Price, kive Cents BY UNMISTAKABLE VOTE CITY DECIDES TO STAY WET Scott Act is Voted Down by 103 Majority���There Were No Demonstrations-���How News Was Received at Local Option Headquarters���City Orderly SCOTT Aa LOST NOT VANQUISHED LOCAL OPTION LEAGUE LOOKS TO FIGHT AGAIN Pats ��� Resolution Appreciating Services of Dr. Spencer and Mr. Faria and Pledging Themaelves to Continue the Fight. After thc poll waa declared last night the (supporter* of the Local Option Association held a meeting in their rooms to discuss the situation As a result of their deliberations they framed and adopted unanimously the following resolution. "We.thc members of the Local Option LcKitue ot I'rince Rupert, desire to put on record our earnest appreciation of the services rendered to us in the present Local Option Campaign by the Rev. \l)t. Sp��nr,T and Mr. W J Faris. They have inspired us by their pres Pence, they h:,ve guided us by their jwi.sdom, they have furthered the Tern | pxranee Cause by their ett'ect've addresses Not only have our own !!ves been I dee'-ened by aasoc'at-on with these siron-; Christian men, but the life of I the ordinary citizen has been committed I more unreservedly to the fight for | better moral conditions. \Se follow them as they leave us to I k�� forth to the battle, with our waimesi I gratitude and most earnest prayers, and 1 pledge ourselves to continue the present I campaign and not rest satisfied until what seems tonight a defeat, will give place to a moai glorious victory for the cause of rghteousness and the Kingdom of God." Suspense waa not prolonged after the polis closed last night for the vote on the Local Option Question. Withm a very few moments after the ballot boxes had been brought in to the City Hall the count was made and the returning officer, J. Lome Mcl.aren, made known the figures aa follows: Total votes polled 441. Against the petition 272 For the petition 169. Majority 10.1. Official announcement of the result will be made formally on Friday. There Wa* No "Mafficking'' Contrary to the expectation of a number of citizens the decision that Prince Rupert is to remain a wet town for the next three years for certain, waa not made the occasion of any frantic jubilation. Satisfaction was expressed by a number of business men, but the orgies predicted by some didn't happen. Proposals were made previous to the election to have a dozen special constables sworn in, but the chief of police from previous experience of similar occasions was certain that special constables would be unnecessary, and his opinion was well justified. Would Not Rub It In There was some talk of burning an like rubbing it in, and the ceremony fell through. Prepared for Defeat For several minutes before the announcement was made the leaders of the Local Option Association sat at headquarters quietly awaiting the result. "I think we'll be beaten by a hundred votes," said Mr. G. R. Naden. His depressing prophecy was received with protests. "Last night I thought we'd win, but I fear now we can't," said Rev. F. W. Kerr. Dr. Spencer was silent. Gave Up All Hope Then an Opt insist representative looked in with the tiows that the first ballot box opened showed a majority against them of 28. "We'll never wipe that out," said Mr. Naden. A telephone call showed that the Skating Rink had gone against them aad all hope was resigned. "We'll meet in the Baptist church tonight at nine and talk over our plans for the future over a cup of coffee," spoke up Dr. Spencer without waiting for the other polls to be announced* That they had put up a good fight and that the odds were against them was frankly admitted by all. Not a Single Drunk Not a single case ol drunkenness or of any other nature whether the outcome of liquor or not, appeared in the police court today. Evidently the celebration of the "wet vote" was a pretty dry event. D'ARCY TATE CONFIDENT OF AMICABLE SETTLEMENT Counsel for G. T. P. Makes Statement to Optimist���Is Impressed With Firm But Businesslike Attitude of Mayor Stork and the City Council The annual meeting of the St. An drew's Society has been postponed until The sole purpose of Mr. D'Arcy Tate's present visit to Prince Rupert is, he says, to try to net the assessment difficulty settled up before the end of the year. At the elose of this morning's conference with the council he was optimistic. "Progress towards a satisfactory solution of the problem is certainly being made," he said to the Optimist. "That is all 1 can say at present regarding the negotiations in hand. I want *.o add, however, that I am much impre.-sed by the attitude of the Mayor and city- council in the discussion. They are firm for the interests of the city while anxious to treat with the G. T. P. in a f-iir and business like spirit. 1 (eel confident that ar. amicable settlement will be the outcome of the conferences." Still in Conference At the time of going to press a further discussion of the matter !s in progress in the Prince Rupert Club. Up till midnight last night the city council Bat !n private conference with Mr. D'Arcy Tate.

