GLAD WELCOME WILFRID A LIQUOR CRUSADE Authorities Are Making Move to Put Down the Selling of Intoxicants Time of Police Court is Occupied With Bearing of Cases or Alleged Iiifiuctioii The police authorities have been busy for several weeks past collecting evidence against what are commonly known as "blind-pigs." The result has been that the time of Police Magistrate Carss has been quite fully occupied with the hearing of evidence relative to whether liquor is being sold or not by alleged violators of the law. On Wednesday morning evidence was taken on informations laid against Edward Morrison of "the bowling ally on Second avenue, auu against D. McRae of the Dominion Hotel. A. M. Manson appeared as the city prosecutor, while L. W. Patmore appeared for the defence in each case. The evidence was very contradictory. In the case of Morrison, the evidence of the prosecution was that a bottle of whiskey was procured upon application, while the defence put up was that the police officer was a friend of the defendant and he had got the liquor from a club on Ihe officer stating he was not feeling well. In the case of the Dominion, the evidence of the proprietor was that he did not sell to the police officer who swore he got it from him.* Incidentally the strength of "beer- Ine," which Mr. .McRae said was the only drink lie sold, came up. This was claimed to be non-intoxicating, but the police magistrate doubted whether under the act this could be taken as warranting its sale. There was a doubt In his mind as to whether any alcoholic liquors could be sold. The decision of the police magistrate was deferred until this morning, when he found both guilty. In the case of E. Morrison he inflicted a fine of $5 and costs, with an ad- (Continued on Page Eight) PURE MEAT CRUSADE Medical Health Officer is to See That Law is Enforced in City. Mayor Stork Does Not Think the Council Should Devise Ways of Bringing in Food The health officer of the city reported to the council on Wednesday evening on the subject of ensuring pure meat in the city. He explained that being carried in the open on ship board on the way here it soon became tainted. He suggested as one means of overcoming the difficulty that the meat dealers should see that their was cold storage provided on the steamers carrying the meat. Another way out of it would be, t6 have the animals shipped In alive and slaughter houses built here. This might not be advisable in view of the fact that there were not the proper facilities for disposing of the refuse. His worship said that It was not of much concern to the council how meat was brought here. All that they were concerned about was to see that the meat sold was in good shape. The bylaw was referred to and it was found that food unfit for use might be seized. Aid. Hilditch suggested that the health officer be Instructed that the council expected the bylaw enforced. Aid. Pattullo suggested that the mayor take this up with the health officer and suggest that the laws be enforced on consultation with tin city solicitor. &AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA&AAAAAAAAAAi/< :•********•: * * * sr I* *J« *I* 'I- *t* *** *•* *** »J» * * * * * * * * SIR WILFRID LAURIER, G.C.M.G., PC. :«<£».». .:<•>♦;;.*>*>.>> $<$Hg» * *> *> * ♦•« ••«♦;♦ << .j. .> ♦jug* .5. •>•*••> *•« ♦> »;«.;. *j..;. ♦;♦ $ *;♦ .;*.•> ♦♦„.;, «gt »>♦> ♦;■» ♦> *> ♦> ■>:« *> *J FARTHEST WEST WILL GIVE ROYAL RECEPTION Saturday, 2 p.m.—Sir Wilfrid Laurier and party arrive at G.T.P. wharf, .Saturday, 2.15 p.m.—Presentation of addresses in front of Provincial Buildings, Saturday evening — Banquet at Prince Itupert Inn.

There is the unique on from th city council, one equally novel from the French Canadian residents of Prince Rupert, a collection of views of the city from the Daughters of the Empire, and an illuminated address from the Indians. The latter address, it is announced, will be one iof the most unique of all.

Sir Wilfrid is looking remarkably well after such a long tour nnd it is evident that the trip has done him good. To Intimate friends he expressed his pleasurable anticipation with respect to the voyage along the Pacific coast and the opportunity of seeing Northern British Columbia. Yesterday was a very busy one for the Prime Minister. In the forenoon he received a number of deputations and later accompanied by Hon. Ceo. P. Graham, Minister of Railways, and E. M. MacDonald, M.P. for Picfon, attended the general conference of the Methodist church where they were heartily received. The visitors delivered brief uddreses. cum-' 'ii Party In the nf roc n a garden party was given a: i~'.vernment House by Hon. T. W. Paterson, the Lieutenant Governor and .Mrs. Paterson.

Aid, Naden was not opposed to trying tho experiment of day labor on this small contract, though he did not feel satisfied that it would be cheaper.

