CLEARING SHORES
Council Discusses the Question of
Contracts to be Entered
Into.
the
The Cost of the Stave Pipes Comes
Up for Consideration on .\I<1.
Newton Seeking Information
The city council last evening
passed upon the forms of contract
which will be entered into by those
who accept the task of clearing the
shores of Woodworth Lake to make
It ready for the raising of the water.
The contracts provide for the completion of the work in two months
from the time of letting the contracts. It is set forth that as time
is the essence of the contract that
there will be no extension of time
allowed, but the penalty of $25 a
day will be enforced.
Aid. Hilditch suggested that as It
was essential to have a clause like
this it was hardly fair to insist upon
the station men doing the work alone
if they found it could not be completed in the time. He thought it
might be well to allow them to employ workmen if necessary to finish
in time.
Aid. Douglas suggested it should
be at 45 cents an hour that the men
should be employed. There should
be a regulation as to the charges for
board.
It was pointed out that the rate
was provided for already in the contract.
Aid. Newton suggested that it
should be specified that citizen workmen only should be employed.
A difficulty arose in defining a
citizen workman, Aid. Hllditch pointing out that a man has to be here
to be hired and being here would
constitute citizenship, so that while
all members of the council felt like
Aid. Newton, that they should see
that the residents of the city got the
preference, it was very difficult to
regulate it so as not to render the
clause of no effect.
, Aid. Kirkpatrick was of the opinion if two ma'.y of these restrictions
were worked in it would leave the
situation in such shape that a contractor or station man had no initiative in the matter. He would
prefer rather than to do this to call
it all aff and do the work by day
labor.
It was finally decided to allow the
right to station men to employ extra workers if necessary to finish
the work on time.
Aid. Newton asked the question
whether it had been ascertained that
the putting in of a municipal sawmill would effect a saving to the
city. He had been told by a man
who ought, to know that it would be
cheaper to buy the staves and not
put in the plant.
Aid. Hilditch pointed out that the
whole council had this matter in
hand. Aid. Newton did not require
to ask him the question he did as
., he had no more opportunity of knowing the facts connected with it than
had Aid. Newton. They were going
on the recommendation of Mr. Thomson, the expert engineer of Seattle.
In Seattle staves had jumped from
$25 to $45 a thousand in one night
and the city then put in its own
plant and manufactured them at
$8.35 a thousand. These facts had
been given to the council by Mr.
Thomson. Aid. Hilditch added that
he had figured the proposition out
with the city engineer on the ground
and was perfectly satisfied that there
would be a saving of about one-half.
Then if they bought the staves It
would be fir that would be supplied.
The life of these would be twenty
years. By using the yellow cedar,
as proposed, the life could be extended to 100 years. He was satisfied there was plenty of the yellow
cedar on the ground to meet the
demands.
Aid. Kerr agreed with this view
of the situation.
Aid. Newton said he did not know
anything about it. He was simply
stating what he had been told,
COAL ON SKEENA
Measures Found on Lome Creek Which
Promise to Give Good
Values.
Vancouver Syndicate Has Staked
Large Area Within the Producing District
REFERENCE MADE LEFT FOR UP RIVER
Reference Was Hade to it at Council
Meeting Last Evening.
Steps Are Well Advanced Towards
Abolishing This Method of
Election
Want Light
A petition was presented to the
council last evening asking for electric lights on Eighth Avenue between McBride and Fulton Streets.
Aid. Kerr reported that the light
committee had this under consideration and would give it as soon as
cluster lights arrived.
If British Columbia is a surprise
parcel, as Chief Justice Hunter has
been pleased to describe it, certainly
Northern Britisii Columbia would
seem to be the portion that has the
greater number of the valuable surprises. Every day as the country is
being more closely examined there
are rich resources coming to view.
Among the latest announcements
is the presence of coal of excellent
value on the Skeena River about
Lome Creek, or 130 miles from
Prince Rupert. The area has been
taked in the interests of a Vancouver
syndicate which has at its head R. D.
Rorison.
Lome Creek has been exploited as
a gold producing stream, but the
presence of coal seems for the most
part to have been overlooked. Out-
croppings were known but they never
seem to have been followed up to
any marked degree until taken up
this summer by a Vancouver syndicate and investigated on the ground
by G. W. Brady, an engineer of experience. He has been so well satisfied with the result of his investigations that he has staked a large area
which will be still further investigated and developed.
This latest coal discovery is right
on the G. T. P. It is of high quality
and the formation, Mr. Brady says,
promises well. The area will require
to have borings put down to ascertain the full value of the beds. The
quality of the outcropping is shown
by analysis to be excellent.
Mr. Brady left for the south by
the Camosun to report to his associates in Vancouver and decide upon
what is to be done.
PRODUCTIVE LANDS
Large Returns From the Kitsumkalum
Valley Obtained by F.
Bohler.
Thirty-fold Increase in Potato Crop
on Rich Farm Areas in
Interior
The lands of the Kitsumkalum
Valley is proving itself a rich field
for farming operations. F. Bohler,
who was in the city last week for
several days, proved the productiveness of the soil in the matter of
potato growing. Last spring he
planted fifty pounds of potatoes and
was rewarded this fall with fifteen
sacks of 100 pounds each.
The return is a heavy one and the
quality is equal to the famous Ashcroft potatoes. The Kitsumkalum is
apparently destined to be one of the
market garden sections that will supply Prince Rupert with its vegetables
as well as it fruits.
Invitation to Banquet
The Ladies' Aid of the Methodist
Church extended to the mayor and
council last evening an invitation to
attend the Thanksgiving banquet.
The invitation was accepted.
o
Prison Labor
The Longshoremen's Union wrote
to the council last evening protesting against the employment of a
chain gang. On motion it was referred to the police commissioners.
Rev. W. H. McLeod of the Baptist
Church has gone to Vancouver to
attend the Missionary Conference
there, and also the provincial Sunday School Convention.

SHORT SESSION
* (Special to The Journal) *
* Ottawa, Oct. 17.—Parliament *
* meets on November 15. It will *
* adjourn on Christmas for a brief *
* period and Premier Borden *
* hopes to prorogue before the end *
* of January. ,!
The ward system and the steps
that have been taken by the council
to have it abolished was introduced
into discussion at tlie council last
evening on a. proposed motion by
Aid. Newton.
Aid. Hilditch, as acting mayor,
suggested that this rightfully belonged to unfinished business, as it had
already been before the council many
months ago.
Aid. 'Newton said he never heard
anything of it at council meeting
and Aid. Douglas was ready with
his "me—too." Aid. Hilditch pointed out that when Mr. Hays and the
G. T. P. party were in the city the
question was taken up with Mr.
Hays. The council could only act
on a petition properly signed being
presented. The council felt that if
a petition was to be sufficiently
signed to be of any effect the G.T.P.
would have to sign it. Accordingly,
.Mr. Hays was approached and his
views on the question asked. He
was agreeable to it but he could not
sign such a petition without taking
it up at Montreal. Accordingly, the
petition went to Montreal.
A few weeks ago he (Aid. Hllditch) had asked if there had been
any further word about It.
The matter had been turned over
to the city solicitor because the council felt that it could not as a council act in the matter. The city solicitor had replied that it had not
been received from Montreal yet.
Aid. Newton said lie raised It because a certain paper had been anxious for him to move in the matter,
and he wanted to give that paper the
satisfaction of thinking that it was
doing something. If the matter was
in hand he would let it drop at that.
Aid. Hilditch pointed out that bad
the papers that were now so anxious
about wiping out this ward system
been in earnest they should have
taken action long ago. If ail had
been as lethargic as these papers in
the matter there would have been
little chance to have had anything
done, lhe council could not petition
itself, but had members of tbe council not taken the initiative months
ago and had the G. T. P.'s signature
secured there would have been no
chance whatever now to have se-
sured the wiping out of the ward
system. The newspapers should be
as interested as anyone in this matter and might have taken the initiative.

