CLEARING RESERVE Question of Removing Shacks is Again Brought Before the City Council The Rat Menace Is Also Before tlie lioai-d for Consideration The question of clearing the Grand Trunk Pacific reserve has again come before the council. It first arise at the meeting of the council on Wednesday evening when a report was received from the health officer going into the rat question, came up. This report went on to state that the Prince Rupert rat was really a fine type of the family and in a fine condition of health apparently. There was the danger that he might become affected with disease from the landing of less desirable rodents. The good work done by the rats as scavengers on the Grand Trunk Pacific reserve was also referred to by the LONG SESSION * (Special to The Journal) * * LONDON, April 21.—The * * House of Commons sat until * * 3:35 Friday morning. A num- * * ber of opposing amendments to * * the clause in the bill limiting * * the powers of the House of * * Lords over measures other than * * money bills being rejected. * > * health officer, who acknowledged that a debt was due to his ratship on this score. In conclusion it was recommended that the best methods of grappling with the question was by the appointment of an official rat catcher or by the use of the virus used formerly. On this report, Aid. Clayton moved, seconded by Aid. Morrissey, to have the Grand Trunk Pacific reserve cleared at once. At the present time there was no system of collecting garbage. These rats fed on the garbage. If the reserve was cleared there would be much done to settle this rat question, as the reserve was a breeding place for these rats. Aid. Newton thought Aid. Clayton did not really deal with the rat question. He proposed that the health officer's report be referred to the health committee. The rat report was referred to the health committee. It was decided that Aid. Clayton's motion was not quite in order here, to which the alderman agreed. It was decided to take it up later. When it was again brought up, Aid. Kerr wanted to know if it was the intention of the mover and seconder to clear all the reserves of the Grand Trunk Pacific. Aid. Kirkpatrick wanted to know what authority the city had. Some of these buildings might be rented from the Grand Trunk Pacific. Aid. Clayton argued that the action was proposed on tbe ground of public health. It was pointed out that the city rented its hall, which was on the reserve. The effect of the motion might be to drive the city out of its hall. Aid. Morrissey contended that the shack section was a menace to health. Many of these strikers who affected the situation now, lived there. Some of these people who lived in these shacks paid no rent, but had property elsewhere which they rented. His Worship said it appeared to him that these places would have to be dealt with on their merits. One place might be clean while the one next to it might be a menace "to health. The council could only deal with those that were unsanitary. Aid. Morrissey called attention to the assurance given by the Grand Trunk Pacific that the reserve was to be cleared in six months. Business men had to get off the reserve and why should these others not. Aid. Clayton, after discussion, amended his motion, making it read as a request to the Grand Trunk Pacific that steps be taken to clear the reserve of shacks. The motion carried. POWER, GAS AND STREET RAILWAY FOR CITY Tsimpsean Company Proposes to Make Agreement With Prince Rupert and in Doing so to Abandon Rights Claimed Under Special Charter Given by Legislature—R. Brutinel Representing Organization Puts His Proposition Before Citizens for Consideration—Will Not Interfere With the Municipality's Desire to Look After i Distribution of Light. The city of Prince Rupert has now a proposition placed before it from R. Brutinel, of the Tsimpsean Light and Power Company. In effect the offer is made by him to set aside the charter obtained by the company from the legislature In 1907 in so far as the city of Prince Rupert is concerned, and in lieu of it substitute an agreement to be entered into between the city and the company. The charter of the company has been the subject of considerable criticism in this city. If a workllng basis can be agreed upon these objections may be overcome and something more acceptable to the city obtained. While Mr. Brutinel does not state so in as many words, there is little doubt that, failing a settlement with the city the company will rely upon its charter and go back to it as a means by which it may carry on operations here. On another page are published the tentative agreements which Mr. Brutinel has prepared. These agreements have been submitted to the council and form a basis upon which negotiations will be conducted. The head of the Tsimpsean company has asked the council to go fully into these agreements and study the different aspects of the proposition so that when the time comes for action the subject may be discussed in an intelligent way. Tlie Tsimpsean company, apparently realizes that this city is to become a great industrial centre and desires to be in a position to act quickly in the matter of meeting the demands to be put upon it in the supplying of power, etc. Mr. Brutinel, who ranks high as an electrical engineer, has prepared the draft agreements himself. He prefers to work independent of lawyers to a large extent, and so draft ed the agreements that are put before the council and which appear on another page. Separate Agreements He has divided the propositions into three separate departments, the gas supply, the electrical power supply and the tramway service. Backed up by plenty of capital, the Tsimpsean company is prepared to bring each of these up to the fullest requirements of the time. His plans are far advanced and before he left this morning for the south, Mr. Brutinel had made all arrangements for the necessary surveys in connection with the water propositions held by the company and the route for the transmission wire. He will return to the city in a short time and go fully into the questions raised with the council, when a settlement will be sought and the company will then be in a position to proceed with the actual work deemed necessary. The first work will be that of a gas plant, followed by a power plant and in turn the tramline service. Mr. Brutinel was accompanied to the city on this trip by Mr. Hay- ward, the engineer in charge of the Western Power Company, which is developing the Stave Lake proposition near Vancouver. Mr. Hayward has looked into the various schemes with Mr. Brutinel and is well satisfied with the prospects. Addressed the Council On Thursday evening Mr. Brutinel appeared before the council and briefly outlined the objects he had in view. Mr. Brutinel, before the city coun ell, explained that his company would first instal a gas plant. About 1,200 people had agreed to take gas. The proposition he would submit would be a simple one. The company would ask to lay the pipes along the streets and make connections. The city would have the right to buy the undertaking under the Municipal Clauses Act conditions after forty years. The Tsimpsean company would agree to waive the special rights given by the act. of Incorporation. The company wanted to work in harmony with the city. In connection with the power department the company did not quarrel with the