We are glad to 6ee that the Board of Trade have once more heeonie alive to the fact that Kevelstoke has latent advantages in the way of physical and topographical features that the development of which, if carried out in the proper manner and with a view to a business standpoint and commercial enterprise, would greatly increase the value of Revelstoke as an entrepot and distributing centre of a rich and profitable district. We should realize that we are situated, as few cities can say, in the middle of a section of Country where trade from all points north, south, east and west can be drawn and distiibuted to the different centres where development is being earned on. In the Big Bend nnrtli of us we hive one of the richest areas in B. C, and one which would repay a hundred fold any capital invested in it and any development whic won Irt entail a large outlay. Apart from the (act that there are in this region, large an .1- of rich lands suitable for agriculture and fruit growing, besides valuable mining properties and extensive forests of high class tinilier, the physical features of the valley immediately assert themselves, a.- being particularly adopted for the transportation of such merchandise and supplies as would lie necessary for development of all kinds. Another important point and one which is now exercising tlie minds of mam- today, is the fact that the Grand Trunk I'acilic, will tie carrying their track across the continent shortly and tu accomplish this they must of necessity have a route through which to take supplies. It is concluded that the V. Ilowhead 1'ass is Chosen and that Tete Jutine Cache will be the headquarters for the construction base in that section and the question of a suitable route through which to take supplies is now being discussed. The Columbia river nt once suggests itself, and following the oourse of the river to the head of the Bend where I'linne and Wood rivers meet, there will be n long si retch of easily navigable waters for vessels of large size. The total distance from Kevelstoke to Tete Jaune Cache is 180 miles, the greater portion of which can be traversed by water and there only remains a sliorl distance of road or train construction to Tate Jaime Cache to complete as perfect and easy a route iib can he obtained anywhere else in the province. The attention of the Grand Trunk I'acilic should be drawn to the practicability of the Columbia river route as the cheapest and easiest means of access from the centre of coniiiii'rcial progress, for supplies and transport. When the value of the country through which Hub route runs is realized tlie U. T. P, may see lit to establish n brunch line to Kevelstoke which would considerably benefit this district besides being a valuable addition to that railroad. The Board of Trade should oertsinly tako up this mutter and push it through with every stress laid on the advantages to be accrued and the dispatch mul feasibility with which communication can he. had with the Interior. A LESSON FOR ALL. We are always in these days endeavoring to separate intellect and manual labor; we want one man tn he always thinking and another lo bo always working, and we call one a gentleman and another an operative, whereas the workman ought often to be thinking anil the thinker often to he working, and both should be gentlemen in the best senee. As it is we reduce both, the one envying the other despising, lienco the mass of humanity being a mixture of morbid thinkers and niiueiublc workers. li the working men of this country have any real friends among them they will study the present situation aud teach them a few truths. The Canadian workingman, though intelligent, is easily inlluenceii hy agitators and it should be the duty of his friends lo put mutters to him in a reasonable light. No moro opportune time could be chosen than the present. He should understand that his interests and those ol his employer are one and the more he can earn for them the greater his guarantee of profitable and uninterrupted employment at a fair wage. Teach him that when his employers are able to issue an annual statement showing a surplus of profits he Bhould be sensible and rejoice in their success, which means his success and their savings his only guarantee of employment when times are hard and money tight No man can afford to quarrel with ids bread and butter and every encouragement should be given to thoBe individuals and corporations who are willing to spend their money among a community who indirectly will benefit by it, cities paid members in most of the eastern provinoes is much in excess of the figure $800 paid here.

Second Street, - East End THE WELCOME GUE8T Apropos of the general meeting of the directors and delegates of the B. C. Kruit and Produce Exchange, the rirst week in February, it would not be an unwise or ill-timed suggestion to our Board of Trade that they should take steps to welcome tlie visitors to our city and extend to them hospi- tulity which the occasion deserves. The Exchange was organized last summer with Kevelstoke as its headquarters, chosen chietlv on account of the centralization and geographical situation as being most suitable, and during its career so far, has made excellent progress. Practically the whole of B. C. will be represented on Friday, Feb. 5th at the meeting and it is becoming that the citizens should extend to them a cordial welcome ami make the visit of provincial representatives a pleasure as well as a duty.