SENATOR FOR THE SOUTH *�����'�� Princ* Rupert Last Night on Laat Trip 0a her last trip north the P. C. boat Senator touched at Prince Rupert yesterday afternoon, unloaded a small fixiil cargo and then proceeded on her ^"y to Skagway.

Rally - Smoker 1S5ST will be held in Mobley's Committee Rooms Mclntyre Block, Ground Floor FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16th at 8 p.m., in the interests of Alderman F. H. Mobley The People's Candidate for Mayor Aa FRIENDS AND SUPPORTERS INVITED %\^mmW* On his return to Prince Rupert after his recent business trip to the south and prairie districts 0. M. Helgerson remark*- on thc progress of the city jn the way ol <treet grading and general improvement. During his stay down below Mr. Helgerson was actively engaged in connection with thr Port Mann interests of the firm of 0. M. Helgerson's Securities, Ltd., in which he holds the controlling interest. Property extending to 114 acres and reprinting Sr-'5,000 has Is.-.-n taken up at Port Mann by his company and will be placed on the market next month. Saskatoon has attracted (). M. Helgerson's attention. Since he was there three years ago the population has doubled as in many other prairie cities. "When 1 sec- such rapid antl sub substantial development on lhe prairies," said Mr. Helgerson. "I feel unbounded confidence in I'rinre Rupert with its land and water ��� resources and tians- portation growing so fast." In Saskatoon Mr. Helgerson secured a fine business block at .<4o,000 and took a sixty days' option on an adjoining property. Since his arrivai to Prince Rupert ho has received word from Saskatoon that a similar property about which he was enquiring has risen in value 'rom $'160 per foot then, to $800 per foot now. It is^Mr. Helgerson's intention to op<-n a brunch ottice in either Calgary or Saskatoon this coming summer, and thus to extend the field of his firm's enterprise substantially into the promising prairie district. His interest in Prince Rupert, the field of his recent successes, continues and he had hoped to be the owner of some more valuable insitie business property here on his arrival now, but the tram-action has not been completed. 'Every time I come lo Prince Kupert afler being away the city looks better and better," says Mr. Helgerson, "and I was kept busy everywhere I went while away, answering ens|uiries about the city's prospects. I did some 'missionary work' for I'rince Rupert every day, and did it gladly too." OnY*('hristmas day Mr. Helgerson expects to leave I'rince Rupert again for Vancouver to complete an important deal, and thence will proceed again lo Saskatoon lo tuke up the pro|ierty there upon which he holds an option al present.

Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry in the United Sum* department of agriculture, a very noted ac:entiat, haa written a letter warning his countrymen and women of the danger of the excessive uae of tea and coffee. He thinks it safer to forbid its uae to children. He aaya in regard to children, at least, therefore, the word prohibition is perhaps a better one to use than temperance. Coffee and tea drinking are habits to a certain extent, and aa such should be carefully watched. Dr. Wiley believes that if giving up the uae of either should produce a headache to call a halt. That caffein, the moat active if the substance* in bo-h tea and coflce. is recognised as one of thc habit forming drugs, is Dr. Wiley's opinion. The consequence' of over indulgence .ire nervousness, disordered digestion and a tendency to headache and de-1 preasion in the absence of the accustomed drug These are quite serious enough to make moderation imperative. -*"-* Confectionery [Confectionery FOR CHRISTMAS Lowney's and Ganong's Fancy Boxes of Chocolates for Christmas Gifts.