C. P. R. Steamer Princess Beatrice
Stranded on Way South North
of Vancouver Island.
It Is Expected She Will Re Easily
Hauled Off by the Salvor, Which
Is Now Alongside Her
(Special to The Journal)
Victoria, Oct. 17.—The salvage
steamer Salvor reached the Princess
Beatrice late last night. They will
commence unloading the cargoe today. It is believed she can be floated without very much damage.
The Princess Beatrice, during
heavy weather on her way soutli,
went ashore on Noble Island, not
far from Hardy Bay. The Princess
Royal, on her way nortli, went to
her assistance and took off her passengers, taking them to Alert Bay,
where the Princess Mary was to pick
them up and take them soutli.
When the Princess Royal, which
reached here late last night, left the
Beatrice, about twenty-four hours before reaching here, the weather was
fine and the stranded steamer was
not in any evident danger. It was
expected she would be dragged off
without much trouble and with little
damage.
The Beatrice carried a good cargo
of salmon, which may be damaged
as a result of the stranding on the
rocks and the taking In of water in
her hold.
On Saturday, Vernor W. Smith,
paymaster of Foley, Welci & Stewart, returned from a trip ;o Vancouver, where he saw Mrs. Smith c.rr
on her v*-it to New York. Yesterday Mr. Smith left by rail for tire
end of the G. T. P. tracks on his
way to New Hazelton, the headquarters of Foley, Welch & Stewart for
the next few years.
The city of Prince Rupert loses
in Mr. Smith a public spirited citizen. He was never wanting when
anything affecting the city's welfare
was proposed, and took an active
part in. the affairs of the place. Ever
since incorporation he has been an
alderman of the city, giving valuable
serves to the place. He is also a
valued member of the company by
whom he is employed, but in spite
of the fact that his time was quite
fully taken up with the business connected with that organization he
found time to give to public affairs
in Prince Rupert. He gave his time
ungrudgingly, also, and members of
the council with whom he served can
testify to the ripe judgment which
he brought to bear on matters of
public concern.
Mr. Smith was a member of the
licencing board and was also a member of the executive committee of
the Conservative Association, where
his counsel was ever valued.
He has quite large interests In
Prince Rupert and in the Skeena District. It will be the hope of all citizens that he may yet return to Prince
Rupert and take up his residence
here, where he will be heartily received.
In the removal of the Foley, Welch
& Stewart staff to a point up the
river, Prince Rupert loses in addition to Mi. Smith many other estimable citizens who have contributed to
the welfare of the city and whose
places in various spheres of usefulness will be bard to fill.
Most of them became very much
attached to Prince Rupert, and it is
the fond hope in the city that eventually they may in many cases make
their way back to this port to take
up their homes.
Troops Meet Between l'ckiir
and Hankow
NO SIGN OF PEACE
Diplomatic Efforts Made at Rome Have
Failed to Bring Results-
Italy's Demands.
(Special to The Journal)
San Francisco, Oct. 17.—Sixty-
five thousand revolutionists have
ordered to intercept the imperial column of twenty thousand, en route
from Pekin to Hankow. A bloody
battle Is expected. The revolutionists are determined to control the
situation and have planned their rising skillfully.
The revolutionists have declared a
republic, electing Li Yun Hung, lieutenant commander of the Imperial
new army, as president.
Dr. Sun Yat Sen, alleged to be the
real leader of the Chinese revolution
and prospective president of the new
onti-Manchu republic iu China, who
has a price of $100,000 on his head,
is on the Pacific Coast.
Although the revolutionists elected
beneral Li Yunn Hung president, Dr.
Sun will be recognized when he
reaches China. The work which he
has done there for so many years
past will cause him at once to be
recognized as the real leader of the
rebel movement.
Hall Opened
On Sunday morning the Presbyterian Hal1, on Fourth Avenue, was
opened for worship, with a large attendance present. The building is a
most comfortable one and the congregation is to be congratulated upon
having a place so well adapted for
for all church gatherings as this one
is. Rev. Mr. Kerr will hold services
there every Sunday morning. The
evening services will continue to be
held in the Empress Theatre.

Denies Slavery
Paris, Oct. 17.—While the Turkish
embassies deny the existence of salv-
ery in Tripoli, for the reason—as
tHey set forth—that the Ottaman
empire was a signatory to the anti-
slavery convention at Brussels, Ital-
ion officials declare that, nothwitli-
standing the denial, the fact remains
that Tripoli, up to two weeks ago,
was the only outlet of the great slave
market of Central Africa.
Slavery, they point out, had always in Africa its establish seat, as
it was allowed by the Koran and
approved by usage. Its worst feature in Tripoli was that for each
slave who arrived alive on the Mediterranean Coast, ten had died while
crossing the desert.
Italy, Great Britain and France,
wishing to stop the flow of slaves
through Tripoli, instructed their consuls to make strong representations
against the laxity of the Ottoman officials, but according to the official
documents, the traffic continued.
A Holy War
Reports from Tripoli say Arabs of
the interior are circulating a report
that the great Malidi of the Sahara,
having heard of tbe Italian invasion,
is gathering arms and men and trained horsemen, and has proclaimed a
holy war which is to be conduced
relentlessly until the infidels are
driven into the sea.
I'r-cireli Sohlecis ltidliy
According to the Cri de Paris, although the soldiers who had completed their two years' military service were mustered out as usual,
their clothing and equipment were
bundled up and left so as to be resumed at a minute's notice in case of
the mobilization against Germany
making it necessary. Writers have
criticized tiro government for so
weakening (lie army at such a time,
more than 200,000 men being let
out.

