NEW FORCE GETTING
READY AT DRYDOCK
Representatives Of The Company
That Is To Erect The Buildings At
Hay's Creek Are Now Preparing
To Start--Largest Docking Equipment On Pacific Well Under Way
The prei.arat.ions for the construction of the buildings at the
drydock at Hays Creek are beginning
and before many days pass there
will be active work going on on the
buildings, as mentioned by The Jour-
nal~Sunday. This part of the operations at Hays Creek, on the largest
drydock on the Pacific, will occupy
a very considerable gang of men for
some months to come. The buildings
will be erected In order that the
pontoons fo<- the great 20,000-ton
floating dock may be constructed
.here in the shipbuilding yards that
are to be a permanent feature of the
yards.
Mr. Beer, who is to supervise the
work, left yesterday morning. Mr.
Wineland, who is to take charge of
the actual work himself for the
Wineland Construction Company,
and Mr. Pearce, the engineer for the
company, are remaining and getting
operations started.

GARDEN OF THE WORLD.
London, June 23.-The Bishop
of London, who visited Canada
some time ago. speaking at the
Mansion House dinner today, declared that Canada was the
"garden of tho world." It was

population, ho said.
DR. THOMSON
CALLED HERE
MEMBER  FOR   YUKON    ON     HIS
WAV   BACK   NORTH   VISITED
FRIENDS.
Ho Remarks Upon the Character of
the Session   Which  Has Just
Closed.
Among the arrivals by the Princess
Sophia yesterday was Dr. Thompson,
the member for the Yukon in the
House of Commons. He is on his way
back to Dawson after the session.
The Doctor had time to pay a visit
to his brother, J. H. Thompson, and
other friends during the stay over of
the steamer.
Speaking of the session, he says
that Premier Borden has made himself very strong in the country by
his able administration of affairs.
The session, owing to the blocking
methods that were adopted by the
Opposition, was rendered less satisfactory from the standpoint of general business than would otherwise
have been the case. The Opposition
kept, up the useless debate on the
naval question for the great part of
the session. Then towards the close
when the estimates were being put
through millions were passed without a voire being raised from the
Opposition. The Doctor says that,
while there was nothing but what
was correct in connection with the
estimates, the function of an opposition to make full enquiry into the
money that was voted was lost sight
of. Votes for millions at a time
went through without a single challenge being made.
Dr. Thompson is inclined to think
that there will be two sessions of
the House before there is an appeal
to the country.

is built to easily take care of the
steamship Minnesota, the largest
vessel on this coast at the present
time.
The pontoons which are to be built

The keynote of the President's speech was that the- currency

THE  COUNCIL  DECIDES TO  PUR.
CHASE   SCAVENGING   EQUIPMENT NOW USED.
The Price of $1)00  |s    Regarded by

Bargain.
Tho city council a few weeks ago
decided that it would be well to
take over the scavenging. The outfit of the partners who are now
operating this is to be bought. This
was decided upon last evening on the
report of the health committee. The
price for the two horses and the
carts, etc., is to be $900.
On the report favoring the purchase of this equipment, Aid, Sutherland stated, as chairman of the
committee, that they had made an
investigation into the plant and also
made inquiries as to the worth of the
outfit. It was worth all that was
asked for it. In addition to this, it
was found that it would cost the
city perhaps $250 to get the work
done while an equipment was being
got here if bought outside.
The report was adopted.

.Money  to  Be  Returned  by
City Later.
There appeared before the city
council last evening Fred Stork, who
pointed out the necessity for getting
something done in the way of recreation grounds in the city. He
thought himself that ihere was a
site at Acropolis Mill between the
reservoir and Borden Street which
might be so converted at a small
cost. There was a rising bank that
could easily be made. Into a grandstand, and the part, in front of it at
an expenditure of say $8000 might
be made into a splendid grounds,
400 feet by 000 feet. He realized
that he would be met with the
money situation, but if the council
would have the engineer report upon
the proposition he felt that a joint
stock company could be organized
with, say, from $10 to $100 worth
of stock being taken by the citizens.