The fly carries microbes on its person and deposits them in milk or butter and meat and other articles of food from which they are transferred to the human body. It helps to disseminate typhoid, cholera, tuberculosis, summer d'arrhoca and other diseases. It should b" destroyed and this is not a did cult matter. Ita breeding placea are well known. But for this destruction cooperation is necessary. With Ihe housefly It is believed many of those diseases of northern countries which are most destructive to human life will disappear. The time to make preparations for ���he destruction or, better still, the extermination of "he housefly, is not in the summer, when the rapidity with which it breeds makes It almost impossible to remedy the evil, but In the winter. If all the lanes and yards were perfectly clean in the spring the summer plague ot (lies could be averted. The best and simplest fly-killer is a weak solution of formaldehyde in water ���two teaspoonfuls to the pint���placed in plates or saucers throughout the house. This is not offensive, and is practically non-poisonous except to insects. Tha Lonely Settler Of the small acta of kindness which women can do fcr others, few arc moro important than that of sending reading matter to lonely settlers. It ia quite impossible for any one who has always lived in a city to realize how much, during the winter, people in the country depend upon reading for entertainment. The long dark nights and 'he short stormy day* are indeed lonely and dreary unleas the settler has something to read. It ia pathetic to see how eagerly men and women on islands or in remote settlements await the arrival of the mail which comes, perhaps, once a month. Then there are the lighthouses and tbe deaerted canneries where one or two people apend the winter season, unable to leave their posts, even for a few houra. How welcorre to some of these people the late ma-guinea, which are s-> seldom looked at by their owners after the first week ia over would be. Household Hints To liani-h the odor of paint, place a piln full of cold water in the room. Toast wtfter is a southing and healing drink for sufferers from bronchitis. Cookbooks should be covered with waxed paper to keep then- in good condition. Whiting mixed to a cream with tepid water is excellent for dirty painted sur- facea. Sponging with hot vinegar will remove an objectionable shine from woolen garments. Olive oil, slightly warmed, is excellent as a meana of softening the skin around the nails. When aand cannot be had, bath brick can be used to scrub wooden articles, tables, etc. Pieces of rubber sponge in a mop handle will be found excellent for taking up dust, lint, etc., from hardwood floors or from rugs. They may be used dry or moistened. OUR DAILY RECIPE Plain Fruit Cake Cream half a cup of butter and one cup of sugar, add four eggs, one at a time, beating each in well, and hall a cup of molasses.

Thursday, Dec 15 THE MEANING OF THE VOTE No ono, not even the most ardent temperance advocate can doubt after yesterday's vote that it is the wish of the majority of the eligible voters of Prince Rupert that the licensed bar bc not abolished. Despite the light vote the substantial nature of tho "wet" majority, should make it easy for the temperance men to reconcile themselves to defea' and join in to help those who are pledged to see that tho license laws are properly enforced. A victory won by either side by only n few votes would have caused heartburning and dissatisfaction. The decisive ni.t ure of the result is one for which both parties may feel grattful. Tho campaign on both sides win pushed with vigor. No one need have recriminations on thst score. The speakers were given respectful and attentive hearings. Their arguments were well presented. Temptations to disorder were carefully avoided. It was a fair Hold of the temperance party's own choosing, and they cannot quarrel with the result. Yesterday's decision gives a guarantee to the liquor men that hey can look forward to being in possession fnr the next three years. Id all probability it will mean a term' veiy much longer than that. If, during those three years the license- holders conduct their houses in a manner that shows their desire to co-operate with the ifli'-crs of tho law, it is unlikely that for a long time another effort will be made to abolish licensed houses. Nothing can bo gained by denying tho meaning of yesterday's victory to the license-holders. It clearly showed that the majority of the voters who are Interested in the issue prefer license lo no-license. It ia doubtful whether any of the ititluencmbrought to bear in the conflict, save that of Mr. William Blakemore, whose clever generalship accomplished even more than hia speeches, were of more than negligible value. Their cry "A vote fur the Scott Act, is a vote against the government," in the few cases where it was heeded probably did more harm than good. There were many who voted against the Scott Act who would not vote far tho government. On the other hand, the campaign haa not been wasted to the temperance party. It meant a rally of forces and a concentration of opinion that cannot ever in the future be ignored. No future mayor of the city or future set of police commissioners can be blind to it. The contest has assured the citizens of a period of law enforcement, even in the remote possibility of the mayoralty descending to a weak and wire-pulled candidate. Fnr one other thing the temperance party may be profoundly thankful. The result of the vote haa absolved some of them from pledges of the most stupendous character. Had the petition carried they were pledged to clean up the town. Tbe ardors of the campaign would have proved trifling to that greater task that would have fallen upon them. The adverse vote does nor release them from responsibility as citizens *o sec that the law is enforced, but ;t cer-a'nly free* them from the special responsibilities .,ome of their leaders assumed in the heat nf the conflict. Yesterday as the punsters remarked was a sure enough wet day in Prince Rupert. St. Swithin and John Barleycorn were in the ascendent. It was a fair contest, well fought, fairly won and honorably lost. Now that it is over, let us join hands again, and then to our several labors in building up Prince Rupert.

According to Mrs. Hall, list spring she received a letter from Mead & Bradley, lawyers, who gave their address as the ninth lloor ol tho Fulton building, Denver. Th ���)��� informed her that Mrs. Rowe had died here leaving her an estate valued at $8000. Under the terms of thc will, they declared, they were compelled to hold the estate in trust for three years, paying the income over to Mrs. Hall. The first payment would be made February Hi, 1911. Another letter relative to the estate followed about two weeks after the first letter had been received and the the correspondence ceased. Receiving an answer tn the letter, which she sent the lawyers, Mrs. Hall finally decided to come to Denver. Upon her arrival here, she discovered that there was no Fulton building and consequently no ninth floor; that there was no such firm of lawyers as Mead Si Bradley; and that there waa no record MINING KINGS COMING NORTH GREAT INTEREST TAKEN IN SKEENA DISTRICT Mr. H.

