INTERVIEWED M. Donaldson On Return to Winnipeg Tells of the Great Country That Is Being Opened Up In Interior to Serve the G.T.P, Terminus Morley Donaldson, vice-president and general manager of the Grand Trunk Pacific, after returning from a complete inspection of the line from Winnipeg to Prince Rupert, announces that the company hopes to operate a through service from Winnipeg to the Pacific terminus about the middle of September, says a despatch from Winnipeg, following an interview with the vice-president. A regular service through to Prince George, which Is bound to be the large city between cdinonton and Prince Rupert, will be placed in operation inside of 20 days. The bridge across the Fraser River at this point will be completed in about 12 days, while ballasting operations •re being rushed on the line between McBride and Prince George. Five steam shovels and large gangs of men are working both east and west of Prince George, and every effort is being made to have tbe tine in shape as soon as possible. Mr. Donaldson stated that at the present time there remains about 200 miles of track to be ballasted, but with the large and up-to-date equipment being used and with favorable weather conditions this will be lo such shape as to permit the putting on of a through service by September. "There remains," said Mr. Donaldson, "a large omount of work to be finished, as a large portion of the track was laid during the winter months with the result that once the frost Is out of the ground cuts have to be enlarged and fills rebuilt, but all this is being taken care of as fast as possible. I expect, however, that by the middle of September the general conditions will have been well taken care of. All the permanent bridges contemplated for this season will, I expect, be finished by June 10. Telegraph Line Complete. "The telegraph line is now connected up between Fort William and Prince Rupert, and just as soon as possible a through commercial service will be established. "On the western end of the line ballasting operations have been completed for a distance of 225 miles Have you a lot of your own? Secure one In Port Edward now. 9HMHKHttHHMHMH»tt3H»«> For Rent Modern 8-room house and bath Modern 4-room house and bath Two-room cabins, partly furnished, $8.00 per month Furnished house to rent—5 rooms completely furnished, Immediate possession; $35 a month One 3-room house, partly furnished, $20 a month Finis, Stores, and Warehouses Fire and Accident Insurance In strong Hoard Companies J.

"With regard to conditions at Prince Rupert, the western terminus of the road, 1 may state that the harbor frontage and drydock is 95 per cent, completed. Pacific Great Eastern. "The Pacific Great Eastern will make application to the Grand Trunk Pacific for land near the Fraser River as a centre for the works in building the line, of which already 110 miles are in operation on the Vancouver end, while 120 more miles wlll be ln shape for passenger service before the suspension of operations this fall. I expect that the entire line will be ready and placed in operation by 1916. To secure entrance to Prince George this line will cross the Fraser River by means of the Grand Trunk Pacific bridge at this point. Parties are now at work locating a line north of Prince George, but just where their ofjjec- tivs point Is remains a mystery. Good Progress on Park. "Splendid progress is being made in the development of the Dominion Government park at Jasper, and In blazing new trails and locating points of Interest for the tourist. The new headquarters office building is completed, and with the construction of an hotel, which, I understand, Is being contemplated by private interests, Jasper Park should prove an Ideal resting place for tourists taking this route to the San Francisco fair In 1915. "All along the line from Edmonton to Winnipeg the farmers are working the land and seeding operations appear to be quite general. A remarkably large section of land for a new railway can be noticed under cultivation. Opens Fine Country. The line may be said to open one of the best sections of British Columbia, and what the future development will be is still a matter of conjecture, although settlers are now treking to the front and taking up land, while the lumbering and mining interests are busily engaged getting the wealth from that land. Willow River, Prince George, Smithers, New Hazelton and Fort Fraser are all places that are bound to develop, as in each case the district surrounding these centres are rich In various resources. There is a large lumber mill at Willow River which, It is claimed, will give employment to a large number Of men, and already 300 laborers who were formerly employed on the construction of the road, have taken up land In this district, and a .similar condition of affairs is to be found nil along the line." . WOULD-BE ASSASSIN SHOOTS AT MAYOR A man who was later Identified as Michael Mahoney, a human derelict, fired a revolver shot into an automobile occupied by Mayor Mitchell of New York, Comptroller Prendergast, and Corporation Counsel F. L. Polk, wounding Polk in the mouth. The auto was standing in front of the City Hall as the mayor and his party were just about to leave for lunch. The shooter was immediately captured and rushed into a nearby police station to get him away from the crowd, which had begun to shout, "Lynch him." ihe attempt on Mayor Mitchell's life recalls vividly the shooting of the late Mayor Gaynor, who only died last fall, and as many believe, died from tbe effects of the wound received three years before. Like Gaynor's would-be assassin, Mahoney believed he had an imaginary grievance against the mayor, and his actions since the act indicate he is mentally unbalanced. It is more than likely he will be sent to Matteawan Asylum for the rest of his life. The photograph above shows Frank L. Polk (with the bandaged head), Mayor Mitchell and Sergeant Phelnn, escorting Polk from the police station, where his wound was dressed.

