tweet a point either iu diatriet lpt
4611,- pr in district lot 011, ami tbe city

Tlie proposal was embodied in a letter from Mr. B. W. McLean, wbo wrote
pn behalf of tbe aforementioned company, lie requeitod that, iu consideration of bis buildiug a slip at one of
tbe (wo points stated abovo the couucil should acquire a right-of-way

at whicii it ii propoied the ferries
■hall call lie in diatrict lot 204, aud
somewhere in tbe vicinity of Roche

Tbi wh.de situation bad apparently
been controversially drained in committal, for with very littlo parley,
i'nun. Bridgman moved the following
resolution:
"Tbst- tbe council uso its beat on

all thp necessary purposes to the pro
posed Secoud Narrowi Kerry Co.,
and thit tbo council approve tho de
igni of tbe uid company to establish

Thii resolution wai formally carried.
It yai further moved by t'oun. JjouIi!

The Board of Ferry Pirocten met
yesterday aflernoon, Mayor McNeisb
presiding.
Letter,', were read from the local
Board of Trade and from the Rate
payer!' Association, tbo former disap
proving of the Tin foot right of way pro
position, snd the Istter pointing out
tbst tbeir delegation bad "emphatically "declined to commit themselves" iu
the discussion of tbe pverbead bridge
matter.
Certain of the delegates were again
present, augmented by Aid. Smith,
president of the Board of Trade.
Aid. Smith said be bad gone care
fully into Ibe whole matter, particularly witk regard tp tke Tin fool right-
of-way, and be considered sucb a pro
position would prov.' detrimental to
ferry puiaafen, since tbo granting
of tbat right-of-way wpuld mean lhal
an immense amount of freight trallic
would come off tbe Uren.l Trunk wbarf
and congest tbeir own trallic. De wu
of-the opinion thst tbe subwsy, passed
by the railway commissioners, would
be quite sufficient to take rue of ill
the passenger traffic.
Msyor McNeiih, in replying, said
that 'I" directorate wished to bave
the co operation pf the citiiens in this
matter. De thought tbore were several features wbicb required clearing
up. For instance, he bad read in tbe
newspapers lhat Mr. Philip hsd msde
s statement to Ihe effect thst he be
llevcd "then must be something behind it sll." Ilf (tke mayor) u
sured those preient tbat the director
sis were u desirous si say other re
prssealalivc body ef serving the host
interests of the citizens of North
Vancouver. When s member of s body
msde sucb s remark U tbe ono be bid
quole.l, he comldsnd tbst the rest
of tke body should lake immediate
itepe to pat a pep '" thai sort of
thing tke newlpspen get hold of it,
witk tbe result tkat a lot ef nonsense
li published. V
Aid. Smith's cemment wu tkat
"Ini people complained of not getting tbi news; Ikon tbey compleiucd
of getting it."
Mr. W. 1. Irwin at once proceeded
tp explain Mr. Philip. He believed
tbst the remark bsd only reference
to tin negotiation* of tke Ursu.l Trnuk
witk tki besrd, snd did not in sny
raft? tp tke ferry directorate. Tke
b*J|af wu tkat in making over lhat
Wfool right-of-way tn tbe ti. T. P.
W
tbey wero not getting a sufficient
"quid pro quo."
Mr. I j. Walts lioi.ev endorsed this
view.
The mayor also made reference to
Aid. Smith's remarks duriug a session
of lbc council, one being "Ibat he
kept in touch with public matters."
Such insinuations almost mado Dis
Worship wonder whether be were ac
i nully mixed up witb something that
be was not aware off
Aid. Smith said emphatically Ihul
it was bis opinion yet that tbe C.P.R.
and tbe Q.T.P. would squeeze them oul
of the landing. Do inquired us lo
what was being done about the sub
way, for which all preliminary arrange
incuts bad been made.
A dialogue Ibon ensued belween fbe
msyor Slid Aid. Smith, duriug which
it transpired tbat the Railway Commissioners had given permission for the
construction of the subway to< the
city ef Nortb Vancouver, so Ibst Ibe
ferry .directum really bad nothing lo
do wilh it.
Aid. Smith: "Then it is up to tbe
city couucil lo take Ihe mailer up.
Dou't you think something ought to
bsve been douo towsr.ls further
infill"
He reminded the mayor thul Dis
Worahip wu a member of both bodies.
"Why should it not be pushed
abcadf" be penisted. "It's Ibe solution to the whole question."
Mr. II. C. Wright pointed out that
wbal tbey bad applied for was torsi
porary relief. Th,at wu quite with
in Iho jurisdiction of lbc ferry com-
mision. Mr. Wright also emphuized
Ihe point that they had not initially
approached the direclon to expreu
auy opinions or agree to anything
Tbe msyor could notirid bih mind of
that suggest ion that "there wu
sometbing behind it all." He de
scribed it u the "nasties! slur*lhal
could bo imagined."
Mr. Jease Williams msde sn explanatory speech during which it wu
pointed out thst tbe ,'tO-foo! couceiien
might terminate en six monthi' notice
from either parties. It uemed lhal
there, wu a luppeiition abroad tbst
Ike proposal wu to give s permeuent
grant in return for ( temporary con
cesilon.
Mr. Wrigkt ultimately suggested
tkat a public meoling be beld io tbtt
the thing might be thoroughly threshed
out.
It wu agreed tbst tbe suggestion
wu a good ono. Arrangements for a
public meeting are therefore befog
nude and it li esrnestly hoped it will
mark tke close of tbe period of cross
purposes wbicb bu prevailed io eon
section witb ferry matters of late.

