren dered by Judge Bentty's court, all coses of this character have been nrorecuted under the federal law and the stnte law has never been Invoked In uch cases. There Is considerable speculation among the legal profession as to the outcome of this case as it will be a test as to the constitutionality of the old state law. Lowlcton Tribune.
