Saturday, February 3rd. 1912 Till I', board of Trade of the city of Ed- monton appears to lv a heavy- weight iii'Lranizgtion. It is quite alive to all thr clangers that beset its sunny province, ainI it takes active and well adviser! action to compass the destruction of any elements that threaten to besmirch the uilt-eclged credentials that the province oi Alberta lias borne since Provincial Autonomy carried. It is now engaged in trailing the "wild-cats" that trespass within its sphere ni activity, to their lairs, and twistin!_r their long wooly tails. The following is a copy of a resolution pnssed by llu real estate section of the Edmonton Board nf Trade, a short time ago: "That in the opinion of this meeting k'Mation should lx< enacted which will prevent:— ill Any person from offering for sale property in a city or town in the Province uf Alberta, in connection with which there is no registered plan, except however, legal sub-divisions when sold as a v. le ile. vl) iiu- publishing or offering for sale properties of which plans have not been registered. (3) The publishing of plans of sub- divisions in connection with which there is in. key plan showing the distance from the Central l'ost Oflice of such city nr town; or which does not show the contour of such subdivision. This is not intended to prevent, the publishing of a niit|i of the whole of a city or town. A.nl further, that the legislation make it a criminal offence to publish in any newspaper, pamphlet or poster, mis- leading statements or inferences, in connection with the offering for sale of any real .■state. Aid that il, be recommended that no plans of subdivisions within two miles "f il.e present limits of any city or town h" approved by the inspector of surveys ami! it has been approved by the Commissioners or Council of the city or lown near whibb it isi situated.

We inserted tlie material referred to on advices revived immediately before we last went to press. It appears tnaf th'' work of Mr. George ,). Hammond's "Fort George Hoard of Trade" who are trying to impress the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company with the idea that they represent tlie best interests of this vast territory, in requesting information from them, and offering them advice, all of which is carefully calculated to bolster up the promoter's townsites, is now being supplemented by lirst band instructions from the promoter in the Bower block, Vancouver. Wo have to laugh. The Herald has already dwelt upon the absurd petitions circulated by Hammond's agents, requesting the G. T. P. to make a statement about the exact location of the station on the Indian Reserve, and advising them just where it', should be. The Fort George Board of Trade is a galaxy of Mr. Hammond's supporting ring. They were sponsors for the document. Now the promoter has paid run- ers circulating a petition, wliich is addressed to the Railway Commission, further afield. He is sending it way-back into the woods; to the lone pre-emptor and the trapper on his line.. The runners are paid §6,50 a day; their duty is to ask you to sign: DON'T DO IT. Hammond's townsite company have sold some 20,000 lots up the Nechaco River, under misrepresentation. His signature appeaed under statements to the effect that the G. T. P. would locate their depot here closer to his mass of townsites than to any other sub-division. The statement was very probably responsible for the sale of lots, wliich, without, it would not have been sold, and therefore, in the event of his rash statements being proven unfounded, buyers could probably jump on his neck for obtaining their good money under false pretences. The pseudo-public interest thus exposed, shown the self-interest of the townsite promoter, who is trying to get the public to subscribe signatures to a petition calculated to verify his former reckless statements; create for himself a more enviable reputation tlian he now possesses, and smooth a path for him to future ventures, which, however rankly promoted may hope to win out by the combined weight of the mass of people who have purchased property from him under misrepresentation, whose support may afterwards be relied upon in any movement calculated to bring in returns. The very idea that George J. Hammond, the ex-buchet- shop shark, could hitch up an arrangement with the Grand Trunk Pacilic Railway Company, as his iterated and re-iterated statements claim to bo a practically completed compact, to locate the station at some certain point, is absurd. The Railway Commission must pass upon any sites proposed for station purposes, and now The Natural Resources Security Company, of which Mr. Hammond is president, is going to the Railway Commission with an application that requests them to grant certain concessions which the promoter has already laid claims to, AND ON THOSE VERY CLAIMS HAS SOLD PROPERTY. It is obvious that if Geo. J. Hammond wanted the railway station located at a certain point,, to justify his statements that it would be tlkcre, his lirst action would be to lay before the Railway Commission apparently representative endorsation of his application by tlie public interested. This he is now doing, as we have shown. In this district, wc believe, his petition will not be extensively signed but he is sending it to every lot holdrrs on his lists, and if the names of 11 the servant girls, stenographers and day-wage people whose hard cash lias gone into his capacious maw in exchange for some of his '20,000 25-foot lots, under the delusion thut it would eventually make them independently wealthy for life, and so with the expenditure of a little time and money for postage stamps George will surely be able to rig up a pretty fat petition. Tbe moral is, therefore, do not sign any petitions eminating from the Hammond townsite unless it has been indorsed publicly at South Kort George, by the people. The use of the petition in vague frontier countries like this is great, and it should not bo abused. By it the sentiment of the public in remote places, may be conveyed through the great distances to the powers tlmt be for the price of a two-cent stamp. Some men will sign a petition without even reading it, just to be obliging. The Herald begs to prevail upon the people of the country, who have rts bes tin- terests at l«art, not to do so.