HUERTA MAJOR HUGHES OF VICTORIA KNEW HEAD OF MEXICAN GOVERNMENT WELL. During the Railway Construction in South Ruler Was Employee of Canadian. Mexico City, April 30.—While Washington is conferring with the South American envoys In the hope of reaching a basis for a peaceful solution of the difficulties between the United States and Mexico relative to the Huerta regime, the peace problem does not seem to be playing any very great part here. There is no halt in this city In the feverish preparations for war which are constantly going on here and which are everywhere apparent. Advise Fortifications. It has been suggested that the public authorities co-operate with the military forces. The commanders have advised the central government that strong fortifications be hastily prepared ln order to prepare the capital agalnsi seige. The plans for these will be considered In detail and probably carried Into effect, Indian Scouts. Conferences are being held with some of the Indian chiefs who know the country thoroughly for the purpose of having them throw forces out ln the mountains to harrass the American troops that may come In on the way to attack the capital. To Manufacture Guns. The railway foundry has been ordered to suspedd work upon railway equipment immediately. Supplementing this order is one to immediately commence the construction of two hundred cannon to be delivered to the government within a month, at the rale of fifty weekly. The first batch of these guns Is to be ready for testing within a few days. These cannon are to be despatched to points along the waterfront from Vera Cruz. Major Hughes, son of Hon. Col. Sam Hughes, minister of militia, gives an interesting interview to the Colonist relative to the character of President Huerta and the Mexicans in general. "I was stationed at Monterey, Mexico, for some years, as superintendent of a project undertaken by Messrs. Mackenzie and Mann, the Canadian railway builders," said Mr. Hughes. "Our work was to convert the narrow guage passenger railway, which then was all the service that the city, with its population of about 125,000, possessed, into a modern electric line. We also installed the waterworks and the drainage system. The entire undertaking involved an expenditure of about 17,000,000 and, as may be understood, such an enterprise was not finished in a day. As superintendent I had plenty of opportunity to grow acquainted with Monterey and to acquire an acquaintance with and 30me understanding of the Mexicans." Knew President Huerta. Major Hughes startled his interviewer at this stage with the remark that President Huerta, the figure which looms largest in the war clouds which are gatnering over the South, and the man whose name has been prominent in newspaper headlines throughout tie world during the past few days, was assistant superintendent of the work in question. This, it was explained, was about nine years ago. President Uiaz was in power at that time and the army was on a peace footing. Under these conditions there were many officers without military posts. General Huerta was in that position, and the authorities sent him to Monterey to take a place on the municipal work. The newcomer, Major Hughes says, introduced himself in a way! that made a splendid impression. "I, know nothing about water systems nor about electric tramways, but 1 i want to earn the money that goes with the position to which I have London, April 30.— The Nationalists express indignation in dissenting from the proposal made by a group of Influential Canadians as to tho Home Rule question. Thin proposal was that Home Rule be delayed till a special Imperial conference had elaborated a federal scneme for the whole Empire. This, It was suggested, would make provision for a common parliament at Westminster. One Nationalist says this is fantastic and impossible. They want Home Rule and want nothing el3e. They want their own parliament at Oublin. They want it now, not twenty years hence. (Continued on I>ast Page.) Cracksman Was Wanted.

