Saskatchewan became a province in September 1905. The District of Assiniboia compromises the bottom quarter of the province, and was, previous to that, part of the North West Territories. This cover, dated about 5 months before the province was created was postmarked in Regina, now the capital of the province. It is back canceled in Regina on July 5. You can also see a partial broken circle cancel from, what I think is Chamberlain Assa., the destination of the letter.
