Price Five Cents THE GATEWAY TO THE INTERIOR You know what a transcontinental railway does for a country. It makes the price of land soar up. Itjis thc means of crenting new industries. It brings the markets of the world to the fanner where be secures top-notch prices. And in a province like British Columbia the farmer is n man to be reckoned with. Hc does not have to sell his produce, the other fellow comes to him. And why? Because the numerous industries in the province, the mines, the timber, and thc fisheries, etc., create local markets which have to be supplied. Prince Rupert the Hub of the District Prince Rupert has sprung into its vigorous existence of today as a result of the coming of the Transcontinental Railway, the same great creative influence which is making a thriving and populous agricultural and mining district of the wide and wealthy territory tributary to I'rince Rupert. I'rince Kupert is the hub of thot great district, the starting off place for the thousands who are pouring in to settle in its rich valleys each year, and yet it is hardly sufficiently well realized, especially by those thousands, that Prince Rupert is the natural, and the best outfitting and supply point for the whole vast territory of which it is the doorway. How many incoming settlers have lost time and money, and put themselves to much greater inconvenience through outfitting at the southern centres under the mistaken notion that equipment and supplies are much more costly in I'rince Rupert, or perhaps even thinking that supplies cannot be obtained here nt all. Often after all their inconvenience and outlay for transportation such incomers have realized that much of their equipment is unsuitable, while the right supplies could have been purchased readily anil reasonably in I'rince Kupert. As a matter of fact ���and the fact cannot be too emphatically impressed upon nil incomers-every possible item required for the thorough equipment of settler, prospector, miner, surveyor or enterprising pioneer-business builder bound for the upspringing interior towns along the I'rand Trunk Railway, ran be)bought, and Imught to the very best advantage, right here in Prince Rupert. Prince Rupert Merchants Are Progressive Enterprising mcrchnnts who have got beyond the pioneer stage by very long nnd very up-to-dnte strides, hnve made this (Missible. They hnve paved the way for the pioneers of the interior well knowing thnt their return will come richly ami generously to them with the development by these pioneers of the rich natural resources of thnt interior. Prince Rupart expects much of the superb territory tributary to it'as terminus of the (innt Transcontinental. And Prince Kupert is doing much for the development of that territory by furnishing through her merchants easily, efficiently, and inexpensively, the materials and equipment necessary for the men who nre helping on the development of farm, mine or fishery. Big Wholesale Houses to Meet The Needs All thnl is required in the way of foodstuffs, clothing, tools, conveyances and camp equipment, can be readily obtained at the various stores in the city. The fact thnt there exists close by the waterfront three huge five-atorey warehouses of Messrs. Stewart & Mobley, selling foodstuffs and dry goods, Messrs. J. Piercy Morris & Co., Belling dry goods, and Ilie Kelly-Douglas Co., selling supplies of all kinds wholesale, to the many stores in the city and district is evidence of the truth that goods nre brought into Prince Kupert in such large quantities as to make it easily poeetbla for Prince Kupert merchants to retail them at prices very often oelow the cost of the same gooda in the southern cities certainly nol above tlr' cost, nnd most certainly fnr below thnt cost plus freight chnrges. Therefore it pays the would-be settl to outfit at Prince Rupert rather thnn nt points seveml hundred miles ferther south. Local Merchants Understand the Conditions One of the Important facts iu regard to outfitting in I'rince Rupert is that liere you get the advantage of the experience of merchants who know the requirements of the distriet thoroughly, men who have been over the ground themselves, who have equipped hundreds of pioneer pnrties nlready and who are suonlving settlers contii-uallv. In touch regularly with the men who use the goods, these merchants of of ours on the spot at Prime Rupert enn snve the incoming settler mnny ami many a tlollur besides much less worry nnd vexation. Getting the Goods Through " On Time " Conditions of trnnsportntion of supplies for up-river points are at certain seasons irregular, and over and ov se" ler who has unwisely purchased his supplies "down below" has suffered through the do- "ving..fl'is consignment simply because the "down below" merchant does not know the best way to (Continued on the next page) that er G.T.P.

