Chairman Mclntyre drew attention
in his address at the opening of the
meeting to the necessity of celebrating
our own national holiday and to impress
upon the children as well as the foreigners
in our midst that Dominion Day to
Canadians is honored as our birthday.
The doctor also drew attention to the
fact that it was necessary to have funds.
to carry out a program on that day.
Mr. Dawson reported that there was
something like $200 left over from the
celebration on May 24th and it was
available for this celebration.
Subscription lists ware prepared and
nearly $300 was subscribed by those
present which was a very encouraging
start. The public generally are expected to donate liberally to this fund.
Efforts will be made by the Transportation Committee to have boats
run special excursions from all the
surrounding towns to Prince Rupert
on that day. The Advertising Committee
will also make liberal use of printers
ink in advertising the celebration in
those towns. Every effort will be put
forth to make Dominiln Day 1910 a day
that will long be remembered by everyone.
The meeting adjourned until Saturday night at 8 o'clock in the city hall.
friends waited and he did not put in his
appearance. The clerk was sent up to
his room and found the door bolted.
He knocked and could get no answer.
Then the door was broken tol and it was
found that Mr. Selfe had shot himself.

Vancouver, June 24.���A. A. Selfe,

How  Prize  Fighting   Pays
Reno, Nev. June 24.���(Special)���Jim

VIRUS BEGINS
TO TAKE HOLD
TELEPHONE DECISION IS URGENT
Company Will Soon Be Applying for a Franchise.
The Aldermen will have to Grant it
Unless  the  Citizens   Petition  the
Council   to  Take   the Company'
Assets Over.
RATS    ARE    GETTING    SCARCE
AROUND  THE  DOCKS
Several of the Rodents Found in the
Last Stages of Disease and Decrepitude ��� Another Application
to be Made.
That the rate virus has begun to reach
the spot where it will do good work
is evidenced by several instances that
have been brought to the attention of
Mr. McMaster at the dock. The Grand
Trunk wharf men say there are not
nearly as many rats to be seen as
formerly, and that two or three have been
noticed that were slow in their movements and evidently weak. One of these
was brought to Mr. McMaster. It was
all scaled on the back, and evidently
in an advanced stage of the disease
which is said to be produced by the
virus. One rat in that shape will contaminate all the passages through which
he travels and infect all the rats he may
come into contact with.
At Morrow's butcher shop two rats
were discovered in a dying condition
and both of these had scales and scabs
on the bodies. From a cottage in which
the virus was placed, a badly diseased
rodent was picked up. These are three
instances from different points in which
have come evidence that the virus is
working. It is stated that it takes from
eight to fourteen days for the virus to
operate, and these first evidences seem
a proof of the fact. Mr. McMaster has
given the Grand Trunk rodents two or
three treatments already. He thinks
that a general distribution of the virus
should again be made in the course of
the next week or two.
Clearing Way for  Kitchener
London, June 24.���(Special)��� General
Nicholson has been appointed to a command in Ireland. This leaves the way
clear for Lord Kirchener to be appointed chief of imperial staff.
There appears to be considerable indifference among the people dbout singing the telephone petition. It may be
that the situation is not thoroughly
understood. The Prince Rupert Telephone company was organized and allowed to place poles, string wires, and do
other work on the streets on condition
that they offer the whole outfit to the
city as soon as the council was organized.
The shareholders in the company were
not to make a cent of profit. The idea
was merely to shut out the B. C. Telephone company and save the franchise
for the city.
 i	
The franchise has been saved. The
citizens who subscribed for stock have
put up $10,000 in cash. They have spent
much more than that on the work.
$5,000 is now about due. The citizens
must petition the council to take the
assets of the Telephone Co. They must
sign the petition and get it before the
council at once. If they do not the
company will apply to the council for
a franchise and the aldermen will have
no alternative but to grant it. Once the
franchise is granted the citizens will have
nothing more to say. The telephone will
be in the hands of a private company
who will operate it for profit.
The president of the Board of Trade
is circulating a petition. There are also
copies at the city hall, McCaffery &
Gibbons', Lynch Bros', and G. R. Naden
and Co's. This is the critical time.
It is a case of municipal ownership or
corporation monopoly. Those who
own stock in the company will in a
short time apply for ar charter and they
will get it unless the citizens petition the
Council otherwise.

Rain Ensures Big Harvest
Winnipeg, June 24.���(Special)���The
rain is general all through the Manitoba
and Alberta wheat growing districts,
and there is no question now but that
there will be a bumper crop.
It was yesterday afternoon that acting
Mayor Mobley and some of the aldermen were made aware of the presence
in the city of the University Commission. No time was lost then, however, in getting a couple of the aldermen
together and meeting the distinguished
educationalists at the G. T. P. Inn
where tbey were making their headquarters. The acting mayor extended
a welcome on the wharf of the council
and citizens and expressed the hope that
the visitors would not feel a lack of
enthusiasm on the part of Prince Rupert
people.
The commissioners replied that they
came into town quietly and wished to
perform their labors quietly without
any receptions or deputations. Tlfey
espressed pleasure however at meeting
the acting mayor and his Council colleagues and congratulated them upon
the rapid progress and the wonderful
development   of  their  city.
In speaking of the visit of the commissioners during the afternoon one of
the city fathers stated that he did not
anticipate that Prince Rupert had anv
chance whatever of being chosen. The
city itself is not for enough advanced
and the country tributary thereto was
barely opened up yet, although the "xt
few years would see wonderful changes,
the like of which history does not relate. At the same time he believed that
Victoria would be the favored spot if the
university was to be placed on the coast
at all.

