Thirty-thousand men are needed to harvest the grain crop of the Canadian Northwest, and it will be impossible to get anywhere near this number, according to the Manitoban Government. The Government therefore has recommended that the jails and prisons of the province be opened and that all prisoners serving time for minor offenses be released on condition that they hire out to help garner the crop. This recommendation probably will be acted upon and the- men will be freed some time next week, as fast as places of labor are assigned to them. The prisoners are said to take the order very kindly, as It will give them an opportunity to earn 2 and $3 a day for several weeks instead of spending the time behind the bars. It has been estimated that the grain crop of the Canadian Northwest will reach 100,000,000 bushels this year. CAMPAIGN LIE NAILED BY TAFT Dollar a Day Wage Never Agitated by Him.