"In designing a system of water works for the city or Prince Rupert it is necessary to provide for a population which will probably reach 20,- IKIII in live years, and the foundation of u distribution system which can be expanded to serve a population Ol 60,- in the future." With these words City Engineer Davis commences his full report un thi . Woodworth Lake water supply scheme. The tntiil coat of ihe scheme amounts to just over $480,000 of which $330,000 are for the supply main between Woodworth Lake and the city. Woodworth Luke is siiua'ed on the mainland about seven miles north east of Acropolis Xill. The lake is :i:ili feet above low tide, it is from 160 to 200 feet deep, covers about 454 acres, and 'contains an abundance of the purest j water from a watershed of nearly ten square mihs of mountain country with snowy summits which you see Irom the tow nsite. Owing to the climatic condi ions fo 'the coasl ihe run-:,IV from lhc lake j varies from 7.7 cubic feet per second - in dry seasons to 571 cubic feet per second after heavy rains. Hy building a rock and timber dam at the outlet lof the lake the surface can*be raised 80 | feet. Later on as t he city grows wealthier, a concrete dam can be constructed | and the head of water increased if need : be. The supply pipe line comes through i a rock tunnel at Woodworth Lake along ithe mountain side till just above the east end of Lake Shawatlans. Here it descends the shore of Lake Shawatlans which it follows for about one and a half miles thence crossing a low neck of land to tide-water and over Shawatlans passage a distance of MIO feet, to thc townsite where it delivers into Acropolis N'ill Reservoir. A supply main IM inches in diameter with a dam of the proposed height at Woodworth Lake will supply at Acropolis Hill four and a half million gallons per day. As this amount of water will not be required for a number of years it is proposed for the sake of saving to reduce this size to Hi inches at Eleventh avenue after passing Montre- I al Hill. This will mean a delivery of | two million gallons per day which is [sufficient for a population of 60.000, I As the city grows the supply can be j easily Increased, and with a distributing reservoir-on Montreal Hill enough for a population of 60,000 can In- provided. Fire protection has been tin primary .object in view in planning the distribution system. A million gallons of water ���tored in tlie Acropolis Hill reservoir would keep sixteen ordinary tire hose streams going tu lull pre sun- for over six hours, and the whole supply from Woodworth Lake would remain available for domestic use. Ii is imperative that any parts of the proposed work which : will improve tin- present lire protection of the city should in undertaken at the earliest possible moment recommends ilu- City Engineer. This would mean Ithe completion of tin Acropolis Hill Reservoir ami the laying of the mains covering tlie present oppuloUS sections. ] The reservoir could be Riled from the existing water supply and the million gallons held in reserve for lee in ease of lire. The works proposed are substantial and busting, Bays the City Engineer, and the cost of operation and maintenance will be as low as possible for any system. "Holding Irs owi^ J. HIRSCII & SONS Limited, MIIMKI.M.

Tin- motion to ibis effect was I made by Alderman Newton and seconded by Alderman Morrissey. There is no lack of confidence implied in the efficiency of Ihe City Engineer, but the i council fell that a scheme of such magnitude and importance should not be launched without the assistance and advice of another reliable engineer.

