He said in part: The crying need of the district is roads, and he pointed to the fact that muoh is being said at present about a possible war between the United States and Japan. In such an event his district would be practically cut off. What was imperatively required, was a highway connecting the Atlin district with the rest of Canada, one from Haz- elton to Whitehorse to connect with the trans-provincial highway in the south. While Atlin is essentially a mining, country .there are^ large areas of agricultural land. In the Naas River Valley there was the largest area of fine land to be found anywhere else in the province. He asked the government to look into the possibilities of the Naas River Country, where tobacco and corn can be grown and there is not today even a cplonization road in that section, and the result was that there are now only thirteen sellers in the Valley. A road is imperatively required if the land is to bo settled. Mr. Kergin advocated apolicy of wage insurance to protect workers in industries, declaring that there had been cases where companies had defaulted in wage payments. He suggested that in cases of failures there should be an arrange ment by the government for taking an assignment of the pay-roll and collecting later through the attorney general's department. Eulogizing on the scenic attractions of this district, Mr. Kergin said 'You talk about Vancouver Island and you sometimes get as far north as »Prince Rupert, but you never hear of your tourist associations down here mentioning Atlin,' the district par excellence for scenery, game and natural re- cources and the most consistent gold producer in Canada. He referred to the Premier mine as an example of the mineral wealth of the district and declared that Anyox is the only copper smelter in Canada that is working today, and that it is one of the three on the North American Continent thojb. is in operation. Atlin he averred is one of the greatest assets the province posseses and it would be to the interests of the people of the other portions of the province to get acquainted' with this district which must bring in all its supplies from the outside and therefore is a matter of importance to the business interests of the province. Referring to the P. G. E. Railway, he described it as a wonderful piece of work, something the people of the province agreed to and gave the then government a mandate to proceed with its construction. Now the people have changed their minds about the road, but the government is bound to see the project through he stated. Meeting of Ex-Seryice Men at Alice Arm A meeting of Ex-service Men was hold at the residence of Mr. G. Young, on Wednesday last, when preliminary arrangements were made to hold a banquet on Armistice Day, November 11th. ) Messrs. Geo. Young and D. ,S.

Thorsen, of Anyox and Miss Helen Brentzen, of Port Simpson, married in Rupert A pretty wedding was celebrated in Prince Rupert, on Tuesday, October 25th, when Mr. E. L. Thorsen, of Anyox and Miss Helen Brentzen, of Port Simpson, were united in marriage. Rev. Dr. H. R. Grant performed the ceremony, and the witnesses were Miss Bertha Brentzen and J. C. Scherk. Mr. and Mrs. Thorsen will make their home in Anyox; where both are well-known. At the Prince Rupert General Hospital on October 24, a daughter was born to Mr., and Mrs. D. Matheson, of Naas Harbor; Community League Meeting of Friday, October 21st. Important Matters under Discussion The weekly meeting of the Anyox Community League was held in the Recreation Hall, on Friday, October 21st. President R. Armour was in the chair, and a large number of members were present. Many important matters were brought up for discussion. Councillor Sherman reported that he was busy making arrangements to have the Gymnasium opened at an early date. A meeting of the Foriim will be held in the Library, to-night, (Saturdry, October 29th) at 7.30 p.m. All those interested in Library, Debating, Reading Circle, or Literary Work are requested to be present. There being a vacancy for councillor for the Choral and Dramatic chair, it was decided to advertise that nominations and election to fill this seat would take place at the next meeting, October 28th, when all members of the League present may vote, instead of con' fining to members of the Council the right to make appointments to fill vacancies. In connection with the monster Christmas Tree in which all associations and institutions are request- to combine, Rev. J. Herdman, (Union Church) and Rev. J. G. Gibson (Anglican Church) intimated that their respective Churches, would hold their own Sunday School Christmas Trees, but they would also do all they could to assist' with the community tree. A committee was appointed to work in conjunction with Miss Reader, whose department will handle the League's end of the arrangements. The