It is believed that in the near future British Columbia will far outstrip itself in its mining ventures and results. The country has not been developed as it should have been owing to lack of transportation; but now that this is being rapidly supplied, we look for investment in all British Columbia industries — and especially in the rich field of mining— to increase by leaps and bounds. the owners of the Theatre donated the lights to the cause. • Brown and Fort (ieorge building and Russian People Increase Savings by Prohibition London.—A despatch to Reu- ter's Telegram company from J'eirograd, says that M. Khari- tonoff, comptroller of the Russian treasury, speaking before the duma budget committee, declared that owing to the great increase in national savings, due to prohibition, the extraordinary outlay occasioned by the war as yet had caused no great suffering in Russia. As proof of this, M. Khariton- off said the national savings in December, 1913, which amounted to 700,000 rubles ($350,000) had increased to 29,100,000 rubles ($14,550,000) in December 1914. He added that the total savings for 1913 amounted to 34,000,000 rubles ($17,000,000) as compared with 84,000,000 rubles ($42,000,- I'OO) for 1914. 3J3 WiU Cost Canada $15,000 in Damages Wasliinton.—Under an agreement reached Feb. 1st, the Canadian government will settle claims growing out of the recent shooting of two American duck hunters by Canadian militiamen by, paying $10,000 to the parents of Walter Smith, who was killed, and So,000 to Charles Dorset], who was wounded in addition to all legal expenses, The terms of settlement were arranged by Sir Joseph Pope, under secretary of foreign affairs for Canada, and Representative Charles B. Smith, of New York. The money will be paid to representatives of the families at tbe British embassy.

London.—Interviewed concerning a cable from Wellington to the effect that the New Zealand government had arranged for the purchase of a million bushels of Canadian wheat for delivery next July, Hon. Mr. Mackenzie, New Zealand's High Commissioner, said that lie had been buying wheat since the war started, but this was the largest order. For some years, be said, New Zealand's wheat output had been diminishing iu favor of pastoral industry, and it was likely the Commonwealth would in future have to look more and more to Canada for her wheat supply. The high commissioner acknowledged New Zealand's debt to Canada for ber present efficiency in dairy production. Having recently returned from Egypt, wliere, with Sir (leorge Reid the Australian and New Zealand expeditionary forces were visited, the Hon. Mr. Mackenzie said that the men only regarded their work in Egypt as a preliminary duty. They said they had set out to light the Germans and did not want tb return wit limit facing them. The toll taken by the German submarine U-21 in its raid last Saturday in the Irish Sea in the vicinity of Liverpool still stands at three ships— the steamers Ben Cruachen, Linda Blanche and the Kilcoan, the latter a small vessel. In addition, a (lerman submarine also torpedoed two British steamers in the English Channel near Havre - the Toko Maru and the Icaria, — of which the Toko Maru was sunk. Besides sinking the three vessels, at least six other steamers were chased by her. These include the steamer Graphic, with 100 passengers and a crew of 40, the Leinster and the smaller boats Atreus, Ava, Kathleen and Endymion. All these ve sels escaped in a zigzag flight. A member of the crew of the Toko Maru has arrived in London . . . .. . „ , ....... «... , i erty owners want incorporation and thus describes the sinking of this vessel: |of . & |imjted area afc thia' inir "The officers and crew had-just finished breakfast when the; time. whpn finam,inl Pn^iHnnJwen explosion occurred.

The captain ordered the boats out and in five minutes everyone was away, but saved nothing. The general opinion of the crew was that she had been torpedoed, but no submarine was in sight." How the Leinster narrowly escaped, was told by her captain in the following words: "Rough weather has no terrors for the German submarines.

Open criticism on the floor of the House by Conservative members, also in and about the councils of the party far and near; among the old time members; among the rank and file all over the province — point to a feeling of unrest and disappointment that the Government is not measuring up to its responsibilities and opportunities. These words are not meant unkindly. Sometimes it is best to tell the truth even in our own houses and inner councils. We must know what the opposition is, not the good feeling, if we are to find out our error and mend our ways.