April 1 A SPRING GREETING After a week devoted to the strenuous task of moving our machinery and equipment to its permanent home in the new Optimist building, our paper is able to make a new appearance. No better augury could be found than that we reappear on the first day of spring, with the opportunity and intention to enter upon a new lease of life. Until after these words are done into type it will be impossible to determine the precise character of our first appearance, but great things are planned, so that within a very little while the whole character of the paper will uu- dergo a rapid metamorphosis. Perhaps not only the type, make-up, size and quality of our newspaper will undergo change, but even the namt. It is intended to give the public of Prince Rupert, and the outside world who are interested in Prince Rupert, the very best paper that it is possible for money and brains to produce. It will be a bright, breezy newspaper for the local reader, and a publicity agent, giving the outside world reliable informationjabout northern British Columbia. A number of new features have been arranged which will show themselves in a few days, additions to the plant and staff are being made, an expert] advertising service is being laid at the disposal of our rdvertisers, and "ithe Optimist will lead the way in the new campaign of publicity development'and prosperity for the Prince Rupert district. NOTES AND COMMENTS The folk who were up early this morning were well rewarded. The rays of the warm sun streaming over Montreal Hill, chasing away the ^suspicion of sharpness in the air, and lighting up the fir-covered hilltops across the harbor made a picture to be chronicled. Where was the Optimist artist then? On learning that four ladies will hold up the Queen's train at the coronation the Montreal Herald somewhat irreverently remarks that they might get Jsome pointers from Bill Miner. The authorities did well to show that law must be observed] in JallJ labor disputes. Any man or number of men have a perfect right to decline ,to go|to work whether offered 37 cents or 37 dollars an hour. That is theirjright. But they have'no right under the law that they helped to create, tojpreventjjany other man or men from working at a rate of pay that looks good to them. H. F. McRae Teleg. Address : Raemac.

THE PRINCE RUPERT 0 P T I M I S f" ALBERTA MINERS STRIKE OVER SIX THOUSAND IDLE Men Flung Down Picks and Shovels When Agreement Expired���Thousand Ton Output Per Day is Stopped���Business Not Yet Affected with the others. Two thousand four hundred are employees of the Crow's Nest Pass Company. Only One Mine Working. The men of Hosmer, Coleman, Blair- more, Frank, Lille, Bellevue, Maple Leal, Passburg, Hillcrest, Burmis, Lethbridge, Diamond City, the Royal Collieries, Canmore, and Bankhead are all idle. Only one mine in the district is working. That is Corbin, where the agreement does not expire until May. The mines closed down were producing a thousand tons a day. Business in the district is not immediately affected as the long drawn out negotiations has rather discounted the effect of the atrike. Special to Optimist Fernie, B.C., April 1���Six thousand five hundred miners laid down their picks and shovels and walked out of the mines today in the district governed by the agreement regarding wages and other regulations affecting miners ami operators respectively. The time limit of this agreement expired today, and as has been expected for some time the men immediately struck work. Over Six Thousand Out Six thousand and fifty of the strikers arc members of the United Mine Workers of America.

OUR MOTOR FIRE ENGINE WINS PRAISE OF CRITICS Had a Trial Test on Toronto Streets in Presence of Ontario Fire Chiefs���Is Now on Its Way to Prince Rupert���Description of the New Engine t l THE .���^.+ Royal Hotel Cor. Third Avenue and Sixth St. The Finest Itt��ims. The Is-st equipped m nnd steiiiu lient.sl. Hot nnd cold Imlhs. Diniiur room and restaurant : Prince Rupert's famous Are-fighting I auto, after many delays is now completed and on its way hitlu-i. to do duty. In" ilie East it has attracted a ureal ileal of lU.emiiili, the tire chiefs tf the principal Ontario cities journeying lo Toron- I in len days ago, to attend b grand public ] performance of lhe iiuio on the BtTeeta j of the Ontario capital. Judging by I he account R in t he Toron 11 j papers, the engine made a great im- I pression on lhc lirt experts and on the I Toronto public, and proved an excellent advertisement for I'rince Rupeit, The following is ihe account of the apparatus, which together with a picture of the engine appeared on the front page of .he Toronto World of March 22. Description of thc Engine An auto chemical hose wagon similar to the three which Chief Thompson has asked the city to provide for the purchase of in the estimates of the tire1 department, ai about $8000 each, this) , year, arrived in the city yesterday and received a try-out. It has been con-1 BtrUCted for the use of the lire de-j I pan ment in the new western city of i j Prince Kupert, and it hits been demonstrated for the benefits of the heads i of tlie fire departments of a number of Ontario cities. This afternoon it will |start on its way to the growing city of the wesl. Chief Thompson, in company with lhe