city handling its own power. Power in large quantities at a reasonable rate was a most valuable asset to a city. To develop power by steam was out of the question where expensive coal and high labor was continued. All industries nowadays were seeking electric power. His company was ready to make a start to develop power. If they reached Prince Rupert in accordance with an agreement entered into, they would be willing to make an arrangement to sell power to the city. Valuable Asset The company would ask the city to buy power from them. This would be a matter to decide whether the council would purchase power or develop it themselves. The company in this power proposition also was ready to give the city the privilege to purchase the undertaking in the city under the conditions of the Municipal Clauses Act after forty years. Aid. Clayton asked if this purchase proposal applied only to the works in the city and not to the source of supply. Mr. Brutinel said it did not apply to the source of power. This would be a long way out of the city. He did not think the Municipal Clauses Act gave the city the power to hold such a proposition. Street Railway In the matter of street railways Prince Rupert would very shortly have a need. His company proposed to begin by building a line from one end to the other. He proposed to offer a~very special agreement. He did not propose to have one of those cast iron agreements. The company proposed to take care of the roadway between the tracks and on each side which would equal about one-third of the road. It is proposed to share the profits with the city on a sliding scale by giving from 3 per cent to 10 per cent on the gross earnings, according to the amount of these earnings. With respect to the propositions, Mr. Brutinel said he would have them ready for the council the next day. Time for Consideration He desired the city to go very fully into the proposed agreement. He was not trying to take any advantage of the city and only wanted careful consideration. Aid. Morrissey wanted to know if each of these propositions were separate, if the city could take the gas proposition, for instance, and reject the others. Mr. Brutinel said they were all independent. Asked as to the time when the propositions could be in working order here, he said that the gas could be delivered in about six months after the agreement was entered into. As to the power, that could be working in about nine months from date. The tramway service would depend upon the population. He should think that with 15,000 of a population it would be necessary As to rates, he quoted $1.50 for gas for cooking and heating; $1.75 for lighting; while if the city wanted gas to supplement the electric lighting it would be put in at $1,25 a thousand. No better advertisement, he said, could be had by a city than a prosperous company doing work in it. Vancouver had profited by the success of the B. C. Electric Company and its subsidiary organizations. LIBERAL CAMP SPLIT Frank Oliver is Not Held in the Highest Favor by Whole of Western Party. Appeals Are Being Made to Get Together ami Heal up Sores (Special to The Journal) EDMONTON, April 21.—Frank Oliver concluded on of his liveliest visits to Edmonton yesterday when he left for Lethbridge, where he will once more speak on reciprocity. Mr. Oliver's paper, the Bulletin, comes out with an appeal to Edmonton Liberals to "Get Together." The Bulletin further openly de- dares that there is a faction In the Liberal camp here that seeks the political death of the minister of the interior. 11 is quite apparent that the party is not by any means a united one heroic methods will have to be resorted to to bind up the disagreement!! that exist. TO EXPEDITE WORK Contractors are Advised by City Council to Make all Haste Possible. Question of Extensions of Time Will Receive Attention of the Board nnd lie Communicated EXPECT MORE VEINS Promising Outlook at Silver Cup Nine is Reported by the Superintendent. Work Closed Down Awaiting Supplies—Will Start up.with Early Spring Superintendent Rod McCrimmon, of the Silver Cup Mine returned to Hazelton with all the crew on April 1, closing down the property on account of a shortage of supplies. It will probably be a month or six weeks before work can be resumed. Mr. McCrimmon confirmed statements that have been made that the property is capable of turning out ore of good grade in sufficient quantities to guarantee dividends for many years, once given something better tHian pack-mule transportation off the mountain. He said: "Owing to a shortage of supplies, we have been compelled to close down for a short time. Since I took charge in January operations have been contined to the Duke claim, where a tunnel was driven 112 feet, having more or less ore all the way. This ore will average from one to two feet in width and over 100 feet of depth has been obtained at the face. I got into the tunnels on the Silver Cup vein and was pleasantly surprised at the showing there. When the transportation question is worked out a little better the company will be in a position to go ahead and make money out of their ore." Samples of ore from the Duke claim sent to the office at Prince Rupert yielded $136.21 a ton in silver and lead. Mr. McCrimmon is of the opinion that further prospecting on the surface of the Silver Cup group Is very likely to result in the discovery of more veins. COMING TO OUR CITY Fred Peters, K.C. of Victoria, Will Practice Law in Prince Rupert. Prominent Legal Light Has Decided to Follow Profession Here (Special to The Journal) VICTORIA, April 21.—Fred Peters, K. C, of this city, is about to give up practice here and move to Prince Rupert, where lie will follow his profession. He expects to leave for the north early in May. Mr. Peters has been prominent not only as a lawyer but also in the politics of tlie county. He was premier of Prince Edward Island before coming west many years ago. .... THE DOIKLE SKR\ ICE Tomorrow morning (he Grand Trunk Pacific steamer Prince George will arrive In port, thus beginning the double weekly service for the company which is to continue during the summer. The company is taking sleps to see that the best of service is provided the north this year. . . • » • . . . . L. Bullock-Webster has submitted to the council a revised price for numbering houses in the city. He explained in his letter that he did so because of the decision which seemed to have been reached to adopt the block system. This would take more figures than the consecutive system. He was willing to do the work for 20 cents a house under the new system. HE FOUND NO COAL PROGRESSIVE FIRMS Prominent Vancouver Investor Had Fruitless Trip to Lignite Beds. R. C. Campbell Johnstone in Search of Mineral Had Hard Trip for No Purpose R. C. Campbell Johnstone of Vancouver, who is interested deeply in coal propositions near the headwaters of the Skeena, northwest of Kispiox, arrived in the city yesterday from Bella Coola, leaving again this morning for Vancouver. Mr. Johnstone has just come In from a search for coal reported almost 45 miles from deep water, in from Bella Coola. His trip involved the covering of a distance of 17 ■"> miles, which was made under ex- ceedlngly bad conditions. To add to the vexations of the trip, the coal reported was not to be found. Instead of coal deposits there was only lignite and the trip was consequently a