Montreal—A" hew function has just
been addod to tlie many which the
Montreal police are called upon to ler
form. Tbeir newest duty consists iu
teaching polilen.'Ht to tlie main inliab
itants nf the city. The reform bu
been introduced whuru it undoubtedly
was most iico.lc.l nl tho down town
transfer points st six o'clock In the
evening. The congestion Bt these
points evory evening at Ihe rush limn
is iiiie.|ii:ill.-il and has aroused the air
gor and disgust of those who havo had
occasion to witness it. In tbo rush
uf tba thousands of home goors for
seats |n (be uptown bound cars men
and women have been trampled upon
and frequently serious injuries have
occurred. The waiting crowd hM
swarmed ovor tht can before thoy
came to a stop and in tho mad con
test women naturally had little chance
to secure seats. Inspector l.oggatt,
wbo bai charge of the tnouute.l police
and who is the virtual head of tho traf
Ac squad, determined to change this
sta|e of affairs. For tbe psst fen
ovonlngi he hai lined up his men al
the crowded corners where tracks in
lersect, and compollod the crowd In
wait until the cars come lo a stop ho
fors altempfiup to board Ihem ami
then haa given tho women thu Arsl
chance jp secure seats. As a result
many men who have been accustomed
to "hogging" seals havu riddun home
hanging to a strap, while Ibo ladies
have receive.! tho cuurtesy due them—
although a pronouncedly forced courtesy
Montreal's public is "dead sick" of
her inadeipiato street ear servicu and
hopes and prayers arc going up on all
bauds that Ihe proposed gigantic merger of all thu lines «u Ihe Island of
Montreal will help a little. This is
nol likely howovur, and, when thu new
corporation has finished paying up in
tereit charges, bond indebtedness ami
so oil it will have nuthlng left in the
treasury lo hsn.l nut for improvements.
The hsr.l working man of tho slreei
is commencing lo think that thu best
way out of it fur him is to walk until
he has saved enough car tickets In
buy an automobile.
Bleb Harvest Doming
As Ibe largest consumer of i ■•■..I.-i u 11 -.
in Ibe country, Ihis cily is ueniiincly
i oiiceiii.il over Hie prospect of another
season of high prices for ull kinds uf
moat products. At first there was a
disposition to decry the necessity of
any decided advance in ruluil prices
and to attribute the threat of higher
rates to the operaliou of the beef Imst.
As tho reports of a genuine scarcity
of high grsde csllle ami other meal
animals have eontiuued to come iu
from all parts of the country, however
and have been reAcclcd in the actual
advance of wholesale prices, tho public
has become convinced tbat it muit
soon pay more for its daily roast or
go without. As a ten ptr cent, ad
vaneo in prices will add nearly a tlll'l,
mil) a day In Montreal's meal bill,Ihe
prospect of an increase thst msy
isiniinnl lo twice this sum is a serious
one for most citizens. One clue Ihut

investigation of lbc storage home*
ihows that tbey are carrying far more
than their ordinary quantity of tho
ordinary supplies of Ash, poultry aud
eggs that have been, pouring into this
market iu the past two months. They
are fully stocked with (dies* products
aud are looking forward to a corros
pou.lingly rich harveet. ll is estim
slid tbat witbis tbe put few weeks
moro than a million dozen eggs have
gone into storage, while poultry ie being received at the rate of l/ywij Ibi.
daily aud much of it ii being taken by
tbe same interests. More Ash are aald
to be hold in cold storage tban over
before ia the hietory of Ihs city. Ai
a result of present condition! it il
confident ly predicted by the storage
men that the country will have to rely
upon tbem in greater mtuure tban
ever before for iti food supppliei during tbe coming winter. Mennwhil.'
the state official* are planning to give