American Magazine Heals With Subject of Forestry in Recent Number. The following article appeared in the April issue of American Forestry on "Progress in British Columbia." British Columbia has already travelled, surely and very rapidly, far along tbe road which leads to forest conservation. That is important, t;n.e in British Columbia's forests li estimated to be over one-half the total timber stand of all Canada. To what is British Columbia's progress ln forestry due? To these two things as I see It, First, a very remarkable opportunity to make the provincial forests serve the provincial welfare; for while British Columbia possesses large agricultural and rich mineral resources, vast water powers and great fisheries, it is primarily a forest country. Second, after opportunity, comes the man in William R. Ross, the provincial minister of lands, who, with the strong support of the Premier, Sir Richard McBride, is carrying forward wisely and vigorously a remarkabl progressive, clean-cut policy of land, forest and water conservation. This new forest branch is a distinctly vigorous infant. The toys with which it is playing happily and usefully are tbe forests of British Columbia. That makes quite an extensive puzzle picture for British Columbia's fortsts cover one hundred and fifty million acres. This infant organization spent last year about $350,000 and took in from rentals on timber held by lumbermen under lease from the Government "royalties," which means payments for stumpage, and from miscellaneous sources, about 13,00(1,000, or a revenue of $6.93 per capita for the entire population of the province. Nor is this somewhat precocious youngster interested merely in present returns, it also goes in quite ex. if the precedent be followed, as I rirmly believe it will. It is precisely one of the great conservation principles for which Gifford Pinchot has been fighting and has been winning, and goes on doing both, in the United States; and it is very gratifying to Americans that in his speech endowing the Royalty Bill of Mr. Ross, the Premier referred to Gifford Pinchot as "that, great conservation leader, who possesses the rare combination of vision, leadership and common sense." The application of that principle to tbe other vast resources of British Columbia, such as water powers and minerals, will make it, more nearly than any other government of which I know, the epitome of conservation principles, with the possible exception of Australia. I do not mean, of course, to Imply that the situation is absolutely roseate, Conservation confronts difficulties in (iritish Columbia as it does elsewhere. But there is in that province an admirable combination of opportunity—for British Columbia owns nearly all the natural re sources of British Columbia and the special Interests do not—and of patriotic far-sighted men like Sir Richard McBride, Mr. Ross and Mr. Bowser, the Attorney-general, in position of high trust. Such a combination is sure to get great results. The way in which the United States Forest Service has, by friendly co-operation, lent its help to the new forest branch, is an exceedingly praiseworthy and productive thing. The forest branch cannot be a replica of the Forest Service, because it deals with different conditions under different laws; but the purpose of both organizations is to get the highest good for the greatest number from publicly-owned forest resources, and there is and is always bound to be a constant and fruitful spirit of mutual help between them. That spirit is already active and at work. Skeena Land District —District of Queen Charlotte Islands. TAKE NOTICE that I, Mitchell Albert, Manager, of Prince Rupert, B.