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL
Whaling in South Seas
There is at present a remarkable
revival of the whaling industry in
the Soutli Seas. Hitherto the Nor-
wegions have had the monoply of
whale catching in the Antarctice regions, but British-owned vessels will
soon be in evidence. It is known
that the profits are large, and capitalists are prepared to take the risk.
A Nortli Shields firm, Messrs.
Richard, Irvin & Sons, have just despatched to the Antarctic a fleet
newly gathered together. A large
four-masted sailing ship has been
equipped with an auxiliary Diesel oil
motor, and will act as "factory" ship.
Boilers and tanks are fitted on board
for blubber boiling and oil storage.
Two small craft, also with oil motor
propelling power, will do the actual
whale catching work. The Sound of
Jura, as the big sailed is called, has
every appliance for dealing with the
whale according to the most modern
ideas. The huge mammal when converted into a market able commodity
will represent, besides oil and whalebone, bonemeal, manure, cattle food,
solid meat, and spermaceti. It is, indeed, wonderful the amount of
merchantable goods to be obtained
from a whale. As the vessels of the
little fleet from Shields are fitted
with wireless telegraphy, they will
keep in touch with eac hother and
with the shore station.
Probably the most important station in the extreme s/iuth is that
owned by a firm with headquarters
In Leith, but whose ships fly the Nor-j
weigan flag—Messrs. Chr. Salvensen
& Co. A son of the founder of the
firm, and brother of the partners, is
Lord Salvensen, a Scottish judge.
This whaling station Is at the Falkland Islands, and has sent many cargoes of oil home. At this moment
a large tramp steamer is in Leith
Dock being fitted up as a floating
oil factory for Messrs. Salvensen's
station. And last year new Lelth-
built small whaling steamers were
sent out. This large steamer will
follow as soon as the boiling down
arrangements are completed and the
holds made ready for comprehensive
storage of oil and by-products.
Norwegian Activity
As showing the importance of this
station in the extreme South Atlantic
—in the same latitude as the Straits
of Magellan—it may be added that
not long ago a steamer took out from
Lcku a "lull cargo of 3,000 tons of
coal and 20,000 empty barrels. But
the Norwegians have no intention of
allowing the trade which they have
made peculiarly their own to languish in their hands. Two companies
were formed recently in Norway to
prosecute whaling in the Antarctic.
They have obtained the necessary
concessions from the New Zealand
government, and their headquarters
will be at Bluff, Southland. Only
the other day the British company
was registered, under the title of
the Southern Whaling and Sealing
Company, Limited, with a capital of
£60,000, the objects being to acquire
the business carried on at Capetown
under the name of the Southern Corporation Company, and at North
Shields as the Southern Whaling aud
Sealing Company.
Three large British steamers have
been bought within the past few
months by the Norwegian companies
for converting into floating factories.
One is the liner Carnarvonshire of
Liverpool, formerly the Gaekwar of
4,219 tons gross register. Another
is the fine Dundee steamer, the Den
of Airlie, of 3,507 tons gross register; and the third, the Whitby steamer German. In the necessary alterations being made to the Germania
special attention is paid to the equipment of appliances for converting the
carcase of the whale into manure,
for which there is a good demand.
But while discussing the fishing in
the South Seas it must not be forgotten that quite a busy whale catching Industry is carried on by the
Norwegians off the Scottish coast.
And It is indeed singular that it
should be left to foreigners with foreign ships, plant and labor to look
after this profit making trade. The
principal stations are in the Shetland Isles, and the whaling grounds
lie from 40 to 70 miles off shore—
very few whales are caught within
thirty miles of land. The Hebridean
grounds extend over a wider area,
reaching to that lonely Island of St.
Kildea, and over a hundred miles
northeast of the Flannan Islands. St.
Kildea Bay is used as a depot for
the curing station in Harris, and
whales are towed there and anchored
in the bay.
Tlie Value of Whnles
Last year 651 whales were caught
at the Scottish fishings. The value
of the products obtained at the boiling houses was £63,431. How the
division was made is interesting.
Taking the respective quantities,
they apportion as follows: Ooil,
2,601 tons; cattle food, 536 tons;
bone meal, 198 tons; solid meat, 46
tons; spemiacetti, 11 tons. Of course
tue whales usually caught off the
coast of Scotland are of small size
compared with the Antarctic levi-
thans, but two were killed measuring respectively 77 feet and 76 feet.
Only one representative of the sperm
tribe was included in the "bag" and
two of the humpback. Most of the
great fish were Finners or Sei.
There is a whaling station also in
Iceland, and that Danish province
sends a considerable quantity of oil
to Scotland. Usually three or four
small sailing craft are to be seen in
the Firth of Forth ports, particularly Grangemouth, which has direct
canal connection with Glasgow, and
these oil carriers hail from Shetland
and Iceland.
It was computed by the chairman
of the Scotch Oil Trades Association
that last year Glasgow imported
120,000 barrels of whale oil, and he
considered that the Antarctic and
Arctic catch for that year would
amount to half a million barrels. In
the near future this total promises
to be very greatly augmented—always providing that the whales do
not depart to unknown waters. But
as the. profits are large the risk is
cheerfully faced, and there will always be a ready market for the produce of the sea hunt. Whalebone varies in price according to the stock
in hand, but can always be kept in
storage for a rising market. It can
command usually £2,00 a ton, but a
year or two ago parcels changed
hands at £2,600. Oils likewise vary
according to the quality, the cheapest being the dark oils and the dearest the pale. Antarctic sperm is 36s
6d a hundred weight, and pale oil
ranges about 2 5s per hundred weight
to 27s. Whale oil is valuable for
soap making, and is in srequest by
curriers. Other by-products realize
goodly sums.

THE AGE OF STEEL
Remarkable Increase in the Production and Use of This Form
of Metal
If the nineteenth century is looked back to as the true Iron Age, the
present century will assuredly in
turn be designated the Age of Steel.
There was, of course, an Iron age
known to the ancients. It was the
period when the primitive people of
the earth first used iron in fashioning their implements of war, the
chase and household use. But the
invention of the locomotive and tlie
success of Stevenson's work on the
Stockton & Darlington Railroad in
England in 1825 gave the greatest
impetus to iron mining and smelting.
There were only eight-five small
smelting furnaces in Great Britain
in 1788, with a total capacity of
68,300 tons. But in 1865, or forty
years later, Stephenson demonstrate

ed the advantage of steam railroads,
British pig iron production increased
to nearly 5,000,000 tons per annum,
while the United States produced at
the rate of 1,300,000 per annum.
British furnaces smelted 10,216,745
tons of pig Iron in 1910, and the
American production exceeded 26,-
000,000. In 1865 German produced
882,546 tons, Belgium 500,000 tons,
Austria 300,000, Sweden 240,000 and
Russia 275,000 tons. The world's
production of pig iron in 1865
amounted to 9,099,666 tons. The
world's production last year was
about 65,000,000 tons.
The next important event favoring the development of the world's
iron resources, following Stephenson's great work was the patenting
by Bessemer of a new method of de-
carburizing and de-siliconizlng pig
iron by forcing streams of air under
high pressure through the molten
metal in a pear-shaped converter,
and by this means converting the
iron into steel. The world's production of steel in 1856, when Besse-
mer's first patent was granted in
England, was under 200,000 tons per
annum. In 1865 it was 419,380
tons, in 1871 it amounted to 1,000,-
000 tons, and to 6,010,684 tons last
year. Other large steel producers In
1910 were France 3,202,488 tons,
German 13,482,199 tons and the United States 26,094,919 tons.

