April 6\nThe Negro Problem in Edmonton\nThe news of the arrival at Edmonton of a trainload of negroes from Oklahoma\nto till the soil cf All>erta along certain fringes of the G. T. P. was calculated to be\ndisturbing news without the further information that two of their number were\ndestined to be concerned in an assault upon a white girl in Edmonton.\nWithout assuming the guilt of the latter\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdassuming indeed that like the unfortunate Booker T. Washington they may be the victims of unfounded race suspicion and race hatred-it is to be hoped that the authorities will go slow in\nthe matter of introducing negro communities into Alberta. There is a point where\nit is but a step across from Alberta to British Columbia.\nTrue there are negro communities in Nova Scotia whose conduct under British\ninstitutions is as exemplary as the conduct under British institutions of the negroes\nin the West Indies. Bu'. we may be pardoned if we feel a reluctance to see negro\ncommunities established on either side of the Rockies, save under most conservative\nand safe-guarded conditions. Above all, Canada must be guarded*from\"the possibility of having to face a race war inside her boundaries.\nCoiwervative methods in dealing with this class of immigrationrare in the\ninterests of the negroes themselves. There is a difference in the climate of Oklahoma\nand northern Alberta. Winter rigots that brace the nerves and give zest to the\nBritish immigrants\" joy of living, may freeze the thinner blood of the negro immigrant.   It will be kindness to him under in small trial quantities at first.\nCanada needs immigrants, but of the right kind. The negro settlers may-\nprove to be of the tight kind. For their and our interests it is to be hoped they\nwill prove lo be of the right kind.   But as ye*, they are an untried quantity. .JBS\nWhat has become of those five thousand Scottish farm laborers ^that'Mr.\nT. W. W. Stewart went over to Britain to procure. His mission was reported\nsuccessful, and they should be due before long. There is no doubt'of their proving\na success both U construction laborers, and later on as settlers by the right of way.\nCondensed Advertisements.\nr\nA RE YOU IN NEED OF HELP?

Masson thus wittily discourses upon a fruitful theme:\n\"Brains are common to all parts of the country, and traces of them have been\ndiscovered in summer at Lenox, Bar Harbor, and Newport.\n\"They are originally used to obtain money, but when money is obtained by\nthem it usually takes their place.\n\"The quality of brains varies in different localities. Mixed with ginger, they\nbecome very valuable.   With a spine, they are a necessity in every household.\n\"At one time they influenced literature, but the discovery was made that literature could do without them. Since then they have been almost exclusively\ndevoted to advertising.\n\"Brains are employed in various enterprises. They make bridges, railroads\nand other systems of transportation. They also create capital, and are used extensively in evading the law. They mix with water and gasoline, but are'absorbed\nby alcohol.\n\"Brains are bought and sold in the open market. They may be traded in on\nthe exchange in Washington and Albany or in other political centres. The best\nquality, however, are not traded in. Indeed, oftentimes they are nol even heard\nof until long after they have passed away.\"\nA Chicago professor says that big feet are always an indication of great brain\npower. If that is the case we should turn over the conduct of government to the\npolice, says the Vancouver World.\nPrince Rupert Young Liberal Association\nSMOKER\nwill be held in the\nK. OK P.

Just now the Grand Trunk is\nI making Prince Rupert but it will not be\nI long before Prince Rupert will make\nI the Grand Trunk Pacific.\nA modern railroad is a wonderful  in-\n1 stitution.    Railroad  building  today   is\n| not a  gamble, it ia a science.   A rail-\n| road that would just make  a town its\nI terminus just for the sake of making a\n' town would be committing suicide.     It\n. would be flirting with the  undertaker,\n: as my friend Sheriff Small used to say\nback in Missouri.    A  railroad chooses\n\\ its terminus for the  trade  it can get\n' there, for the freight it can bring there |\n: and take away from there.    So you see\ni the railroad knew exactly what it was\n! doing  when  it  chose   Prince   Rupert.\n\\ We   know   that  many excellent engin-\n| eers, many of the ablest business men,\nI many   large   capitalists   compose   the\n\\ railroad, and we know that their collective judgment must be  good  or they\nwould not be able enginoers, able  business  men or able  capitalists.    They\nselected Prince Rupert.    You or I cannot have better judgment in the matter\nthan they did.    That's our cue to profit\nby their judgment.   Stick with  Prince\nRupert and tell your friends about it.\nIf you don't know  what  to  tell  them\nabout Prince Rupert  ask   me  and  I'll\ntell you what to say.    Also I shall give\nyou my book of Questions and Answers\non Prince Rupert.   You can either send\nthat or copy it.    It is easier to send  it\nor  I'll  send  it for you.
