FOREST FIRES MINLMIZED
Prevents
fire
Co.opei.«W    Protection
Large Losses.
Ottawa, Jan. S.-The forest
,,« on Dominion forest reserves- In
rZtem Canada was smaller during
,hP list season than ever before. On
«»veral of the reserve, in Manitoba
fnd Saskatchewan fire occasioned no
_.m4_8 whatever, and on .the Do-
Sn reserves in the Railway Belt,
ne tho only green timber Injured
hv fire was four acres of young
lodcepole Pine. Even on the Rocky
Mountains reserve in Alberta, with
the immense area of 13,373,856
acres most of which is remote from
settlement, fire destroyed only 1150
acres of young timber, whose present
value was small, and mature timber
,„ the value of $150. The total area
burnt on this reserve was but two
one-hundredths of one per cent, of
the above acreage, and It is likely
ulien the reports are complete from
the other reserves, which are smaller
and usually better protected, that
the aggregate area burnt over by fire
„ill be no greater than one one-
hundredth of one per cent, of the
total reserved area. The significance
of this figure is apparent by comparison with the corresponding figure
tor the National Forests in the United States, where the area burnt over
bv lire In 1913, although admittedly
the smallest in recent years, was
about 0.03 per cent, of the total.
That the fire loss on Dominion re-
lerves in the West has been so remarkably small is due In large measure to the fact that the governmenl
rangers unceasingly .sought and obtained the co-operation of all wieti
whom they came in contact, whethe
settler, Indian, hunter, tourist oi
packer. The new fire posters ask
tor thiB co-operation instead of demanding it as previously; a plea foi
it is printed on railway timetables
and on hunting licenses; it is secured
trom homesteaders by providing
them with flre-flghtlng tools and by-
connecting rural telephone lines
with ranger stations on forest reserves, and even the Indians, many
ot whom were careless with flre, aire
now Induced to assist In its prevention by being presented honorary
metal badges by the Dominion government. Carelessness Is the chief
cause ot forest flre and by its elimination tbe greatest difficulty in forest flre protection Is overcome.

Track-laying Will Be Continued Westward Taking Advantage of Favorable Weather Conditions—Temporary
Bridge Over Fraser River Here Will Be Completed in a Week—Celebration Planned
To Welcome Arrival of Railroad
The railroad has arrived.
Just at 3:30 o'clock on Monday
afternoon the big Pioneer track-
laying machine laid the last rails on
the east bank of the Fraser river opposite South Fort George. The work
train then ran back to the siding at
Mile 231, while the track-layer was
left by the river bank to await the
completion of the temporary bridge
over the Fraser by which it will
carry steal along westward.
There will be a delay of a week
here while the bridge is being completed. The work of driving piles is
being rushed with all speed, and it
is stated that within five days the
river will be crossed, and after that
probably two days will be required
to prepare the structure for the
steel.
The steel will not, ae announced
previously, remain here this winter.
As soon as the bridge is crossed   a
siding will be put in on Prince
George, and the track-layers will
proceed westward with all despatch.
At least twenty-five or thirty miles
of rails will be laid west of Prince
George before the gang is laid off
for the winter. It is expected that
Mud river will be reached before the
end of this month.
The ideal weather conditions pre-' as yet
vailing this winter have been a boon i plans
to the Grand Trunk Pacific so far as
track-laying is concerned. Deep
snow is the greatest obstacle to
steel-laying, and this season there
has been up to date practically no
snow at all. The freedom from hard
frosit has also been a factor in favor
of rapid railroad progress.
The steel will be welcomed to this
place with due ceremony.
A committee consisting of W. F.
Cooke of South Fort George, C. W.
ecutive. The committee eto make ar-
Moore of Fort George and   B.    W.
Cole of Foley's has been appointed
to arrange plans for a pageant   to
greet the track-laying machine when
it crosses the bridge    into    Prince
George.   The date of the pageant can
not be accurately set as yet, as it depends entirely on the time required
to complete the temporary bridge.
Although the committee has   not
had time to    formulate    its
n detail, it is expected that
the celebration will include a parade
; representing the history of this dis-
[ trict. There will be a band of In-
jdians, dog teams, canoe floats, surveyors, old-timers, the Hudson's Bay
company will probably be well represented, while all the modern development will also be shown. It is
proposed to have every business
place in the distriot closed for the
occasion and everybody in the country who is able to walk, ride or
drive be present to eocort the tracklayers into town.
COlfflMED FOE TRIAL
GENERAL MEETING OF
SOCIAL CLUB MEMBERS
The foramtion of hockey and
bowling teams, the completion ot
arrangements for a necktie and
apron dance to be held on Friday,
January 23, and a minstrel show,
were but a few of the activities that
plans are being laid for by the Social
Club. It was 10:30 on Saturday-
night wlien President Stafford called
the large number of members that
fere present to order. The first Item
on the program was an address by
W. Wilson, a local barrister, who,
speaking of the cosmopolitan nature
of tho citizens in this country, said
that we should all be moulded Into
w>e grand type of Canadian citizenship. In a club such as the Social
Club we should avoid any possible
dissentions and cultivate a spirit of
brotherhood and generosity.