MAYORALTY CANDIDATE
Alderman Newton announces iris
candidature for tire office of mayor
at the next municipal election. He
announces himself on the ground
that he is lo oppose "ring rule,"
which is but a way ot announcing
that lrc regards himself as the only
honest man in the public life of the
city.
Alderman Newton takes objection
to the expressed desire on the part
of the Journal that a mayor should
be elected who would work in harmony with a representative council.
We still contend that that is what
is required, but we do not wonder
that Alderman Newton objects to it
for judging by his record there is
not a council that could be selected
that would work in harmony with
him.
Alderman Newton says that such a
declaration as the Journal makes is
but a declaration that what is wanted
is a mayor who will truckle to the
ring influence, so that the anticipated large expenditures can be
spent in the dark. It means no such
a thing and no one who does not
look upon all his fellow men as
scoundrels could interpret the words
in the sense he does. All is yellow
to the jaundiced eye, but no rational
citizen will believe for a moment
that the electorate of Prince Rupert
will deliberately select eight scoundrels to represent them in the council and then require to make choice
at the same time of one self-constituted tribune who is so pure that
he alone can safely be entrusted to
protect the rights of the citizens.
We still contend that what the city
needs next year, as in the past,
is a representative mayor and
council that will fortget their own
petty troubles and work in conjunction for the advancement of the city.
A mayor is needed who is able to
take the initiative in movements for
the best interests of the place.
No place can afford to elect a man
who will not work with a representative council. Prince Rupert, which
is in the very beginning of its history, of all places, cannot afford to
have as its chief magistrate one of
that sort.
A GRAIN PORT
The announcement that the Panama Canal is to be completed in
1913 instead of 1915 should be welcome news to Prince Rupert. The
announcement was contained in a
statement made by President Taft at
Belllngham a tew days ago. It seems
probable that the canal is to be completed just about the same time the
G. T. P. is a through line to the
Pacific.
The impression prevails among
those who leave studied transportation matters that the cutting tlrrough
of the canal will have a most wonderful effect upon the shipping of the
ports of Britisii Columbia provided
trade is ollowed to be unduly directed toward United States Pacific
ports.
Willi ihe completion of a short
cut between the Pacific and th.B Atlantic, there will be a revolution In
trade routes. A great impetus will
be given to Pacific Coast shipping
and to tlie development of British
Columbia ports; there will be a draw-
lug of the grain of the prairies to
Prince Rupert, Vancouver and New
Westminster, and a closer commercial relationship with the markets of
the Mother Country consequent upon
the shortening by many thousands of
mill's of the water route between
British Columbia and the icon of
the Empire.
Prince Rupert witli the many advantages which it is lo possess In
the handling of this trad-3 should
receive greater benefits than any of
the other ports. It has the easiest
route for heavy traffic and theG.T.P.
will be in a position lo provide the
very best of dockage facilities here.
P. A. O'Farrell, the western newspaper writer, who has given much
study to west and British Columbia
development, predicts that before
many decades a billion bushels ot
wheat will be raised in the northwest annually, hair of wliich will
be exported; the greater part will
go through Britisii Columbia ports
to Europe Africa and the Orient.
These ports are only 600 miles from
the wheat tields or Alberta, be notes,
while Montreal is over 2,000 miles.
The Pacific ports are open all the
year round and time and low grades
will be factors in drawing the grain
trade of the prairies westward.
It is evident that from the days
when tlie G. T. P. service to and from
here to the east begins that Prince
Rupert will become one or the great
grain ports of the world. The president of the company lias this In view,
as in a recent interview in Montreal
he commented on the great future for
the port of Prince Rupert in shipping grain via the Panama Canal
route to Europe. He indicated that
his railway company anticipated
shipping 100 000,000 bushels of
wheat annual,y from this Britisii Columbia port, and at the same cost
and almost in tlie same time as it
lakes to carry It by way of the Great
Lakes and the Atlantic ports.
Tlr is port is one of the main doorways of the Pacific. With the populating of the great interior of tlie
Dominion, the prairie sections' trade
will develop this way and transportation and manufacturing will be built
up In Prince Rupert.
To anyone who studies the situation as it exists there is no marvel
in the fact that values in Prince Rupert real estate keep firm or even
show an upward tendency. Within
tlie next few years there will be such
advances In real estate values here
that those who failed to take advantage of the situation as it now
exists will wonder at their shortsightedness.