fruitless one. Tlie location where the coal was supposed to be in place was described by Mr. Campbell Johnstone as exceedingly inaccessible. Within easy reach of Bella Coola, he says there is every indication that there are good copper and gold propositions to be developed. Speaking of the coal of the Skeena headwaters, however, Mr. Campbell Johnstone has no doubt. Last session of the legislature an act was passed incorporating the Skeena and Naas Valley Railway. This line it to be the means by which the coal is to be brought to the coast. It will tap the mines and proceed to deep water by means of the Naas Valley. The coal, he says, Is anthracite, the only coal of that quality on the coast. In consequence there will be a ready sale. The line of railway is J.H. Kugler and J. H. Rogers Will Put Down Sidewalk in Front of Offices. Grade Will Not Be Changed Near the Market Place in Interests of Teaming Some business affecting street work was disposed of at last Wednesday's council meeting. The request of The Continental Trust Company and .1. II. Rogers for the building of a sidewalk in front of their new offices on Second avenue had been referred back to them with tlie information that such work was only done as a work to be paid for by those directly interested. They had consented to do this and the engineer recommended permission being given. The report was adopted, A petition wns read asking for tbe calling for tenders and the not letting of It by day labor, for a plank roadway on Seventh avenue from Fulton to Dunsmuir. Tills was referred to the streets committee. The city engineer reported against the raising of tlie grade of Third avenue and First avenue, opposite the Market Place, as petitioned for, on the ground that il would be a disadvantage to increase the grade by this means from tlie Grand Trunk Pacltlc yards and the waterfront. The report was adopted. not difficult to build nnd an early start will be made. It is not the intention of his company to ally with any other line. Its object Is to open up the coal properties and develop the district through which It runs. Several of the city street contractors wrote the council on Wednesday evening with respect to the extension of time. The council in reply has stated that the matter Is receiving consideration and that in the meantime the contractors should use all diligence to expedite the work. S. P. McMordie & Co. wrote, asking if it was the intention of the city council to apply the penalty clause, and asked an immediate answer. J. R. Morgan wrote that he had been delayed in consequence of a change in grade, awaiting the building of a retaining wall and the strike. S. II. Watson & Co. wrote that tbe firm had been delayed awaiting the engineer's stakes being placed, by extra grubbing, awaiting a culvert and by the strike. His Worship thought the council would have to go into the subject fully before deciding. Aid. Morrissey moved to inform the contractors- that the question of extension of time was only now receiving attention. When a decision was reached it would be communicated to them. In tlie meantime the contractors should be advised to proceed with all due haste. The motion carried. o TO CLOSE DEBATE Liberal Party Decide That They Will Cut Off Discussion in House Prorogation Seems ill Siiilil hy .Maj •_>l—Steel Bounties I'n- d«-i- Discussion i Special iii The Journal i Ottawa. April 31.— The Liberal caucus has decided em the suggestion of Sir Wilfrid I.Hurler that tlie debate on reciprocity from the Liberal siii|. can now be wisely cut short in tbe belief thai the agreement needs little further vindication before tlie country. The onus of continuing the debate and thus delaying prorogation, will bo left with the opposition speakers, but it is expected they will not continue the fight much longer. A vigorous effort will be made to reach a vote early in May and wind up the remaining business before May 24, Iron Bounty There has been some discussion upon tbe renewal of the bounties on iron and steel rods for eighteen months from July I, when, according to the present legislation, they will expire. It Is not Improbable that some measure of temporary assistance will be granted along the lines suggested. PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL Friday, April 21, 1911 TIMBER OF NORTH Interesting Report Made by Cruiser Upon the Forest Wealth. Need of Preservation of Wealth of Interior Wooded Lands Portion An interesting and exceedingly informative report has just been made to Hon. Mr. Taylor, Provincial Minister of Public Works and Railways, by that veteran prospector and timber cruiser, Mr. D. D. McPhail, who has presented in concise form the results of his personal observation and intimate knowledge of the country comprising the valleys of Stuart River and Lake, Thatcher River, Trembleur Lake, Middle River, North Tacla Lake and Driftwood River—in fact, of all that long navigable waterway stretching north from a point on the line of the Grand Trunk Pacific opposite the mouth of the Stuart River to approximately fifteen miles up Driftwood River, a distance altogether of about two hundred miles. Throughout a portion of this distance, or between the mouth of Stuart River and Trembleur Lake, the land has been surveyed to the extent of about two hundred thousand acres, with probably as much more "blocked out" for future surveys. From Trembleur Lake north to Driftwood River, and including the lower valley of the latter stream 250,000 acres would be a conservative estimate of the arable land, so that to say that there is 500,000 acres of desirable land suitable for settlement adjacent to these waters and lakes would, in Mr. McPhall's opinion, be a reasonable estimate. This land, he states, will compare most favorably with that of other sections of the same district con- taning large areas, such as the Nechaco and the Bulkley Valley. Rivers Navigable Referring more particularly to navigation, Mr. McPhail reports that when this water stretch is spoken of as navigable, it may be said that a steamer was n early days taken through to Tacla Lake—the hull is now to be seen on Trem bleur Lake—and very recently steamers have gone through from Fort George to the first of the canyons on the Stuart River. From the viewpoint of commercial facility, however, the adoption of this waterway as a transportation route is said to be contingent upon works of improvement being carried out at various points. These, going north, and their approximate cost would be needed improvements. On tlie Stuart River, first about five miles above its mouth or junction with the Nechaco River at Chinlac, there is a widening of the river and rapids. The trouble here is lack of water, and the remedy prescribed, confining the channel, which work would require the construction of two wing dams and a removal of a number of boulders, at a cost of approximately $10,000. Again, above Chinlac, for about twelve miles, swift water prevails, requiring tlie removal of boulders in places and the provision of one wing dam about ten miles from the river mouth, Which would cost about $5,000. For the next thirty-eight and a half miles the Stuart is a slow-flowing, "even" river, a beautiful stream traversing a fine country, more especially to the east. At fitty-flve and a half miles from the mouth, there is a short canyon with abundance of water, but requiring the removal of