VEB ISLAND
A powerful syndicsle of British cap
italists hu made arrangement for
tlie erection of a large cement works
on Saanich Arm, Vancouvar Island
opposito tbe sits of Todd Intel, where
the works of the Vancouver Portland
I'emniii Company are located.
Tho enterprise, which obviously promises much for tbe upbuilding of the
"i'iInin portion of Vancouvor Island,
has been in process of initiation for
upwards of a year and hu now reach
ed tho stage when definite plane have
been formulated toward! Ita culmination.
Proportion aggregating about one
hundred acres are said to have been
acquired. Tbo company will pes-
snsi about s mile sad a naif of water-
fronliigu ami thus will bavo excellent
shipping facilities.
I| is said tbat ths plaut will have a
daily capacity of 3,UIM1 barrels, That
Ihe market for content produced in
Hrilish I'liliiinbiii is conitsully growing is shown by tho fact tbat during
the past season thero have been imported to meet Ibo requirement!, np
luss than 300,000 barrels, hsuco it is
dear that tho new company will start
business wilb an assurance of a ready
market for Iho output,
Thero is a now science called mnemonics which is trying to get itself Intro-

INDIAN MISSION FOBE8HOBE
Tbe city of Nortb Vincouver has
recently been confronted by out of
the most serious situations wbicb have
heretofore developed, or which ire likely to develop it toy future tint, relative to the protection of itt natural
advantages In tbe reported alienation
through perpetual lease, of a portion
of tbe foreshore in front of Ibe Indian
Uissiou.
The liislian reserve known is the
"Mission" occupies ipproiimtleiy iti
teres, ill of which lies within the
I,..un,lanes of the city The reserve
possesses i witerfrsntsge of about
2,IWU feet on Burrird Inlet This
valuable foreshore stretches from Forties Avenue on tbe east to Bowicke
Avenue ou tbe west In other words,
tho eastern extremity of tbe foreshore
in question is only 1,700 feet west of
l.nus.lsle Avenue and is therefore sit
uated in s most central location for
ill public purposes.
t
Under tbe aineudment to tbe Indian
Act, frumc.1 during tba list session of
the Dominion bouss under the Uurier
regime, this city may proceed to ex-
propriste the mission property is soon
as the populstlon thereof shil) ittain
ti.nnn Inasmuch as Ihe population is
approximately 7,000 at tbe present time
it is quite evideut tbat the day is not
distant at which the way will be clear
for the city to avail itself of these statutory provisions sud to tske over the
reserve.
With tbe ownership of tbe property
tbe coutrol of tbs cutiro stretch of
2,000 feet of foreshore would likewise
psss iuto Uie hands of Ua eity Ir.
asmurh as the only foreshore it pre*
cut owned by tht city consist* of *
number of slreei ends, whose practical
usefulness for public purposes is great
ly restricted bsc*use of ths fact tbit
tbey tre of nirrow widlb lud widely
lepirsled from each other, the value
therefore to tbe city for public purpos-
ei of au unbroken stretch of l,n>m feet
of foreshors, situated iu the heart of
the city is inestimable in view of tbe
needs of tbe city tbat is to bs,
Wheiefore lay occurrence tbtt
would dtprive tbt city of tbt privilege
of securing possession of this fore
.bore assumes well nigh the magnitude
of a public disaster, ,
Tbe granting of leasehold righis I.,
toy portion of this foreshore in fay
vor of any individual would st once
confront the city with tb* probable
loss of this wslerfroutsgs la il* en
lirety, inasmuch is the procuring of
s vsiuiblC lease of tbis nature by sn
individual would, without doubt, be
followed promptly by similar ipplira
lioni from others; and a precedent hiving thus beta sstsblishsd, Ihere would
he absolutely no ground for refusing
■iniilsr privilege* upon similsr roii.li
nous to surrtsslvs applicant* iu th*
order is wbicb their appHralions would
be received. Th* result would there
fore be Ibat leases rovsring th* entire
3,000 feet woui.l speedily lad their

thus entailing incalculable loss to the

It has left us with thousands of suits and overcoats that we ought not to have so late in
the year. This great stock must be moved-at once. So, on Saturday, we

giving military orders, said, "Let us

the formula on the board. Thus on
the sensitive piste of memory, in Kve
hundred young minds, Ibe purls lhal
gn lu make a perfect prayer were im

