Fred Stork Opens His Campaign With Stirring Speech Fred Stork, member in the House of Commons in the last parliament, and again liberal nominee in the present contest, opened his political campaign in this district, when be addressed a well attended meeting at the Alice Arm Coliseum on Thursday. He was assisted by George Casey, who is well known in the district, and who has always taken an active part in politics. H. Fowler conducted the meeting, whioh he opened with a short address, in whioh he stated that the only reason he could see in Mr. Nickerson taking the field was that he had an axe to grind. Mr. Nickerson had stated in Prince Rupert that should he receive the liberal nomination he was ready to fight for the liberal party. Mr. Fowler said that the Mackenzie King government had not been afraid to go to the people as had the Meighen government who had hung on to office as long as pos- I sible. . Mr. George Casey was the next (speaker, and iu a brief address he said that sometimes the people were called upon to decide momen- tus questions, such as the tariff question, and on these occasions it was perfectly legitimate for the people of the west to protect them- ilves as were the eastern manufacturers. If we could buy tools aud machinery necessary for the developing of our resources cheaper under a low tariff, then if we use good judgement we, would vote for a low tariff. The speaker defended the railway policy of the Laurier govern- | ment in building the i G. T. P. to ' Prince Rupert, and stated that h disasters such as the. death of Chas. 1 Hayes, the defeat of reciprocity i with the United States, coupled | with the fact that the west was t overboomed, was greatly responsible for the relative slow progress I made in making the railway a pay- fling proposition. Mr. Casey said that he was Ij never a member of the liberal ,■ party. The only party he ever belonged to was the labor or social- list party, but in the past he had ■always been a supporter of Mr. Ij'Stork, and had no cause to regret Kit. He believed the best interests I of this district would be served by | returning Mr. Stork. The liberal I party were the friends of this I north-west, and it would be. folly [to turn them down after doing so much in developing it. In touoh- jing on the candidature of Mr. Niokerson he stated that the man Jiiadn't got the slightest chance to ]win, and what on earth oaused jiim to contest the seat was a 'mystery. Fred Stork, who was in fighting e.'im, gave a somewhat lengthy address, in which he reviewed the jiolitioal situation from all angles* (>oth national and looal.

Ste. 2, North West Building, Vancouver, B. 0. The first political speech in connection with the forthcoming Federal election, to be held on Ootober 29th. was given at Alice Arm by G. W. Nickerson, the candidate of the Progressive Party. He was assisted by Wm. Montgomery, who also acted as chairman of the meeting. The meeting was held in the Coliseum on Wednesday evening, and considering the short notice given, a large crowd was present, who listened attentively to both speakers. Win. Montgomery introduced Mr. Nickerson, and stated that he had known him for the past 10 or 12 years, and that he was a man ;who was progressive iu every sense of the word. He was not of the rubber stamp variety, and was, in his opinion the most capable man we could send to Ottawa. The speaker stated that both old parties were owned and controlled by eastern manufacturers, bankers and the C. P. R., and they would not develop the west, and in order to obtain our rights we must consolidate. The Liberals and Conservatives are the same exeept that one party is in power and the other is out. His opinion of the tariff was that it is too high and said that if the Conservatives raise the tariff, it will drive still more Canadians to the U. S. A. in order to make a living, as the cost of living will be prohibitive if the tariff is further raised. Mr. Montgomery severely scored the emigration policy of conservatives and liberals, and said that their policy had been to bring in Europeans and so force Canadians across the international line. The Progressive policy is to keep our own people from emigrating, and if there is enough room for people from Europe they will come here without assistance or advertising on the part of the government Mr. Nickerson, who proved to be a fluent speaker gave a short businesslike address, and gave his reasons for coming out as a candidate in this election. Restated that Mr. Stork had not kept faith with the fishermen of Prince Rupert, when he promised to help them bar American fishermen from Canadian Pacific ports. He said that he had written a personal letter to Mackenzie King, regarding fishing conditions in Prince Rupert. This letter had been turned over to the Department of Marine and Fisheries, and no reply had been received. Heassured his audience that personal spleen against Mr. Stork was not the cause of his running for office. Mr. Nickerson argued that if Mackenzie King had followed the policy of Sir Wilfred Laurier,. the Progressive Party would never have been born. He stated that the liberals had no mandate, and Continued on Page 2 ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Saturday, October 3, 1925 Alice Arm & Anyox Herald Issued every Saturday at Alice Arm Alice Ann and Anyox $2.50 Yearly Other Parts of Canada, $2.75 British isles and United .States, $3.00 Notices for Grown Grants - - $10.00 Land Notices ... - $10.00 Coal Notices .... $0.00 Transient Advertising', 50c. per inch.