boulders at a cost of $2,000. This Is the last obstacle, Stuart Lake being entered about fifty-eight miles from Its mouth. Tatcher River, fifteen and a half miles in length, although smaller than the Stuart, runs plenty of water for small steamers. Improvements are required to provide safe navigation at two points. The difficulties are short rapids and would be very simply eliminated by the removal of the boulders. The first of these rapids occurs about two and a half miles from Stuart Lake, and the second ahout ten and a half miles from tnat body of water, expenditures of $5,000 and $2,000 being necessitated. Middle River, connecting Trembleur and Tacla Lakes, with a length of approximately twenty miles, Is an easy-flowing stream, upon which no improvements are requisite. Driftwood River is navigable for ahout foru miles, In which distance no improvements are necessary beyond the cutting out of a log jamb about one and a half miles from North Tacla Lake. A Possible Waterway It was thought last year by those engaged on the project that steamboat communication could be maintained between Fort George and Stuart Lake, and that experiments proved a failure, should not be considered detrimental to the ultimate use of this waterway as a most advantageous factor in settling the lands adjacent to it. Mr. McPhail does not think that the difference in elevation between the mouths of the Stuart and the Driftwood Rivers will reach one hundred feet, and it is his opinion, further that this route could be made easily available for five months in the year with a nominal expenditure. There is at present a wagon road constructed from -Milne's Landing on the Nechaco River to within a few miles of Stuart Lake, communication with Fort St. James, across the Stuart River being secured by Indian ferry. An extension of this road northerly would undoubtedly cross the Stuart River by a bridge at the "Little Canyon," one mile below the lake, the present ferry being a long one worked with oars and poles. Thence the road would follow generally the route taken by the old Omineca or Manson Creek trail. In Mr. McPhail's opinion, owing to its advantageous position along the waterways just described, the adjacent lands will be rapidly settled. There wolud, however, be required some means of communication otherwise during the winter, and more especially during the spring and late autumn months. This, he thinks, would best be provided by diverting the road from the old Omineca trail before reaching Tezzeron Lake, and traversing generally south of that lake and the Kuzkwa River, this stream being crossed to the east of Trembleur Lake. This road would traverse a good country and give access with short branches to the lake and river settlements. Lying to the north of such a line of communication is the Nation Lake and River country, in which, according to Mr. McPhail, exploration will disclose the existence of excellent areas. An extension of the road from Trembleur Lake, or from some point further south as may be found expedient, into this region and eventually to the Peace River is only a question of time. Rouds Displace Trails "It occurs in my vocation in this Province," says Mr. McPhail, in conclusion, "to travel considerably over the trails in the first instance and the wagon roads which are rapidly taking their place, and it Is a source of satisfaction to me to be in a position to testify to the care apparent in the location in those latter and the good work put in upon them. The north country, especially, is yet to be made. It is a land of grand distances. Your policy of providing reasonably good communication throughout a comparatively unknown country will be abundantly justified in the response of homeseekers when shown the way before the advancement of what will be one of the Province's greatest districts, and an everlasting source of satisfaction to those who dictated it. I would, however, bring to your consideration the fact that wagon roads fall short of utility where communication thereby is dependent upon the uncertain ferry. Touching upon road building, the advantages from the use of donkey engines in construction work in the heavily timbered districts of Vancouver Island is most noticeable." 0 VANCOUVER LACROSSE CORONATION DETAILS Arrangements to be Carried Out at Interesting Event in London. The Part Which the King Will Piny in the Ceremonies In J line Next Newsy Lalonde, the greatest home player in the lacrosse game, lias signed a Vancouver contract along with Don Phelan, the Cornwall home fielder, who was the find of the season In the N. L, U. in 1910, and the pair have started for the coast. Following the example set by the New Westminster club in strengthening up by securing outside talent of repute, the officials of the Vancouver club have set about to build up a strong team this season, and they have already signed up the majority of last season's team and now have secured the signatures of Lalonde and Phelan to 1911 contracts. In addition to signing up Lalonde and Phelan, Mr. Con Jones, president of the Vancouver Club, has signed Harry Pickering, the big defence fielder; George Matheson, the hardworking defence man, and Archie Adamson, the tricky inside home player. Job Printing of all kinds neatly executed at the Journal Office. Details connected with the coronation of King George and Queen Mary are practically settled. The actual crowning will be performed by the Archbishop of Canterbury, while the Archbishop of York will preach the coronation sermon. In every feature, the ceremony will at least equal In brilliancy any previously held. King George, with his consort, on entering the Abbey, will proceed immediately to chairs of state on the south side of the altar. Presentation of the King to the people for recognition, a survival of the ancient Teutonic usage of popular election, will be performed by the Archbishop of Canterbury. Then His Majesty will proceed to the other corners of the thaetre, receiving the acclamations of the congregation. Next comes the Litany, sung by two bishops, after which the Archbishop begins the communion service, followed by the sermon. Upon its conclusion, the King, already having made the declaration from which has been eliminated the clause anathematizing the Roman Catholic belief, takes the oath kneeling at the altar. The follows the anointing and the King sits in the chair of Edward I, containing the Lia Fail or Stone of Destiny, brought from Scone by that monarch, which legend tells was "Jacob's Pillow." After the anointing, the King is solemnly blessed. Investiture follows. The "Colobium Sidonis," a surplice of fine white linen or silk, is put on first, then comes the pall of cloth of gold with a girdle of the same material. The King's heels are touched with the great golden spurs, and he Is girt with the sword, which he afterwards offers upon the altar, whence it is redeemed for the sum of 100 shillings— an assertion of the independence of the secular arm. After the armill, or stole, has been placed on the King's shoulders, with prayer, His Majesty is invested with the royal robe, and to him are handed the orb, the sceptre with the cross and the sceptre with the dove, "the rod of equity with mercy." The placing of the crown, received with cries of "God Save the King" within the Abbey and sounding of trumpets and firing of guns without, completes the coronation.