If there is lo be a test of whether Hindus can land in Canada in defiance of governmental regulations under the Immigration Act, it may as well be made now as later, says tensively for forest fire protection!the Toronto Mail and Empire, in and last year held, with a force of an article which shows that the east 320 men, the total fire damage in is beginning to appreciate the situa- the entire provinoe down to $1S,-Iti0n that British Columbia finds it 364, which, to put it mildly, is dis tlnctly creditable tn those 320 men. During the year also the forest branch completed its organization of twelve forest districts, each with a district forester in charge. It made an admirable beginning on logging inspection of 794 operations whose product aggregaied one and one- third billion feet board measure, as well as great quantities of shingle bolts, piling, posts, mine props and poles, ll made a notable beginning, too on permanent forest improvements, in the construction of nearly twelve hundred miles of trail and 360 miles of telephone line. To complete the tale merely of Its more notable achievements, the forest branch has also developed a thriving little timber sale business, which lai-t year comprised $238,000 worm of timber sold, and a further $14 7,- 000 worth advertised for sale. When -.the fact is recalled that the forest branch Is not yet three years old, this progress is notable In forest history anywhere. The next task before the branch is to put forestry into effect on all timber limits with fairness to the forests I to the lumbermen. That, a- Mr. Knss, the minister of lands, amen,neil in a recent speech, is the mosi Important task of all; and he and his forest branch are facing it. PI ■ rei eni act Introduced by Mr. R' 88 for the adjustment of timber i i b Itles is a great accomplishment Without Kuinn into detail (for the net - available from the fori I brani li to anyone who asks for it i I w ■ mei elj in Indicate w hal it accomplishes iu fundamentals, This ai t in m ide- that royalties, now flftj cents, shall go up by flftj i"-i cent, un January l, 1915, and there remain for five years. Then, in M'_ii. comes a readjustment, under Which the Oovemmenl first determines the average mill run price of lumber for Hie last three years, and adds to the royalty for the next five- year period one-fourth of ihe excess above $18.00 per thousand feet. At the end of every five years for six live-year periods Ihe same process is renewed, I lie percentage of the price increment above a price of $18.00 taken by the Government in royalty rising gradually from twenty-five to forty per cent. This means straight profit-sharing between the public and the lumbermen. In revenue it means from forestry seeral times the present returns before Ihe period of the act is faded. As a precedent it means to ■British Columbia true conservation, 1 self in with respect to Asiatic Immigration. The principle of keeping British Columbia a "white man's" province must be upheld, and the government which refuses to let legal technicalities interfere with stern adhesion to the principle will undoubtedly act in accordance with the wishes of the Canadian people. The order from the department of the interior to immigration officers (at Victoria and Vancouver that the 400 Hindus sailing from Shanghai to Vancouver must not be allowed to land Is in conformity with the or- der-in-council of March 31 prohibiting the entry of artisans or laborers into British Columbia through any of the ports. Chief Justice Hunter's decision against the immigration reg- u'ation requiring a continuous passage of immigrants entering British Columbia does not affect orders barring all immigrants of artisan or laborer type from entry into liritish Columbia. If there should prove to be loopholes in the law to allow a free influx of Asiatics, there would be an immediate demand for an act of parliament proof against the legal "coach and four." The Hindu immi- graiion question differs from that of Japanese or Chinese immigration, because the Hindus -are liritish sub- jei is, claiming equality with other British subjects in other parts of the Empire, and entrance thereto on equal terms, The Imperial problems Involved i lake ll -.cry necessary that restriction or expulsion applied by Canada shall be discreetly managed and thai the general order barring all artisan! nd laborers should prove effei th e inder presenl clrcum- Btani i-s.