The Flowers Sent to Dr. Crippen Might Be Used in Worse Way ffiocher de Bonle Is iteported to Have Shown Galena of Excellent Character The summer's prosperity in the wieinity of Hazelton is being at- Boded with most gratifying results »»d next summer should see a derided rush into that section of the province which will be easily reached then by rail. There has been an ilwence of reports from the Hazelton country of fabulous finds which tends to establish more confidence ia the character of the ore. Its development must mean much for Prince Rupert. Quite a wave of excitement was created when W, S. Sargent return- osl to town from the hills with news at finding a vein of galena ore on Rocher do Boule mountains, seven ar eight miles south of town and throe or four miles from the railway Une, says the Omlneca Herald of Hazelton. He said the ledge Is from fftree to eight feet wide and appears tor a thousand feet in length and (thai pieces of ore similar to the samples brought to town can be broken off at any point. He and his part- aers have located a group of seven afkums in a formation of quartzite sod gra. He, i u ny oor>'Yry aik»n lis soon as Sarg nt tcld of h's linrt aeveial prospectors left foi til' scene and that part of the :tinge will be imoroughly looked over in the text Hew weeks. Frank Brown, returning Friday wening from the scene of the new .itrike, says it is one of the biggest ttlngs in the way of a raw prospect lihat he has ever seen. The vein fi 11- cing has been worn away and the rails left standing, granite on one aodfi. and quartzite on the other. He iaraversed the ledge for a thousand tfeet and for the entire distance where the ore was not covered by nfebris, good galena could be broken aff at any point. Brown considers the indications favorable for more iJiscoveries and looks to see a camp nf importance opened up in that vl- ctinity, providing always that the sil- ccwr values are as good as the general average throughout the district. The ladies of Quebec are criticised for sending flowers to Dr. Crippen. The good women might do worse, says the Vancouver News-Advertiser. If flowers exert any influence over the fugitive it should not be a vicious influence. , There may be in Quebec many persons snut in poor homes who would appreciate such gifts more than Dr. Crippen. Perhaps also Dr. Crippen may misinterpret the gift as a tribute of admiration and approval of all that he is said to have done. But It is possible thai Hie beauty and purity of the flowers may bring bitter thoughts and aspirations to the mind of the prisoner, even though he be guilty, and that some .ague regrets for the past nay come upon him. hi the open country the flowei>, are made to bloom impartially fo* the hardened criminal and the sain*, of God. So let the women send them to Dr. Crippen, but it would do well not to forget others who cannoi go abroad to see them, who have not had the advantage of a spectacular arrest and are not awaiting a sensational trial. SPORTS QUITS RING-SIDE "The Jeffries-Johnson fight at Reno was my last appearance as a promoter," said Tex Rickard recently in San Francisco. "It isn't that I love the fight game less, but I love that coal mine of ours at Cons Bay more. I'm coal mining now, you know, and that will be enough for me for some time. TOR ENGLISH DERB1 RELIC OF MOOSE BATTLE Interlocked Antlers That Mutely Tell of a Fight to the Death FINANCIAL QUES1 IONS 91-oTince Millies Claim lor Repayment of Taxes it the meeting of the city council «n Wednesday evening a letter was read from the Minister of Finance asking that the claim of the province against the city of Prince Rupert for UIi;aT4:03 be paid. This Included the taxes due the province upon the Unds in the city up to the date of incorporation when the city took over the conduct of affairs. It also Included the salary of Arthur Cuth- Sert as assessor and incidental ex- ijenses' connected with it. Tins was referred to the finance 'aommittee. Night Watchman's Pay Tho finance committee recommended the payment of $227.80, recommended by the Board of Trade *s the amount due to the night watchman, who had done duty before the city took over the conduct of affairs. Jtid. Pattullo with respect to the iccounf presented by the Board of Trade said that excellent work had keen done by providing a patrolman sefore incorporation. He had pleasure in moving that it he paid. Aid. Hilditch said be raised objection purely on the ground of precedent. This patrolman was very necessary lie admitted. He covered i special part of tin- city, however, mil In- did noi think thai the whole city should he made to pay for It. tld. Mobley objected to drawing Mil line as elosi us Aid. Hildltch suggested, lie thought the account rhould be paid. To «rrj I '.is io a logical conclusion the frontage lax »ould have to be introduced for •everything in the way if Improvements, etc., In the city Aid. Barrow wanted to know why lfte patrol man continued under the Board of Trade's instructlrn3 after the city was Incorporated. Aid. Pattullo thought It would lave been better for the Board of Trade to have dropped the employment of the man. It was overlooked, lowever. Aid. Hildltch said he did not ob- jsct to the money being paid. He iJd object to precedents being raised an other ways and this being allowed Hi pass. U was decided to pay the account. An extraordinary reminder of £. fatal animal battle is shown by a rare and unique trophy, a pair of interlocked moose antlers, the result of a deadly encounter between two giant bull moose in the wilds of the Cassiar mountains, British Columbia, a year or so ago. Tois specimen Is soon to be exhibited in die great collection of heads and horns now being brought together at the New York zoological park, which comprises some of the largest game heads of British Columbia, northern Alaska and elsewhere. During their duel the powerful and enraged moose used their broadly palmated antlers as weapons of offence and defence in a series of tremendous charges and assaults which they made upon each other. In the course of the fierce encounter the antlers became so firmly entangled and locked tint neither of the combatants could ureak away. A native hunter heard the I ,ud clashing of the horns a half a mile or so in the forest and star'ed for the scene of the confilcf. At a distance, spellbound, he witnessed the marvellous battle of tne two plants battering and crashing into one another with the energy of two locomotives In a head-on collision. On nearing the two antagonists he found that one of the animals had broken its neck during the struggle, and lay dead on the ground, while the other partly exhausted, was making Herculean efforts to release his horns. The hunter then killed the living moose, and tried by varloui, mechanical means, using a woodm wedge, etc., to sepaiate the antlers, which, however, was found to be i.n impossible task. He reported the duel between the moose to a neai-bj 'reding post, and the two heads v/ere secured and fortunately preserved. The animals were of gigantic size, probahly ten or twelve years old, tie larger pair of horns having a srread of sixty-nine and one-half inches, and the other sixty-two. This is said to be the only instance where a pair of giant moose antlers interlocked in this wonderful manner have been found and brought into civilization. o BOAT FOR STIKINE Fo/ the first time in racing history a British Columbia owner will be represented in the English Derby, Mr. Irving H. Wheatcroft, of St. James Island, near Victoria, having entered *wo yearlings for the 1912 Blue Ribbon of the turf. His entries are being bred on the St. James Stock Farm at Lexington, Kentucky, and the strains from which they are sprung are amongst the highest In British racehorse blood. The entries are: King Broomstick, a chestnut colt, by Broomstick, out of Imported Esteem by Chtldwlck by St. Simon; Queen Sain, a brown filly, by Sain out of Ora Bailey by Hanover. CRICKET TOURNAMENT Ten teams have entered for the fifth annual Pacific coast cricket tournament, which will take place in Victoria, commencing Monday, August 22, and continuing through the week till the 27th, on which day the championship final will be played. The ten teams entered are: Vancouver (holders of the cup), Victoria, Burrard, Seattle, Nanaimo, Albion, Saanich and Strawberry Vale (combined), Kootenay, Portland and the Work Point Garrison. ■ll»a\ TO TEACH CRICKET The Winnipeg Cricket Association are going to ask the educational authorities of the city to allow cricket to be taught in the public schools. The boys might be taught worse things and they are now probably ticcght, some not a hit more useful o. of greater educational value. If anything has to be dropped in order to make room for cricket, of course it will not be one of the esentials like the three R's. and If one or two of the ologles are knocked off the curriculum, no harm will be done. If the reyaest of the association Is granted, it is not likely that cricket will be made compulsory. It will be one of the optional subjects. BIG GAME HUNTERS There has just been launched at Seattle a tunnelboat for William J. McNeill, of Wrangell, for sen ice on the Stikine river, northern British Columbia. The boat has been named the "Telegraph," and it will ply between Wrangell, In Alaska, end Telegraph, B.C., on the Stikine river. The craft is one of the few tunnelboats ever to be built on this coast, and has been specially designed io navigate in shallow stream.. By an ingenious boxlike contrivance en- igh water Is provided to allow f propu- son where the ordinary propeller would be unable to work. !t will be operated on the Stikine river, between Wrangell and Telegraph, and will carry pasengers, mails and general freight. Her design will specially fit her for navigating the shallow reaches of the Stikine rher. Col. Parry, D.S.O., commander of the Denbighshire Yoemanry, North Wales, is at present on the coast, preparatory to visiting the Cassfar district to hunt hlg game. The ascent of the Stickine river to Telegraph creek will be made from Wrangel, Alaska. The colonel expects to be six weeks in the north, and is most anxious to secure a number of good trophies, including a moose head. Col. Parry has hunted In Africa, Norway and New Zealand, am: was decorated during the South A rican war. Among other hunters seeking sport are Mr. J. Bosenburg, a Norwegian, who is going to the Cassiar district this fall, and Mr. Eustis Red- cliffe, a well known English sportsman, who is now hunting grizzly in the Kenai peninsula of Alaska. RUBBER SUBSTITUTE George Metcalf, of Ashburtoi N. Z., claims to have Invented a substitute for rubber for cycle and motor tires, more durable and cheape, than rubber. He will go to London to lay the process before capitalists. TRIP TO ENGLAND A great sui prise was sprung on the Montreal lacrosse players when they turned out for their final practice before their match aaginst Toronto on Saturday. President Findlay told the playevs after the practice that If they again captured the N. L. U. title this year, it would mean a trip to the old ,o n try for them. This announcement was a great surpise to all the boys, and all stated that they would play harder than ever to capture the prize offered by Mr. Findlay. Mr. Findlay stated that he had the plan of the trip m his mind lor some time, and had several talks posed with Manager Davidson. If the Montreal twelve won tha championship it Is proposed to stait on the trip about the end of Mai ■ Games will be arranged to covei tin. expenses,' and the team will return early in May, so as to be in good condition for their league matches.

He formerly lived on the coast and the following from the Toronto World, In an account of the match which ueclded the national championship:— "The shower which fell just as the singles match was about to begin, by softening the court, helped Foulkes' cut ground strokes to come oft frequently, and puzzled Balrd, who is accustomed to clay courts and a fast-rising ball. However, after the former had 2-0, Balrd assumed the aggressive and took six straight games, 18 aces to 8. The second set was characterized by the resolute defence Foulkes offered, his great getting abilities and accuracy of return, and, towards the end, a lot of clever net work with cross-court and line volleys. In this set, Foulkes 6-2, the winner scored only 10 aces to Balrd's 15. but put only one ball each in the net and out of court. The third set was the most beautiful, as well as the turning-point of the match. Foulkes assumed the aggressive, showing great generalship, getting to the net frequently, and, though not smashing much, vcl- leylng ^splendidly, his speed, direction and timing being admirable. He had Balrd in difficulties frequently, made the latter play his game, and beat him at ".. He scored 18 aces to Balrd's 10, with mistakes about even, but scored when needed, winning at 6-2. It was now or never for Baird, and he opened strongly with a lead of 3-1. His overhead volleying now was the best he showed, but Foulkes proved a wenderful getter, refusing to be beaten, and was returning most of them safely, making it 3 all and 4 all. Daird continued persistent smashing and took the next two and the set at 6-4, Foulkes, when at 4-5 and 30-40, serving a double fault. Aces were: Baird 16, Foulkes 7; two sets all. "It was during the critical set that the prettiest net play was seen. Tbe pace slowed down in an effort after accuracy and the struggle for the net was keen. Foulkes' generalship was more apparent than ever, and his patience, waiting stroke after stroke for the exact moment to make a kill was admirable, whereas Baird often netted the ball in trying to kill off a difficult stroke. The latter was plainly nervous, whereas the champion's confidence was superb. One all and two all were called, and after Baird had 15 Foulkes scored 30 on two lovely cross-courts, then Balrd double faulted and Foulkes passed him again, 3-2. From this on the latter's ground-driving and his volleys ran him out the winner, 6-2, the aces being even, but Balrd's mistakes trebled the others. Keen as was the disappointment, the applause for the winner was general, and all appreciated the champion's remarks at the prize-giving, that Baird was the best player and sportsman he had ever met." o THE ABSORPTION OF LIGHT 40 per cent of the light strikjng them is thrown back. Dark green and rod hangings eexreise precisely the same Influence; they annihilate quite 85 per cent., only 15 per cent radiating from them. SALT IN BUTTER For slightly salted butter salt Is added by the process of brining where the butter is made in small quantities. Brine used In butter- making Is usually made by dissolving one pound of salt In about one gallon of clean water. A sufficient quantity of brine is made and used to thoroughly float the butter grains In the churn, so that the latter may be rotated several times without danger of the grains going together to form a solid mass. Brine, when freshly made, will be found to be several degrees below the temperature of the water from which It was made. This Is due to the salt absorbing heat from the water In dissolving. The low temperature of the brine is a great advantage In reducing the temperature of the butter In hot weather. John P. Babcock, formerly deputy commissioner of fisheries, who has resigned his post with the govern ment, has finally severed his connection with the province.

