South Fort George, B. C. Gentlelmen: I beg to acknowledge receipt of your telegram of even date as follows:- "Resumption former mai "causes intense indignation, "mend sorting all mail this "itate speedy delivery to majority "ulntion." and with reference to the same, desire to say that tho change refereed to was made with a view to expedite the delivery of mail for Fort George, concerning which numerous complaints of delays in transmission have recently been received in consequence of its having to pass through the South Fort George Post Office, and I beg to submit that the citizens of Fort George are entitled to at least equal consideration in this respect with the citizens of South Fort (leorge. lt is now a matter of eighteen months since the South Fort George Post Office was established and it is only reasonable to suppose that in such length of time, the citizens of South Fort (leorge have had ample opportunity to notify their correspondents and to have bad their mail properly addressed to South Fort George. If this had been done, the present arrangement should prove the most satisfactory for all persons concerned, speaking, of course from a strictly Post Office standpoint. I feel that in justice to the citizens of Fort George and in view of the recent justifiable complaints, I cannot revert to the former practice of having mail matter addressed to Fort George forwarded pn -South Fort George, which practice of course, resulted in more or more or lefts delay in the delivery of mail for the Fort George office. Very explicit instructions in the matter lime been issued to all Postmasters and railway mail clerks concerned and 1 feel sure that if the citizens of South Fort George will only cooperate with the Department in the matter to the extent of having their mail properly addressed, the difficulty will be overcome", and all cause for complaint speedily removed. Yours tru,v, JOHN R. GREENFIELD. Post Office I nspector. silm^KicFO-'^1'"1^ which' ifdwel°Ped' The abovo letter was received I from Post Office Inspector J. R. Greenfield, of Vancouver. It is a well considered document, biasing its arguments upon red- tapery. We havo every respect for Mr. Greenfield's work in I office, but we also.remamber that he has been here anil is thoroughly familiar with the I circuumstances, and therefore the arguments I.*' puts forward i in justification of his rulings are i flat and insipid. Ho will doubtless remember that the South I Fort George office was the original post office of those parts, and that it was moved here from the Hudson's Bay post, where it was originally established, years ago, for the convenience of the great Canadian. public. That was before the ! postal authorities christened a little two by four suburban jiost office "Fort George" and demoralized the service utterly by insist int;- that all mail addressed to that place, without the prolix "South" should go direct to the suburban office. Does . Mr. Greenfield noi. know that over two thirds of the population of all inhabited townsites here live in South Fori George? The South Fort George office is well handled. It has three distributors. When mail arrives it is sorted quickly ami it can bo answered by return mail. Tbe obvious, common souse method would bo to have the mail inl ended for places beyond this point sorted here and .forwarded. Tho best thing that can be done is to place one post office tit a central point, and got away from this intriguing with wild-cat townsite interests and thoir "equal consideration."

Tlie Foit (Jeorge antl Peace river country will again be represented from the old Cariboo road, unless one of the political aspirants from tho north can prevail upon the majority of delegates in the lower part of th • district at the convention, which seems rather unlikely, for lower, or old Cariboo, is over jealous of the advancement of the now norl horn territory. The government has, of course strong motives for not bringing down the redi. tribution measure. But they are fully ; aware that there are many constituencies in British Columb'a that have outgrown the efli- j oiency of their allotted representation, and never in the history of the province was there a more propitious time for the enactment of a redistribution bill! than now. Cariboo is the largest electoral district in the province. It has been represented by two members since the days wbnn the limitations of its developed area, were then, in comparison to the area now attracting the settler, insu>n'fi- cant.

September 16th., 1411. Dec 9 would set in nml ion Lho proper Hfittlemenl of tlmi country hy means of wugon roads connecting with the witter tributaries of tin' great northern river. I iii" of these tributaries extends from the headwaters of the Peace to wit hin I welvc miles "f the Fraser river at a pninl '^ miles upstream from Fort George, Inn in its present state this route ran only be navigated with difficulty by a canoe, It could be followed by a wagon road unl il navigable water was struck mi i';r Parsnip, a dis- lani'i' of about "ill miles. Again if (lie government were to build a sl i n't but somewhal difficult section of wagon road between a poinl on llie Hie' Salmon river which could he reached by steamboat from the hraser this road, wl iich would he only 20 miles in length, would strike a lake which forms the headwaters of the Parsnip river from wl.i ch point a steamboat could navigate without serious difficulty, lo the western end of Rocky Mountain Portage, on tl.!' Peace, across winch other steamboats could carry lhe traveller, with a few portages en route, clear to the Arctic sea. In other columns the pooule of Stewart Lake advocate the construction of a road from Stewart Lake to McLeod lake, from which point tl o Peace river may be reached by canoe or scow, or with the expenditure of no very great sum by the Federal Department of Works on the Pack river, by small steamboats. Hut none of these, or any similar projects are accomplished. ]f they were British Columbia would be settling the Peace river country today. The actual : Peace River' Hows'for lllll miles from its headwaters, formed by thc junction of two big navig. able rivers, the Peace and the Parsnip, until it reaches th ■ provincial boundary. To the J north and south alone- its course, and back behind the "ill ' mile reserve placed on either' side of the fiver, lie the thousands of miles of land purchased by speculators. 'I'lose interests have paid their good money for thc lands and they are surely entitled to some return in the form uf means of access to th They were purchased, ostensibly, for colonization purposes, but colonizers can not reasonably expect to induce settlement of their lands when th,. pros| t- ive settlers learn that they must crawl in over saw-tooth mountain ranges or risk their lives in dug-out canoes, They want roads, and iu tl.o meantime the land l.i ilders must pay the "Wild Land Tax" of 1>.\ per cent per annum, imposed by the government until the lands sold by (hem are brought under a proscribed slate of Lmpiw ■•■ mant. It looks like a "big- mitt" game to us. Li'her tlie colonization men do nol wish undue investigation of their lands, or else the government prefers raking in ihe Jj-per-cent income to tin' expenditure of revenue on roads to assist in developing the country. We. in South Port George, looking for the trade of the Peace River country, want progress and development. We want (o see the natural routes into the Peace river country opened up by the removal of those few natural barriers that lock the would-be settlers out of the norl hern valleys, and restrict their population to a handful of men wl.i > can run dug out e.uioes through ha I water.