TAKE NOTICE that I, Geoffrey Francis Monckton, intend to apply for a licence to prospect for coal and petroleum on the following described lands: Commencing at a post planted 80 chains east of me south-east corner of my No. 2 claim, being on the west line of Lot 4386, thence 80 chains north, thence 80 chains east, thence 80 chains south, thence 80 chains west, containing 640 acres to be known as G. F. Monckton's No. 7 claim. Located February 20th, 1914. GEOFFREY FRANCIS MO.\ . - jN, ap 15 Per P. Chesley, Locator. The outlook for a flourishing min ing camp at the Rocber de Boule Mountain is exceedingly bright. Everything points to a very active season there, and the beginning of shipping from the camp to the Coast smelters, with the prospect that Granby Smelter will receive a good supply. That this is to be an active year Is borne out by the fact that at Skeena Crossing, which Is being regarded as the inlet to that section, B. H. Jones has arranged for the •recting of a new hotel with twenty rooms, capable of handling the trade that will develop. Mr. Jones Is also providing for an addition to the pack horse equipment and will have 25 horses there, being prepared, he says, to equip any company on short notice for any part ot the interior. Mr. Jones has bought over two carloads of lumber from the West- holme Company here, and will begin at once on his new buildings. Situated only about ten miles from the Rocher de Boule, and fourteen miles from the Kitsguekla coal out-crop- plngs, he has great faith that eventually with the development of the undertakings, there will probably be a smelter erected at the Crossing. There seems an assurance of ore at the Rocher de Boule, while the coal at Kitsguekla ih the best coking quality. The Continental Company, which holds what Is known as the Rocher de Boule Mine, is developing the property rapidly. It is reported in the city that at least 100,000 tons are ln sight there. The Granby Company is said to be ready to treat the ore and negotiations are on with that In view. To ship to Prince Ru pert will require bunkers, either here or at Port Edward, and these may be put in by the Granby Company to handle all ore from the interior coming over the Grand Trunk Pacific. Mr. Bagg, another mining man from the Rocher de Boule, is most optimistic as to tbe outlook there, He has the Panama Group, which promises to be second to none. The Aloha Group, controlled by Raleigh Trimble, of Portland, Is opening up magnificently. Mr. Trimble has th* capital to carry out all kinds of work and is laying the mine out properly. After tunnelling Into the mountain, he has proved the depth of the ore to be at least 400 feet. He wlll tunnel farther, and is in hopes that It will be found as ho advances that a depth of about 1000 feet will be proved up on the vein. Taken all round, Rocher de Boule is likely to become one of the most valuable camps in this district. ARRIVALS BY O.T.P.

CANADIAN NORTHERN AID. Again there is a holding up in horror of the hands of the Liberal party because It is feared that the Government at Ottawa is going to again aid the Canadian Northern Railway. A large part of the condemnation is the ordinary irre- sponsible talk that goes with being "agin the government." In view of the trend of events in Canada of late, there are few, it is safe to say, that would hurt themselves to assist Sir Donald Mann and Sir William Mackenzie personally. It has not been the Borden Government, however, that assisted these men to get the Canadian Northern Railway- where it is today. The Laurier government has stood sponsor for these two financiers in their undertakings, together with the provincial governments across the continent. The Laurier government not only did this, but conceived that these two men were of such outstanding importance as builders of the Dominion that they should rank as knights, and so recommended, it is said. The Laurier government, no doubt, believed it was doing good service to Canada when it backed up Mackenzie and Mann's projects. That being so, the believers in the infallibility of Sir Wilfrid and bis colleagues need not be so ready now to condemn when, in order to see an enterprise started by these men, the Government of the day, after full consideration, decides, probably against Its wishes, to help it through. It is certainly better tn see that the credit of Canada and of Canadian railroads is kept right rather than do anything that might be interpreted in the money markets as repudiation. For irresponsible persons to advocate seeing Mackenzie and Mann and their enterprises go to the wall rather than give any furtner aid is not a policy to be considered by men having the responsibility of the ■country on their shoulders. That kind of bravado sounds very well. It will not appeal to thinking men. The embarrassment of a concern like the Canadian Northern Railway means far more than loss to Mackenzie and Mann, if it only meant the latter it might well be considered wise to refuse. There are far greater responsibilities affecting the whole country. The effects are far too wide-reaching. Financial institutions that would, figuratively speaking, hold up their hands in holy horror at being asked to advance a few hundred dollars to a legitimate business are said to have ' ■ nd It possible to advance with lai Ish hands to .-, eculators like Mac- 1 I nd Mann.