The announcement from Washington that Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador to the United Stales, will guarantee that the cargo will be used only for civilians in Germany has not influenced the British government. If not purchased by the relief commission the Wilhelmina will be conducted to an English port where her cargo, officials say, will be taken over and paid for by the government. The announcement that the former Hamburg-American line steamship Dacia has sailed from Galveston with a cargo of cotton for Germany caused much comment in London, where it was generally believed that the Dacia incident had been closed.

But nevertheless, quiet building is proceeding and plans are being perfected for various buildings and other work to be started in the spring. It has been a noted phenomenon that in the Northern Interior of the Province in preceding years January and February into the middle of March have always been quiet, to suddenly break into activity as spring advanced. Signs are not wanting that this year will be no exception, and despite wars and other conditions now prevailing, by the middle of March to the first of April a change will have come over present conditions that will bring prosperity in abundance to this centre. At this time, those who come in from the outside world are astonished at the better conditions prevailing here compared to other cities of Canada, and the prediction is freely made by the best informed and even the most conservative that Prince George is to be the center of interest and development commencing this spring. Rapid Growth of Social Democracy "Social democracy has sprung up in every country where there is any industrial development to speak of, it is a new movement, being less than 50 years old, and has had an extremely rapid growth, more rapid, in fact, than any other movement of modern times. H is still growing, and although it is receiving consider-1 than tlie waters able criticism at the present 1 part of the world. Canada Leads World in Fish Ottawa.- The government is making vigorous efforts to increase production in Western Canada by bringing vacant lands held by non-residents and specu- i lators under cultivation this coming season. The western cabinet ministers have taken up the matter and through western municipalities have secured the names and addresses of all holders of land not being cultivated, lt is estimated that there are a hundred million acres of land held by non-residents, not under production, outside of lands owned by the railways andthe Hudson's Bay Company, Probably a third of this is held by Americans. Appeals are being made to have this land placed under cultivation. The holders are urged, if they cannot cultivate the land, to endeavor to sell it, or lease it, and plans by which this can be arranged are suggested. Reports received by the immigration department, which is handling this most recent campaign to increase Canadian production, show that many Americans who have had land in the west and hitherto have made no attempt to cultivate it will put their land to seed this season. j Several wealthy Chicago men I have already arranged to take j complete outfits into the west to cultivate idle lands held by them hitherto for speculation. With the present high price of wheat the outlook is that there will be a large American immigration. It is probable that transatlantic liners plying from Canada to England will be advised at an early date to ascertain from passengers to the British IsleB vvheiher they are on definate j business or not and, if not, to i inform them that their presence |is not requested at present in I England. Private advices from England 'circulated in official circles ad- • vance a view that tourists are lout of fashion there at present, and that unless they have some definate object in view they had better stay at home until conditions improve. It is pointed out that every such arrival is an added liability upon the country at large, though they may be a source of profit to transportation companies, etc. Food really needed in all directions is consumed and the price thus enhanced. The responsibilities of the authorities of London are increased perceptably. In the event of a war raid on England 0. Leondon, there is a host of practically idle strangers, whose instinct would be to clamor for protection and means of egress from the islands. In short, the islands are today no place for pleasure-seekers. Conditions, moreover, consequent upon spies and suspicious persons are such that the investigation into the antecedents and purposes of many visitors is entailing a vast amount of work that would be unnecessary if the purely tourist class did not make a habit of coming across. Eve tempted Adam to eat, but she didn't drive him to drink, anyway. BRITISH COLUMBIA HEADS LIST1 The annual report of the department of marine and fisheries for Canada emphasizes the fact that the fisheries of the Dominion are the most extensive in the world, It likewise noted that the water in and around Canada contains the principal commercial; food fisher, in greater abundance of any other: \ ■l ■ t V ■ . i ■■a ■ ',; ' —- - -» t 1 time, 11 will c entinue to gro« because it is the political expression of the needs of the working class." With the foregoing statement, Arthur Beach began a lecture at the People's Forum, Edmonton, last week, on the social democratic movement. Continuing, the speaker declared that wage-earners were compelled to surrender a part of their product to capitilists because competition on the labor market kept their wages down to the minimum of subsistence. This surplus the capitalists used to further the development of new territories, and thus capitalism served a useful purpose. It ought not to be forgotten, however, that the expansion was effected at the expense of the worker. The capital employed in development was first wrested from him in the shape of surplus value. The need of change arose out of the fact that despite the rapid development of new areas, labor markets became glutted, and as far as he could see poverty was going to grow indefinately. Social democracy proposed that society as a whole should repossess itself of the earth and ! ■ the means of production.