NOTICE The public of British Columbia and visitors are cordially Invited to meet the Right Honorable Sir Wilfrid Laurier, G.C.M.G., P.C., Premier of Canada, at a public reception to be tendered by the Premier and Members of tbe Executive Council of the Government of British Columbia, In the Parliament Buildings, Victoria, on Wednesday, the 17th instant, at 9 p.m. HENRY ESSON YOUNG, A15 Provincial Secrtary. A late Issue of Die Bauwelt says the color of paper hangings and tapestry is far from being a factor of minor Importance In the degree of light that prevails in a room, and Is closely related to the economic use of the artificial Illumination alsi. In accordance with their colir, such fabrics throw back into the 130111 a part of the light that Is falling upon them while they annihilate another part, or absorb it, as the technical phrase is. As the power of absorption of light rises In such a fnbric so naturally In less degree Is the rocm brightened and less advantageous is the use of artificial Illumination, a part of the money spent for the latter being wasted for l.'ibt annihilated by the hangings. The latest investigation reveals that the absorption of light depends, in the first instance, on the co'or of the hangings, and therefore on the same color when the walls are painted with It, too. aNturally the most favorable effect of color in thhi regard Is afforded by the white hangings and paints, but even these absorb 50 per cent of the light falling upon them, while the other 50 per cent radiates back Into the room Following these in the effect of light come the yellow hangings which radiate 45 par cent and annihilate 56 per cent.

The government bounties on pig iron and steel ingots expire on December 31 this year, and those on wire rode, which were given in lieu of tariff, on June 30, 1921. It is thought that when the different bounties are terminated they will be replaced by a protective tariff, although the cessation of the bonuses Indicates that the steel industry in Canada Is thought to have establish- er itself upon a firm and lasting foundation. To take care of future business, the corporation has been carrying out extensive plant alterations and Improvements, which will also materially reduce productive costs and increase the total capacity 50 per cent. The first new work to reach completion Is the set of coke ovens which embody all the Improvements of the last ten years. There are 120 of these, requiring the service of 5 6 men, and capable of turning out 720 tons of coke every twenty-four hours. The 500 old ovens produce about 1,250 tons of coke a day. Following these the open hearth furnaces will be finished and will be among the largest In the world, with a capacity of 500 tons each. A new power plant is under way, as well as a finishing plant, which will consist of a continuous roughing mill and Belgain train. These improvements were provided for in the consolidated mortgage bonds issued last year, about $2,- 285,000 of the $5,000,000 total being set aside for the purpose. During the past four seasons, net earnings have averaged about $2,- 327,715 a year, but after the different betterments have been completed the income account ought to show a gain corresponding with the greater capacity. countering a strong uncharted tide- rip in 11 degrees 15 minutes north latitude, 130 degrees 47 minutes west longitude. o LOCATION OF THE FIRE ALARM BOXES No. 1.—Fifth street and Third avenue.

Jy8 SNOW WHITE WATER In a report made to the United States hydrographlc office at Port Townsend an Inexplicable phenomenon, declared to be without precedent, Is described. The statement Is filed by Capt. II. Samuelson, of the American barkentlnc Aurora, on arrival from Callao, Peru. On June 27, In latitude 11 degrees south and longtitude 80 west, according to the report, the vessel's course brought her Into an area of snow- white water. The expanse was so large as to require nearly an entire day's sailing to traverse. Its merging with the natural ocean was sharp and definitely defined In color, creating a marvellous scene of marine beauty. Investigation with every means available failed to show the phenomenon to be due to submarine volcanic eruption or other upheaval. A bucket filled with the milk-white liquid when left an hour on the bar- kentlne's deck resumed a normal sea water color.

Friday, August 19, 1910 THE RECEPTION Tomorrow the city of Prince Rupert will have as its guest Sir Wilfrid Laurler, the Prime Minister of Canada. There is no question as to the heartiness of that reception. When Sir Wilfrid haB seen Prince Rupert he will have completed his westward tour and the homeward trip will commence. There can be no question that the visit to this city was one of the main objects of his tour. His railway policy which brought Into existence the G. T. P. was responsible for the springing up of a city here. It was but natural that he should desire to see for himself the point selected by the company and approved by his government as the place for a terminal port. When he sees the harbor and gets some idea of the potentialities of the territory tributary to this port there can be no doubt that the Prime Minister will be more than satisfied with the choice. In Prince Rupert, the farthest west, Sir Wilfrid will find the most western type of the Canadian people. Whatever may be said of the Prime Minister in times of political warfare, there is no denying the fact that he is of Canada and for Canada always. He will find that the men of the extreme west are big enough to recognize merit whether it is in their own particular political party or on the other side. He has been shown that farther south in British Columbia in the capital and in Vancouver. He will find that spirit high in Prince Rupert. The reception to the city is from the citizens of Prince Rupert, and not once in the arrangements has there been the first evidence of the introduction of party feeling into it. It is becoming that this should be so. There are plenty of opportunities for the display of party feeling. On the visit of the Prime Minister It has been wisely decided to forget all differences and make the occasion one to be remembered. The prayer of every resident of the city will be that Sir Wilfrid may long be spared to serve his country and that this may not be his last visit to the port. May he live to see the city when its harbor Is filled with deep sea shipping and when it ranks as one of the greatest seaports and Industrial centres in the north. o CLEAN UP THE CITV the Mov scons Gen. Baden-Powell Explains Wlinl i Aimed at in Organization The suggestion has been made that in view of the fact that there will, during the remainder of this week and the beginning of next, be a lot of strangers in the city, it would be advisable that there should be a general cleaning-up. There has been such a'move made in various parts of the townsite by civic and private corporations. There is still a lot to do in a private way. It is not an easy matter to keep a new city looking in the best of shape, but it is possible to do something along the line of making it, appear to the best advantage, and this should be done at the present time. Where the general cleaning up has taken place the appearance has been enhanced very materially. A little extension of the campaign would further improve the general aspect considerably. o DAUGHTERS OF THE EMPIRE) The organization In this city of a chapter of the Daughters of the Empire is a move on the part of the ladies of the city that Is to becom- mended. The objects of the organization are phllantrophlr and benefi- cient. Further, it aims at breaking down the barriers which may sometimes be found between the scattered parts of the Empire and uniting in one organization the ladles of the different, parts of that great nation. The scope of the work In which the organization can engage is wide enough to adapt it to all parts and with the patriotic principle always kept to the front the effect upon tha rising generations should he marked. o The governments of Italy and Venezuela have salt monopolies and prohibit the Importation or sale of the commodity to private parties. Pender Hall, Vancouver, was filled to overflowing when Major-Geueral Sir R. S. Baden-Powell was the guest at luncheon of the Canadian Club a few days ago. The general, who arrived with Commissioner J. A. May- nes, was met by the officers of the Canadian Club and a guard of honor formed by the scout masters of Vancouver, and on entering the hall was greeted with rounds of cheering and applause. "The boy scouts—those urchins going around with poles, shorts and cowboy hats—look like boys playing a game," said the general, after acknowledging the exceeding warmth of his reception. "So they are from their point of view at first, but there is a great deal underlying that game. We don't try to make soldiers or sailors of them. Our main object is the making of good citizens. That, you wil admit, is a larger object than making soldiers, because It makes them patriots In the first place and soldiering and sailoring will come after that In their place. • "We try to make them good citizens by methods which appeal to the boys themselves, and all the time we are building up character. "In the old country, he continued "they sought to lift the children of the slums from their surroundings, to bring out their Individual value, to save them becoming members of the great army of unemployed and unemployable which was now a canker at the heart of the Empire. They encouraged hoys in the knowledge of handicrafts, to lift them on the road when they would become useful members of society, with the ability to use their wits and their hands. In this country the need in that direction was not as great, but It was acknowledged by their neighbors to the south that what was needed in the younger generation on this side was discipline, and the boy scout movement worked for that outside of the school walls. They sought to mould men—patriotic and chivalrous men." THE ISLAND PARE Hon.

