The frame work and inside walls are being built of the lumber from the dismantled scows which landed the huge consignments of freight brought down river by the Glair lirm this summer. The lower floor on Third street is taken by Messrs. Williams, Murdoff & Gething, the well known Vancouver realty firm having taken Mr. Gething into partnership. Several new buildings are being erected on the Prince George town- site already.

The big theatre was well tilled, and the large amount raised by tha bidding arrangement covers all the outstanding obligations of the fire department. A statement will be issued shortly showing what has been accomplished and what equipment the town now has on hand. The event largely owes its success to the efforts of M. C. Burr, a local real estate man and one of those interested in the Fort Georgo Theatre.

Published by the Northern Interior Printing Company, Limited J. B. Daniell, President. Devoted to the Interests of the Fort George District and the Northern Interior of British Columbia. S'lijcriplion $3.00 i Yeir in Advance Adwliiiu Ril« on A»pl.c»,io» THE passing away of James Cowie, a man we will call one of God's best creations, removes from the midst of this pioneer settlement a man amongst men. James Cowie was a friend of all mankind, and was by all men beloved, for the qualities which endeared him to those with whom he came in contact were rare indeed in these modern days. A man born in the Shetlands, from whence the Hudson's Bay Company has always drawn the greatest of its officers, James Cowie entered their service and lived from that day on to do his share towards the traditional aims of the" great trading concern. Imbued with the famous "esprit de corps" of the company, James Cowie lent, in his life, through unswerving loyalty and devotion to duty, a large quota of the dignity and greatness traditional to the service of the Adventurers of England trading into Hudson's Bay. There are men scattered all over the face of Canada who will recall many a kind action of the old gentleman who has passed from his last post on the long journey. The writer, who served under the deceased in the service of "the company," can recall many nights in the old log house, in the days when the name of Fort George signified nothing but James Cowie's fur-trade post, when the genial and dignified old gentleman would do his best to entertain the trappers, engineers or pioneer settlers who happened to be at the post on business. They were great days, and in the annals of the pioneers the name of James Cowie is indelibly linked with their dearest memories of those strenuous times. And so there passes from amongst us another great pioneer. A man much of whose life has been lived for the service of a company in the remote hinterlands and the waste places where Indians hunt for their furred quarry. Gone upon the journey whence no traveler returns, James Cowie leaves behind him a record of a life well lived and a duty well performed. ^HE journalistic jackal of Saturday Sunset fame, John P. McConnell, is again casting covetous eyes at the Cariboo, which he regards as a constituency which offers the line of least resistance in the provincial legislature for himself as a Liberal candidate. The Vancouver journalist was a visitor to Quesnel last week, extended his skirmishing tour to Barkerville, and on returning to Quesnel he dallied not to journey hither but beat it to the south again, passing up the most important section of his would-be "constituency." Some years ago, when John P. McConnell needed the money so badly that he entered into a boosting campaign for certain green-goods men in this section, and inadvertently became embroiled in a turmoil of criticism which led him to libel many highly respected and honorable gentlemen, he printed many statements about the Fort George section which time and development have branded as hopeless misrepresentations, told for a purpose, and the reason for their telling is well known throughout the Cariboo. McConnell had better stay in Vancouver and assist Mr. Bowser to re-election by his continued vituperation. JN a recent issue of the Victoria Times, the organ of an ex-minister in the Laurier government, appears the following statement, made by a man just out of the Burnaby jail, and delivered to the press from Vancouver Rescue Mission: "The prisoners," he said, "in Burnaby lie on iron beds without any mattress and are fed on mush. I have soldiered in India and South Africa and never saw the like of it. An uncivilized Kaffir would give another Kaffir a mattress to lie on. They have men from Fort George in for six months for paltry offences that would get them ten days in any other country. It costs the government about $1000 to take them first to Soda Creek by boat, then by automobile to Ashcroft, then by train to Kamloops, then train to Burnaby, and they are finally dumped into Vancouver broke. They refuse to send their blankets and clothing with them." It must naturally be supposed that prisoners, as a class, will endeavor to vituperate the minor courts Whether the sentences imposed here are exorbitant is for the Minister of Justice to decide, but it is our impression that sooner than go to the expense of sending men to Kamloops the stipendiary magistrates, justices of the peace and judge of the County Court here often impose "ghter sentences than the offences warrant in order that in tne local jan. As we have claimed in these columns during the past several years, as a business proposition the province should establish a provincial jail in this section. The saving in the transportation of prisoners in a few years would warrant the expenditure alone, and the many occupations which the prisoners would perform would further justify the necessary amount in the next estimates of revenue and expenditure. /f= =^ Ritchie & Clark : i JEWELERS : : .