EXTORTING MONEY
VICTORIA — Frederick Bullock,
the informer in the navy case, was
sentenced to six months' irr:.:>ri"eminent by Judge Lampman in the
country court when found guilty of
the charge of attempting to extort
money from C. J. V. Spratt by threatening to bring criminal prosecution.
Mr. Pooley, K. C, his counsel, gave
notice that he intended to make an
appeal to the supreme court.
LARGE DEAL
NEW WESTMINSTER—A real
estate deal involving a sum not much
short of a million, paid for a quarter section near Port Mann, is reported from Vancouver. The acreage in question is that locally known
as the old Jock Smith ranch, and
corners on Port Mann townsite, its
legal description being quarter Section 22, Block 5, North Range 2
West. Some little time ago this
property was bought by a Vancouver syndicate at the price of $700
per acre, and the syndicate has now
sold it for just double that figure,
the total price being $224,000.
Messrs. .Marriott & Fellows of Vancouver were agents in the sale.
NELSON SCHOOLS
NELSON—An amicable settlement
of the long pending difficulties between the city council of Nelson and
the school board of that city, which
difficulties (over the old subject of
contentions between councils and
school boards—the financial demands of the latter) produced a long-
lasting deadlock which even appeal
to the courts of law i'ailed to break,
has been arrived at. As the situation approached a crisis in the threatened closing of the schools, owing to
the exhaustion of civic appropriations, tlie contending parties got together and upon the board cutting
iils appropriation $500 or thereabouts, a truce was reached, follow-
ed by the fortunate termination of
hostilities.
SURVEYING HOARD
VICTORIA—Letters just received
fr c. Hoard, C.E., of this city,
state that good progress Is being
made by ills party of explorers retained by Sir Donald Mann and associates to make an exhaustive examination of the country and resources
between the Bear* River Valley
I above Stewart) and tlie Peace River, in connection with the possible
extension of the Canadian Northeastern Railway, formerly known as the
Portland Canal Shori Line. Mr.
Hoard's party will be In the Held as
long as the weather permits and will
Intercept another party working west
rrom the Rocky Mountains, and
which latterly has made its base at
Fort Connolly, approximately one
hundred and fifty miles inland from
Stewart. The data secured will be
used as the basis of a report to
be presented to Premier McBride and
his colleagues in advance of the next
session of the legislature, in connection with an application by Sir Donald Mann and his colleagues for provincial assistance for the extended
road as a colonization factor, ihe aid
sought rrom tlie provincial government will be in the nature or a bond
guarantee.
SPORTS
Tlie deciding series ot matches Tor
the championship of the world in the
baseball' field is now being played
between the New York Giants and
the Philadelphia Athletics. The first
game on Saturday resulted in a victory for the Giants by a score of
2 to 1. The second score was a reversal by 3 to 1.
The Philadelphia Americans and
New York Nationals have entered
upon the series of seven matches to
decide the baseball supremacy of the
world. At present indications point
to the greatest diamond battles—
both from the point of attendance
and competition—on record. Record
breaking turnouts can be looked forward to in the contents, which will
alternate between New York and
Philadelphia.
Baseball fans the country over are
prognosticating the outcome of the
great series. Working on the time-
proven theory that baseball cannot
be "doped," a winner cannot be picked with any great degree of confidence, but the records of the two
teams in their respective fights give
some lines on their relative abilities.
The Athletics loom up strong at
bat, while the Giants' greatest
strength lies in their base-stealing
proclivities, writes P. A. Turner in
the San Francisco Chronicle. Wise
Connie Mack sums up the situation,
however, in the statement that the
fight will be between the pitchers
and not between base runners. A
player has to face the pitcher to get
on the bases, and if the opposition
hurlsmen allow but few hits there
will be but few opportunities offered
on the bases.
In the pitching department the
Giants appear to have the edge on
the Athletics. Mathewson and his
southpaw teammate, Marquard, are
rated higher than Bender and
Coombs, but the Athletics even up
that score on their superior hitting
ability.
Behind the plate, which has an important bearing on the defensive of
both teams, Meyers, the Indian, and
Ira Thomas will match wits. The
Athletic catchers were supposed to
be weak when the big battle was
started last fall, but when it was all
over Thomas had carried away the
hero wreaths by his wonderful back-
stopping behind the log. Thomas is
a quick thinker, with a wonderful
arm, and Meyers has developed to
such a degree this season that Mc-
Graw claims he is the greatest catcher in the country today. In Lapp
and Livingston, Connie Mack has a
couple of worthy sub-catchers, and
...cGraw has a useful youngster in
Wilson.
Around first base Stuffy Mclnnes,
the sensational youngster who replaced George Davis, will be pitted
against Fred Merkle, the young man
who has had a hard time living down
tne bonehead play be pulled in the
decisive game against the Chicago
Cubs several seasons ago, when he
failed to touch second and lost the
Giants a pennant. Both Mclnnes
and Merkle are young players, who
cover a world of ground, and it is
about a toss-up in choice, with Merkle being favored.
At the second base Eddie Collins
outshines Larry Doyle, the captain
of the Giants. Doyle is a slashing,
aggressive player, a reckless base-
runner who has led the Giants in
their whirlwind attacks all season.
Compared to the brilliant Collins,
both at bat, and in the field, Doyle
hardly figures.
In tbe short field McGraw will
rely on a youngster, Fletcher, against
Baker. Fletcher has done wonders
tor a young fellow, but be is up
against one of the greatest shortstops the game has ever seen, according to reports of the critics.
At third base the slugging Balier
is found against Herzog, but as an
all-round man at the difficult corner the baseball writers of the east
give tlie palm to Herzog.
It Is hard to select the best out-
rie-lrl or lire two. The Athletics and
Giants both have good ground cov-
erers with plenty o! speed, but Old-
ring, Lord and Mhurphy show up
as the best hitters. Snodgrass, Murray and Devore are raster on the
bases, and the advantage seems to
be evened up.
Who do you think will win—the
team with the best pitchers and base
runners, or the team with the best
hitters and fields? Stop to consider, too, the two managers—Mugsy
McGraw of the Giants, and Connie
Mack of the Athletics. One is the
student, studying out plays, while
the other—McGraw—is the aggressive, fighting leader out on the lines
battling for advantage. Think it over.
o
On the Scotch Express
A man entered a sleep carriage at
London.
"Look here, guard," said lie, "I
want to get out at Rugby. Now,
mind you, call me. I may be a bit
sleepy, but don't you mind what I
say or do. If I dou't feel inclined
just get hold of me and throw me
out, and here's half-a-crown for you.
"All right, sir," said the guard.
"Thank you."
The train steamed into Edinburgh
about 6 o'clock in the morning.
A man emerged from the berth and
alighted on the platform.
Guard where are we?" asked the
man.
"Edinburgh, sir."
"Edinbugh!" shrieked the man, in
a towering passion. Ithought I told
you to call me at Rugby?"
At this tlie guard looked up inquiringly. "Are you the gentleman that
gave me the half-crown?"
"Yes, I am," answered the man
rircely.
The guard was sorely puzzled.
"Now, I wonder who the gentleman
was I threw out of the train at Rugby?" were the only words he could
utter.
A young recruit was set on sentry-
go, and was, of course, new to the
business. A good natuved comrade
brought him a sandwich, and the
recruit was about to consume iti
when the major appeared. As the
officer was in mufti, the sentry did
not recognize him, and did not salute.
The major took in the situation and
asked: "What's that?" "A sandwich," replied the recruit. "Have a
bit?" "Do you know who I am?"
asked the major. "Don't know you
from Adam; perhaps you're the major's coachy?" "No, I am not." "His
groom, perhaps?" "No. Try again."
"Perhaps the old chap himself."
"Right this time," said the major.
"Oh, goodness!" exclaimed the frightened sentry. "Hold this sandwich
while I present arms!"

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL
MASSET'S PROGRESS
Queen Charlotte Island Points is Making
Steady Progress as a Producing Centre.
Items of News From the Northern
Centre of Graham
island
(Special Correspondence)
Masset, Oct. 14.—Inspector A. M.
Tyson, accompanied by Dominion
Officer Phillipson, visited the Queen
Charlotte Indian agency, wliich is a
portion of Mr. Tyson's inspectorate,
and held a consultation with the Indians. Affairs connected with the
agency were taken up and dealt
with and a visit was paid to the reserves on the supper end of Masset
Inlet. Accompanied by Indian Agent
Thomas Oeasy, the Inspector will
visit Skidegate reserve and all of
the Hydah locations in the agency.
Coal Operations
The work of placing machinery at
one end of the coal mines, on the
Yakoun River, which has been in
progress for some months past, has
been accomplished. Another party
is engaged in constructing a road,
from tide water to the mines.
Form Association
An association, known as The Progressive Conservative Association .of
Queen Charlotte Islands, has been organized. Temporary officers have
been elected and a platform of the
association formulated. The association was organized in Masset.
Want a Wharf
A petition Is in corculation at Mas-
set requesting the Dominion government to constructa a wharf on the
inlet at the foot of Main Street. A
new wharf is urgently needed in
that locality to replace the structure
which was constructed some years
ago by private parties and which is
falling to pieces.
Violated Act
Three Indians were fined recently
for indulging in intoxicants on the
Masset reserve.
In the Hospital
Captain Daniel Stanley, who met
with an accident, some years ago,
will undergo an operation at the
' Pr'ilice Rupert General Hospital.
"Captain Dan" is one of the most
popular of the Masset band, and his
return to health is anxiously looked
for by those who have always found
him working for the interests of
-.asset and his fellow tribesmen.
Lnimeli Building
A number of gasoline launches
will be constructed at Masset during
the approaching winter. Henry Edenshaw will build a freight and passenger boat. Andrew Brown is making a large schooner, in which he
will install a powerful gasoline engine; Harry Weah is contemplating
constructing a vessel, and Robert
Bennett has plans under way for a
launch.
Opposed to Chinese
A worshipper of Confucius arrived
arrived on the .Masset Indian reserve
on the last steamer, intending to
open a restaurant and bake shop.
When the Trespas Act was read to
him the Chinaman decided to locate
in some warmer climate. He moved
moved to New Masset, and the
"chilly" reception accorded him
there accelerated bis desire to seek
pastures new.
Game Needed
Two hotels, and several private
houses, were the recipients recently
of a goodly supply of venison. It
was obtained in a round-about manner; but wns relished nevertheless.
The deer were shot on Porcher Island ; the carcasses found In ready
sale In Prince Rupert, and were shipper to Graham Island by W. Shrub-
sail. In a few years tbe residents
of Queen Charlotte Islands will be
enjoying the delicacies of the season
from the herd of deer now roaming
over the land.. A few pheasants,
mountain sheep and goats would be
a welcome addition to the wild game
of the islands.
Signs of Progress
James Martin of Masset is calling
for tenders for the construction of a
"pontoon bridge" across Delkatla
Bay. Residences are springing up
on both sides of the waterway and a
party of surveyors are at work on
the Francis property, which will be
sold in town lots. Mr. Francis disposed of his property for a large sum
and is now paying a visit to his old
home in the east.
Delivered Cattle
"Mexican Tom" has been sojourning at the home of F. C. Tingley,
after driving to Kumdis Inlet a band
of cattle for the residents there. The
two oldest settlers are spending the
long evenings discussing the ramifications of "reciprocity."
Want Wireless
Wireless communication is urgently needed on the north end of Graham Island. The steamer service
will be bi-monthly, after the commencement of November, and the
residents of Masset Inlet will be isolated, with the exception of one
steamer, arriving twice in each
month.

