Premier McBride, interviewed in Vancouver on his return from this section, stated that: "The reports concerning the fertility and tremendous possibilities of the Fraver river country are not exaggerated one-iota." The Premier praised the vastly improved transportation methods on the Cariboo road, and on the Fraser river. Travelling conditions were he said "equally as good and comfortable as in either Vancouver or Victoria." Remarking on the healthy rivalry between this town and the Fort George townsite Hon. Mr. McBride said there was bound to be a large town here as it is more than likely that the railroad will establish a divisional point which will inevitably create a busy centre. When asked as to the location of the Government offices, the Premier stated that the site had not yet been chosen but that a decision might be j expected at an early date. Hon. Mr. McBride seems to be thoroughly satisfied with the results of his trip to this section, and [has repeatedly intimated that the Government will ! shortly undertake measures of a progressive I nature to assist in every possible manner within [their power the greater development of the North- Jem Interior. FIRST SCHOOL OPENS FIRST SCHOOL IN FORT GEORGE SECTION OPENS ITS DOORS AT SOUTH FORT GEORGE. On Monday last the first Government school opened its doors to the children of this section, and the fact that sixteen names were entered on the roll during the first day of its existance shows how great was the necessity of such an institution here. The advent of this school provides one more primal necessities of a young city. Without educational advantages for children surely no town can be considered to be worthy of the name, and the fact that South Fort George now boasts of a school which is well attended and admirably presided over both by the principal and the board of trustees give this place a vastly added importance in the estimation of those families which are settling here, and of the many more to come. The school is temporarily in charge of Mr. Cos- grave, a graduate of Princeton University, who volunteered to fill the vacancy until a permanent teacher could be engaged rather than see the opening date delayed. The board of trustees recently appointed is composed of Mr. A. G. Hamilton, Secretary; Mr. James Cowie, and Joseph Boyer, all pioneers of this section. The building at present in use for the school is on Fourth street, and is owned by Mr. Wiggins, of the Northern Development Company here. A proper school house will be built for permanent 'use. W. J. Mackay, of Vancouver, who ran the Tribune here after John Houston had contracted his fatal illness until that paper was purchased by the Natural Resources Security Company, leaves Vancouver for this point on Tuesday, having accepted a position on the Herald. In the reception of the initial number of the Herald by our contemporaries we have noted many and divers opinions. The Vancouver Province natters us by refering to this paper as "a bright. vigorous paper." The "Sunset" of the same city hands us a lemon on page one by suggesting paregoric as an antidote for wind on the stomach. The Journal in Ashcroft compliments the "youthful" editor on his "latest," and so on with boquets and lemons galore. We proffer thanks for the floral donations the lemon givers will receive limes shortly, The only real objection to these criticisms we have to offer is the constant reference by publishers who happen to be have personally acqainted with the editor of this paper, to his age. Because a man does not carry a superfluity of flesh or grow long wooly whiskers some of our antiquated brother journalists regard his opinions too lightly. A discovery of gold bearing quartz and alluvial gold has been made on a creek north of here by a man named McKenzie. At present only the most meagre details are forthcoming as the locator will not give out any information until receiving the results of his assays. $3 per Annum. SUNSET AND NIGHT "SATURDAY SUNSET" AND "SATURDAY NIGHT" CONTINUE TO VENTILATE THEIR V1EWS.OF FORT GEORGE. Toronto Saturday Night prints a pithy criticism on the Vancouver Saturday Sunset's attempt to bolster up the Natural Resources Security Company's townsite proposition on the Nechaco river, which quite disconcerts the complacent and positive printed opinions of''Bruce," editor of the Sunset. We have already expressed "our opinions regarding "Bruce's" articles on Fort George, but for the benefit of our new readers we reiterate some of our remarks which are printed to counteract the extraordinary advertising compaign conducted by the Natural Resources Security Company. This company have a proposition which appears to be technically legitimate •■- they can give good title to every twenty-five foot lot on their thousand odd acres of townsite lands*- but is the advertising department of this concern-'which attracts to their proposition the criticisms which are always based solely on the misrepresentations they print. This advertising department, judging from the literature they issue, is composed of an "all star cast." Its publicity experts lightly work wonderful changes in the topography of the Indian reserve to suit the location of the particular property they are exploiting along its western boundary, changing the location of the G. T. P. across it in a most casual manner, placing it sometimes on a long trestle at the extreme northern end of the reserve and in other instances crossing it near its southern end for the benefit of "Central Fort George," whilst the railroad station, which has likewise undergone a long period of uncertainty of location, has now been settled by some thoughtful ad writer at the north-east corner of the Fort George townsite, We have shown by statistics that the only town- site at this point today where any considerable number of independent business men have settled and are building is at South Fort George on the Fraser river. Bruce was perfectly aware of this fact, when he printed an article calculated to strengthen the hand of the townsite people when trying to retain the site for the Government offices which were awarded to their townsite by an assistant in the Government agent's office, but which were later transferred to South Fort George by the Government agent personally after he had consulted the people regarding their wishes in the matter. Toronto Saturday Night has entered the arena against the Natural Resuorces Security