ou&;°stte6, The8e,ection
At his preliminary trial held here
on Friday last, George Onooki,
charged with the murder of Harry
Porters, was committed for trial at
the spring assizes. He is to be imprisoned at Kamloops until May,
when he will be taken to Clinton for
trial.
Astonishment was plainly visible
on the faces of many of the spectators who crowded the courtroom
when the prisoner was led to the bar.
With his boyish face, slightly pale
due to his confinement in the cell, it
seemed hardly comprehensible that
the accused could have been guilty
of a crime so brutal as the killing ot
Porters. He is about 24 or 26 years
old, and an Austrian by birth, although he speaks English quite
fluently. He did not seem to realize
the seriousness of his position, and
on one or two occasions was seen to
laugh at remarks of the witnesses.
The prisoner was not represented by
counsel. Chief of Police Dunwoody
acted as crown prosecutor.
The first witness was Dr. Lazier,
who testified as to the nature of
Porters' wounds, and the direct
cause of death. H. M. Dell, timekeeper in Tony Jack's tie camp,
where the accused worked, was called next. He stated the prisoner came
to the camp December 16 and worked until December 22. He left on
that day and did not return to camp
until December 29. Dell and each
succeeding witness was bound over
to appear at the assizes on a personal
bond of $600.
Mike Brown, employed with Bates
& Rogers at the G. T. P. bridge here,
swore that he saw the prisoner talking to Porters in the bar at South
Fort George on the evening of Dec.
24. He told Porters to keep away
from that kind of * man. Witness
saw Porters give the prisoner money.
In reply to a question put by Magis
trate Heme, witness said he saw a
16 bill and two ones in Porters'
purse.
Thomas Chmowsky and his wife,
who followed, gave a resume of the
interview which appeared in The
Herald last week. When asked by
the accused, "Did I tell you about
man having money and I want to rob
him?" witness replied "Yes."
After the noon adjournment Chief
Dunwoody took the stand and told
of the finding of Porters' body, the
arrest of the accused and the finding
of his stained clothing. Constable
Aldrlch, who followed, swore that
he measured the footmarks found
near the body of the deceased and
that the measurements corresponded
exactly with those of the shoes of the
prisoner.
T. Chaffln said he knew both
Onooki and Porters. They had worked at Mile 160 while he was there.
B. Mauser, who keeps a boarding
house in South, was the next witness.
He said Onooki was In his house
Christmas eve about 9 o'clock. The
coat exhibited in court was, he said,
found beside the bed occupied by the
accused. Harry Julius, the interpreter, also swore he saw the prisoner
early Christmas eve.
John Bochesky, from Mile 226,
swore that Onooki slept with him in
the boarding house Christmas eve,
but he did not know what time
Onooki went to bed. Witness got
up early next morning and left the
prisoner sleeping. This concluded
the case for the crown.
The prisoner was then asked
whether he cared to make a statement. After due deliberation he
said tiiat he did.
"I was in town Christmas time.