It is where the steel rails of the transcontinental railway from the Atlantic touch the salt waters of the Pacific on the navigable waters of the Skeeno River.. As a port it will be second only to Prince Rupert in the northern part of this province and is also second to this city as the only other town- site in which the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway and the Government are jointly Interested and in which lots are now offered for sale. <********************************************************* * * •; * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * What are We Here For ? We .are all Pioneers. Not here for our health, but to make money. No man ever saved more than a competence on a salary; few do that. To get a footing on "Easy Street" you have to invest. DOLLARS don't grow in your pocket, or in a stocking. They must be put to work. Old Russell Sage said: "Plant a few in a new country and see how fast they grow." That's what your Uncle is telling you, and here is the biggest opportunity of this kind that is likely to knock at your door this year. // You Own Ellison Lots List Them With Us. * * * * * * * * * * * i ************************************************************t************************** Read Current History Prince Itupert lot speculators do not need to have pointed out to them what magic lies in the announcement that the great railway company and the government arc partners in the Ellison townsite. That should be enough to bring them a-iuiining. But not everybody has the time to read the newspapers -s closely as your unrlc. In the Manitoba Free Press of April 5th, for instance, there was a big headline reading: "Hundred and Seventy New Towns to be Bot'n in Western Canada During the Coming Year." Reading the list one finds many are Grand Trunk Pacific towns, but not one in British Columbia. No, Ellison and Prince Rupert are the townsites in this province in Welch the railway is directly interested at this time. ELLISON—Where Atlantic Locomotives will toot salute to Pacific Steamers on the Skeena River—ELLISON WHY ELLISON SHOULD GROW ONE of the most popular of all the official reports published by the British Columbia Columbia Government is the one bearing upon its title page the caption: "New British Columbia," which has become generally known as "Bulletin No. 22," that being the official number of the report. It has been widely distributed and you will have little difficulty in finding one. On one page of this popular report you will read this official declaration: "Upper Skeena will become one of the garden spots of British Columbia." ELLISON, from its advantageous position, with the Skeena River navigable for large steamers at Its front and a great transcontinental railway intersecting -it, should naturally become the metropolis of the wonderful garden spot of British Columbia referred to in the official report. ELLISON lots are ready sellers. Why? Just study the map a minute or two. ELLISON is a townsite in which the Government and the Grand Trunk Pacific are active partners. There can, therefore, be not even a shadow of doubt as to its future success. You are invited to share in this certain success by investing in a few town lots while they are at bottom prices. There are only a few on sale anu unless you are Johnny-on-the-spot on the day announced as the Opening Day of our sale you may be disappointed. Better make your deposit as soon as possible and we will get you in on it at the prices fixed for our first offering. ELLISON should, within a short time, have a regular train service, as it Is but a little distance from l^Ile 104, to which point It is expected that trains from Prince Rupert will be running this summer. ELLISON may not be the only pebble on the Skeena River beach, but it certainly is the only townsite on that navigable water In which the railway company have announced themselves interested. No doubt next year there may be other additions and sections put on the market, but by that time prices will Ask Uncle Jerry For reservation of lots in Ellison or Rogers' Addition to Ellison, write or wire J . H . KV G L E It Prince Rupert, II. C. have gone up. Now you have a chance to be in on the ground floor. DOLLARS invested in good ground, rapidly grow. Did you look at that map? WHERE the Grand Trunk Pacific and the Government are Joint owners in a townsite the lots should be regarded as a safe invest nent. Your money invested in ELLISON, or in Rogers addition or any section that may be offered later, is safeguarded by every legal method human foresight can conceive. Where one might and properly should hesitate before investing in townsites promoted by individuals or town-promoting companies, there can be no hesitancy or misgiving as to town lots in which the Government and the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway are jointly interested. ELLISON is different.. Do you catch on? What better guarantee can you possibly look for? ELLISON lots should double and treble and then go up some. It Is believable that they will soar four or five times above present prices. You are a lucky chap today if you own even one. If you should think of selling it and want quick action, list It with us. We feel confident the demand for these lots will exceed the number wc have at present to offer. PRINCE RUPERT'S brief history will be repeated in the sale of ELLISON town lots. ELLISON should have the most rapid growth of any new town in British Columbia or anywhere else. Lots in the sections we are now offering for sale, as well as such additions and sections that may be j offered later, may be calculated to bring investors similar returns to those resulting from the first sale of Prince Rupert town lots. ELLISON, where the Grand Trunk Pacific Transcontinental trains from the Atlantic will first strike that wonderful Skeena River. ELLISON is probably the greatest opportunity for Investing a few dol lars on a reasonably certain chance of winning big profits you are likely to see this year. But don't forget that the number of lots is limited and you will have to hurry some if you want to pick out one of the choicest locations. ELLISON needs at present merchants, hotel men, "the baker, the butcher and the candlestick maker," more than 'nt speculators, but they will com ■ la er all right, as they did in Prince Rupert, and pay BIG RENTS. ELLISON trades people will live TIME TO GET A "HONCK wiMnviaf in a town where railway freight rates will always be regulated by the competition of water transportation, as Ellison will be the last Important landing up the Skeena River. It Is where the railway leaves the Skeena Valley to follow that of the famous Bulkley Valley. ELLISON is your opportunity. GRAB IT. "Opportunity knocks at every man's door.". Knocks all the time but some people are sleepy. ELLISON is on the market NOW. It is very doubtful if any other Grand Trunk townsite in Britisii Columbia will be on the market this year. Better come in early and get a little Ellison in your list of holdings. Start a few dollars to work there and see what they will earn E L L I S 0 N E L L I S 0 N DO YOU SEE THAT HUMP? THAT'S ELLISON.

KUGLER °"^2^ Prince Rupert British Colombia Trunk Terminal ELLISON is destin 1 to be the principal shipping point not only for the agricultural belt in the Bulkley and uujacent valleys—just glance at the map again and see what a vast country will depend on ^llison for its supplies and transportation for its products. And then, when Grand Trunk officials announce the fact that it is THE townsite in the Hazelton di.trict in which their company is interested, you are reminded of the great mining activity thpt district is promised this season, the machinery to go in and the rich ore to come out. ELLISON, the metropolis of "The garden spot of British Columbia." Remember that railway townsites cannot be chosen 'ii British Columbia like they are on the prairie between Winnipeg and Edmonton— every eight miles a tewn, every hem- dred arj 'hirty miles a divisional point. In British Columbia there is great engineering ability required to lay out a 'oute. many natural obstacle.- to contend with, and towns must be Rented where the engineers can find suitable land for sidings. Ellisoi > an iieeal spot for a town outside of its superiority geographically. Like grape nuts, "There's a reason,' wliy It should be at the point where the railway leaves the Skeena Valley.