manager of the Theatre was requested to try and procure,a Santa Claus Film for the occasion. Mr. Duke Hilbert made application for permission to open a dancing class, which was accepted. A committee being appointed to make arrangements with Mr. Hilbert. • \ News of the Naps Valley Why a Road is Needed Views of the Settlers on Proposed Road Charlie Vetter recently purchased a nanny goat to add to the stock on his flourishing ranch by the Seaks River. He will have to erect a nanny proof barrier round his tobacco orchard in future, because the animal chews. ' Charlie had a great crop of black currants and strawberries this year, also some of the finest fall wheat ever seen, not to mention the variety and profusion of vegetables grown by the united efforts of himself and his wife and daughter, all of them being most enthusiastic gardeners. The place looked beautiful indeed, with its wealth of produce, much of which was rotting on the ground, due to lack of transportation facilities. We shall have to step on the tail of Mr. Government (as the Indian calls it) and let' him know we are here. We have heard lots of noise, such as "Back to the land" and all the side dishes too, but we are not able to go back to the land in the lot adjoining the city of Vancouver or Victoria, nor yet the sunny Okanagan (much as we might enjoy being so 'close to the movies,) because the cost of land is a little, just a little out of reach and Father fell down and broke our step-ladder. That's why we are here, on land surveyed and thrown open for settlement by Mr. Government's "Back to the land" policy. Under the circumstances and the blue sky above, there is one question that forcibly presents itself. Is the government sincere or hypocritical.? If the government is sincere, then there is every opportunity for a practical demonstration by building a good road into' the rioh and fertile Naas Valley,' providing an outlet for produce by way of Alice Arm and Anyox, at the same time renewing the confidence and goodwill of the people of this whole district. A good permanent road is a necessity, something that can be used, not a half finished trail such as can be seen in many parts of this beautiful province. There is no time like the present, as there are many unemployed who could be given work on such projects, relieving congestion in the cities and doing good all the way through. Continued on page. 2.

It is most gratifying to the citi zens of the Atlin riding that the local member of the legislature, Mr. H. F. Kergin, has already brought to the notice of the government the argent necessity of building more roads in this northern part of the province, In his speech in the House, on October 20, he brought to the notice of the government the fact that the famed, rich and spacious Naas River Valley had no outlet whatever, and the result was that at the present time the population of this valley comprised about thirteen settlers. Now that the facts of the case have been brought to the notice of the government it is up to them to investigate the possibilities of the valley and provide an outlet for the settlers as quickly as possible. If the government is sincere in its "Back to the land" policy it will not hesitate one minute in surveying a route to tidewater. The people of this district do not want the government to spend a cent of the public money unless such expenditure is justified, and if the government can show us where they can open up a larger and more fertile tract of land than the Naas River Valley, for the same amount of money, in this district, we are willing that they should do so. Mr. Kergin has on various occasions pointed out the phenom- inal growth of the north country during the past fifteen years, and we venture to say that if the government of the province had built more good roads—roads that an auto truck could run over— instead of goat trails, that the population of the northern part of the province would be treble what it is today. The permanent growth of northern B. C. depends entirely upon the number of miles of good roads built each year, and it is the duty of everyone to help bring pressure to bear on the government to build a good road system in the north, similar to that in the southern part of the province. We are rapidly out-growing the foot trails scattered throughout the country and it is time the government started to build permanent roads and also link up the different systems already built. Naas Valley Notes Continued from Page 1 Mr. A. F. Priestly is back in the Valley and has a good stock of provisions in his store for the winter trade. He says he is not a bit peeved to find himself home again and the country down south has nothing on the Naas after all. Frank Hoeft has built a fine woodshed for Mrs, Frank and she says it is just dandy. Gus Weber is going into the chicken business (feathered