Price Ellison, minister of lands for British Columbia and party have returned from a six weeks' trip tftrough the interior of Vancouver Island, during which the party climbed Crown Mountain, the first time this feat has been accomplished. Referring to the trip, the minister of lands said:— "It Is the grandest scenery I have ever seen. The Kicking Horse Canyon through the Rocky Mountains is not to be compared with the lakes, rivers, glaciers and mountains and the awe-inspiring scenes witnessed by us in our trip through the island interior, where a tract containing 240 square miles has been reserved by the government as a provincial park." The party entered the interior of the Island by way of Campbell River, from which point the members proceeded by trail to Mclvor's Lake, some two miles above the great falls where a company with a capital of $2,000,000 will install a plant and distribute power to all towns on the island as far south as Victoria. It is also reported that the E. & N. will take power from this company and electrify the island lines. From Mclvor's Lake, Minister Ellison and party proceeded to Buttle Lake, where quite a stay was made waiting for the party of six under Captain Roberts that was to go in by way of Alberni and unite with the Ellison party at this point. The Ellison party was tired of waiting and had their packs ready for a start when the Roberts party was found. It was very fortunate for the party of Captain Roberts that the one dog belonging to the party barked as he always did whenever the party made a start on a day's journey, for the Roberts party heard the dog and speedily joined the main camp, almost famished, not having a scrap of food'left/ ' . ' Leaving his surveyors and their men at Buttle Lake, where they are now engaged In surveying t,he park, Mr. Ellison, his daughter, and party climbed Crown Mountain which from recent surveys has been found to be located within the limits of the proposed park, and not within the railway belt, as heretofore supposed. Mr. Ellison's report to the government will favor the Immediate construction of a roadway in to the park by way of Campbell River, and later on, if found practicable, by way of Alberni. The park will, says Mr. Ellison, be an asset to the province as an attraction to tourists.

Teachers' Salaries Victoria.—That the salaries paid the local teaching staff of the public schools is, in comparison with the salaries 'paid in other cities of the Dominion, inadequate, and that some of the best local teachers have had overtures made to them by outside boards,' was the basis of the belief held by Trustee A. B. McNeil that salaries here will have to be raised iii thfe near future if Victoria is to secure' the best material in the teaching line. Tnis question of salary arose at the regular meeting of the school board, when two appointments were made to the teaching staff. Some objection was made to the salary which is was suggested should be paid to one of the appointees. Trustee McNeil pointed to the difficulty in securing first-class teachers. At present the teachers putting in applications for positions on the local staff do not appear to be of as high quality as formerly, and this he as- scribed to the fact that other cities have raised the salaries paid and are attracting the best of the teachers looking' for positions, leaving only the less qualified for the positions offering here. This view was held by several other members of the board, and from the opinions expressed It looks very much as If the question of salary increases will be an Important one when the board considers the matter at the end of the year. o ■ A charge of being a frequenter of a house of Ill-fame has been before the police magistrate for several days this week.