me, Edward Flim. We all three got
drunk and then wen* out. Flim and
another fellow wanted to take me
home. This was the night before
Christmas. Film wanted to take me
somewhere to put me to bed. He
said 'Chief of police told me if you
don't take me he will pinch you and
put you in jail' Then he let me go,
and I go down to Billy Seymour's
place. There was no light ln the
house. Then I go out on the road
where I meet two fellows who ask
me if I know anybody Romanish who
keeps a rooming house. I tell them
I know one ln Central Fort George.
They then ask me if I know any
place to go to drink their whisky.- I
said I know one empty bouse near
the B. X. office. I go down to
Chmowsky's place to get a hammer,
and when I come back they have
gone up the hill. I turn back to etown
again and had a few drinks with a
fellow. He was a nurse from Mile
160. We went down to the poolroom and I opened the door and Edward Flim took me and chucked me
out and tore the sleeve of my coat.
The nurse wanted to take me home.
Then he wanted to take me to bed.
He took me out on the street, but I
did not want to go with him. Then
I went out on the street and was
chewing the rag with a fellow and
he hit me on the mouth.
At this juncture Chief Dunwoody,
wlho was taking the statement down,
declared that he would not take any
nore.
"You will keep me here all day at
the rate you are going. Sign this,"
and he handed the statement to the
prisoner. After protesting to the
magistrate, the prisoner affixed his
I signature to ithe document. Magis-
I Jtrate   Heme   then   committed   the
was with a fellow from Mile 162. I
got drunk in the hotel. I was fighting with a man whose name I did not
know.   There was another man with
prisoner for trial.
Yesterday, accompanied by Chief
Dunwoody and a constable, Onooki
left for Kamloops.

Viscount   Cross,   who   was   British
home secretary under Disraeli,    Is
dead.
Responded to Summons of Help   to
Other Town—Scott's Hotel
is Damaged.
The South Fort George flre brigade received a hurry-up call last
Saturday afternoon when flre broke
out In J. W. Scott's hotel in Fort
George. As soon as the alarm came
in over the telephone the local brigade rushed to the aid of the Central
fire fighters, and incidentally every
available auto and rig travelling
Fort George-wards was crowded with
volunteers and spectators.
The building where the flre occurred is on the corner of one of the
most closely built up blocks in the
other town, the Fort George hotel,
Kennedy, Blair & Company's store,
the office of the telephone company,
the Bank of Vancouver and other
buildings being situated in the block.
Given a good start the flames would
have wiped out this entire list. However, prompt and efficient work on
the part of the brigades and a large
number of volunteers saved the d -.

SOUTH FORT GEORGK
SOCIAL CLUB DANCE
The South Fort George Social Club
announce their second dance to be
held In Birch's hall on January 23,
1914, and it will be in the form of
a necktie and apron social. This is
something entirely new in this oom-
munity and tlie club assures all who
attend a very good time. There will
be several new features introduced
which will keep everyone in good
humor. The ladies attending are
expected to wear an apron made
from an old gingham or colored
cloth and to bring sealed in an envelope unmarked a gentleman's
necktie made of the same material
as the apron. They are requested
to deliver these articles to the chairman of the dance committee, Andy

$1.60. Ladies free. A. Buchell is

Mrs. James Macdonald, tlie first
white woman on the Lillooer . .4.11. 1»
dead here. She kept a roadhuus. at
Port Douglas in 1860. departure of the old year, "unwept,
unhonored and unsung" the people
of British Columbia and of the Dominion are content to see it relegated to the limbo of that which is past.
With the advent of a new year, opening up a wide vista of opportunity to
those who have the courage and the
ability  to  grapple  with life's problems, the prospects look bright.     A
:-••.■  country in its initial stages   of
d,   elo] mi nt has a recuperative power which those who live and   have
their boing in the old and    settled
portions of the,-world    can    hardly
credit.   All that is required is capital
for legitimate enterprise and men of
industry   to  direct    its    operations.
Those who have gone through    the
year just over have learned perhaps
unwillingly,  but nevertheless    have
learned, that capital must be used
with a more foresighted    judgment
than was the case previous to 1913.
During that period the   West    was
temporarily enjoying a phase of existence which every western country
in a new land has gone through at
some time or another in Its history.
The period of depression which followed was    the    natural    outcome.
Every country which enjoyed an unparalleled era of prosperity also suffered from the consequent reaction.
But no one need be discouraged by
reason of what Canada has passed
through during 1913.
Business today is on a more stable
footing than it was a year ago, for
many reforms have been accomplished, and the people look forward
to applying their experiences to the
brighter conditions under which the
and the years to come.
Let there be confidence and steadiness for the future and we will yet
ealize   all our best dreams    ahout
the d sti id of South Fort George and
the Province of British Columbia.