EXAMINER TIMRER
Victoria Representative of Capital
Has Been Inspecting the Wooded
Area of Skeena Valley
J. H. Reynolds of Victoria, after
spending the past two weeks In this
part of the country examining into
the timber of the Skeena Valley, relumed south yesterday. He will report to his associates on what he
has seen and upon his report may
depend the erection of a pulp mill in
this vicinity.
Mr. Reynolds has been associated
with John Arbuthnot and J. M. Savage of Victoria In various enterprises, among them being the South
Wellington coal mines.
He returned on Sunday from a trip
to the end of the steel. He inspected the timber along the route and
gained a very complete knowledge of
the resources along this particular
line.
Mr. Reynolds thinks that the Kitsumkalum and Lakelse Valleys will
give good accounts of themselves
within a short time as producers of
farm products. The land appealed
to him on account of its productiveness and he looks forward to a good
showing.
o
ON GRANBY BOARD
A. C. Flumerfclt Has Aguin Taken
Position With Smelter and
Mining Company
A. C. Flumerfelt of Victoria has
been elected a member of the board
of directors of the Granby Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company
of Grand Forks and Phoenix. He
will once more be in touch with its
affairs, in which he formerly took a
prominent part.
For several years he filled the important position of assistant to the
president, an office then filled by
the late S. H. C. Miner of Granby,
Que., and resided at Grand Forks.
When Mr. Miner withdrew from office, Mr. Flumerfelt also resigned.
Although Mr. Miner was credited
with having sold most of his stock
in the big company it developed after
his death that be was the second
largest shareholder. Mr. Flumerfelt
is the executor of the estate of the
deceased millionaire.
He goes on the board at the urgent
request of Jay P. Graves of Spokane,
president, who desired his counsel
and co-operation owing to the intention of the Granby company to extend its field of operations to Northern British Columbia. Mr. Flumerfelt is well qualified for the position. He is also a director of the
Eastern Townships rJank, as well as
many other large corporations and
industrial companies.
o
Telephone ut Stewart
Excellent progress has been made
during the fine weather of the past
week in stringing the wires for the
telephone service and it will be but
a short time before the system is in
operation, says the Portland Canal
Miner. The switchboard, cable and
instruments have arrived, and as
soon as the outside work is finished
tne same will be installed in tlie
office of the Stewart Drug Co. W. R.
Smith, the company's engineer, announces that there will be forty
phones at the start and connections
will be made by long distance, as far
up the valley as the Red Cliff mine.

ARE REORGANIZING
Western Steel Corporation May
Eliminate James A. Moore
Directors of the Western Steel
Corporation, against which several
small suits and a petition asking tire
appointment of a receiver are pending in the superior court, held a
conference at Seattle and decided to
renew their efforts to bring about a
reorganization of the company. Word
has been received from a trust company in New York that if a satisfactory reorganization is effected it will
furnish financial support to the steel
corporation. It is understood that
the plan of reorganization contemplates the elimination from control
of James A. .Moore, promoter and
president of the corporation. Further
conferences will be held by the directors.

WINTER SERVICE
At the end of this month it is
expected the G. j. P. Steamship Company will begin its winter service
between this port and the soutli. One
of the big coast liners will be laid
off to undergo its annual overhaul.
The other vessel will stay on the
run, giving a weekly service.
It has not yet been decided which
one of the big coasters will be the
first to lie up. Immediately one Is
withdrawn work will commence
aboard the vessel in equipping her
with oil burners. Captain Nicholson has just returned to Vancouver
from a trip to Snn Francisco, wliere
he arranged for the purchasing of oil
to supply the two Prince steamers.
Oil tanks are to be erected In Vancouver and the vessels will lake on
their fuel there while the freight
is being loaded and unloaded. In

the past the vessels have always put
into Nanaimo on their southbound
trips and spent four or five hours
filling their bunkers. This delay
will be eliminated with the oil fuel
and the vessels will make faster time.
When one of the steamers has been
equipped with the burners and undergone her annual overhaul, she will
relieve the other vessel on the run,
which will then have the oil apparatus installed. With this method of
generating steamer it is expected that
the Prince steamers will increase
their speed a little, making slightly
over nineteen knots. Minor alterations are to be made to the big
steamers and they will be placed in
the best possible shape for the spring
season next year.
It does not seem to have been decided yet as to whether the smaller
ships of the fleet will be equipped
with oil burners. It is believed, however, that the Prince Albert, operating in the service to Northern British Columbia ports, will in the near
future use oil as fuel instead of coal.
WHALING IN NORTH
With a hardy crew of whalers who
have just completed a very profitable
season along the Southeastern and
Southwestern Alaska coasts, the
steam whaling vessel Fearless of the
Tyee Whaling Company has arrived
in Seattle.
The season is practically over and
one by one the vessels are being laid
up for the winter. The Tyee and
Resolute have arrived from the north
and the barge Diamondhead, which
has been with the fleet, will soon
be sent to San Francisco.
Over 400 whales were captured
during the season and their carcasses
taken to Tyee, Alsaka, where the
bone and the oil is extracted and the
rest of the carcasses converted into
fertilizer.
The biggest whale of the season
was captured by the crew of the
Fearless and measured eighty-six
feet in length. She gave the crew a
fierce battle before being landed.
Three species of whale were captured
by the Tyee company, the sulphur-
bottom, the humpback and the finback.
EGERIA A TRAINING SHIP
Tlie Egeria is going to Vancouver
The Navy League was the highest
dders at the auction at $6,800 and
as soon as arrangements can be
made there will be stationed in Bur-
rard Inlet the largest training ship