Dated August 1,<1910. A19 Although the British public maintain an admiralty and a navy reputed to be the finest and strongest n. the world, and spend some forty millions a year on their fleet, no organization in this country yet exists to settle how tbat navy Is to be used in time of war, writes H. W. Wilson, In the London Dally Mall. It,exists for no other purpose than defending British Interests by destroying the armed forces of the enemy. Yet Just as there is a right and a wrong way of using a cricket bat or a golf club, so there Is a right and a wrong way of using a navy In war. And If the navy Is used In the wrong way, instead of destroying It may be destroyed, -ji ''. i. i In other navies special departments exist, known as admir&l. staffs, general staffs or naval war staffs, for tbe special purpose of determining how these various fleets shall be employed In war. These departments are freed from the routine work of administration in time of peace, and are given the time and liberty to frame a plan of campaign after a profound study of war and the possible enemy's forces. These are usually modelled upon the German general staff, which was the creation of Scharnhorst and Clausewltz, the heroes to whom Germany owes her great military greatness, and which was developed to the highest pitch of efficiency by Moltke. No Special Staff The British navy has no such department, though even the navies of both Sweden and Russia now possess general staffs to frame plans for war. The British admiralty is not the organization in question; rather Is it, as Lieut. Dewar has said, a board of directors whose entire time is taken up with details of daily administration. We may look in vain through the lists of our admiralty departments for an admiral staff or a naval war staff, for an operations bureau or for an historical section. The germ of the thing we require Is there. It Is true, in the department of naval Intelligence. But It Is only the germ. The fully developed organism is wanting. , For want of this organization, the British navy has been compared to a body which has no brain. The comparison Is a little unjust to a noble service. We should say, rather, that the British navy Is a body with an undeveloped brain. The politicians rather than the navy officers are to blame. They still put their faith in the glorious principle of "muddling through," which is now peculiar and sacred to the Anglo-Saxon peoples, because they have not yet grasped the overwhelming importance of or- ganiaztion for war before battle is joined, or realized that no human precaution should be neglected, now that the loss of a single war or even a single battle may level in the dust empires the growth of centuries. Evading Enemy Lest it be said that we are talking Mildly in declaring that no one knows how the British navy Is to be used, some proofs of that statement may given. The average man has a hazy idea that on the outbreak of war the British fleet will up anchor and attack the enemy. What should he say if he knew that quite recently the plan of withdrawing all the Britisli large ships from the North sea lo Lamlash, on the west coast of Scotland, was seriously discussed? It was an original scheme. To avoid being hurt by hostile destroyers and submarines, our battleships were to get out of harm's way instead of trying to hurt the enemy. This was not Nelson's Idea of war, not Napoleon's, nor Grant's, nor Moltke's. Nelson did not run away and hide in some remote part in the most critical moments of the Trafalgar campaign. If he had so done he would certainly have been shot; but, of course, such a move on his part would have been absolutely unthinkable. J That it should have been discussed instead of being laughed indignantly out of court, Is proof that there Is something wrong with our ideas of naval war and our teaching of naval strategy. But this Incident does not stand alone. The first lord of the admiralty only this year declared that the uses of the navy fell under the following heads:—Destruction of the enemy's commerce; protection of British commerce, convoying an invading army (only he added we had none to convoy); and the protection of our shores against a convoyed force. In all this, not one single mention of the armed naval forces of the enemy. "There would," he said, "be no advantage in destroying ships of war unless thereby we obtained control of the commerce." Teachings of Past Yet the principle which shines forth like a sun from the operations of all past wars is that If you destroy the armed forces of the enemy all other things shall be 'added to you. If you leave the ap-med forces of a strong enemy Intact .you will fall In every point. 'j Thus Mr. McKenna holds a doctrine of naval war entirely at variance with the teachings of the past, entirely at variance with the teachings of the ablest British and foreign thinkers of today. It would be unjust to blame him excessively for such errors. He is an administrator, so burdened with the conduct of daily affairs as to have no time for a profound study of strategy. But what an amazing state of affairs that there is no organization at the admiralty to supply him with tbe right principles, and how surprising that he dees not at once create such a body! Hbw disquieting the discovery that the nominal chief of the navy does not clearly understand for what purpose a navy exists! Lord Chas. Beresford's Charges A third piece of evidence that there is no clear idea among naval officers as to the use of the fleet in war time. Is given by the report of the cabinet committee which last year examined the charges brought stated that its members had been im- by Lord Charles Beresford. It pressed "with the differences of opinion among officers of high rank concerning strategy and tactics." Strategy is the science of employing fleets or armies before actual fighting begins; tactics is the art of conducting the fighting. Where there should have been unity of sentiment on these vital points there was anarchy. Is a fleet in which professional anarchy obtains certain to win in battle, or organized for war? Fourthly, there is the fact that Lord Charles Beresbord aserted In 1909 that the fleet In home waters was not organized for war when he assumed command of the channel fleet, and that he was unable to obtain any strategical scheme or plan for the disposal in war of the forces under his command." It Is true that the cabinet committee found against him on these heads, but with some uncertainty. For It admitted that what plans existed were not Ideal. Let us divorce from our minds the idea that the conduct of affairs at the admiralty.or the exercise of fleets teaches the whole art of naval war. The sea lords of the admiralty are so overwhelmed with, work of all kinds that they have not time to study war, and we have seen that they have no organization to give them the help which they need. The commanders of fleets have the help of able staff officers afloat, but they are without the guidance and assistance which an admiral staff would give by working out and testing plans of campaign and inspiring a sound theory of war. Peace manoeuvres, however realistic, must differ enormously from the "real thing," and to win in the "real thing" our of- ncers need the best theorists at their tacks, strategists who have assimilated history. Navnl War Staff The cabinet committee last August urged that a naval war staff should be formed. Nothing has been done, and for that the cabinet must be blamed. But it is unfortunate to find so able and distinguished a writer on naval war as Admiral Sir Cyprian Bridge, writing in the Naval Annaitl what hasty readers will take to be naval war staff. His words do not an unsparing condemnation of a really mean what they seem to Import. He Is inveighing against a mere tame copy of a German Institution, and there we may agree with him. And even he admits that the admiralty Is not at present organized for war. Only his remedy is to revolutionize the admiralty and go back to the arrangements of a century ago. There will be many who will hold that evolution Is better than revolution. There Is no reason why a war staff should not be fitted into the present admiralty, or why under the first sea lord, and responsible to him, should not be placed the various sub-departments required, each other a director—Intelligence of foreign navies, operations, history, strategy, material In its relations to war, war college, etc. The chief of the staff would be directed to draw up a plan of campaign which would be sub- LIGHTING STREETS City Council is Now Engaged in Deciding Upon Best System to Adopt. Engineer Reports Upon tbe Cost— Private Company Makes a Proposition In compliance with the request of the city council, the city engineer on Tuesday night submitted a report on the expense of operating the temporary lighting plant In the city. The report was as follows:— "I have obtained from the proprietor of the sash and door factory a proposal to rent the boiler and engine now In use at the factory to the corporation for the purpose of generating power for electric lighting. I estimate the cost of operating the plant as follows:— Rental of boiler and engine for one year $3,650 Fuel, 912% tons 7,300 Water, oil, waste, etc 200 Total $11,150 Two engineers at $225 per month $2,700 One laborer 1,000 One superintendent 1,800 Maintenance of pole lines, etc Depreciation $5,500 250 331 " $581 Total cost $17,231 Income Assuming that 80 h.p. is available the city could supply 600 carbon lamps to consumers, or 100 Tungsten lamps. Time may be taken as seven hours per day for the winter months, and three hours per day for summer months. With a charge of 15 cents per k.w. hour, the gross receipts for winter months would be $11,497.50, and for summer months $4,927.29 or a total of $16,424.79, leaving a balance of $806.21 to be charged against the street lighting account. With reference to the plant to be located at the foot of McBride street, and estimated to cost $30,000: The annual expense of operation, including depreciation, would be $18,272, the installation of this plant would require six months time so that little revenue would be obtained the first year. Assuming that 2,000 lamps are In after the first year, the revenue would be about $32,000. WM. MAHLON DAVIS, City Engineer. Aid. Smith said he had asked a local men to be present and would ask tbat he be heard. Mr. Durant, he said, would offer, if given a 10-year contract to give the city power delivered at the city limits, the city being given an option to purchase at the end of ten years at fifty per cent of the cost. Mr. Durant being asked to address the council, said his company could supply power within about four months. He had Vancouver capital interested and a gas producer plant would be put in, starting with a 800 kilowatt plant, which might he Increased. They could furnish power at twelve cents per kilowatt hour. Mr. Waller, representing the Vancouver interests, would he here next week and he asked that the matter be allowed to stand over until Mr. Waller arrived. A rate of 12c per k.w. hour would represent a cost of 3c per 16 c.p. lamp for five hours or \ery nearly as cheap as the eastern cities. They could also put in a low figure for power to be used In the day time. The city engineer was called In and a full discussion followed. Aid. Mobley moved that the engineer be instructed to compile data as to the cost of tbe necessary machinery for distributing the electric energy. The question of getting fiower could be decided later but the machinery must be had at any rate. Aid. Lynch said that the engineer should also take up the question of installing another fifty horsepower boiler along side tbe one in the sash and door factory now. That would enable the city to use the full 125 horsepower engine in the factory. Aid. Smith thought the proposition submitted by Mr. Durant was worthy of consideration. He would second Aid. Mobley's motion. Aid. Naden pointed out that It would be necessary to put a bylaw to the people to pay for the plant. Aid. Mobley suggested that there would be $9,000 left In the general fund this year to pay for the electric light plant. Aid. Pattullo moved that the city take steps at once to procure the old pole line If It ts possible to get It reasonably without going to arbitration. Aid. Smith said the company had already been asked to submit a proposition to the city, but they have not yet done so. The engineer was asked what the cost would be per 16 candle power lamp If the street lamps were put In at the same price as the house lamps. After he had figured It out the engineer reported that it would cost a little less than 8 cents per k.w. hour, or about 4c per 16 candle- power lamp per seven hours. This would mean that the street lighting would cost $9,395 per annum and the revenue from the private consumers would be $7,836 per year. o—i THE WARD SYSTEM Aid. Pattullo Introduces Bylaw to Divide the City for Electoral Purposes. 'il Measure is Now Before the Council —Will be Further Considered In Committee mltted to the first sea lord for his approval. And to prevent the staff from stlrlle theorizing, to give purpose and reality to its studies, It should be clearly understood that In war the chief of the staff will embark with the main fleet and in person see his plan carried out. We must never forget that a council Imposed on the Spanish Admiral Cervera in 1898 a plan which was simply suicidal-— a plan of which this council would never have dreamed bad It been called upon to carry It out; and that precisely the same occurred with Admiral Rojesvcnsky in 1904. Aid. Pattullo at Wednesday evening's meeting of the city council introduced a bylaw that foreshadows the election. It is the bylaw to divide the city Into wards which Is a necessary move before the next council is elected according to the municipal clauses act. Of necessity the division now made must be only temporary as the centres of population will change from time to time necessitating amendments to meet the altered conditions. Aid. Pattullo explained In connection with his bylaw last night that the act required that the wards should be such that the assessed value of the property In each was approximately similar. If this were not the case the council might be called upon to amend the bylaw. He had found It difficult to carry this out on account of the heavy assessment on some of the waterfront blocks. He had considered the matter carefully and thought tbfe system of two wards the best. Fulton street would, roughly speaking, be the dividing line. The line would leave the waterfront In the G.T.P. wharf section, following Sixth street to Second avenue. It would continue along Second avenue to Fulton, follow that street to Ninth avenue and pass along the alley between blocks 42 and 43 in section five. Ward one would be the section westerly of this line, while ward two would be that easterly of the line. It was found difficult to make a division that would give equal assessment and yet be divided by a line that could readily be designated without considerable study. The assessment in this division he proposed would be over $6,000,000 in ward one and over $8,000,000 in ward two. He proposed that there should be three aldermen elected from ward one and five from ward two, This would be a fair division of the representation. Aid, Mclntyre asked why McBride street was not made the dividing line. Aid. Pattullo explained Hint if thai were done there would be a wide disparity between the assessments of the wards owing to the waterfronl of the G.T.P. being placed so high. Tbe bylaw was considered In committee at some length, after which the committee rose and reported progress. o John L. Sullivan, who held the championship of the world for many years, and was never defeated under London prize ring rules, has decided to retire from public life for good and settle down on a small farm near Boston, there to enjoy life with his family.