representative of the manufacturers, took the mayor and board of control for a spin' yesterday noon, and they made a record trip from the city hall along Queen street to University avenue, up the avenue to the parliament buildings, and back to the city ball by College and Yonge streets. The trip only took 15 minutes. Massive, but Speedy Tbe truck is a massive affair of Bteel build throughout, making 7 ions of dead weight that require an 80-ho**je-power engine to propel. The engine is a (>- cylinder and capable of driving lining bulk of fire-fighting apparatus along a level stretch at 40 miles an hour This high power also gives lhe machine the ability Co climb hills in a manner calculated to make a healthy horse look pick. Combined with this high speed is a biction brake that instantly binds the double back wheels antl stops ihe iruck while ihe team would be thinking about it. These and many other advantages are pointed out by the chiefs, who are all enthusiastic about the metal monster. They claim that with the advent of these machines there will be no more tired horses: i'i at every man will be available at a lire, no man needing to stay and watch frisky horses, no horses will have to be hitched, and no smell of the equities will annoy the fastidious around the lire halls. An All-Round Equipment As well as 1200 feet of hose, the truck carries a 4-gallon chemical tank, two Babcock extinguishers, a 12 foot ladder, and a 21 foot extension ladder, thus making it fully equipped to deal singlehunded with small tires. About len men will be required to handle it. It is estimated that it will last from 20 to 80 years, as the daily run would not average over 4 miles, and everything in a fire hall is kept in perfect order. It looks as if Toronto will have to "pony up" the price if she would keep up with the times. W. L. BARKER Architect Second avenue and Third street Over Westenhaver Bros.' Office.

Letters to the Editor Chief McCarvell's Denial The following letter which has come to hand during the week explains itself. In iusiice to Ex-Chief McCarvell, we might add that the information about the Rainbow incident was not supplied by any present or paBt official but was obtained in the ordinary course of news-gathering.���Ed. Dear Sir,���In reference to an article appearing in your paper, dated March the 14th, which has just come to my notice, reporting a speech made by Alderman Newton in the Council Chamber on the night preceding, re sending for H. M. S. "Rainbow" or militia to quell the imaginary labor difficulty in tne city. He is reported as having stated ihat the secret meeting was Back in the old space again after an absence of three weeks. We couldn't Btay out, because, no matter what it costs, we must talk to you about our business���must get and hold your interest. We afe enthusiastic about our business. Ever notice that when anyone is interested in any subject or concern that he just HAS to talk about it? That's our attitude about our business, we Bimply must talk about it (of course in season and in reason) and we feel, too, that we have something worth talking about ��� some message from time to time that is bound to be of interest to the shoppers of Prince Rupert, particularly to the ladies. The ladies, as yon know, (bless 'em) do the shopping���the largest part of it���of the world, and they have to know where to buy and buy "right," when the different goods that the changing seasons demand have arrived at the stores, and so on, and it is the mission of the advertiser to keep them posted along these lines. Whether you buy from us to-day or to-morrow or whenever you DO buy, we want to tell you and convince you that we are the people to buy from. No use hiding our light under a bushel on the chance that you'll discover it for yourself when we have the light of this space to throw on the screen of your mind and create therin the association of ideas which means that when you think of Dry Goods, Ready-to-wear for Women and Children, Chinaware, Crockeryware, Fancy Goods, Etc, you think of "Wallace's ano you go to "Wallaces" when you want anything in these lines���and find there a good store of goods and good service ulwaya at your command. We have received many new things for the spring business lately, and we'll tell oou more about them in a day or so. H. S. Wallace Co., Ltd. called by the ex-Chief of Police asking that Red Coats or the militia be requisitioned for. This statement is absolutely untrue as I never did ask for, or even suggest, anything of this kind, also that after resigning my fusii ion as Chief of Police in your city immediately gave this information to the "Optimist . This is also another of Newton's fabrications and is in my opinion, done for the purpose of clearing his own skirts. This matter was never divulged by me to the "Optimist" or its representatives, or to any other person until after reading the malicious statements made by Alderman Newton. Furthermore, in view of these deliberate falsehoods made by him, I feel in justice to myself that this matter should be placed in its true light before the Association, and if they should wish to know exactly what position this so-called friend of labor took at this meeting in sending for the "Rainbow" I shall be only too pleased to furnish them with the cold facts.