Friday, April 21, 1911 FRED PETERS COMING The announcement that Fred Peters, K. C, of Victoria, is to take up the practice of law here, indicates that the outside is still alive to the possibilities of ibis city in every business and profession. .Mr. Peters has passed the stage of life when he is to be stirred simply by a love of a change. His coming can only be actuated by the prospects which Prince Rupert has in the immediate future. He will be welcomed by the legal fraternity of the city no doubt, as he is a solicitor of long practice and high repute. He is known through out the province and, in fact, throughout Canada in connection with his profession. His opinion, in fact, on more or less knotty questions was sought last year, it was generally understood, in connection with the city's legal business. A reference has been made to the possibility that he might be "an attorney general in embryo." Mr. Peters has been attorney general in fact in one of the provinces of this country, Prince Edward Island. For some time he was premier of that province but found the call of the west too strong and so came a number of years ago to the farthest west nad proceeding to build up a practice in partnership with Sir Hibbert Tupper. He represented the Dominion Government as counsel in the Ben- ring Sea arbitration and has filled many other important positions, so that Prince Rupert is acquiring in Mr. Peters a man who is an honor to his profession. He was at one time prominently mentioned as a probable successor to Hon. James Dunsmnir as Lieutenant Governor of the province. The presence of Mr. Peters, with the wide and varied experience which he brings to bear, will be to the advantage of the whole legal profession of the city. railway policy those who should have been friendly had maligned him and endeavored to destroy whatever character he had in his adopted home. On a motion proposed by Mr. Leonard Tait and seconded by Mr. J. J. Bittancourt, the name of Mr. Jardine was placed on the membership roll. FAVOR SINGLE TAN NEW WESTMINSTER—In the referendums the ratepayers decided by a small majority that they did not want a high school erected on Tipperary. They voted down the proposal to exempt the sites of churches, colleges and schools from taxation. The proposal to exempt improvements from taxation was carried by a large majority. DELAYED ACTION City Council Has Not Acted Upon the Resignation of Aid. Pattullo MUCH PAVING STUDY AGREEMENTS The Tsimpsean Power Company has placed before the city council three propositions with respect to gas, power and street railways. These have been presented in the form of tentative agreements, which the council will have to thresh out with Mr. Brutinel and reject, revise or confirm. The citizens, in any event; will have to pass upon the agreement reached. The questions involved are important. The fullest consideration should be given lo these so that the best agreement possible may be made for the city. It is a duty which every citizen owes to the place that he study these questions to the fullest extent and be prepared to give a ripe judgment when the time comes to vote on the propositions. This is the people's business and should be carefully studied. By taking a rational view of the situation, and giving the propositions careful study it will be possible, undoubtedly for Prince Rupert to reach a good agreement with the Tsimpsean company. The agreements should not be rushed into without full consideration. There should on the other band be no unnecessary delay. Tlie utilities concerned are essential to the life of the city. They will likely be required before most of us realize. The present is a time to study the situation and so be prepared for a ripe decision when the hour arrives. VICTORIA—What Victoria is doing in the way of assisting the good roads movement is indicated by the fact that the purchasing agent is now calling for tenders for the construction of approximately 600,000 square yards of asphalt pavement— no less than thirty-six miles of pavement. This work, in addition to that already let—some 200,000 yards—calls for an expenditure of nearly $2,000,000. The demand for improved streets, constructed under the local improvement scheme, is so great that with all the large amount of work projected still another call for tenders will probably soon be made. o ENGINE IS HERE City Will Not Take It Over Until Agreements Are Forth- coining The combined hose automobile and chemical engine has reached the city and is being subjected to a test under Mr. Lee, representing the supplying company. It has been discovered that the agreements and specifications have never been returned to the city after execution here. Pending the arrival of these the council will refuse to formally accept the engine. Temporary quarters will be found but it will be without prejudice to the city that this accommodation is afforded. DEATH OF W. 8. McDONELL Well-Known Hotel Proprietor in the Interior, Pusses Away at Ha. zclton Hospital ************************** | News of the Province % * 7 ************************** ENROLLED AS CONSERVATIVE VICTORIA — Conservatives at Esquimau elected officers as follows for the ensuing year: Honorary presidents, Mr. Richard McBride, Mr. C. E. Pooley and Mr, H. D. Helmcken, K. C.; president, Mr. R. H. Pooley; vice president, Mr. Duncalf; secretary, Mr. J. Saunders. Being invited to address the meeting, Mr. John Jardine said that simply because lie saw fit to support Hon. Richard McBride's W. S. McDonell, the well-known Telkwa hotel keeper, and son of R. J. McDonell, of Hazelton, died at the Hazelton Hospital Friday afternoon at four o'clock, after nearly a month's illness, says the Omineca Herald, of Hazelton. The cause of his untimely demise was heart failure. He was first taken ill at Jiis place of business in Telkwa, nearly a month ago, with inflammatory rheumatism and he was brought to the local hospital for treatment. Since his arrival here relatives and friends have hovered between fear and hope for his ultimate recovery but a turn for the worse carried him off. The young man was born in Victoria and lacked four days of being 23 years old at the time he died. Besides the sorrowing father, two brothers, George and James, and a sister, Mrs. Robert Burns, of Fort George, are left to mourn his loss. He was a member of Omineca Aerie, F. O. E., and was secretary of the Conservative Club at Telkwa. "Billy" McDonell, as he was known by a host of friends, came to the interior from Port Essington nearly a year ago wliere he had resided with his father for a number of years. To give a start In life his father purchased and gave to him the New Telkwa Hotel at Telkwa early last summer, which he was engaged in conducting up to the time of his illness. As one of the thoroughly popular young men of the district, and of a wide acquaintance the news of his demise will be learned with regret by one and all. The body has been embalmed and will be taken to the coast for burial as soon as navigation opens. The city council has not yet acted upon Aid. Pattullo's resignation. The letter of Aid. Pattullo came up at last Wednesday's meeting for the first time, but in view of the fact that the election must be brought within ten days after the acceptance of the resignation, action was deferred. Upon the reading of the letter of Aid. Pattullo, His Worship said he felt all would regret that Aid. Pattullo found it necessary to resign. He supposed the only thing to be done was to accept it. If deemed wise it might be left over as the act required the holding of the election within ten days from Its acceptance. After some discussion it was decided to leave the matter of the acceptance of the motion over. With respect to the forfeit to be collected in case of a resignation, about which Aid. Pattullo asked for a decision, some discussion took place, when it was interpreted by the mayor that the infliction of a forfeit was optional. Aid. Newton felt that under those circumstances the forfeit should not be collected. This was acquiesced in by the other members of the council, but action was delayed until the resignation is dealt, with. o SPORTS KILLED BY FREIGHT CAR George W. McMillan, one of the best-known football players on the Pacific Coast, was i u over and almost instantly killed by a freight car in front of his grain warehouse at Thirteenth and Irving streets in Portland. McMillan's body was severed just above the hips. He was US years old. In crossing the track McMillan was forced to pass within a few inches of the end car. At this instant a locomotive in coupling on to the cars, shoved them along several feet. McMillan was knocked down and ground under the car trucks. AUTOMATIC GUNS PROHIBITED first guns use By an order-in-council just passed by-the provincial executive, the future use of automatic guns by British Columbia sportsmen has been prohibited as from the of September next. These have only come into general during the past few years and have been particularly favored by duck hunters, who with them have been enabled to slaughter the ducks by wholesale. The genera] opinion is that their use is the reverse of sportsmanlike and the action taken by the government will meet with the cordial approval of true sportsmen in all parts of the country. By a second order-in-council a closed season for sheep during the ensuing two years has been prescribed in the districts of Yale, Okanagan and Similkameen, and another year of immunity has been granted the wapiti in all parts of the mainland as from September 1. The wapiti of Vancouver Island already are under similar protection. Rev. J. P. Westman of Nelson has been appointed a field secretary for the Methodist Sunday school and the young people's societies, and will have charge of the work in Alberta and Saskatchewan. He will assume his new duties in June. The growth of the work demanded the appointment. WANTED WANTED—An assistant in the furniture business. Apply to J. F. MacDnnald, Second avenue. C. H.