of various sizes will be sold on easy
terms, and we are sure that anyone
who has inspeoted the interior of

wove short in 1913, and prices, particularly Of  food,  were high,  which
may  have helped agriculture   as   a
whole, though no country ever made
much money out of its crop shortages.    As to 1914 ".rop conditions, it
nny be said that said conditions are
favorable and winter wheat is in excellent shape.    The matter of possible  railway  rate advances  presses
for early  solution.    All  of  the ad-
ances asked for in past years would
have been Insufficient to save  some
b idly managed enterprises from the
effects of their   own   sins, but   the
justice,  indeed  the  absolute  necessity, of allowing tbe railways to recoup themselves for high  cost    of
operation can hardly be denied.    In
thia matter the auguries at the outset of the year are thought favorable,  and  if  they  prove so  should
have an important effect in stimulating demand for a variety of articles
which   move   through the marts of
trade.    Whether any great liquidation in commodity prices is possible
in 1914 is doubtful, and without that
the often  predicted  liquidation    of
labor seems to partake of the nature
of a dream.   High costs of ail operation in fact, seem to have come to
stay, but it does not seem possible to
the world's most useless expenditure,
that for armaments.    Time will, perhaps, be needed to heal the bruises;
they were hardly deep-seated injuries that the business world received
in 1913, but past experience   would
seem to  indicate that,  lacking  any
serious damage to the business fabric, of which there are    no    really
tangible signs, a comparatively quick
revival from the quiet    visible    in
many lines should ensue, governed,
of course, by the money and crop developments of 1914.

JS Tribune has culled the following
Son of the address from the Van-
_,nver Province:
cir George Paish is a young-look-
ing man of the   clean-cut    English
e lie spoke in very simple, and
Seed very colloquial, language   as
mnared to most of the Englishmen
his   standing that have visited
Ltem Canadian clubs    In    recent
rs nut his speeches in the three
Lf cities of the east were marked
bv a moderateness and an accuracy
it inspired confidence in the minds
ot his hearers. He was careful to
be extremely tactful and yet. obviously, to be quite candid. He did
not appear to overlook any point
Which WW In Canada's favor, nor yet
l0 underestimate any conditions
wUch he thought to be adverse.
Consequently, when in summing up
he declared his belief that there waa
M cause for anxiety as to Canada's
future, and when his only admonition to bis hearers was that they
should continue to exercise the same
conservative business methods which
have characterized Canadian business for the past eight or nine
months, the audience showed immediate appreciation, not to say relief.
Sir George Paish described the
borrowings of Canada as being nothing short of miraculous. He pointed out that this was made possible
by the faith the people of the United
Kingdom had In this country and in
the Canadian people. He referred
to the heavy interest payments which
Canada was bourn* to make and to
the fact that these obligations had
always been met promptly. He did
not doubt that these relations between Canada an<> the old country
would continue Indefinitely, but he
made lt clear that the importation of
money Into Canada from England
was almost certain to drop. It had
averaged, he said, nbout fifty million
pounds sterling per annum for some
time past. It would not keep up to
that figure but would not he thought
be likely to drop below twenty million pounds sterling per annum.
Later, In private conversation ln
Toronto he elaborated some of the
points he had made ln his public addresses. "It is most Important," he
Mid, "that the Canadian people.
should be brought to realize this fact,
that they have just passed through,
or are still passing through, a period
of construction. There have been
railways to be built, and other great
public works.    Now, however,   you
n come to a point where you must
devote more attention to production,
tbat is, to make use of the new machinery which you have established
in the period of construction. There
15 no use In going ahead adding to
your facilities which you already
have. Canada therefore must expect
to enter upon a period of production
rather than construction."
'But has Canada been very much
Hind-hand in tho matter   of   pro-
your  correspondent    enquired.
N'o. On the contrary the jnanner
to Which production has been in-
cr««M, especially In the prairie
Pwinces, iH truly remarkable and
W'tc satisfactory, Other provinces

m> remark is that the ratio ot proactive activity to constructive    ac-
vlty must be altered for a period of
y so that more energy Is expend-