Nickerson Sets Forth His Policy and That of Progressive Party 1 have decided to offer myself as a candidate under the banner of the Progressive Party, which under the leadership of Robert Forke is mainly responsible for the construction of the Prince Rupert elevator, proof of which is given in the statement to the press by Mr, Forke when he assumed the leadership of the party prior to 1924. Condensed, it was about as follows: "We will support the Liberal Party as long as they are prepared to give vis what we consider to be in.the interests of the West, one of which is an elevator at Prince Rupert. The Progressive Party are also responsible for the reduction in freight rates on grain moving west, and they represent the producers of the wheat that we hope to see flow through this port. Therefore, it is in your interests to get behind these men, the only Party which still retains faith in Sir Wilfrid Laurier's policy of rolling back the map of Canada and making it broader and better Question of Tariff So far as the tariff is concerned, we find that at the last session the Liber- Continued on page 3 study problems connected with their occupation, can obtain the use of these technical books, which include geology, chemistry and kindred others.

In spite of adverse weather conditions the Community League has successfully carried through an elaborate programme of baseball, football and tennis games, and anyone who has desired to keep lit at either of these games has had every opportunity. This happy state of affairs is due entirely to the work of the Anyox Community League, and the seoretary, on whose shoulders rests the largest part of the burden, great credit is due. Now that the weather has put an end to outdoor sports, the League is turning its efforts towards providing entertainment during the long nights of winter, by opening the Gymnasium. This building was opened on Thursday for basketball, badmington and indoor tennis, and Mr. Ed. Ashton will be in oharge Basketball teams will later be organized, and enough talent is in sight to operate a number of teams, of men, women and children. In order that those of a more sedentary nature shall not be over looked, the Community library is available. The library comprises 4000 volumes and is being constantly enlarged, 100 new books being recently ordered. The volumes range from light fiction to technical works by the best authors of the world, and those desiring to G. W. Nickerson Opens His Political Campaign In District Continued from page 1 that rather than face the music, the tariff question had been handed over to a commission. Both old parties know that the tariff can not be raised and is only an election dodge. He stated that if eastern manufacturers can not compete with American goods, paying 33J per cent tariff, it is time they went out of business. In regard to emigration, he said that under the present policy we are educating our young men aud women for the benefit of the U. 8. A. and until that was remedied it was useless to bring in more people. He stated that the western freight reduction announced a short time ago will be a political football for the next 4 or 5 years,- and that it would eventually be fought out in the courts. He took a crack at the taxation, and stated that we are paying 20 per cent, in taxes, and said that it was time the government cut clown their overhead expenses in connection with operations of the country, i He defended the railway policy of the Laurier government and blamed the construction of the Panama Canal and the war for the miscarriage of plans. Mr. Nickerson criticised the management of the C. N. R. under Sir Henry Thornton, and said that he had not worked for the interests of northern B. C. and Prince Rupert at any time, and quoted various instances where Prince Rupert had been discriminated against. He finished his address by impressing upon his audience the wisdom of voting for the Progressive Party, who were the only party capable of giving the west prosperity. The chairman informed the audience that Mr. Nickerson would be pleased to answer any questions, and Mr. R. Armour asked him what the possibilities wore for the grain elevator under construction at Prince Rupert. Mr, Nickerson, in reply, went into details regarding grain rates and stated that everything hinges on the grain charges made by the government. If the government charges 1 oent per ton, and the harbor tax of 6 cents, as is prevalent in Vancouver can be eliminated, a big tonnage of grain should eventually come through Prince Rupert.