The production of the Yukon is valued at $4,550,000, the total exports on which royalty was paid during the calendar year, according to the records of the Interior Department being 275,472.51 ounces. The Yukon production in 1909 was $3,960,- 000, the exports being 239,766.35 ounces. The British Columbia production in 1909 was: Placer gold, $477,000; bullion from free milling ores, $329,655; smelter recoveries, $4,367,924. In 1910 the placer production is estimated by the Provincial Mineralogist as $482,000. An estimate of free milling bullion shipments and smelter recoveries is made of $4,850,000, or a total production for the province of $5,432,- 000. The Nova Scotia production shows a falling off of about $20,000, while Ontario showed a slight increase on account of the gold recovered in development work at Porcupine, of which a record has not yet been received. The production of gold in Ontario last year, $60,918, though small, Is nearly double in value that of 1909. More than half the yield came from the new camp of Porcupine, where active developments are in progress, and where large stamp mills are being erected at the Hol- linger and Dome mines. A branch of the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway—the Ontario Government line—is being built into Porcupine from the main line at Mileage 222, near Kelso. At Long Lake, on the Sault branch of the Canadian Pacific Railway, gold Is being obtained by the Canadian Exploration Company from an arsenical ore. The old Mikado mine at Shoal Lake, Lake of the Woods and the Havilah, formerly the Ophir, in the township of Galbraith have been reopened. In Hastings County the Cordova or Belmont mine, long Idle, has recently changed hands, and it is understood will soon go again into commission. The following table shows the value of gold production in Canada for the past quarter of a century: Year. Value. 1886 $ 1,365,496 1887 1,187,804 1888 1,098,610 1889 1,291,159 1890 1,149,776 1891 930,614 1892 907,601 1893 976,603 1894 1,128,688 1895 2,083,674 1896 2,754,774 1897 6,027,016 1898 13,775,420 1899 21,261,584 1900 27,908,153 1901 24,128,503 1902 21,336,667 1903 18,843,590 1904 16,462,517 1905 14,159,195 1906 11,502,120 1907 8,382,780, 1908 9,842,105 1909 9,382,230 1910 10,224,910 Why the Figures Fluctuated The high production in 1899, 1900, 1901 and 1902 was due to the extraordinary output from the Klondike. The British Columbia placers were also producing heavily. In 1899 Ontario had its maximum production, but as it only amounted to slightly over $400,000, it did not have much influence on the total. The gold production of Nova Scotia has declined somewhat, that of Ontario has almost ceased, though Porcupine should prove a favorable factor during the next few years. That of BritiBh Columbia lode mines has steadily increased, so that the Pacific Coast province has now the greatest production in its history. The production of the Klondike is again increasing. THE WORLD'S PLATINUM Production of the Urals Shows Signs of FnlUng Off—Other Small Finds hausted. Almost all the platinum produced in Russia is refined in England, France and Germany. During 1909 some progress was made in the platinum bearing districts of Colombia, the exports of this metal to the United States in that year amounting to 2,392 ounces in comparison with 1,092 ounces in 1908, according to the Bureau of Statistics. A little platinum was won In British Columbia; a production of 440 ounces was recorded from New South Wales, and Sumatra and Borneo are believed to have yielded about 500 ounces. The actual production of crude platinum in the Urals In 1909 Is estimated at 190,087 Troy ounces. This output was smaller than usual, and It is probable that the reserves of workable (areas are being ex- LEAD PRODUOTION Estimate Made by Bounty Super. visor Upon What Has Been Produced in Province That the sum distributed by the Dominion Government in lead bounties during the fiscal year ending on March 31 will be in the neighborhood of a quarter of a million dollars, was a statement recently made by Mr. G. O. Buchanan, lead bounty supervisor. The amount of lead produced In the Kootenay district upon which the bounty is paid, will total approximately 17,000 tons. o ADVERTISING OUR APPLES British Columbia Fruit Attracts Much Attention In Birmingham Canadians who have visited Midlands recently have had an opportunity of seeing some oi the valuble work performed by the Canadian commercial agents resident in the large cities. In New street, the principal Birmingham business thoroughfare, in one of the principal shops, the sign "British Columbia Apples" attracted attention. These apples were in excellent condition, though part of the consignment of a carload which was exhibited at the Royal Horticultural Show in London over three months ago. The point is, however, that owing to the influence of the resident Canadian commercial agent, Mr. Mackinnon, they were advertised for what they were instead of being sold as Amer ican, or even as English grown as it is said is often the case. In places like Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield and Glascow, the appearance of such advertisements attracts more general notice to Canada than in London, where the immensity of the city and its numberless thoroughfares do not, except here and there, offer the same opportunity for such an exhibit. Even where it is installed it does not attract the same attention . At present Mr. B. Mackinnon is looking after the Manchester agency as well as his own in Birmingham pending the appointment of another Canadian trade commisioner in sucession to the late Mr. Macnamara. It is remarkab'e how many enquiries reach the British Columbia and other provincial offices for information about fruit lands as a result of these exhibits. The new Birmingham agency has received many enquiries owing to its window display and recent exhibits at Westminister. o Twenty dozen song birds, comprising six dozen goldfinches, six dozen brown linnets, a like number of green linnets and about two dozen English robins, will be imported hy the Natural History Society of Victoria, B.C., from London, and will be liberated in the vicinity of Victoria.