Of this total value the sea fisheries contributed $29,472,811, while the inland fisheries contributed 83,734,937. The value of the fish catch by provinces was as follows: British Columbia. $4,308,707, Ontario, $2,674,685. Quebec, $1,850,427. Prince Edw, Island, $1,280,447. Manitoba, $606,272.

Enemy Alien Is Allowed to Sue Montreal.—The right of aGer- [ man or Austrian to take suit be- j fore the Canadian courts has I been maintained by the provin- i cial Court of Appeal in the case of Angelo Viola vs. Mackenzie, I Mann & Co., the Hon. Mr. Justice Lavergne handing down judgment in the name of his j colleagues. Their lordships reversed the findings of Mr, Justice Bruneau. declining to admit the right of an alien enemy, as he 'called the plaintiff, to sue before the courts of Canada. Their lordships of the higher court held that, in the determin- I ing of an enemy, it was residence and not nationality wliich counted. All the judges of the court, live in number, spoke on the case, and their views were to the ; effect that if Canada were to deny to newly-arrived immigrants the right of recourse before the Canadian courts, this would be an infringement of the principles of justice. The chief justice stated that if one were to deny the right of thc plaintiff in the present case, there would be nothing to prevent an employer, for instance, of a German or an Austrian, to refuse to pay his employee's salary. The case was a claim under' the Workman's Compensation j Act. Viola was injured while at work for the defendants and he sued for compensation. Mr, I Justice Bruneau decided that he! had no right to sue because he was a native of a country at war with the British Empire. Inquiry Into Crop Profits Ottawa.--In 1912 the census and statistics office with the aid of its crop reporting correspondents instituted a special inquiry into the cost of grain growing in Canada. The inquiry had reference to the season of 1911, and was limited to five crops: wheat, orts, barley, corn and flax. The results showed that for all Canada the total average cost per acre of the production of spring wheat, oats, barley and flax was between $12 and 813; for fall wheat $13.50, and for corn $22. The value of the produce that year gave average net profits per acre of over 84.00 for spring wheat and oats; $7,00 for fall wheat; 85.60 for barley; 87.33 for flax, and 810.24 for corn. Last spring it was decided to repeat the inquiry for the same live crops as for the season of 1913, because there were indications that in the northwest provinces the profits from grain growing, when unaccompanied by stock raising, were not proving so remunerative as formerly. The result of the second inquiry has been to demonstrate that with few exceptions the cost of production per acre for both 1911 and 1913 is practically identical, Compared by provinces, the largest profit from grain growing in 1913 was apparently made in Quebec. Another noteworthy, point is the profits shown in the! northwest provinces, which is' apparently due to low prices. I ..vu_,un j. ^UlSUNIrJ Hotel North Corner Hamilton & Third South Fort George, B.C.