A mining engineer who has had experience all over the world, E. H. Wilson, cf San Francisco, is now here Inspecting this field. He has recently come from Mexico, where his company owns extensive properties which have been worked for many years, but . which were stopped through the. political troubles there. The summary manner in which operations were stopped does not instil in Mr. Wilson any great respect for the system cf government and the people of the southern republic. A train of bullion was stopped on the way from the mine and taken possession of by bandits, while the works about the place were wrecked also. Mr. Wilson has been to Hazelton, inspecting the country there, and seems well satisfied with the outlook. He believes that there will be a good showing of mineral in the north here, and will probably make still more extensive investigations into the mining resources. Mexico, he contends, should be dealt with firmly. The natives area mixture of many races with the original Aztec- Indian, with the result that the present race is a very badly deteriorated one. The only salvation for the country is for the United States to step in and rule it, he says. Ignorance and unreliability characterize the natives to such an extent that only force can keep them within bounds. They are incapable of ruling themselves. Might only is right. t'nder Diaz a system of fear was exercised and only in that way were they kept in their place. Mr. Wilson says the country is rich, and he will return should order be restored there and the opportunity given to resume work.

No Hope Is Held Out Now For His Recovery—Other Two Are Improving. One of the men who robbed the Union Bank at New Hazelton is doomed to death. He will never have to answer to the charge to be laid against him in that connection as far as the courts are concerned. At the present time he is in the hospital but blood poisoning has set in and he cannot, live long, the doctors re port. This man, the police claim, was deeply implicated in the crime, and they had ample proof against him. He was wounded by a soft-nosed bullet, the ball entering from behind, at the lower extremity of the body. As it passed through, a terrible wound was inflicted about the groin, a bole being left that would take a man's two fists. Now blood poisoning has developed and no hope is held out for him. There are two other prisoners still held, awaiting their recovery from the wounds inflicted when they were fired upon by the citizens. These men will recover. The date of their trial has not yet been set. o FAREWELL DANCE IN HONOR OF MISS MACKENZIE Skeena Land District—District of Coast, Range 5.

ATTEMPT TO OUT OFF THE FOOD SUPPLY Vera Cruz, May 2.—A strained situation at Tampico and an effort on the part of the Mexican governor of the state to cut off the food supply from Vera Cruz is now dividing attention in Mexico. The reported massing of rebel forces at Tampico is regarded as an important move. There is a feeling that the fall of that city will have some bearing on the immediate policy of the United States towards Mexico. Persons well informed on the federal preparedness are very skepetical with regard to the predictions of an early success by the rebels. It is pointed out that three federal gunboats so far have easily repelled all attacks on the place. Starring Vera Crus. Just now the only food supplies reaching Vera Cruz are coming from small ranches near enough to the city to allow the farmers to feel assured of United States protection. If the order of the Mexican governor of Vera Cruz threatening the execution of anyone bringing food to the city becomes effective this small supply will also be cut oft. Huerta Rejects Proposal. Mexico City, May 2.—A proposition from the foreign ministers to send an official commission to Washington to endeavor to arrange the differences between the United States and Mexico has been rejected by the cabinet. President Huerta has issued an order prohibiting commerce with the United States and permitting commissioners of ports to reject the entrance of American steamers. All cargoes arriving from the United States wlll be confiscated by the government. Vera Cruz customs house has been declared closed to international traffic. No Deadlock Yet. Washington, May 2.—Assurances of peace are steady, with an abatement of war talk. The dominant feature of the Mexican situation is the attention centred on the work of the South American envoys, who reported progress and avoidance of any deadlock between the parties. The failure of Carranza so far to accept the proposal for suspension of hostilities with Huerta has caused a continued doubt for the outlook for broadening the scope of the mediators in the work of settling the entire Mexican situation. There is a report that Dr. Ryan of the American service was shot as a spy by the Mexican federals. This has caused much apprehension. Reassurances have come direct from Huerta.