Dec. 12.���Son of a wealthy mother, stepson of a consolidated stock exchange broker and a few years ago a prize-winning Sunday School scholar, Thomaa Windlass lies in St. Mary's hospital of Passaic, N.

Despite his cleverness Wandlass has ���pent eight of his 30 years in four different institutions and should the bullets that Theodore Tapley fired into him not prove fatal, he will probably bc far past middle age when he again emerges from prison doors.

Seattle, Dec. 13.���A wireless message received here at noon from Valde/. said that the government launch Fort Liscurr had landed there with a nurrber of passengers from the Olympia which was pounded to pieces on a reef near Bligh Island this morning. The rest of the paasengers, according to the wireless, are safely housed at Kilcmar. Not a single life was loat in thc wreck, the message said. The Olympia salied 'rom Cordova at six o'clock Saturday ni<ht, having ar- rved from Seattle earlier in the day. She carried a number of passengers who previously had Bailed on the steamship Northwestern, which went aground at False Bay, San Juan Island, December 2. The niglu was clear, but a 56-mile gale was blowing when the ship started for Valdez. It ia believed that she struck the reel at midnight, as .. wirelesss call for aid was pickesl up at1 the naval wireless opertting station shortly afterward. The call was answered immediately and Operator Hayts. aboard the wrecked vessel, flashed the news that the Olympia had struck the reef and that high .-cas were breaking over her. In the last measage received here from the Olympia, Hayes said that the lifeboats were ready for launching but thut they would only be taken to as a last resort. At the time the passengers were calm in the face of peril und had decided to remain on board ship and await aid, unless the craft began to go to pieces.

IN MEMORY OF LATE KING Vancouver Daughters of Empire Will Erect a Fountain Marvelous Dividend Achievements The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York paid in dividends in 1909 the sum of $11,005,914.96, an amount without precedent in this country or in any other. The Company has also apportioned for payment ol dividends in 1910 the enormous sum of $12,401,- 752.11, an amount greater by nearly two millions than any other company has ever paid in a single year. Indeed, of 157 companies doing business in the United States, only 12, including industrial, had, up to January 1st, 1909, paid during their entire existence as large a total in dividends as the sum apportioned by The Mutual Life for 1910 R��5AD THE OPTIMIST In order to commemorate the reign of his late Majesty King Edward VII., the Vancouver Daughters of the Empire desire to erect a drink-'ng fountain. A communication waa received at the special meeting of Vancouver city council Monday from Mrs. Henshuw, the secre tary of the organization, to this etTect. The Daughters of the Empire suggested that the fountain should be erected in front of the C. P. R. depot, or at the corner of ('limbic and Hastings, or t'arrall and Hastings, and asked the council to decide how much ground could be allotted for the purpose. The council agreed that the mayor should communicate with the C. P. R. and ask them if there.was a satisfactory place for the fountain. queen Chsrlotte Island.

She Waa thc Boss A Suffragette 'way down in Gloucester Married a fellow named Foucester; Two years later she died And he said as he sied; "Well, anyway, I never boucester." An applicant for the post of mistress in a country school was asked: "What is your position svith regard to the whipping of children?" She replied: "My usual position is in a chair with the child held firmly across my knee, face downwards." "Loidy, you said 'no questions arsked." "I haven't asked you any questions, you thief! I've merely said you stole the dog. Here's your reward. Now, got nut, you scoundrel, before I throw a dipper of scalding water on you!"

It is told of King George that when he was Prince of Wales, he was once traveling incognito on an omnibus, when the driver, having some trouble with one of his horses, shouted to it: "Come up, yer Royal 'Ighness! Come up, will yer?" 1 The Prince asked the 'bus man why he called his horse "Your Royal Highness." "Well, sir," said the man, "that horse is so 'orty and lazy, I call 'im Yer Royal 'Ighness." The Prinr e asked no more questions. Talk About Peraonalltiaa! The utter depravity and ines-K>nsi- bility of the "Weakly Wail" of South Kort George is displayed in its last issue when It stated that thc petition to the government for thc improvement of the Nechaco channel was not generally supported. 'In explanation be it noted that the Wail is in charge of an "importation" in the absence of its youthful dad.) In the presence of said "importation" the editor of the Wail signed the petition and heartily endorsed ita object. His signature was accompanied by over twenty citizens and business men of South Fort George. To make good on the Wail staff app'icanU must be full fledged disciples of Ananias, utterly devoid of reason, and able to throw a fit and frolh at thc mouth at thc mere mention of Kort George. Thc "importation" is making good, though his initial work is perhaps a little raw. The new disciple has overlooked one necessary lualification���a good memory. But his three subscribers have stil' a glimmering hope that he may yet attain thc heights of perfection that will put the old original Ananias on the list of has-beens. The sheet in question has no standing whatever in thc province or community and is an outcast in its own village. Were its perpetrators responsible parties il would long since have been brought to account.���Fort George Tribune.