PUBLIC   NUISANCES
Aid. Hilditch   Thinks   the   Council
Should   Do   Things.
Aid. Hilditch asked the council last
night if it was not nearly, time to take
steps to stop merchants and others
leaving debris such as boxes, excelsior,
straw and paper loose on the streets
to blow around and be a constant danger
of fire. He also wished to know if it was
the intention to permit cows, hogs,
horses, chickens etc., to be kept in the
thickly populated districts or to allow
them to run at large.
All these things must be regulated
sooner or later but the aldermen did hot
wish to take those matters up until
such time as the proper by-laws were
ready for introduction. They will all be
regulated   properly.

SHORT-SIGHTED POLICY.
The S. S. Prince Rupert on her first trip last week brought probably the
largest passenger list that ever came into this city off one boat. She also had a
large quantity of local freight, much of which was secured through the loyalty of
the local merchants who are trying to help the G. T. P. work up a profitable trade.
Large as the passenger list was the merchants have not been rushed with orders
for supplies from the Prince Rupert steward. The city of Prince Rupert can furnish
the attraction for the passenger trade and may have the privilege of being the chief
source of supply for the freight department, but Seattle and Vancouver are evidently to be the base of supplies. This may be considered good business, but it does
not take a very far-sighted man to see the value of the G. T. P. boats assisting to
build up local trade by purchasing their supplies here, even at slightly advanced
prices. If everyone adopted the principle of purchasing abroad the G. T. P. boats
would soon have no freight to carry. There would be no merchants and no city.
This is rather a bad example to set when the city needs home patronage.

TENDERS FOR PRINTING
Three Printing Offices put in Bids
For  the  City Work
k
Tenders to do the city printing were
received from three offices by the council
last night, but as very few of the aldermen were conversant with facts and
figures relative to the "art preservative,"
they deemed it expedient to transfer
the burden to the financial committee.
That august body will take the tenders
into their serious consideration and impart their finding to the council at a
later meeting.
Those   present   were   acting   Mayor
obley, Aid. Smith, Pattullo, Lynch,
Hilditch.
The minutes of the last meeting were
read and adopted.
Aid. Pattullo got leave to introduce
a by-law defining the duties of the city
clerk and treasurer.
Tenders    for   Printing
Tenders for printing were received
from the Prince Rupert Optimist, the
Prince Rupert Journal, and the Premier
Press,
On motion of Aid. Pattullo and Lynch,
the tenders were referred to the Finance
Committee   to   report   on���Carried.
Aid. Pattullo also said that in future
all advertisements calling for tenders
shall call for replies to be marked
"Tenders" for whatever it may be. This
was adopted.
Aid. Hilditch gave notice that he
would introduce a by-law defining the
duties  of  the  medical  health  officer.

Prince Rupert is remarkable in many
ways for a pioneer town, but the law
and order that prevails here is surprising even to the police force itself. Business is very quiet here said Chief
McCarvel. We will have to start exorcising to keep down the fat if something does not spring up soon.
Ed. Leighton was escorted to New
Westminster jail last night by Provincial
Police Officer Jones from Kitselas.
He will sojourn behind the stone walls
for the next three years.

SOMETHING DOING
Foley,  Welch  &  Stewart   Preparing
Timber for Small Bridges
A large load of very heavy fir timber
was received by Foley Welch & Stewart
from Bellingham. Wash., this week.
It has been unloaded near the warehouse
and a gang of men are preparing it for
use iii the several bridges that have to be
built along the route. As fast as the road
advances the timber will be sent forward and the bridges constructed.
Shovels   at   Work
Two of the new steam shovels brought
up a few weeks ago by Foley, Welch &
Sgewart are now working at Rankin
and McDougal's camp at Kitselas
canyon. The other five have been sent
forward and will be started moving rock
and ear in a very few days.
"Grin and bear it"���but have your
guard ready the next time!
"Hail to the vanquished!" is nice,
sympathetic verse���but the victors get
the goodies! All hands join the winners!
"Morning hearts and morning faces"
���and the man who wrote those fine,
cheery words was a "lunger," who
knew that his doom was upon him!
VALE   OF   KITSELAS
Beyond   the   mountain's   rise,
Below   the   river's   sweep,
Above   them   smiling   skies
In sunshine warm and sweet,
Vale of Vales, in sunrise or sunsets
Through   days   and   nights
Thy beauty sleeps but never sets,
Through the  dusk, the  dark, the
lights
Beyond   the   ocean's   blue,
Ahead   the   Prairies roll
All   around   big  strong  and   true
The land that shall yet take toll
Of the world and its   outspreading
On   the   last   and   longest    trek,
When  they come in the twilight
treading
The trails of the  last  big meet.

BRANDON PLAYERS COMING.
Will   Play   Here   for   Nine   Nights
Starting Next Thursday
A pleasant announcement is the one
that Brandon's Players, a premier
dramatic organization, will appear in
the Empress Theatre, Prince Rupert
starting Thursday, June 30. They will
present some of the latest and best
eastern successes, opening Thursday
night with "The Squaw Man" which
had such a great run in London and New

The play is one of the most realistic
of all western dramas and tells a story
absolutely true to life with no -ex*
aggeration or unreal climaxes or sensations.
All the other plays in the repertoire
of the Brandon Company are the best
the New York market affords, and
Prince Rupert playgoers are to be congratulated on a company of such merit
being brought to the city.