Not because we are the pioneer merchants of this city, but purely on tccount of our prices, treatment and the merit of our goods. When we came to Cariboo first the Fraser river was merely a stream. The Nechaco had just been dug, In those days Fort George was lying in embryo, waiting to be fertilized by the industries and population of a great city, and the Ken- nedy-Blair Co., Ltd., was unborn. Since then we have watched all three grow to maturity. The Fraser a great river; South Fort George budding into a great city; and The Kennedy-Blair Co., Ltd., into a great mercantile firm. We mean to keep pace and be a credit to our city, and realize that in order to do so we must be consistent and treat our customers on the square.

"I do not think that anything that has been said about Canada equals the demonstration of the facts themselves," The distinguished writer waa much impressed by the many changes noticed since a former visit oyer twenty years ago. The new tariff law of the United States is considered to be most favor-1 able to British Columbia, and in fact to all Canada as well. Lumber, coal, fish and wood pulp are the exports of this province chiefly affected, and all these will have a better chance in the Amen.an market. The tariff, it is thought, will stimulato trade and be of mutual benefit to both countries. Vancouver is making plans for the 1916 convention of the American Min- ing Congress, and in connection with it > great mining exhibition at Hastings Park during three months of that year is being discussed. This will be a splendid advertisement of British Col- umbia'a mining resources. Mining experts of the continent would be shown '"•''"':•' mineral from salt to platinum all I'i'-i.i-o.l in thia province. Confidence in British Columbia seems 'o prevail in London for during the PM week municipal bonds of Vancouver to the value of $2,240,000 were Purchased there as soon as put on the market. They were taken at 95 »nd bear interest at 4 1-2 per cent. A somewhat larger block of Vancouver bunds was taken in the same market last July. Livestock growers of British Colum- ™» will he invited to exhibit at the Panama Exposition in San Francisco in !'J1' A big stock show will be a feature of the fair, and the Progress Club °f Vaneouver will try to interest breed- er9 "f the province so that thoy will ■"ike a good showing.

At Smithers, the new "'vision point, a big demonstration was hel'i when the first passenger train PuUad into the town. A population of 20,000,000 within ten years for Canada was the prediction made in a London speech by Premier McBride of British Columbia. He spoke in a most optimistic Vein of the development in store for the country when the new railways, the Grand Trunk Pacific, the Canadian Northern, the Pacific Great Eastern and the extensions of the C.P.R. system are open.

McKenna, of Edmonton, in company with his partner, C. D. Melville, left Edmonton, arriving at Atliabasca to go on a canoe trip of 1,300 miles into the wilds of the north country. They went by way of Wabiscaw to Fort Vermillion, tlicnce to Peace River Crossing, (Jrouard, and then back to civilization. They started on their lonely but interesting journey from Athabasca on July 26th. going first to the Pelican and then northward up the Pelican river to Sandy lake, following Sandy Lake into the Wabiscaw Lakes. The country is under watte pretty well all the way, so they got through with the canoe without much difficulty. At Wabiscaw they srfcured a number of good snapshots of Indian dances and other views. They followed thc Wabiscaw rivcr to its junction with thc Loon river, north of the 75th, and went down Loon to the Peace river below Fort Vermillion. Back of tbe Buffalo Hills there is some of the finest land anyone would wish to see, and there is no better in the north country. Down the Loon river the country is similar to that on the Wabiscaw, except that there are many indications of minerals, Including sulphur and iron, which at the mouth of the Panny river, which is a tributary of the Loon, there are many indications of tar sands, already two claims have been staked. They had a sample of sulphur in crude form and also a sample of water from the same place. The water is so full of sulphur it is impossible to drink it. The distance from Wabiscaw to Peace River, at the mouth of the Loon river, is 32 milea, and in this distance there is a drop of 900 feet with numerous rapids along the route and three portages, most of them small ones. While the Peace River at the mouth of the Loon is a mile to a mile and a half across, the banks are only 50 feet high and gradually rise from this point to 800 feet high at Peace River Crossing. Arriving in Vermillion Aug. 26 and resting two days they had excellent opportunity of studying the country in and around Vermillion. The Vermillion district is exceptionally fine for agricultural pursuits and ranks second to none in the nortb. The farm of Sheridan Lawrence is worthy of special mention, where he has raised this year 300 bushels of wheat, which averaged 18 bushels to the acre. Mr. Lawrence has a flour and saw mill and many other modern improvements, which are lacking in many of the more settled districts of Alberta and the west. | Vermillion was left behind on August 28th, and they crept their way up the Peace River to the crossing, which point was reached after 12 very strenuous days of paddling. They continued their way to Grouard, thence to Sawridge and down the Little River to the Athabasca and on to the Landing, doing the whole distance of 1,300 miles in a little lesa than two months.