Nickerson Sets Forth His Policy and That of Progressive Party Continued from page 2 als voted against the Progressives on a resolution endorsing the principle oil low tariffs, and against the Torys on one of raising the tariff. The party that I. respresent stands for a tariff that will put the development of our natural resources in a position where those engaged therein can meet their competitors in the world's markets. The old parties have played political football with the problem of Senate Keforin for years, and notwithstanding all that Premier King had to say on this question, during the last two years, his oidy solution is to appoint more Liberals. We, however, stand foi1 the principle of an elective Senate. Only Real Exponent Liberalism as exemplified by Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his predecessors has been discarded by the King Government, leaving the Progressive Party as the only real exponent of Liberal principles, who refuse to sacrifice the best interests of • western Canada aud the Maritime Provinces to tbe "inonied kings" of Montreal aud Toronto. Emigration Our stand on immigration is that the successful and contented settler is the natural and best immigration agent, and that it is not in the interests of the country to spend the public money on propaganda and subsidies to immigration and shipping agencies, while our people are emigrating, in such large numbers, to the United States. Vital Local Issues My stand on vital local issues, such as i square deal for our halibut fishermen in their home port, a steamship service for the Island that will have a tendency to establish a fishing and farming population by enabling them to get their produce to market, equal treatment with Vancouver by our railway and steamship line, and all other issues effecting the welfare of this constituency are well known to you. For these principles I shall continue to fight. I will be delighted to discuss all questions in open debate with the Liberal and Conservative candidates, at as many points within the Biding as can be mutually arranged. My election will be carried on mainly by friends who are interested in the welfare of Central and Northern British Columbia. We have uot the advantage of an extensive party organization, therefore, it behooves those who believe that the interests of western Canada can best be served through the Progressive Party to do all in their power to win this election. His conceded by the press and the public that tlie Progressive party will retain the balance of power for the next Parliamentary period as they have during the past four years. Record of Party- Time and money will not permit me to visit all points of the riding, therefore those of you whom I do not see will, I hope, take me on the record of the Progressive Party which has stood for the people.

ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Saturday, October 3, 1925 Stork Opens Campaign With Stirring Speech Continued from Page 1 that it was a source of satisfaction to him that he had been able to hold the friendship of suoh men as George Casey through three political campaigns, and these things helped to compensate for the hard work and worry entailed. This was the third time he had received the unanimous nomination of the liberal party. Since lie had become a member of the House of Commons he had tried his best to keep in personal touch with all parts of tlie riding, but reminded his hearers that the Skeena riding comprised live provincial ridings, and it was difficult to. cover this vast territory as often as he wished. The Skesna riding was as large as England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and Switzerland combined. Mr. Stork stated that he had lived in British Columbia for the past 36 years, and the latter 17 years had been spent in the north. Looking back over that time he could see improvements in every district, and in spite of what tlie opposing party said, it must be admitted that we are progressing, not so fast, perhaps, as some would like, but still we are making good steady progress. In regard to national affairs he stated that when the Mackenzie King government took office, they were saddled with a debt, left by tlie Meighen government of 250 billion dollars. The interest on this money alone totalled $140,000, 000 each year, and this had to be paid before any money was available for other purposes. . In referring as to why an election was being held at the present time, he said that the government did not have a working majority, and rather than submit to the dictation of the progressives, who supported them when their wishes were gratified, the government decided to go to the people. If the liberals do not get a good clear working majority during this election, it has been decided to again dissolve parliament until this object is attained. The last parliament comprised 235 members, composed of 118 liberals, 65 progressives, 50 conservatives, and 2 labor members, and tlie new parliament will comprise 245 members. In order to obtain a working majority the conservatives must necessarily make a gain of 75 seats in addition to holding those they already have and the speaker said he was at a loss to see where they would get them. Quebec had 65 members and everyone was a liberal. They may pick up a few seats in eaoh province he said, but it was impossible foi' them to acquire 75 additional seats. In regard to the Progressive Party, Mr. Stork said they were dying. During the last election they had 125 candidates iu the field and during the present contest they had placed only 54, they are therefore not expected to again control the situation. Although the Progressives were dying in other parts of Canada, it was comical to see Mr. Nickerson, he said trying to inject life into the dying oause in the Skeena riding. Mr. Forke, leader of conservatives had never asked Mr. Nickerson to run. Some men, said the speaker, who had a mania for getting into office, didn't seem to care who they run down so long as they got into power, He said that Mr. Nickerson had stated that if he ran Mr. , Bushby would be elected, and the speaker. believed that an understanding had been reached between the two in an effort to defeat himself. He said that contrary to statements made by Mr. Nickerson that he was a liberal, it was found that he had supported the conservatives in 1917 and again in 1921. Mr. Stork gave a detailed account, of his stewardship during liis term of office, and showed how tlie public money had been spent in the; riding, and also how the lap fishermen were being elimi- lated. He also went into details regarding the C. N. Railway, the I'l'inoe Rupert grain elevator, and other projects of local interest, lie severely scored Mr. Nickerson for insinuating that ho had double crossed the fishermen of Prince Rupert, and defied any man to prove he was a double crosser. It was something he had never done, and didn't intend to start at his stage iu life.