Consider Canada's Sorrowing Powers As the Best In connection with some recent remarks of Sir George Paish in regard to Canada's borrowing i'aeilities. it is interesting to quote the following: "The impression appears to prevail in Canada that the Dominion will find no opportunity for borrowing loans in (Jreat Britain for several years after the war. This is surely an exaggeration, says the London Financial News. It is true that the amount of money available for investment in Canada and elsewhere may be reduced considerably, and that Canadian municipalities and provincial governments are expected to exercise economy in budgeting for the early future; but it is hardly correct, as has been said, that Canadian borrowers must need go to the United States for future accomodation. "When the war is over there is no doubt that investors in Europe will find ample means of employment of their surplus lunds, and rates of interest will probably be high; but Canadian investments should find favor, inasmuch as the Dominion stands to reap many benefits from the war without having suffered so severely as European countries during the struggle. Canada will have to pay fairly high rates of interest, no doubt; but it would he a mistake to think that investors will be so entirely preoccupied with war loans that Canada will be left out of all reckoning. "Money may not be over- Plentiful immediately after the war; time will show; but Canada can reasonably anticipate receiving a fair share of it, having regard to the boundless resources of the great Dominion, to say nothing of the closer bond of kinship that exists with Great Britain as nn outcome of Cana- da's magnificent response to the! Empire's call in the hour of dan-! ger." Wherever we are going to get! the money necessary for our| purposes, it is gratifying to know j that we are likely to get it with- j out any special degree of di ffi- culty, and it is all the more pleasing in that Great Britain ^ does not want to lose the Domin- ion as an outlet for its surplus i capital. With regard to Canadian bor- rowing in the United States it is: interesting to read the following New York message in the Boston \ News Bureau on prospective! borrowing of $100,000,000 by- Canada, which says: "Ordinarily, the Dominion would have no trouble in securing the money in London, and may have no great difficulty as soon as the British war loan is absorb-[ ed. The Dominion has responded loyally, enthusiastically even, to the call nf troops; England, with j the big loan of the dominant government out of the way, would undoubtedly assist the colony gladly. But bankers and other thoughtful students of trade in this country will be disappointed if Canada is obliged to resort to the London market. They would much prefer to have the Canadian loans floated here. "If there was no objection from Washington, a Canadian (lovernment offering would be assured of a hearty reception in this citv. Sentiment would, of course, play its part, pro-Canadian feeling being even more pronounced than is the pro-British. But, sentiment apart, offering aCanadian loan here would be received heartily for pure business and commercial reasons, as emphasizing cordial relations between this country and one of its best customers, as tending to even more intimate commercial association and as supplying that customer with funds usable for its own business and for purchases in the States. GOVERNMENT SEIZES'WHEAT. ierlin— All stocks of wheat have been seized by the German government, according to the official statement, in order to safeguard the bread supply until tlie next harvest". This measure, it is said, was made necessary by the fact that the people have, failed to economize, The stocks will lie distributed according to the population of the various eoniiimui- tie.. The order of the federal council is as follows : "All stocks of corn, wheat and Hour arc ordered seized by Feb. 1st. All business transactions in tl commodities are forbidden January L.itli. All municipalities are I'harged with the duty of setting aside suitable supplies of preserved meat. The owners of corn are ordered lo report their stocks immediately, whereupon confiscation, at a fixed ce, will follow. ^^^^^^ ollice regulation of consumption will be established, distribution being made according to the number of inhabitants." The Imperial Gazette published last week the following notice regarding the confiscating of grain: | " There is no doubt that the meas- ! ure ordered taken cuts much deeper into the economic life of our people than all the other economic regulations hitherto adopted by the'federal council during the war. It is, however, necessary in order to make I certain and sufficient regular supply of our people with breadstuffs until the next threshing of the new harvest and is, besides, a necessity of life for the government and the nation. The steps heretofore taken have proved themselves not far-reaching enough to bring tin 1 iiur limited suppi which, however, are in reality suffi-|i< regarded here aj the most sigiiifi- cient-for our needs.

Montreal.—The closing of the North Sea owing to war conditions has led to a. demand in Great Britain for fresh lish caught in Canadian waters. Three Canadian Express refrigerator ears carrying sixty thousand pounds of prime halibut taken from the waters of the Pacific Ocean off I'rince Rupert, passed through the city for St. .lohn, X. I!., where it will be shipped by the Allan Liner Scandinavian to the British market. A trial shipment of 20,000 pounds of halibut was made up iu I'rince i'upert Wl ineiiith. and when opened up in England was found tn he in lir . class condition, leading to the placing of other large orders. It is only since Ihe completion of the Grand Trunk Pacific's transcontinental line a few months ago that Prince Rupert lish has been on sale in eastern Canada and the United States. Remarkable catches are being made' by the fleet in the North Pacific fishing area, declared lo be the richest in the world, and the fish is at once placed in ice1 and given a quick run over the Grand Trunk Pacilic. In the Case of shipments to Great Britain the lish is carried over li.-lOO miles before il reaches the Consumer, but so perfect are the refrigerating precautions that it loses none of its delicacy. Local authorities look for a great development in this new trade between England and Canada, and believe that with the practically un- lished waters at the Dominion's dis- ].o-al it will la. t after tbe war lias January 1st, 1915.