The rocks in these rapids, which are about 130 miles north on the Athabasca rivor, have been an obstruction to navigation always, and many have been the difficult passages over them by parties with boat and canoe. There has also been numbers of fatalities at this place, Bome of which have never been brought to light. The thousands of tons of freight which leave Athabasca every year for the great north country, some of which goes right to the Arctic ocean, have to be portaged several miles around this dangerous waterfall, nnd the announcement that Grand Rapids is to be made navigable and safe will be welcome news to all, especially to those who have to travel north.

Thev started out to walk from naesnelto Fort Fraser packing S own grub, blankets, rifle „rl some 100 rounds of ammu- '■*_•,.„ When they got to Black- Lter'they took the wrong road ,;d headed for Fort George. When they came within 7 miles 0f Kort (Jeorge they thought they were far enough out of their way so they took the Nechaco road' turning down to Mud River at Slim Miller's. John Loxton was not closer to Fort George this summer. When they got to Fort Fraser ! where John Loxton had bought a j ]0t and made one payment on some acreage some distance out, they were pretty well played out. He was well pleased with his lot; had bought it for $200 and the lot next to it had sold for $600. Next day they started out to look at his garden plots, but never reached them, as they had no guide and there was no well- beaten trail. John Loxton was sadly disappointed in this country. He didn't run across the big game he expected in these parts. His feet got sore, the weather was very warm, and the sweat poured off John Loxton on the trail. When he left Quesnel it was a pleasure trip he started on. When he got back to Quesnel he had done the hardest month's work he had done for years. John Loxton was a detriment to the party lie was in, and men of John Loxton's stamp are very little use in any new country. Yours truly, John McFie. Nechaco, Oct. 2, 1913. Captain O. J. Newcombe, mas- the packet St. Michael, which arrived from the mouth of the Yukon, brings word of a rich gold strike made on a stream running into Palta Slough, one of the most travelled steamer channels on the Yukon river, 200 miles above St. Michael and 50 miles below the Russian mission. The scene of the strike proper is a stream 18 miles long, called Wilson creek. The tundra is seven to eight feet deep, similar to the Nome country. Newcombe says men were taking out $30 a day to the rocker. He said he had seen several with full pokes offgold. The strike was made four or five weeks ago. When his steamer passed there nineteen days ago fifty men had staked claims, The same crowd also staked smaller streams nearby called Disappointment and Independence. NOTICE.

Minister of Lands, anas Department, Victoria, B.C,, 22nd September, 1913. novl 1 a button in the White House, blew up the Gamboa dyke in the Panama canal and removed the last practical obstacle in the great inter-oceanic waterway. A little electric spark, originating when President Wilson pressed the button, sped more than 4000 miles overland and under water, ignited the immense charges of dynamite and virtually cleared the Panama Canal. Electrical experts calculated that within four seconds after the initial impulse the current threw a small switch at the Gamboa dyke, which in turn set in motion other apparatus, furnishing the current which exploded the charges. The storm that devastated Nome wiped the town of Solomon entirely off the map. Not one building of any sort in the settlement, which had a population of 300, remained standing after the gale. It is reported all the inhabitants escaped with their lives when the town was blown away. The town of Solomon stood on Norton Sound, forty miles east of Nome, on the Solomon river. It was the cous- terminus of the Council City and Solomon River railway and a supply point for the Solomon River and Casa de Paga mining district. TAKE notice that E. H. Livingstone and W. H.