ORME The Pioneer Druggitt PHONE 82 I i '!, This advertisement clipped from the Boston Post gives the story of the wonderful development now going on in Canada. Look out for British Columbia. The profits to investors in Town lots in all Grand Trunk Divisional and Terminal Points will astound the world. Buy now. Ask Uncle Jerry for price lists and full information. LAST YEAR REAL ESTATE OWNERS IN Western Canada MADE $100,000,000 From the most accurate figures obtainable, over One Hundred Million Dollars was made by real estate owners in growing cities and towns of Western Canada last year. This vast wealth was exclusive of improvements and represented actual increase in land values alone. Original records gathered by the Winnipeg Free Proas prove that in eight western Canadian Cities the value of land alone���not counting improvements��� increased 662 per cent, for the last five years-an annual increase of 112 per cent, for each city during the last five years. These figures indicate that investments in live, growing cities in Western Canada are as sate and sure as an investment can be, and that 100 per cent, profit each year is almost a certainty. THIS YEAR THEY WILL UNDOUBTEDLY MAKE $100,- 000,000 MORE You have an opportunity now to participate in these immense profits by being one of the original purchasers of town lots in the Grand Trunk Pacific addition to thc faat growing Western Canadian cities, otherwise known as Gund Trunk Pacific Railway Dniskn Points No. 23 WATROUS, MELVILLE, WA1NWRIGHT, B1GGAR The Grand Trunk Pacific offers in these splendidly located, fast growing Division Points and in the townsite of Tofield an opportunity for the investor to share in the large profits that are sure to accrue aa a result of the rapid and substantial growth that characterizes Grand Trunk Pacific Diviaion Points and well located cities and towns in Western Canada. The Grand Trunk Pacific does not offer townsites or additions so located as to make investments in them of Questionable value. The object in selling these lots at the low prices at which they arc offered is to encourage the upbuilding of these cities from which the Grand Trunk Pacific will derive vastly more benefit th in from the sale of lots. Now is the time to buy. Choice lota range from $100 upwards on easy payments of 10 per cent, cash and 10 per cent, a month. You make your purchase direct and secure title from the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company. Write for literature and make your selection while the prices are extremely low and the possibilities unlimited.

Number twenty-three is sometimes facetiously called the 'skidoo' number. Some of my friends may ask why I don't take the hint and stop these talks. Well, if they could come to my office and see the increased business my office is doing since the Prince Rupert people are better acquainted with me, they would use my methods themselves. A friend asked Dr. Parkhurst, the famous preacher of New York, why he wrote for the New York American, 'that rotten sheet,' he called it. Dr. Parkhurst said that the sheet isn't half as rotten when he writes for it as it would be if he did not. My method of direct advertising tells you clearly about my methods and plans. 1 am not strong on frills and pictures. Advertising space is too valuable to be wasted. Incidentally I may add I know what good advertising is and that is thc reason I am using it. How about boosting Prince Rupert? Now, altogether, let's say a kind word about our wonderful city to at least one friend who is deprived of the pleasure of being here in person. There is one thing worse than knocking and that is to be silent. Let's shout so that everybody hears: "Prince Rupert���thc San Francisco of Canada." On January 15th and 22nd, Eastern papers on Jan. 15th, Western papers on Jan. 22nd, our Prince Rupert Opportunity advertisement appeared in papers in New York, Boston, Providence, Kansas City, Denver, San Francisco, Los Angeles, St. Paul and 37 Sunday issues of big U.S. daily newspapers in all. On Feb. 25th our Prince Rupert advertisement appeared in 26 Canadian daily newspapers. Has a Free Information Department for strangers in the City and for nonresidents by correspondence.