says the News-Advertiser on the subject of the sale, which was announced in the Journal at the time of
the sale. The News-Advertiser continues: In addition to the vessel itself the Navy League has purchased
the two whalers and Hie steam cutter; all of the suits rrl' sails (costing
$300) compass, instruments and a
ouplo or old Gardner machine gnus.
Tlie vessel and equipment were snid
In S. Goldberg, who acted em behalf
of the Navy League branch, Besides
the representative of the league a
number of ship breakers weir, present at tho auction from this city and
Seattle so that bidding was brisk for

subscribe to a fund for the purchase
of tire vessel Mr. Kay has devoted a
great deal of his time on behalf of
the Navy League. Over $.1,000 has
been obtained by public subscription
when tire admiralty solicited tenders
for the vessel, and something less
than this amount was tendered by
the local branch. When the admir-
ilty decided not to sell by lender but
rather by auction, Secretary Kay, secured the postponement of the sale
till arrangements could be made for
bidding by the local branch. His
efforts were furthered last month by
a $.1,000 subscription from Lord
Strathcona, who Indicated his entire
approval of the object in view, ii
was this last subscription which enabled the league |o purchase the
Egeria.
The Egeria Is the only vessel remaining of a class of sixteen ships
which were once the pride of the
llrllislr navy. She enjoys the distinction nf being the only full rigged
British warship afloat, From l*:m

RUSHING THE WORK
C. T. P. is Anxious to Complete the
Line Without Loss of
Time.
Foley, Welch & Stewart Will Soon
Award tire Sub-Contracts in
Uncompleted Gap
It looks as though the G. T. P.
was soiiiK to spare no pains to have
the line completed at tire very earliest date.
.1. W. Stewart, managing director
of Foley, Welelr & Stewart, the contracting firm, and B. B, Kelliher,
chief engineer ol' the railway, arc
now making a trip from Yellowhead
Pass to Prince Rupert. They arc
looking over tlie uncompleted gaps
between Tete Jaune Cache and Aldermere ior the purpose ot arranging
for BUb-contracts. It is likely that
sub-contracts covering the uncompleted gap of 4 in miles will be
awarded shortly after Air. Stewart
reaches the Coast.
Last week the adjourned annual
meeting or the shareholders of the
G. T. P. was held in Montreal, with
Charles Al. Hays, president, in the
chair.
The president stated that during
the year track laying on the main
line ot the western division had been
extended trom Wolf Creek to Fitzhugh, west of the Athabasca River
in the Rocky Mountains, which will
be the divisional point for that section, and that construction work is
under full headway, with night and
day forces, to Tete Jaune Cache, on
the Fraser River, beyond the Yellowhead Pass, on the western slope of
the Rocky Mountains. It is expected
that track laying will reach this
point, which is 1,094 miles west of
Winnipeg, before the close of the
year.
"For the purpose of establishing
suitable hotel accommodation
throughout the country which will
be traversed by your company's
lines," continued the president, "it
is proposed to construct a chain of
first class modern hotels, and with
this object in view a contract has
been let for the construction of a
large hotel in Winnipeg at a cost
of $1,300,000. Good progress has
been made on construction work on
the Ontario division, and the present condition of that work shows a
total of 1.22345 miles of main line
track and 136.50 miles of sidetrack
laid, and the remaining portions of
the section are all under contract.
With the construction, therefore, at
approximately 5,155 miles, undertaken in tlie first instance, there has
been laid at the present time practically 3,300 miles oi main line
track."
Hugh A. A'lan, who was a member ot the first board of directors,
having taken up his residence abroad,
is unable to continue as an active
member of the board. The names of
the following directors are proposed
for re-election: Alfred W. Smithers,
Sir Henry Mather Jackson George
Van Chauvln, Col. Frederick Fire-
brace, Charles AI. Hays, E. J. Chamberlin, W. Wainwrlght, E. H. Fitzhugh, W. II. Biggar, E. B. Greenshields, Hon. R. Dandurand, Hon.

F. V. CLARKE'S REHAMOR
criminals—a man who can take advantage of his friend to forge his
name."
Mr. Justice .Murphy charged
strongly for the accused. He said
that the evidence showed that ui) to
the time ot the trouble at any rate
the prisoner was a man ot very high
character and had occupied what
were in bis station of life prominent
positions. It was not for him to
declare whal lie thought of Clarkes'
bearing in the box, but be must draw
attention of the jury to the tact
that he had answered unswervingly
the questions of both counsel.
Then there was another point that
must be considered, and that was
that alter Clarke was aware that he
was being shadowed by detectives he
had made no attempt to get away,
but had remained in Prince Rupert
doing his daily work as usual, and
had allowed the law to take its
course.
The jury, armed with high power
glasses to compare the handwriting
exhibited, were out about twenty
minutes.

LOST IN A GALE
Garden ol Prince Ruperl—Future oil
Supply—Fisheries Unequalled—
Timber Unexcelled
Launch Capsized off Graham Island With
James Carter and Joe Tasarat
on Board.
Former Loses His Life—Latter Managed to Reach Shore—Were
Thrown Into the Water
As a result oi the terrific storm
which raged along the coast last
week James Carter, a hair-breed who
made his headquarters at Alasset,
lost his lite by drowning. Particulars were received by the local wireless station trom Dead Tree Point
on Saturday atternoon. Carter was
off the east coast of Graham Island
in the vicinity of Tel-el River when
the launch in which he and a companion, Joe Tasarat, were turned
over. Tasarat drifted ashore but
Carter was drowned. He was about
26 years of age and formerly lived
at Victoria.
The launch was owned by Ed Stevens of Skidegate. Carter was accustomed to handling it. On Alonday
he started out with Joe Tasarat, a
well known French settler at Lawn
Hill, and Frank Settler. The latter
was landed at Lawn Hill, after
which a gale sprang up. Carter and
Lasarat then made in the direction
of Tel-el River. The tide was out
when they reached there, however
and it was impossible to make a
landing.
Hoping to return to Skidegate, a
start was made, but the gear broke
and it became necessary to cast anchor and await a change In the
weather. At Wednesday noon, however, the mooring parted and the
boat, left at the mercy of the waves,
turned turtle.
Lasarat reached shore safely, but
Carter was drowned.
He Impressed the Court with His
Straightforwardness and Candor
Frederick V. Clarke, who was honorably acquitted by the assize jury in
Vancouver of the charge of forgery
in connection with a post olfice money order sent to C. S. Wormwald
rrom Newcastle-on-Tyne, has returned to the city. The News-Advertiser says'.
Clarke answered both the questions ot his counsel, Mr. s. s. Taylor, K. C, and or the crown prosecutor with apparent candor and truthfulness, and his demeanor In the
box was the subject of favorable
comment from the bench. The
crown put in the evidence of two
experts earlier in tlie day In an endeavor to prove that the handwriting
of the accused was the same as that
of the man who forged the signature
to Hie money order receipts. Mr.
Taylor hotly cross-examined these
witnesses and showed how easy It
was to detect similarities in the writing of any two individuals.
Mr. Taylor made an earnest plea
on behalf of Clarke, referring to his
fine character as testified to even by
the witnesses for the crown. He had
been associated prominently with
well known societies in Prince Rupert, and had always conducted himself with credit.
"If you think this man is guilty,
you will have to believe him 'one ot
the lowest and meanest of human
PURCHASING AGENT
Duties of City Official Come Up lor
Discussion at Council
Meeting
Aid. Newton, at iast night's council meeting, wanted information relative to the way in which the orders
were placed ior goods wanted by the
ditforent departments. He had
thought they were to be placed by
the purchasing agent, the city clerk,
but that official had informed them
that he did not place them all. He
wanted to know who did place these
orders.
Aid. Clayton marvelled at the sud
den awakening of Aid. Newton. Al
though Aid. Newton had been a mem
leer of me finance committee for
about nine months he for some reason bad just awakened to the fact
that the city hall purchases were not
being made as he thought they were
II would appear that Aid. Newton
sought to make some capital out or
this for some particular purpose.
Continuing, Aid. Clayton explained
that he bad held up certain orders
because be could nont "O. K." them
In view of the ract that he did not
find who authorized them. He did
not doubt but they were correct but
til he found out who placed the order
he could not vouch for them.
Atter considerable discussion, Aid.
Hilditch explained that in his department all the accounts were
vouched for by the engineer and by
himseir as chairman and were all
criticised by the purchasing agent to
see that the prices were all right and
that they were properly ordered.