PRATT, Manager, MUNICIPAL BORROWING Canadian Financier Says Cities Too Retdy to Incure Debt. Toronto, Jan. '24.—Mr. E. 11. Wood, vice-president of ilie Dominion Securities Company, In hie address at tbe annual meeting ol the corporation, reviewed the bond situation in detail. His words were: -> "Tbe weakest feature of the municipal situation is tbe willingness of municipalities to assume indebtedness especially for undertakings of a general public service nature. Such debt is assumed without recognition of the fact that its swelling total must lead to increasing interest r tea toco i>pen- sate for the increased risk of the bunds as investments. The present large rise in interest rates oliscures this inevitable remit. It will appear when interest reaches its level again. "Since Great Britain is necessarily the only great market for Canadian bonds, the municipalities should seek the advice of an investment house familiar with that market, aud prepare their issues under its direction. If done properly, this need not preclude getting tbe issue ready in a form satisfactory to the Canadian markets also. Such action will widen the market and increase the credit ol the municipality. In seeking this British market Canadians should always bear in mind that tbe English investor has a worldwide field to choose from, and seemingly small things turn him from a given security. He is in a position to exact his conditions." Attack Lemieux Act Ottawa, Jan. 24—The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers has asked the city to award them $8,000 towards entertaining the delegates of North America at Ottawa next July. About one hundred railroad men representing different organizations, convened here yesterday to discuss the Lemieux Act, and also prosecutions that are instituted against railroad men under tbe criminal code. The convention. after thorough discussion, will make representations to the Government asking for redress of their grievances. British Canadian Wood Pulp and Paper Co. LIMITED. 313 Cordova Street, Vancouver, B. C. We have established the townsite of Port Mellon on Howe Sound, 25 miles from Vancouver and secured the water rights of Rainy River, which is capable of developing from 2,000 to 5,000 horse-power, for the location of our mammoth plant for the manufacture of newspaper, building paper, wrapping paper, etc., the plant to have a capacity of 450 ions of tinished paper per week; the company hope to have the pulp plant in operation by November 1, 1908. We now offer for subscription the balance of the first allotment of Preferred Stock in blocks of 100 at $1.00 per share aoeh 100 Shares entitled to a bonus of 25 Shares of Preferred. SPECIAL NOTICE! In the event of the first allotment is over-subscribed the Company reserves the right to reduoe any or all subscription to an amount satisfaotory to themselves. The preferred stock is entitled to a dividend of 7 per cent, commencing November 1, 1908 The 7 per cent, dividend is due and payable before any dividend is paid upon the common stock. After 7 per cent, has been paid upon preferred both stocks thereafter participate equally. There is no good reason why the preferred should not pay from 25 to 50 per cent, dividends. The books of the corporation are open at any time for the inspection of the general public. There is no watered stock, no inflated values, no ground-floor plan, or huge promoters' projects in the enterprise. Unlike most corporations, instead of allowing 15 to 25 per cent, for advertising, and sale of stock, the entire commission, literature, newspaper advertising, brokerage, office expenses, etc., is limited to 10 per cent. The public are cordially invited to visit out demonstrating plant, 313 Cordova street, and witness the manufacture of pulp and papnr from refuse material, such as slabs, discarded shingle bolts, etc., that is now being burnt at the local mills.

"The Swiss Alps are more massive, ou a grander scale, and more cruel and more cold than the Canadian Rockies. For their beauty they cannot begin to compare wiih our mountains in Alberta and British Columbia.'' This is how A. 0. Wheeler, of Calgary, president of the Alpine Club of Canada, sums it up, These impressions he just gained on a trip to Switzerland. We understand that a change 11 qualification for active members of the Alpine Club will be intrcduced this year. President, A. n. Wheeler, is in possession of photographs of Mount Garibaldi and vicinity of the Pacific Coast range, showing glaciers and other Alpine features. This minima n is considerably below 10,000 feet above sea level aud its ascent involves difficult aud dangerous climbing. Those who have essayed it tell an in teres til g story of that region, and its discovery materially changes the test nf active membership. The Club will be asu' to approve uf a clause making 2,500 feet above tbe timber line on a glaci-r hung mountain, the lowest altitude in the test for qualification.

Arrange to Put a Large Force of Men to Work on Their Property on Howe Sound Near Vancouver. ♦*• Ariungi mentsare being made by the British Canadian Wood Pulp and Paper Co., Ltd., of Vancouver, says the World, to put a lurge force of men to work on their pr, party, on Howe Sound, 25 miles from the city, where they are to erect a large plant for the manufacture of newspaper, wrapping paper, box boards, etc. The plan of tlie company is to complete tlie pulp mill beiore Commencing the work on the plant lur the manufacture of finished paper. This will enable tho company to go on the market with their output of wood pulp while the paper plant is under course of construction. The demand for wood pulp is equally as great 11s for finished paper, and it will Im in' difficult to contract the enliie output either in England, Japan, Australia or the United States. Tin company are able to manufacture chen.i'iil wood pulp at about $28 por ton, aud tbo product is now worth from $50 to $00 per ton, either at lhe New York or London markets. The question uf securing sufficient wood pulp for the universal supply t.f paper is one that is now perplexing ihe minds of both domestic and foreign manufacturers, and one that is gradually becoming more .serious and difficult. The world's coi sumption of paper is increasing at an enormous rate while the material from which to manufacture is gradu ally decreasing. The company are now placing their first allotment of prefened stock on the market in blocks of 100 at $1 per share. The preferred stock is entitled to a dividend ol 7 per cent, commencing Nov. 1st., 1908, but unlimited as to further dividends.
