- Introduction signed: "David Currie." Text in double columns. A critical study of the possibilities for immigrants in Manitoba made by Currie during a tour in 1879. In his conclusion he advises "genteel people who hate manual labor, gregariously disposed persons, fickle-minded, changeable" people, not to emigrate: "Young men, whose moral character is not already fully established, should avoid Winnipeg as they would a den of rattlesnakes." Includes advertising.