QUEEN CHARLOTTES
Resident's Opinion of the Resources of
This Part of the Province Which
is Tributary to City,
"It the opinion of a man who has
travelled over British Columbia,
rrom the last known island in the
north to Kootenay, is ot any benefit
to prospective speculators and settlers, I would say that the Queen
Charlotte group of islands offer opportunities that cannot be found in
any other part of North America."
Those words were expressed by Indian Agent Thomas Deasy, who has
resided in this province for over fifty
years, and is acquainted with the resources as few other men can acknowledge.
"I have nothing to sell there, just
now," stated the agent, "because any
little interest \ have is In future development work. When I found something that would be of benefit, it
was not taken to the large, outside
cities; but the people who had the
stamina to do what I have done,
'pioneer work," were asked to cooperate in any advantages that may
accrue from the potentialities of the
country. The pity of it was that
all of the people who first considered
it wise to endeavor to make a home
in this new country could not enjoy
a share in the prospective benefits to
be derived. There are many opportunities tor them, even now; but
the opening ot a transcontiujntal
railway, and the intlux or strangers,
will lessen the chances that are now
at hand. One does need to talK like
a millionaire to interest people in a
country that has possibilities com-
partively unknown. He may work
for wages, and still have no other
object in advertising than to benefit
his fellow man, as well as himself."
"You ask about Queen Charlotte
Islands; well, I have been over a
great portion of the largest island
of the group, and must say that there
will be many surprises for those who
now are seeking investments and
homes. You must have a recreation
ground and a garden for your future
large city. It lies within eighty
miles of your door. Inlets and rivers; sandy beaches and wild flowers; boating and fishing; camping
grounds and wild rruit. For example: Do you know of any other place
where a person can purchase a half-
gallon of large, luscious, wild strawberries for fifty cents? Then the
climate is altogether different from
that of other sections of the province. We have little snow, or cold
weather. Cattle feed outside all the
year round and the summer months
are warm and the days so long that
there are but five hours or darkness.
It is not yet a farming or a dairy
country—the islands must be cleared
before the farmer can do a great
deal; but for 'garden truck,' there is
no better place anywhere. Small
truits, also, flourish. Even in the
sand, along the beaches, strawberries
are found in abundance. For camping, and summer outings, the inlets
and streams are ideal. We have no
wild animals or snakes, and a camp
can be made almost anywhere. The
ducks and geese are plentiful ror the
sportsman, and the trout fishing is
or the best."
"About the oil deposits? Well, I
do not desire to be one who starts a
'boom,' or any other means ot causing a fiitiire loss to the people who
speculate. I have made two visits
to the west coast ot Graham Island,
and went along the shores, and Inland. In my opinion, there Is oil,
ol the best quality, on the west coast
or Graham Island. Have I seen It?
Yes, and no. In the first place, the
best or oil is thousands or foet below the surface, and It requires a
drilling plant to reach It. 1 have
seen one in operation, at Tiahn Point.
The owners have expended over
$15,000 In the purchase ol a plant
and installing same. They commenced In the 'shale,' which covers
an oil bed; aiter working through
that they are now in limestone capping, which may be trom one to two
thousand feet in thickness. I have
seen the samples, taken from their
borings, and they nave oil; hut it is
quantity they want, and they must
go down for it. Along the shores
1 have found tar and asphaltum,
sticking out of the crevices in the
rocks and everything that indicates
tbe presence of vast oil beds. I am
not an expert; but one went with
me who is now interested In the Utah
oil fields. He was amazed at the
showings. All of the experts who
visited the west coast state that it
is an oil field. What more can a
person say than that, until those who
are now operating fail, or succeed
in reaching oil? Samples, sent by
us to the state nilnerologist of California, have been examined and pronounced the best of indications. You
will understand, it' oil seeped from
the ground, it would be of little value
running into the sea. If the oil Is
'in place' there will be vast lakes
of It, or sounds impregnated with It
that will repay all interested a million times over. I have seen the
plant, the well, the samples, and
have gone over the 'prospects' with
those who have their all in the field
—men who understand, better than
I ever will, the undertaking in which
they have expended time and money.
I do not ask any man to take my
work for anything. Those who know
me understand that I am not booming 'wildcats,' and would not ask any
man to to invest for any personal
benefit if I knew that they would
lose. The ground is there, for people to see for themselves, as I did,
and the future development is for
those who have faith In a proposition
of the kind—like those who are now
developing.
"When one talks of fish, it would
take a Philadelphia lawyer to tell
you oi the fisheries orr the Queen
Charlotte Islands. We have seen the
whaling steamers cruising, and the
'shooting' ot the mamniels; on the
same day the Indians caught in the
adjacent water an average of ten
spring salmon each, and the salmon
weighed sixty pounds; close by were
thousands of sea-gulls, feating on
the herring; a few miles distant the
halibut banks are located, where the
supply is unlimited. Strange to relate, there is not one fish curing establishment on the north side of
Graham Island.

Thee "Stay Satisfactory "fi&nge
Good, Sound Reasons for
MONARCH Economy
Monarch Ranges are built so that they can
never have "air leaks"—
For around every opening into the body there
is a Alalleable Iron frame to which the
steel is riveted.
No putty is needed in such joints. They are
air tight when new and stay air tight.
If these other ranges were built in this way
they might be economical too.
Investigate this matter of rivet construction
versus stove bolts and stove putty. It's
Important to every one using or buying
a range.
