Dominion Railway Commission Schedules Winnipeg Meeting
The Dominion Railway Commission will meet in Winnipeg on September 22. Reported fires threaten settlements in New Ontario as settlers fight spreading bush blazes. Rumor suggests federal aid to the Selkirks Centennial and possible military use of the buildings. An Irish definition of a homestead jokes about a grant of 160 acres for 10 dollars to prove survival. A crowded car seats two men with a whistling passenger provoking the other. An old gentleman at the park ponders twins in a pram with a witty exchange on identification.