It is just six years since Mr. Hall took hold of Sullivan, and on July 1, 1911, they will spcaratc as business ners. APPRECIATE WORK Hans Helgeson Retires From Fishing Department on the Skeena. Testimonial to His Ability Paid by Those Engaged in the Industry On That River part- Hans Helgeson, who has been fishery overseer on the Skeena for about ten years, has retired from that position. He visited Prince Rupert this week and will leave shortly for Victoria. At the borne of J. T. C. Williams at Port Essington a few days ago, Mr. Helgeson' was presented with a gold headed cane and a purse of over $600 by those Interested In the fishing Industry In recognition of the valuable assistance he had been to the industry. An address was presented Mr. Helgeson in which the cannery- men set forth their appreciation of his work. The address was as follows:— "We, the undersigned owners and operators of canneries on the Skeena River, wish on the eve of your retirement from the public position you have held so long and honorably to express our deep sense of appreciation of your unvarying civility and willingness at all times to oblige, your high sense of justice and in> tegrlty. hu., "During your ten years of service as fishery overseer for the Dominion Government, you have acted with the strictest Impartiality, giving all of us a "square deal" and during times of critical Importance to the salmon fisheries of the Skeena river your sound judgment has always been much appreciated by us. "We also wish to take this opportunity to express to you our sincere thanks for the active and important part you played in obtaining the permanent prohibition of the Babine barricades. We realize that through your efforts combined with those of the department this terrible engine of destruction to the salmon was ob- liberated for all time; consequently with the strict enforcement of the weekly close season an abundance of ' salmon is allowed to reach the spawning grounds, enabling the1 Indians in tbe interior to obtain a more abundant supply for their needs. "And we are of the unanimous opinion that the present magnificent run of salmon, a run, we believe, unprecedented In the history of the Skeena River canneries, Is due in a great measure to the removal of the celebrated Babine barricades, and we trust that the department will continue to remove other obstructions until they make the Skeena River the grandest salmon stream on the coast. "We close our testimonial with the sincere and earnest hope that the evening of your long and useful life will be spent In the peace and happiness which follows an honorable career." The testimonial was signed by: B. C. Packers Association, per M. M. English, representing four canneries; Wallace Bros. Packing Co., Ltd., Peter Wallace, manager; British America Cannery, per G. B. Baillle; the Cassiar Packing Co., D. \l. .Moore, manager; Oceanic Cannery A, W. Carter, manager; Inverness Cannery, R. G. Johnson, manager; A. B, C.

On the other hand there has been a decided betterment In Canadian exports to Germany since the removal of the surtax during the three months. Since the new agreement came Into force they totalled $803,734, as compared with $411,008 In the previous three months, an Increase of $392,228. o After measuring hundreds of prisoners, French scientists have found thai the average criminal has arms below the normal in length. 4 # PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL Friday, August 19, 1910 PREMIER'S POWER Some of the Characteristics of Sir Wil frid Laurier That Have Made Him Popular. The City's Visitor is a Model Party Leader, Understanding Political Game Perfectly The visit of the Rt. Hon. Sir Wilfrid Laurier, G.C.M.G., P.C., to Prince Rupert attracts attention to the personality of the Prime Minister of Canada. The following Is of special interest at this time: ' Sir Wilfrid Laurier has served his country in its parliaments for thirty- nine years. He entered the Legislature of Quebec on November 7, 1871, as member for Athabaska. In 1874 he was elected to the House of Commons from ihe same district. Three years later, October 8, 1877, entered the cabinet with the portfolio of inland revenue. The following day he presented himself for re-election and on October 27, when the polls closed It was found that he had been defeated by a majority of twenty-nine votes. On November 28 he was returned from Quebec East, and has represented that constituency till this day, writes Andrew McPhail. On September 17, 187S, the government was defeated by a majority of eighty-six. On October 9, Mr. Mackenzie resigned office, and on April 28, 1SS0, he retired from the leadership of the opposition. He was succeeded by Edward Blake, and he in turn retired June 2, 1SS7. Sir Wilfrid Laurler was unanimously chosen leader on June 7, and has occupied that place for twenty-three years. In 1896 the LiberalB were returned to parliament in the majority and their leader became prime minister, a post which he still holds. Sir Wilfrid Laurier was born on November 20, 1841, at St-Lin, in the county of Assomption. His father was a land surveyor. His grandfather was a farmer, yet interested in mathematics and the science of those days. His mother was Marcelle Mar- tlneau. Her only child was Wilfrid, and she died when he was four years old. On May 13, 1868, he married Zoe Lnfontaine, of Montreal. That a man Is born and is married—these are two of Ihe four events of real Importance In hi* life, The most notable servants of the crown in the overseas dominions are Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Mr. Louis Botha, and neither is of English birth. They are the most useful on that account. In the first speech which Sir Wilfrid ever delivered in parliament he declared that, under the B ii .sh constitution, we had freedom, privilege and power. It was the finest under which men ever lived, and especially fitted to unite citizens of different races, nationalities, and religions. These sentiments were uttered nearly forty years ago, and the speaker has never since departed from them. Unless one gains a close apprehension of this central thought, he can form no estimate of what Sir Wilfrid Laurler has done for Canada and for the world. Still less can one follow the course which he has consistently pursued. He is not an idealist. He Is a practical statesman who prefers to get a thing done in the best way it can be done rather than not get it done at all. He Is not fond of the impossible. What he can not effect by persuasion be never attempts to do by force. He is fully aware how complicated a business the world Is, how selfish some men are and how foolish all are. For both he has an Immense toleration. He is always amused but never annoyed; and with all his experience, his experience has not made bis hopeless en- sad. lie is n man or vision, of Imagination, and yet be bus never brought himself to really believe thai the men by whom he Is Burrounded are angels, no matter how faithfully hecmay defend them, or thai his opponents are always hopelessly In the wrong. Possibly the education which he received in his youth may help to account for his sagacious and sympathetic attitude lowards all opinions no matter how absurd they may seem. The motherless boy attended the elementary school of bis native parisli till ho was twelve years old. Then he spent n year at a Protestant school at Xow Glasgow, and lived with an Irish family. Much of bis leisure was spent in the bouse of John Murray, who was an elder In the church of Scotland and bad been educated for its ministry. In proof of this surmise his own words may be quoted: "The pure family life and the godly conduct of the Murrays Impressed me and convinced me that a Protestant can be an earnest, true Christian, as well as a Catholic." The next seven years were spent In L'Assomption College, one of those Institutions which are the last refuge of education on the American Continent. In 1861 he entered McGill University, and graduated from the faculty of law at the expiration of his course. In the valedictory address which he made to his fellow students he charged them that their mission was to cause justice to reign; to separate the true from the false; to maintain the rights of citizens; to preserve the general peace; to preserve for the family its inheritance,, the Individual his honor, for the public the just repression of offences; to hold within limits the audacity of the powerful; and to relieve the wretchedness of the weak, without violence to the one, or Indulgence to the other. He was brought up In a hard school. Before he was yet 30 he was in the thick of real political and religious strife. Politics Was not then a question of awarding a contract or filling an office. The issue was whether free born men should govern themselves, or whether they should be governed by the terms of the "Programme Catholique" which was the last political expression of ultra- montism, or by the "Protestant Defence Association," or by both. Those were the days, tooj when Canada was a congeries of widely separated provinces with different or hostile interests. The sound of the "Papineau gun" had scarcely died out; Lyon Mackenzie's efforts had not yet fully decided if the executive was to be subject to the control of parliament, or if it would surrender to the people the privileges which it had usurped and had insolently retained. It is little wonder, then, that Sir Wilfrid learned how to handle himself as he does in a debate over the production of some papers, we shall say, or at an imperial conference where the choicest wits of the empire are assembled. Sir Wilfrid Laurler came to the scrutiny of British institutions with a fresh eye; and he was quick to discover the high place which government by party holds. Before a party can govern it must get Into power; and if it would continue- to govern It must stay in power. Sir Wilfrid never forgets that, whilst he is prime minister, he is also leader of a party, and he is as sedulous in performing the duties of the one as of the other. Anyone who supposes that he does not understand the management of a campaign will find himself sadly mistaken; and opponents who resort to subtlery, adroitness, and skill in contriving are very likely to find themselves over-matched. Sir Wilfrid Laurier always tells the truth, or, rather, he never says a thing which is not true. At times he allows his opponents to remain in doubt, or even as victims of their own misconception. Yet one would not say that he was entirely simple- minded in political affairs. He can manage a campaign or a debate in parliament with equal ease, his favorite method being to encourage his opponents to raise a cloud of dust In which they cannot find their way. That plan worked to perfection in the debate upon the Naval Bill. And yet, on the other hand, he has i mind of extreme Innocence, directness, and—I had almost said—simplicity. He has the faculty of getting hold of a thing by the right end, of seeing into the heart of a matter, and handling his material in the most natural and, therefore, easiest way. He gives the impression which one receives upon beholding a practised craftsman engaged in tasks which to the inexperienced are Impossible or done only with much labor. It Is easy to know what he will do in any given case. All one has to do is to ask one's self, what Is the common sense of the thing. Then one knows what course the premier will take, whether It be a question of giving schools to Protestants or to Catholics, making a treaty, building a navy, sending armed forces oversea, or providing for the consolidation and defence of the empire. But be must not be hurried. No one understands belter the solving power of time upon political problems. No man In Canadian public life has received more attention at the hands of political culmlnators. He has been blamed by Protestants for be- Ing a good Catholic, and he has been j accused by Catholics of being a bad I Catholic. At one election it was affirmed thai he was a Protestant minister, apostate and a companion of the ex-communicated, The English have blamed him for! speaking French; and his own poo-i pie have blamed him for speaking' French with an English accent. All of which means that he Is a man first and a Catholic and Frenchman afterwards. Even the crime of treason has been laid to his charge; but all the notice his detractors received was a sad smile and a few chance reflections upon their foolishness rather than upon their wickedness. In forty years, however, no opponent has been so base as to utter a slander which touched his personal honor, the purity of his private life, or the righteousness of his character. He has opponents but no enemies, and that is the richest achievement of a man who has been in public life nearly all his days. In the tortuous course of the political way, no matter how sudden the emergency, he has never been known to utter an Ill- natured expression and rarely a harsh one. His knowledge is so exact, his mastery of public affairs so great, and the discipline of his party so firm that parliament Is disposed to rely more absolutely than It ought upon the direction of one Individual. In this Sir Wilfrid has the defect of his quality. To write the life of Sir Wilfrid Laurier is to write the history of Canada for half a century. This is not the present Intention, especially as the task has already been so admirably performed by Mr. Willison; but rather to give a view from near observation of the person of a great and faithful servant of the people of Canada and of the British corwn. But no expanse of writing can convey a complete idea of his humorous face, his expression which is more than quaint and not quite whimsical, his old-world way of standing and moving, his gentle courteous bearing, his affable, complaisant, winsome, cheery manner, which may all be summed up in the word, debonair. Lady Laurier is no less interesting a figure than her husband. She gives one the impression of being in her own home entertaining her neighbors. The friendly frankness of her speech, the accuracy of her comment, the shrewd wit, the justness of her opinions, especially upon the conduct proper to women is a refreshment, the more especially when it is heard in so high a quarter. Lady Laurier would be a model premier in a parliament of women, though 1 fear the deliberations would not be very prolonged. The French have a word, non- home, that is, a person who is in possession of a bonhommie, which is a mixture of good nature, honesty, humor, wisdom and simplicity. Such a person one may sometimes see sitting by his door in the evening of his life having done good in his time and quietly rejoicing in his labor. I should say that this term, which was one applied to him by Mr. Thomson, more accurately than any other defines Sir Wilfrid. LAND PURCHASE NOTICES Skeena Land District—District of Cassiar.