Oflcn the thing reipiesled is palpably

It may bu that, in tho delay and tbe
consequent persistans* uml importunity
required, that stale of mind and heart
is developed which will make the best
use of the blessing when ot lenylh il

tor iu human affairs. Things runic fo
pass through prayer that ollierwise
never wuuld transpire. If Nehemiah
had .inly wept, his tears would have
availed nothing. He prayed, and hia
name stands nest to that uf Zeruhh-
abel as having supplemented and cun
served his work, for the temple, without the wall, could nol have stood until Iho Hhiloh came, (llorious achievements are the outcome of deep feeling.
Nehemiah's emotions fairly chiseled
hjs face. If bis-bad boen a mere pass
iug and seutinicntai regrot at tho forlorn condition of Jerusalem, he would
nevet have beon thu honored instrument of I'miiilrim,' iu the rearing of

mooting. They bad com, Ihere to ap
point a committee to act fpr tka r*sl'
donts and ratepayers for wards one and
two »f Wast Vancouver, »nd inset tbe
committee of tbs two councils to ad'
juat mattors relating to the division
of tbs municipality.
Thereupon, wltb P briskness wbicb it
ii hoped will characterize tbe meet
ingi of th* council wbsn formal), tbe
following wsra duly nominated to form
tbii adjustment committee: Messrs.
Charlei Nelion, /. 9. Matberi) 8. dint-
zliurger, /, Aleiander, /. ], Hanna, W.
i. Irwin and A.K. I.i.l.llo.
Mr. Olntiburger endorsed tbs view
whereupon Mr. W. W. Loheaui moved
that the adjustment committee aa ap
pointed be authorised by tbe aseein
bled ratepayers to aet for tbem in ell
matters that may arise between tbe
adjustment committee and tbe commit
teei appointed by tha two councils,
and that this committee shall report
to future meetings of tba ratepayers
for their endorsement before any matter proceeds to legislature.
Tbis motion wai formally secon.le.l
and carried.
Mr. Mather* inquired ae to tbe period of tims which would elapse before
the division could take placo. Could
it lie dona before tbe election!.
The chairman replied tbat tbii wu
uot poiiible. Tbey would have to go
before tbe provincial bouie as Victor
ia, and other formalities would have lo
ba attended to, io tbat ba did not
think tbey would get Into definite
shape until tbe beginning of April.
On tbe whole, be believed tbera would
not be much difficulty in tbe way as
they were not going to aak for anything that tba rait of tbe municipality
would be unwilling to give.
The question wa* ratted ai to wbat
percentage of property owner* tbey
had lucceided in getting on to thair
petition.
Mr, Nelion'i reply wu 70 per cent,
Some of the larger property owuen,
while net completely lupportiug tbem,
did not actually oppose tha Idea.
Further, Mr. Nelion aaid the liabilities of the municipality were ,300.000
but be did not think tbey would be
in any way liable for more tban a third
of that ium. In answer to a queatioo
raised by Mr. Aleiander, the chair
nmi. observed tbat Ihey had now as
much alienable property in tbe west
ai the whole nmiilolpallty bad Ave
year, ago,
A.J this point Uf. John Prvs) mII-
ed tbs OlPetinp'e attention to >yfce fact
that wh.cn the city wss liienrporaM

more to say, save that "When yonug
men set up housekeeping on their own
the only thing tn do is to bid tbem

It was then formally resolved that

silence now In many Scottish hemes.
The footsteps of the young folk no
longer clatter up from the village

grown up Into tall men and women, and they have listened to tbe
voice which ll calling away tbe sturdiest sons and the tallest lasses in Scotland. Tbay have followed the callaml

with clasped bands hugging remembrance which is a co|d snd ghostly
thing.

Ho thia s, .itii..I, emigration is not a
new talc. It goes back to tbe unfolding of the modern world. Vet the talc
now bus reached a new and startling
chapter. For during tbe past fow
years this tide of emigration from
Scotland has swelled and broadened
into a great, rushing,. jmpotuoua torrent, The sons of Scotlaud aro leaving
Ibeir native toil not ilngly, but iu
battalions. Tbo new cemus reveals a
desolated country wltb deserted vil
luges and abandoned parishes. Even
iu Ihe towns the artisans aro leaving
Iheir factories and besieging the emi
gralion oAices for cheap passages lo

There are amazing figures which wili

of Scotsmen who havo pride iu their