Then three basketball teams were formed, including the priest, the minister, the blacksmith, the editor, a farmer, the keeper of the village restaurant, a dentist, a clothier, a teamster, a druggist, a garage owner, the banker, the saloon keeper, a hardware merchant and a house painter. They differ in religion, in politics, in incomes, in most other things about as widely as men ever differ. But in the common school building, in the free democracy of the social centre, they agreed to lay aside their fer only in incidentals but are one in the fundamentals, the great experiences and trials and sorrows that are the common lot. And out of this agreeable discovery will come, for Bellville, more tolerance, more kindliness of feeling, more give and take than it had ever known before. Even when they shall differ again—as, of course, they often will—it won't be with as much bitterness; as much bigotry, as much hate as of yore. It will not be a bad world when we have more brotherhood. f§ G. T. P. R. fj| Edmonton - Prince George Prince Rupert THROUGH STANDARD SLEEPER No. 1 Leave Edmonton Tuesdays and Fridays 10-00 p. m.

There's a corridor two blocks long lined with beautiful Bottieiono marble, in the new postollicc in New York City; but that is not the most impressive feature about the structure, which has only lately been taken over by the Postoffice Department. The most impressive feature about the new building is the time it saves. It used to be considered wonderful that the mail was transported from the sorting room in wagons to thc railroad terminals by horses going at top speed. Later it was considered more wonderful when they began to use thc speedier motor trucks. Then they put in pneumatic tubes, wind being more rapid than motors. But all these have been discounted by the force of gravity, for it is by Newton's law that pouches drop through a tube into a train waiting beneath. Seconds, not minutes,' now mark the interval hetween the time the last letter leaves the sorter's liands and the moment it starts on its railway journey. For the wonderful new postoffice, wliich occupies two blocks on Eighth Avenue, hetween Thirty-first and Thirty-third Streets, straddles the Pennsylvania railroad tracks. Electrically hauled mail trains halt a minute in the lower regions of the vast white stone structure, while the men turn the mail chute into the car doors, as you turn the hose into a pail. Whiz! Thud! Bang! And thc entire mail drops in the ear more quickly than one hag could have been thrown in hy hand. A wave of the hand and the train shoots on under the city, under the river and away goes the mail to all purls (if the country, Certainly nowhere in this country, probably nowhere in tlic world, is there a postoffice tiiat compares with that in New York in its race with time in handling mail, lt cost about SU,000,000.

Los Angeles, Cal.—Roast ostrich was the prime dish at a dinner given by the Y. M. C, A. More than 1500 persons were served from one bird. The ostrich was five months old. Dressed for cooking it weighed somewhat over 100 pounds. Each of the drumsticks tipped the scales at IG pounds. In its preparation 125 pounds of dressing were used. Of this there were 50 pounds of chestnuts, 50 loaves of bread, 30 pounds of butter 25 pounds of onions, 25 heads of celery and 1 pound of spices. The bird was roasted in an oven six feet square. To him who does everything in its proper time, one day is worth three. In connection with what has been said about the prosperity that could be looked for after tlie war, the following from the London Statist is of interest on this point: "If our arms by sea and land are successful, confidence will revive everywhere, and the encouragement given to everybody who desires to make money will he such that enterprise will be fostered in every direction. It cannot too often be repeated that it was in the great revolutionary wars at the end of the eighteenth and the beginning of the nineteenth century that Britain's pre-eminence as a commercial country was established."