Jy8 BtBHSBl /1-vvarv I ' ■ Friday, August 19, 1910 THE PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL CONSERVING RICHES Waste in Various Directions is Common Canadian Enterprises. in Some of the Most Common Ways in Which Savings Might be Effected There are many ways in which Canada is wasting her natural resources, and the means by which this waste can be eliminated is one of the ■ most Important questions of the day. As regards the mineral resources, greater care should be taken to obtain the greatest possible value out of tbe mineral deposits, as these, once exhausted, can nerer be replaced. The mineral Industry Is rapidly growing in Importance, the output of the Canadian mines having increased from fourteen and a half million dollars In 1889 to ninety million dollars in 1909. The country's relatively high standing In tbe production of the several metals was shown last year in the fact that she produced eleven per cent of tbe world's production of silver, sixty- three per cent of the world'B nickel, and seventy per cent of the asbestos. The waste In the coal mining Industry stood out very prominently, It being estimated that up to the present date, for every ton of coal mined one was lost. The briquetting of the slack from the mines, the use of coke ovens that would save the va'- uable by-products, and the adoption of the long wall method of mining, which permits a saving of from nine to twenty-four per cent of the quantity mined, would do a great deal to eliminate these losses. The need of more economy in the mining of coal Is amply demonstrated in the rising price of anthracite. When the Cobalt mines began operations, the low-grade ore was thrown In vast heaps along with the rocK and waste. Now many of the mines are going to the expense of re- handling these 'dumps" In order to secure the silver contained In them. The tailings from the 240,000 tons mll'ed this year will carry nearly one and a half million ounces of silver. By the end of 1910 there will be upwards of 2,200,000 ounces In the dumps, worth, at present prices, upwards of one and a quarter million dollars. The continual Improvement in methods for utilizing low- grade ores has shown the folly of throwing away ore containing mineral content of any value. The supply of timber In our forest reserves has been found to have been greatly overestimated, owing to the assumption that the forests, containing high-grade timber, extended to the far north. Prince Edward's island has practically no timber, only one-fourth of Nova Scotia's area Is virgin forest, New Brunswick's timber lands have been devastated by disastrous fires, and the pine in the Ontario reserves, at the present rate of cutting, Is estimated to last not more than ten or twelve years. In Northern Ontario, Northwestern Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia forest fires have been responsible for extensive damages. The problem of how to cope with forest fires Is one that demands Immediate attention. Where railways traverse the country, the locomotive starts more fires than any other agency. In the Adirondack forest reserve, the only railway that had been free from fires had used oil fuel during the summer. Electrical operation through forest lands has been proposed, but this, In most cases, is too expensive. The number of forest fires started by railways would he greatly reduced If the right-of-way were cleared of inflammable debris. Fires do not start In the forests of Germany although railways run through them. In Canada It would be an Injustice to force the railways to burn oil-fuel on account of the high cost, bul It is not too much to demand that they clear the right-of- way and keep It clear; that, during the fire season, they patrol their tracks, following up the trains particularly where the heavy grades necessitate a maximum draught, and ' that they Inspect their grates and, stack screens at the end of each division. In dry weather an engine with a defective grate or screen will set scores of fires on every mile of line. The land of the country deserves most careful attention. Five hundred and thirty-three million dollars represented the value of our field crops last year, whl'e the agricultural exports amounted to fifty-one per cent of Canada's total exports for the year. The average wheat yield last year was twenty-one and a half bushels to the acre, comparing favorably with the fifteen and three-quarters bushels per acre in the United States, but, gratifying as it was, it was due principally to the fact that we are putting so much virgin soil In operation each year, and not to any improved methods of farming. The people should not be blinded to the absolute necessity of modern methods in farming, to better crot rotation and for methods of keeping down noxious weeds and exterminating Insect pests. The water powers of Canada have not been appraised at their true value. Roughly speaking, they have been estimated at seventeen million horsepower. Although only about one-half million horse-power of this has been developed, It nevertheless provided power equivalent to one and one-half times all the coal annually used in Ontario. Extensive storage basins are under way on the Ottawa river and the Alberta irrigation enterprises will be the most important feature in the agricultural development of tbat province. What scientific medicine has done to increase the length of life of the average Individual Is shown by statistics covering the last four centuries. In tbe sixteenth century the average life span was twenty-one years, by the eighteenth century It was Increased to thirty-three and one-half years, and today It stands at forty years. But there Is yet a tremendous work for preventive medicine to do. There are at the present time 250,000 people in Canada suffering from serious illness, of wrom 42,000 are consumptives. Probably over half this Illness Is preventable. Our annual mortality from tuberculosis is about 13,200, from other diseases, commonly known as preventable, 26,000, and from other diseases now being recognized as preventable, 36,000. Assuming that three-fourths of the mortality from tuberculosis and other preventable dis^s.ii- lan be stopped, it has been estimated that it would Increase our average length of life over fifteen years. Assuming, also, the value of each life lost to be? $1,700, and the average wage loss per Invalid to be $700 per annum, the economic gain would be $140,- 000,000. o IMMIGRATION TO CANADA STUDYING SALMON SOCIKTV OF LITIOIUTl 111 Professor of Leland Stanford University is Making Investigations Into Life History. He Will Prepart a Book on the Subject From Information Gathered on Coast Official of Department Speaks of the Number Entering From V. S. On a tour of the northern part of the prairie provinces which he is taking for the purpose of gathering information at first hand with regard to prevailing crop conditions and also with regard to the districts which will offer the best inducements to the American settler, W. J. White of Ottawa, Dominion inspector of American Immigration agencies, visited Edmonton. The Information gathered on his extensive Itinerary In which he has been engaged dur- Ing the past ten days and which It will require as much more time to complete, will be conveyed to the Immigration agents at the offices main tained by the Dominion government throughout the United States, and will be used by them In their campaign to swell the influx of American settlers Into the Canadian West. "We are putting forth a greater effort than ever before to Induce American settlers to come to Western Canada," he said. "In conferenc today with Mr. Oliver, the ministei of the Interior, I secured permission to place exhibits of farm products from Western Canada at many fairs and exhlbtions In American cities which it has not hitherto been our practice to visit. This is one step toward making our immigration campaign more effective." With regard to the number of immigrants coming to Canada this year from the United Stales, Mr. White stated that between 140,000 and 150,000 would be a conservative estimate. Speaking of the reports that are being circulated throughout the Western States to the effect that thousands of American i ettlers are returning to the States c'issatisfled with the Canadian West, he stated that their only effect was to spur on the officials of his department to greater efforts to bring the setlters in. "As a matter of fact," he said, "very few settlers are returning to the States. I don't know any reason why they should go back. They certainly cannot find anything better down home than we have In Western Canada." He estimated the number who have actually returned to the States at about 300, and was of the opinion that a large proportion of these had no Intention of staying when they came. o For Job Printing of all kinds see 'he Journal man. Professor C. H. Gilbert of Leland Stanford university, Palo Alto, Oil., has paid a visit to tbe coast siting of British Columbia. Last year he accompanied Dr. David Starr Jordan, president of tbe university, when an International fishery conference was held. He Is now In Seattle and the different points on the American side where salmon fisheries are carried on. Professor Gilbert stated that he was inquiring in a general way as to how many sockeyes had been caught on the Fraser, as well as other species. He was also gathering any Information possible about the fishing Industry, both in British Columbia waters as well as In Puget Sound and the Skagit and other rivers. He was investigating from a scientific standpoint as professor of zoology, as well as a member of the International fisheries commission, the age of the sockeye salmon. In regard to this subject his results will be published In book form in due time, and concerning what he had found In this enquiry he was not In a position to discuss. He Btated that at present there are three ways of approaching the subject of the age of the sockeye. One is that on the Fraser river, and on no other river in the worlU, the sockeye pack is large every fourth year. This was an extremely interesting phenomenon that gave rise to some interesting speculations. From this fact many Investigators place the age of the fish at four years. But there were facts that did not fit in with that theory. One was that the sockeye came in ogether in a huge run into the Straits of Juan de Fuca. Then by some natural law the school became split p. Some of 'the sockeye went to the Fraser, wo lie others went to the Skagit river in the state of Washington, and other rivers. This is where a strange phenomenon came into play—when the sockeye In a fourth year were plentiful In the Fraser river, their numbers were about the same in the Skagit from year to year. From old records of the Hudson's Bay company the professor pointed out that the sockeye were caught In large numbers every fourth year. How this variation In the size of the run ever originated can only be guessed at. Neverthe less It was a fact that such was tbe case. Another theory fixing the age of the fish was from markings. Some of tbe sockeye had been marked in the hatcheries In Washington by having a hole punched in their fins. Some of these fish had been caught In later years and their age was fixed at four years. The third way of determining the span of life of the sockeye was a method recently made public by Professor McMurrich of the University of Toronto. He believes that the ear bones of this species hold the clue to their age, just as the rings of a tree tell how many summers It has seen, or the ridges on the teeth of a horse. The speaker said that the humpback salmon were plentiful" every other season, thus differing from the sockeye. The work that had been done by the employees In the Washington State hatcheries in the matter of marking fish had been imperfectly carried out, for the same punches had been used at different points Instead of different kinds of marks. This led to confusion and defeated the ends of science. When the marked fish were caught different hatcheries claimed them as ther own fish. In regard to the decisions that might be arrived at by the International commission, he thought that only such considerations as controlled the manner and time of fishing for salmon were to be discussed. Opposition on the part of Washington canners and fishers would probably be met, but If the decisions that might be arrived at were enforced by the federal government of the Unitd States and not by the Washin- ton state government then they would likely be more strictly enforced. He thought that only about three quarters as many licenses for fishermen had been issued in Washington state as had been Issued last year.