variety) and has erected a capacious house for the animals. Everyone had a large crop as usual. Some large apples of good quality were grown by Stewart, Hoeft and Spencer on their respective ranches. The Wynes family of Brook Farm have increased their stock this season, and have the nucleus of a thriving cattle business. Mr. Pat Calnin has also more stock this year, and is ably assisted by his daughter who came up from the States, and she is a most enthusiastic rancher. Charlie Gordon who came over from Alice Arm last spring, has a Cabin built and nineteen and a half acres under cultivation. He has a quarter section of 160 acres, sixty acres of which is ready for the plough. Mr. John Nelson has been very busy this summer working his various holdings and curing hay for his stock. George Wohlschlegel, assisted by Denny Jackson and Alfred Wynes, has been building an addition to his "Wee Hoose" and that doggone little bird has been 'blathering round again, and this time it whispers some sound like Bride and Wedding Bells. We hope its a truthful little bird, because we like to hearken to the musical tinkle. Three arty cheers; Oorah! Wottoh!! Ooray!!! etc. Nels Olsen sent over a sack of vegetables this week, to Alice Arm, to show the miners of that town what the valley is capable of producing in the way of garden truck, Many of the early settlers will return to the valley as soon as the government brings forth the key of the situation and unlocks the door, by building a good road in from Alice Arm, thus carrying out a sound policy of necessary development, instead of converting the same into a mere fallacy. NOTATOR. Pat Daly has Settled with Premier Co. It is reported that the Premier Mining Company has settled with Pat Daly. The sum paid to stop the action is said to be $35,000, and part of the settlement money has already been paid.. Pat was seeking to recover a one-fifth interest in the Premier mine, and suit was filed for the sum of $1,960,000. Heavy ice was running in the Yukon Eiver, on October 22, and it will soon be frozen over. The Porcupine is already closed. More than forty mining properties of the Stewart district will be represented at the American Mining Congres, to be held in Chicago. The people of Stewart raised more than the necessary amount of money to defray expenses. Subscribe to the Herald.

That is the question and. that is the whole question. And the great, big, necessary thing is that every rater in this country from the Yukon to Halifax knows that this is the question he or she is deciding when he or. she votes in this great contsst." —ARTHUR MEIGHEN THE vital issue in the coming election— in fact, the only issue—is the Tariff, and to every clear thinking Canadian it should be readily apparent that a Protective Fiscal Policy is absolutely essential to stability, progress and development. Every important country in the world upholds Protection as an essential economic principle. Even Great Britain—so long the stronghold of Free Trade—has now adopted laws that constitute. Protection of the most effective kind. In fact, the present policy among most nations is towards raising their tariff walls, not lowering them. In the face of these facts it would be suicidal for Canada to do exactly the reverse and discard the fiscal system which has been responsible for its progress during the past forty-three years. Free Trade would mean death to Canadian Industry. It would also result in the immediate closing down of Canadian plants of foreign firms, with consequent additional unemployment. There are to-day 650 American factories alone in Canada. Similar proposed ventures would be abandoned. New capital would refuse to come to a Country lacking adequate protection and present industrial enterprise would be promptly strangled by foreign competition. The preservation of the home market by a Reasonable Protective Tariff is vital to both city dweller and agrarian alike—now as never before. More capital is urgently needed for the development cf Canada's enormous resources, which will result in a lessening of unemployment and an increased population. More work and more workers will produce an enlarged home market for products of both city and farm, and the exodus of Canadian men and women—and the dollars they earn—will be precluded. The United States has slammed her trade door in the face of Canadian farmers by adopting the Fordney Bill, and the former is consequently now even more dependent upon the home market than in the put. Yet Crerar asks you to destroy that home market by voting for Free Trade. King's policy—if he has one—will result in the destruction of the Tariff. Meighen stands Four square for Reasonable Protection—Protection for all the people—and asks for an overwhelming mandate to give both industry and agriculture that assurance which will spell prosperity for all.