Company's townsites almost from their inception. That paper in the issue we refer to quotes excerpts from a report of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company, which proves many of the statements in the town- site company's advertisements to be extravagent misrepresentations without any basis of truth whatsoever. . And so we have a spectacle of two largely circulated and influential weekly journals fighting, one for, the other against a townsite proposition at Fort George. We have detected in the attacking journal errors of detail which are due to lack of close touch with the local situation and of the journal defending the issue we have written at length to show that the editor, "Bruce," is lighting for a rich corporation against the interests of the public here. The Herald does not care a red cent what becomes of the Natural Resources' townsites. Our only advice to intending purchasers is to investigate personally. We merely wish to keep the name of South Fort George townsite, where the business interests of the Fort George of today are, clear of the mire which contamination with a site that is being attacked in the public press as a "wild cat"- whether it is or not will drag it if the local situation is not fully explained. South Fort George is a small townsite, containing only 147 acres in all, but what it lacks in quantity it makes up in natural advantages which the public are not slow to recognize. A strange contrast to its enormous, but lethargic neighbor a townsite bisected by fifty miles of "streets" with the original name of the old settlement of Fort George corralled by legal proceedure and tacked onto it as an "advertising bulge," and yet, which is unable to compare with this place for population, business houses on the ground, or in natural advantages. RIVER IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED ATTENTION OF FEDERAL AUTHORITIES IS BEING CALLED TO MUCH NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS. Premier McBride has intimated his intention of drawing the attention of the Ottawa authorities to the mu.;'h needed improvements required to aid navigation in the Fort George canyon. The Victoria Colonist last week devoted a whole column to editorial comment on this subject. Mr. Lugrin, the Colonist's editor, during his recent visit t(5 'this section with Premier McBride's party, was able to realize the situation from personal observation. The Colonist draws attention to the constant danger of damage or destruction to boats when passing through this canyon, and shows that the aggregated value of the steamboats now plying on this river is in the neighborhood of $250,000, also pointing out that two of the boats from this valuable fleet are now "hors de combat" from their battle with this menance to life and property. The writer has passed through the Fort George canyon in the winter, and has seen the obstructing reef in the eastern channel standing high and clear of the ice. Rock men with steel and powder could remove this reef in sixty days. The Fort George Canyon marks the very en- tarance into the Fort George district itself. It is rather a rude surprise to our many visitors from the world's centres of population to be crowded to the after end of a steamboat in order that the stern wheel may take a greater dip, and from there to watch the boat fighting its way against the mightiest forces of nature through narrow tortuous channels lined by precipitous rock shores; after travellers have read of the wonderful Fraser river waterway system navagabie for one thousand miles. The blowing out of the reef in the eastern channel would give a straight deep-water channel for steamboats at any stage of the water. No other work would, we believe, be necessary. The writer has passed through this channel at the extremes of both high and low water and has observed that were this obstruction removed much water now deviated through the others would flow through the eastern channel which is now too narrow to give pssage to more than about fifty per cent of the water passing through the canyon. The Minister of Works at Ottawa will doubtless turn his attention to this pressing matter, now that the powers that be are commenting so freely upon the negligencies of his department in regard to this district. Martin Burrell, member for this district, has, we honestly believe, done his utmost to have this work done, but Mr. Burrell, although one of the most fluent speakers in the Dominion House, is "on the wrong side," consequently there is "not much doin'." It is time that the Hon. Mr. Pugsley initiated a movement to clear the Fraser river of obstructions to navigation, not only in the Fort George canyon, but from Soda Creek to Tete Jaune Cache. In two years more the Grand canyon, one hundred miles north of this point, will be navigated as frequently as the Fort George canyon is today, but with a Kreater amount of risk, This work should be carried out during the coming winter and the appropriations should be large enough to do the work thoroughly and well. Neil Gething, a well known land and timber owner, who has operated in Cariboo and the Peace river country for the past seven years arrived from the Stewart river country last week and left Van- cover on Monday. Mr. Gething is applying for permission to prospect for coal and petroleum on a large tract of land on Peace river. Excellent progress is being made on the Northern Hotel here. Al. Johnson expects it to open for business on the first of the month. The building does great credit to this town, and when completed it will rank amongst the finest hotels in the interior of British Columbia. Four young men from New York state, recent graduates of Princeton university who have been looking over the townsite situation here with a view to investment and residence, have decided that South Fort George is the centre of gravitation in this section and have settled here. They intend to enter into business ventures. Htm litUMit KttiRLU PUBLISHFD BY THE NORTHERN INTERIOR PRINTING CO. J. B. DANIELL.

Some of the extraordinary deviations from a newspaper's usual advertising methods are doubtless due to this promoter of publicity. Sometime ago the Tribune issued a wonderful supplement printed in red ink on bond paper advertising the "magnificent" hotel on the Fort George townsite, quite contrary to Section 45, governing the transport of second-class matter through the Canadian mails.