According to advices received by Resident Dominion Engineer Keefer, It appears that the Fruhllng Is unable to handle the work to which she has been put. The bar which divides Old and New Alberni has been found to be composed of harder material than had been anticipated, and many snags are contained In the sand. The residents of Alberni are boiling that the Vancouver office of the department, of public works may see fit to send the King Edward to undertake the work, but Mr. Keefer i fates that he would not dare to send the big flat bottomed dredge so far as Alberni. "If she met the big swell that rolls In around Alberni,' said he, "and I have scarcely ever gone up there without meeting It, she would probably founder." Mr. Keefer stated that it was possible that the dredge Ajax, now ;n Victoria, might be fitted up for tin- work at Alberni and sent up there. As for the Fruhllng, .Mr. Keefer stated that on Its return from Alberni It would not be possible to put it at work at the mouth of the Fraser river again until the fishing season was drawing to a close. The Fruh- ling worked on the sandheads for a short time during the season last year and a vast amount of trouble was experienced with the nets. As soon as possible the big dredge would be put to work on the North Arm which it Is the intention of the department to deepen throughout to eight feet at low water, so as to make It navigable for all olasse of tugs during the coming low water season.

CRUISER RAINBOW The Canadian cruiser Rainbow, Commander Stewart, is to leave Portsmouth on Saturday, August 20, for Esquimau, to form the nucleus of the Canadian navy. The Rainbow will be the first of Canada's new naval craft to reach Canada waters. A rumor was current that the vessel might go first to Halifax to be stationed ther pending the repairs to the cruiser Niobe which will not be ready for service until October, a statement to that effect having been made by a prominent official of the marine and fisheries department at. Ottawa who recently visited this city. It is understood, however, that this programme will not be adhered to and the Rainbow will proceed direct to Esquimau. The Rainbow was placed in commission at Portsmouth on August 4, and soon afterward a silver service bought by the government of British Columbia for the cruiser was placed on board. The cruiser will he In command of Commander Stewart, and the following officers have been appointed to the vessel: Lieutenants A. E. D. Moore, R.H.C., Halifax, R. V. Holt and R. T.