RICH MINERAL FIND ON LINE OF G.T.P. * 4 Edmonton, May 2.—That a gold claim has been -discovered and filed on at Albreda, B.C., on the Grand Trunk Pacific and Canadian Northern main lines, west of the Yellow head Pass, that it is estimated to contain about $53,750,000 worth of gold quartz, and that a company wlll be formed and development work started at once, Is the news brought to the city by Thomas A Kiteley, a local broker; F. H. ben- eker, a mining engineer of New Yorl- and E. A. Shuler, of Winnipeg, all three of whom have just returned from the new field. "The top body runs about 1,500 feet down toward the river, is about 20 feet wide, and 400 feet deep stated Mr. Beneker. "There is an enormous body of quartz there. I estimate that there is over a million and a quarter tons, and from assays already made it should average $43 to the ton. It is about 50 per cent, free milling and 50 per cent, refractory; that is, about half can be rdined and the gold separated by crushing, while the other half will have to go to a smelter." Mr, Kiteley said that It is intended to form a company to develop the property if further examinations and assays come out as expected. Already some work has been done and 75,- 000 electric horse-power can be generated from water power in the immediate vicinity. A New York company is being formed to carry out this project. The two railroads run side by side at Albreda, although the Canadian Northern steel has not yet reached that far. Grading and bridges are finished, however, and a daily train leaves Edmonto. tor McBride, sonlo distance on, via the Grand Trunk Pacific every night at 10:45. Albreda summit Is the highest point on the Canadian Northern Railway. The three men say that other minerals besides gold abound in the district, especially silver ami gaiena. Only last week a $45,000 a ,ca proposition changed hands, an American company being the purchasers. Great activity is predicted jr the whole district. Mr. Dagt,. a well-known mining man of Skeena Crossing, is ln the city. He was one of tne pioneers of Prince Rupert. Skeena Land District — District of Queen Charlotte Islands.

The publication of these pre-emptors' maps, which was commenced by the department in 1911, when four maps were Issued for the purpose of showing intending settlers the areas surveyed and distinguishing between the lands available for pre-emption and those alienated. The four maps issued in that year covered 12,000 square miles. The great advance made in the work of the survey branch is evidenced by the fact that the ten maps being issued this year will cover over 100,000 square miles and the majority of these maps will be available to the public by the middle of June. The two maps which are now complete are those dealing with land in the vicinity of Fort George and the south fork of the Fraser, where on June 1 and 16 an area of 80,000 acres in the reserve on either side of the Fraser River along the route of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway will be opened to settlement, the eastern part at McBride on June 1 and the western part at Fort George on June 16. A pamphlet has been issued by the Department of Lands describing the district. Tbe pre-emptorB' maps In the first year of their publication, as stated, covered bu 12,000 square miles. The following year 40,000 square miles were covered, last year the area embraced totalled 80,000 square miles, and this year the extent of territory embraced in these maps is 100,000 square miles. When the publication of the maps was commenced in 1911 the information available did not warrant anything better than a rough map solely intended for the convenience of land-seekers, and, while this has been the prime object kept in view in the annual publica tion of these useful maps, the in crease in knowledge of the geo graphical features arising from the extension of surveys in advance of settlement has enabled a great advance to be made, and these maps today, while filling the purpose for which they were intended, are also good general utility maps. A new feature appearing on the pre-emptors' maps for the first time this year, is the showing in a distinct, color, the lands igserved for university purposes, and lands reserved for public auction. All maps of the pre-emptors' series are distributed to the public free of charge and are sent in quantities for this purpose to the offices of the various Government Agents throughout the province, „,«,-.■■». ■•«- i ■ be known as T.