If the legislation that they recommend were passed in the province of British Columbia, our penitentiaries would be filled with townsite promoters; the "ad. rooms" of our daily and weekly papers would lay off about fifty per cent of tlwir compositors and make-up men, and a crowd of smooth political crooks in Victoria would he cutting down their living expenses and striving to more thoroughly "cover their tracks." We do n't blame Edmonton for trying to keep her province's gambling money out of such "brace games" as British Columbia wild-cats. There is little more chance of winning out in a large percentage of the "townsite," the "farm land" or the "orchard tract" propositions being offered in New British Columbia today, than there is of beating a crooked, marked-card stud- poker layout run by tinhorn gamblers. Shun them, as you would a leper, unless you have information upon them from some independent source, upon which you can rely. Pass up the sidewalk salesman who buttonholes you, whilst you gaze at his lurid bate "done in oils" behind some plate glass window, unless you know. Remember that whenever one bona-fide proposition "takes hold" with the public there is always a swarm of get-rich-quick men with their counterfeits. Accept no substitutes, as the advertisments say. Remember that the ways of the wildcatter are more or less obvious to the trained observer of his species. He advertises big, and so receives the plaudits of the degenerating press. He puts up,a big, "front", uses good offices, wears diamonds—which he considers a reserve fund—and always has a line of smooth "patter". He will often sidestep direct questions, nnd hates to meet a man from the ground, for him—the sickly smile. Here, in British Columbia, the need of repressive measures bearing upon the wild-cat and its habitat, are not, only urgent, but are imperative. A bounty should be placed upon their heads. When a hunter, more hardy than his fellow sportsmen—who keep along the beaten trails and snipe the small game that crosses their trail—takes to the hills and rouses a she cat in tli3 wilder land behind, the pallid trail-padders in the valleys should gather courage enough to search out the scene of the reports that echo across to them. Not so, however, in British Columbia. The bulldozing, counterfeit-militant press is, in too many instances, a mask to hide the blackmailing, purchasable, slimy principles of the journalistic profligates who stand behind the swindler in his schemes. The laws of our land, governing the passage of newspapers through the mails, will not allow the use of sufficiently strong language to condemn, adequately, the practice of bartering the policy of newspapers for the support of concerns that pay for lies, misrepresentation and the abuse of its enemies. Such papers, however, exist in British Columbia today, and elsewhere. The Herald has ripped and torn at some of these wild-cat promoters for a year and a half now. We drew the veil away from their past. In some instances we found sensational material to back up our statements that the class of promoter who works tho long distance gome was worth watching. We found records of past easy-money work, of swindling and embezzlement, and we told the public to watch them. The profligate, journals that followed in their line said we lied. We were also dubbed "blackmailing publisliers" by a crook, a "Rogue's gallery" picture of whom reposes in our files, and in the fight we,lost much money— for the dear, considerate public. And so, finding Alberta mildly touched by the plaguo of sub-division, Edmonton takes strong measures to purify the atmosphere of her province from such injurious bacteria, Conljllliwl piii'i' 1. i'i,].I. af'P CoiitimitHlmilu"111'1" And British Columbia parsues the even tern r i f its way. The press, at large, is content. Spread betw 'on Hazelton and the Yellowhead Pass lies t1" incompleted line of tho Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. Along this route, far from the beaten t rack of comm ire i, reach :d at present only bj sleigh roads ami trails hundr ds of nidi s in length, lies the habitat of the genus wil<l eat. Promoters, who in lhe lnili il Slati s would be in ih" penitent iary w it h mi hon aire Fl ill-man of Seattle, for using the mails for | urposes of fraud, find the goal of their ambition in this land of promise, northern aud central B. C. It is to t hem II land lh W ing with mills and honey. Public interest is aroused in i he wonderful | ossibilil ies of 11" new rail- w ay belt. They can advert :se as brazenly as they please, and I hey certainly do so. Any land I' al has been ('mw n ((rant id can be chopued up into ditmn- iii ive lots, l h ' governmi nt will take i her quel tor interest, and tho promoter sits n a swell oflice and plans more and mora audacious advertising to catch I he poor sucker, I o chi at the poor widow oil of her mile, and to pil I I he wil s of I heir trained advertising writers against Lhe impressionable incredulty of tho class they victimise.