Department of Marine and Fisheries, Ottawa. Can., 8th Nov., 1910. 178-181 The Prince George made her debut lor winter sen-ice in Prince Rupert yesterday afternoon and the reception accorded her waa in perfect keeping with the excellent impression which she created. As a bister ship to the Piince Rupert which paid her last adieu just a week ago today, she has the same graceful lines and elegant equipment as the "Rupert." Captain J. E. L. Robertaon, who is one of the bes_t acquainted men with the waters of the north Pacific, and one of the most popular men wearing an officer's uniform, brought his craft to the wharf. As his vessel steamed up the harbor her beautiful proportions wore shown to advantage. There waa en unusually large crowd at the wharf waiting the arrival of the boat, and in order to avoid congestion it waa found expedient to bring out the barrier. Mr. D'Arcy Tata Arrives The arrival of the Prince George had a special interest for the people of Prince Rupert. It was not the first time the vessel had come within their domain, but this time it brought with it one who will have much to do with negotiating the moat important iasue that baa yet divided the opinions of the people of the city. With the exception of the few people who were down meeting friends, Mr. D'Arcy Tate was "the observed of all observers." Haa Bean Refitted Since she was laat here the accommodation arrangements of the Princ George have been altered so that greater facility is afforded for people who desire suites of rooms; and these suites are so arranged that the maximum of privacy is attained along with the maximum of con for . As regards the comfort of passnegers everything possible is done to achieve it, and with so much success that all the passengers I who made the first trip up in her are delighted. The catering is of a high claaa order and squares with the other qualifications of the ship. In replacing the Prince Rupert by the Prince George the G. T. P. are not at al) likely to be censured on the ground of paying leas attention to the needs of the travelling public. Id every respect the Prince George is equal to her sister ship and in a 'ew respects she has got something on her. Brought Many Voter* While Mr. D'Arcy TaU was perhaps the most important personage which the vessel brought to the city there were others whose presence could scarcely be ignored. There were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Henning, the young couple who were recently married in the city, returning home from their honeymoon trip. Mr. 0. M. Helgerson was also on board, returning from Vancouver where he had been in connection with his extensive business. Many of the pas sengera hurried away to the polling booths to record their votes. "1 wish she had kept away another hour," one temperance worker was heard to remark to another when he saw the haste with which some of the passengers sought the polling booth. JACK COLLINS IS DEAD Succumbs to Typhoid Fevar at Kitselas By telegram form Kitselas yesterday word was received in the city that Jack Collins died there yeaterday at 11 a.m. {from typhoid (ever. Collins waa an engineer, and waa employed in eng'neer- jing work at Kitselas. In the same capacity he had worked in Prince ! Rupert some time ago, and was known to a number of friends in the city. 1 Deceased had also been aasoriated with ! the Provincial Police Force a number of year*, ago. STEAMER SINKS $ IN QUICKSANDS FATE OF THE PORTLAND WHICH STRUCK A SUNKEN ROCK Captain Moore Teatifiea That Ship Waa in Usual Course When She Struck���The Rock Had Not Been Charted. Seattle, Dec. 1.1.���That the steamship Portland, wh'rh struck a sunken rock between Martin and Kyad ialands as she was entering Katalla harbor is now slowly sinking to destruction in quicksand, developed in the testimony of Capt. Franz S. Moore before the local board of steamship inspectors. The Portland was beached at the mouth of the Katalla river when the tide waa in. When the tide went out the steamer began sinking in the mud and when Capt. Moore left the scene had settled twelve feet. From his testimony it is believed that the vessel is doomed to disappear completely. Captain Moore testified that when the boat struck she was following her usual course. He had taken her over that course many times before, he stated, and was wrecked on a sunken rock that bad not been charted. PRESBYTERIAN CLUB Interesting Address Last Night by F. A.