The Skeena River Valley, with its contiguous reaches of first- class fruit lands has, therefore, a great promise. The largest deal in fruit land yet put through in the Kettle Valley was consummated when the final papers were signed transferring to the Grand Forks Fruit & Nursery Company, the 225-acre tract of Martin Burrell, M. P., and the 160-acre tract of J. D. Honsberger. The Grand Forks Fruit & Nursery Company, was organized some three years ago, and purchased one hundred acrei- in the west end of the valley. At th^.t time it was the intention of the company to go in for fruit raising and nursery stock, as well as the raising of vegetables. 60 successful were Mr. Tweddle aijd his associates in their first undertaking, that last fall they com- pienced to look around for additional holdings, with the resu't that after several months' work J. D. Honsberger was instrumental in securing an option on the fine ranch of Martin Burrell, M. P., some five n^les east of the city. Along with this option Mr. Honsberger turned over to the Grand Forks Fruit & Nursery Company his own property, which gives the present company 485 acres of the best fruit land in the valley. Of this acreage twenty acres are planted on the Burrell ranch, 120 on the Honsberger ranch, and sixty- five acres on the company's own ranch. It is the intention of the company to increase this acreage planted to fruit to 330 within the next year. Fruit packing sheds will be erected at each of the points of the valley in which the three properties are located, and expert men will handle the crop. Transportation facilities could hardly be wished any better for the economical handling of the crops, as each of the proper ties are practically traversed by one of the railways of the district. The old company nad a capitalization of $25,000, while the new capitalization is $200,000. The officers of the company are as follows: President, J. D. Honsberger; secretary -treasurer and managing director, A. B. Tweddle; general manager, J. D. Honsberger. In addition to the above officers, the following compose the directorate: G. in. Hill, Jos. Tweddle and H. W. Collins. FIRE ESCAPES HOjSpitnl Board Will Instal System at the Institution—Business Transacted The hospital board at its meeting he'd on Wednesday afternoon considered the question of fire escapes at the institution. The president, D. G. Stewart, introducing tlie subject, said his attention and lhat of several others of the board had been called to the necessity for some means of escape, He thought It was imperative to act quickly. It was decided to refer the matter to the executive committee with power to act, after conferring with the fire chief. The fire equipment in tlie hospital, it was reported had been tested and found in good working order. It was decided to have the president have all tlie books and documents of the hospital placed in the office of the institution. A communication from tlie government agent relative to the admission of a provincial government patient, Moffat, was referred to the house committee. Hon. William Pugsley, minister of public works, has issued an order to the effect that the Union Jack must he flown from every public building in the Dominion on every day of the year except Sunday. A short time ago an order was issued authorizing the flying of the flag on the public buildings of border towns and seaports, and this has now been extended over the whole Dominion. rTEL. 187 2nd Avenue & McBride^ Fancy Groceries Family Groceries Fresh Groceries Green Vegetables Fresh Fruits Special Attention Given to Family Trade.

Local News A complaint received at the council meeting from Alex Douglas, against the fast driving of an auto was referred to the chief of police. Man May Not Marry Wife of De- censed Brother and Keep Within the Law A case in the criminal courts which will be followed with peculiar interest by both the legal profession and the general public is that of Rex vs. Herbert Baker, at New Westminster, concerning which Mr. W. Norman Bole, K. Q., who was acting for the crown, telegraphed to the attorney general's department that a committal has been secured and the defendant released by Judge Lampman on suspended sentence on payment of all crown costs. Baker was charged with a violation of the Marriage Act of British Colum bia, which follows closely the matrimonial law of Great Britain, his offence consisting in that he has contracted a marriage with his deceased brother's widow. That this is contra to law—even although marriage with a deceased wife's sister has been recently legalized—may not generally be known, but such is the fact. Mr. Baker, it is alleged, did not make his brother's widow a bride in ignorance of the law, his first application for a license to Registrar Pottenger at Vancouver having been refused and the obstacle in law clearly pointed out. Baker instead of accepting the seemingly inevitable, went to New Westminster and in the temporary absence of the sheriff secured a license from that official's deputy. That a marriage may not be legally contracted with the widow of a deceased brother is in strict accordance with the canons of the Anglican church, but nevertheless will possibly appeal to the majority as unnecessary and unwarranted restriction, scarcely defensible on the ground of consanguinity or for other reason. Quite possibly the Marriage Act may be amended to remove the restriction at a future session of the legislature, but meanwhile the legal impediment remains. As further illustrating the wonders of the law, it is stated authoritatively that although the offender who marries a brother's widow in defiance of ihis provision of the statute may, upon conviction, be visited with the prescribed pains and penalties of tlie act, the courts are not empowered to interfere with or invalidate the marriage, which is it tlie same time, therefore, both legal and illegal. 0 VADSO TOWED IN Tug William Jolliffe Brought the Freight Candor into Port The steamer Vadso, which met with a mishap which rendered her propellor useless, reached port yesterday with the tug William Jolliffe of the British Columbia Marine Railway Company, of Esquimau, towing. The Jolliffe will convoy the Vadso south. The accident happened near Rivers Inlet. 0 The final provisional census returns give the total population of India as 315,000,000, this being an increase of 26,500,000 as compared with the 1901 census. The only offer the city received for the old copper wire lines was tha: of C. B. Lockhart, who offered six cents a pound, which offer was accepted. For printing specifications for the engineer's department the council received the following tenders: Empire. $13; Journal, $23; Optimist, $22.7 5. The tender of the Empire was accepted. The popular St. Andrew's Society of this city will in about two weeks hold a social evening for the closing of the season.