INSURANCE RATES. ,' The splendid record made ai all times by the local lire department is something that residents nf the city may well feel proud of, Never once has that department under Chief McDonald fallen down in ils work. There Is a feeling of confidence at all times that whenever a call conies in the response will be prompt and the work on the scene intelligent. This is a great satisfaction to the citizens, and should be so to the insurance underwriters and companies. At the same time that efficient department never turns out that there is not a feeling of resentment stirred up in the citizens against the treatment meted out to Prince Rupert by the insurance companies doing business here. There Is no getting away from the fact that the insurance companies treat Prince Rupert in an atrocious way. The rates y are out of all proportion to the efficiency of the equipment, for fighting fire. There seems no likelihood of any redress neither. Advertise in The Journal.

Don't fall to use my services in any way in which they may be of value." He was taken at his word. .Major Hughes affirms that he proved invaluable. If he did not understand the engineering technicalities in connection with waterworks and electric power, there was little he did not know about the men. With li im In authority there was never any trouble with the Mexican laborers. If the latter had any complaint they expressed it, and the position of their employers was made clear through General Huerta wiih satisfactory results. Had Seen Service. The president, prior to this, it is slated, had seen considerable active service. He was detailed, with a large force to suppress a native rising in Yucatan. He took hold of the situation with ihe energy and capacity which he has displayed frequently since, and peace was restored. The effectiveness of his work in that district, is demonstrated, Major Hughes pointed out, by the fact that there neier has been a rebellion in Yucatan since, and this one was in 1903. General Huerta, as Major Hughes remembers him, was a man of exceptionally strong character. He had an impressive personality and was possessed of more than ordinary intellectual capacity. In everything he undertook he was thorough aud enthusiastic. Above all he was a patriot, believing strongly in tbe future of his native land and ready to devote his life to its advancement and aggrandizement. General Impressions. Of Mexico and of Meiicans, Major Hughes' view may be expressed in a few words. The country, he thinks, is one of great wealth. He declares that it has wonderful possibilities, goth agriculturally and through the wealth of its mines. All that is necessary is a period of peace and a stable form of government to prove these statements. With reference to the people, he maintains that those of m-ans, the upper classes, are charming. They are invariably educated abroad and are cultured in the broadest sense. Scarcely any but are able to address one in English, French or German, and all, he states, are gifted with a spirit of hospitality whP-h is exceedingly pleasing The lower classes, however, are at the oilier extreme. They are exceedingly ignorant. To Hie state of the masses Major Hughes attributes the unfortunate position of the country. Tbe people generally, he thinks, have no understanding of tbe term responsible government. He, therefore, does not believe that it would be possible to successfully introduce it at presenl. There would have to be some preparation, some intermediate stage, before the masses could take an intelligent interest in the country's affairs. Ostensibly tne republic was modeled, constitutionally, after the United States. There were the House of Representatives, the Senate, the President and bis cabinet, and so forth. Elections » .loke. Everything wus the same except the casting of the ballot. That was altogether different. On election day a few friends of the government were extended special invitations to attend at a certain place on a specified date to vote. Almost always they obeyed Ihe summons. On the following day the government organ would probably announce the return of the administration's choice by a majority nt anything from ten to twenty thousand. This would lie the first the people knew about It and the news would be received enthusiastically! und a log celebration would ensue. T ni. Major lliiglos affirms, is the ni" ins operandi of a Mexican election as fni as lie could learn. He added thai he once was amused und; interested by one of his Mexican i ; ii'huiiic lie asked for leave ot absence, wlilcn Major; i' [in b granted, I'•■ 'hen explained that i -ii;. lo see ;i friend; h : tended ha\ ing him elected to j ' ii i louse of Rept esentatives for the i aexl term. "You mean,' Major, Hughes, remarked in his innocence,] "thai you are to lie made a candidate." '-Certainly not," was the positive answer, "I am going to be a Iilber of the House. This, il was observed, shed some light on the situation. The common people counted for nothing. All officials were appointed, front the governors of the different stales down. I.(1ST.
