NOTE.—In 1888 the districts of Alberta, Assiniboia, Athabaska and Saskatchewan, then called the Northwest Territories, with their capital at Regina, were given local responsible government, and the old Northwest Council was replaced by the Northwest Legislature, which existed until Aug. 31, 1905. When the area included in these districts was formed into the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan, on Sept. 1, 1905, these provinces were given systems of government similar to the other provinces of the Dominion. The remaining areas (Yukon and the provisional districts of Franklin, Keewatin and Mackenzie) are now administered by the Lands, Northwest Territories and Yukon Branch, Department of the Interior. The Deputy Minister of the Department is, ex officio, the Commissioner of the Northwest Territories which comprises the three provisional districts. LIEUTENANT-GOVERNORS. Date of Date of Name.

HONORARY ADVISORY COUNCIL FOR SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH IN CANADA. One of the most striking results of the great war is the sudden awakening of the English-speaking world to the importance of scientific and industrial research, and the realization by governments of the necessity of applying scientific research to the whole range of problems which present themselves in both war and peace. With the declaration of war, the supplies of several classes of pro­ ducts for which Great Britain had come to rely almost exclusively upon Germany—in the manufacture of which that country had gradually secured a practical monopoly—were suddenly cut off.

  • Section Y: Politics and Government
    Section Y: Politics and Government Jean Louis Roy,l McGill University The data in the tables of Section Y fall into two major divisions. Series Yl-296 concern the federal scene, series Y297-387 the 10 provincial scenes. Within the first major division, series Yl-40 contain data on executive and legislative posts and occupants; series Y41-210 on elections and parliamentary sessions; series Y211-263 on employees and representation abroad; and series Y264-296 on disallowance of provincial acts, reservation of provincial bills and on federal Royal Commissions. Within the second division, series Y297-801 present provincial data on Lieutenant-Governors and premiers; series Y302-387 the results of provincial elections. The statistics of this section are obtained in a way that places them in two major categories: those for which there are official records, such as the data for the monarchy, for the Governor General and provincial Lieutenant-Governors, for parliamentary terms and for elections; and those for which only unofficial records exist, including all those involving election results by political parties, and political affiliation of ministers, electoral candidates and elected members of legislatures. This distinction arises from the nature of governmental and electoral processes. Official data become available in several ways. First, official acts of the Government of Canada are published in the Canada Gazette, an official publication existing specifically for this purpose, and official acts of provinces are published in similar provincial publications. Thus notices of accession of Monarchs, of appointments of Governors General and Lieutenant-Governors, of establishment of portfolios or like posts and of the appointment of occupants, of the establishment of Royal Commissions and of the appointment of the commissioners, and of proclamation of elections and dissolution of parliament are published officially.

Of these lands large areas are offered in free grants as homesteads for settlers.1 The lands are laid out in townships of 36 sections. Each section contains 640 acres and is divided into quarter sections of 160 acres. A quarter section of 160 acres may be obtained by a settler on payment of an entry fee of $10 and fulfilment of certain conditions of residence and cultivation. To qualify for the issue of the patent for his homestead a settler must have resided upon his home­ stead for at least six months in each of three years, must have erected a habitable house thereon, must have at least 30 acres of his holding broken of which 20 acres must be cropped, and must be a British subject.

  • Types of Canadian Women Before the Public
    THE ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE are few national institutions of more value and interest to the THEREcountry than the Royal Military College at Kingston. At the same time, its object and the work it is accomplishing are not sufficiently under- stood by the general public. ' The College is a Government institution, designed primarily for the pur- pose of giving the highest technical instructions in all branches of military science to Cadets and Officers of Canadian Militia. In fact, it is intended to take the place in Canada of the English Woolwich and Sandhurst and the American West Point. The Commandant and Military Instructors are all officers on the active list of the Imperial army, lent for the purpose, and in addition there is a complete staff of Professors for the civil subjects, which form such a large proportion of the College course. Whilst the College is organized on a strictly military basis the Cadets receive, in addition to their military studies, a thoroughly practical, scientific and sound training in all subjects that are essential to a high and general modern education. The course in Mathematics is very complete, and a thorough grounding is given in the subjects of Civil Engineering, Civil and Hydrographic Sur- veying, Physics, Chemistry, French and English. The object of the College course is thus to give the Cadets a training which shall thoroughly equip them for either a military or civil career. The strict discipline maintained at the College is one of the most valuable features of the system. As a result of it young men acquire habits of obedience and self-control, and consequently of self-reliance and command, as well as experience in controlling and handling their fellows.