Today Prince Rupert citizens are
to have in their midst a distinguished
party of visitors from the south.
They have come to the city from a
foreign land. Prince Rupert extends
to them no less hearty a welcome on
that account. The visitors are of the
self-same blood as are the residents
on this side of the line. The governments and the instiulions of both
Canada and the United States, although they may differ in some details to suit slightly altered conditions, have sprung from the same
origin and there is essentially a
common feeling of brotherhood between the peoples of the two countries.
The residents of Seattle who are
to arrive today are doubly welcome
to this city and The Journal but
breathes the wish of every citizen
when it invites them to walk in and
make themselves at home. If they
want anything they don't see, ask for
it. If Prince Rupert has It, it is for
them; if Prince Rupert lacks it, well,
the city is young and frontier conditions  prevail  to  some extent yet.
In addition to the general hospitality which the city extends to all
comers, the residents of Seattle
must appeal strongly to the builders of Prince Rupert. Seattle has
a reputation for overcoming difficulties. The citizens of Seattle bave
never lacked civic pride and loyalty
to the place. Among -those who
come  today  are  the   business     men

who have put Seattle in the proud
position it occupies among the
coast cities. These men have many
of them gone through the self-same
experiences that citizens of Prince
Rupert are meeting with at the
present time. They had physical difficulties with respect to the site of
the city to overcome just as there
are heavy tasks in that line to face
in Prince Rupert. They had jealous
rivals who sought to belittle the
chances of that city in the same
way as Prince Rupert has had to
combat  similar  adverse  knockings.
The coming of these Seattle business men should be an iinspiration
to residents here. These men made
Seattle in spite of all obstacles. What
they have done for the Puget Sound
city will be repeated here. Faith in
the future and determination to win
out will accomplish the marvels that
stand out in bold relief in Seattle.
In perfunctory way therefore is a
welcome accorded the Seattle visitors. Prince Rupert business men
have put their hands to a task in
the carrying out of which Seattle
has taught the way. There cannot be
too much of the Seattle spirit impregnated here,
 o	
Mr. Beer, of the Wineland Construction Company, which has the
contract for the buildings in the
drydock yards, was a passenger
south yesterday morning. He will
return   in  a  few   weeks'   time.
While there is, as far as nan lie
learned, nothing very definite received in the city from the headquarters of the Grand Trunk Pacific
relative to the plans for the liotel
that is to be started here in a few
weeks' lime, it. is rumored that the
plans of the company are being reviewed somewhat by the architeel in
order to give still more room lhati

with the building. From semi-official
sources it is learned that the heads
of the company realize that the needs
of this place in the way of a tourist
centre are to be far greater than was
at  first  anticipated.
In view of this it has been decided, according to this Information,
to have the hotel made commodious
enough on the start to take care of
all the travel that may offer for
some  time to come.  The experience

WHAT PRINCE RUPERT
HAS ASSURED TO HER
The city ef Prince Rupert starts off with an assurance with respect to the future far in excess of anything possessed by any other
city in Canada. While cities of over 100,000 of a population are
striving to interest capital in drydoeks. In shipbuilding plants, in
elevators and in many other lines of industry and permanent improvements these are assured to Prince Rupert in its infancy and in
many instances the works are already under way. Few residents
really realize what the work means to the city. In order to bring
to their attention the situation In this respect the following works
now under way or assured to the city are enumerated:
Prince Rupert floating dock, under construction by the G. T. P.
at a cost approaching $2,000,000 and capable of taking care of the
largest vessel on the Pacific Ocean.
Shipbuilding plant in conjunction with
which can be constructed coasting vessels
year.
Ctii'.a elevators with a capacity of ten lni'lion bushels to be
constructed by the G. T. P.
- Colossal hotel to cost a million dollars now about to be started by
the G.T.P.
Permanent station and sheds for the wharf now about to start
by the ii. T. P.
Acres of railway yards now being cleared by the G. T. P, of
rock at a cost of a million dollars or more.
Provincial Government Buildings of stone structure costing hall
a million now about to be started.
Federal Government Buildings to cost a sum approximating
that of the Provincial Buildings.
Large cold storage for llslih g industry now bui't by the Canadian Fish & Cold Storage Company at Seal Cove, and supplied with
a large fleet of trawlers, seining boats, etc., costing a million and
a half dollars, now in full operation.
Cannery of the most improved type under construction by
the Canadian  Fish   &  Cold  Storage Company.
Cold storage to be erected by the British Columbia Fisheries this
fall at Porpoise Harbor to be used in the fishing industry somewhat
similar to the Canadian Fish & Cold Storage Company.
In addition to these as some of the large plants that are absolutely assured, there are numerous other fishing concerns with
plans somewhat less extensive,additional works for the G. T. P,
permanent docks for the railway company, oil storage tanks for
the Standard Oil Company to supply all the demands of the
north and numerous other industrial concerns.
Under these curcumstances, can it be wondered as that citizens
of Prince Rupert feel sure with respect to the future.

The Matter Is    Referred to Finance

At the meeting of the council last
evening there was an application
from J. Y. Rochester and other
lease-holders of lots on Cameron
Bay asking for a remission of the
taxes that had been paid to the city
for the past three years in view, as
set forth in the letter, that they had
not had the use of the lots owing to
the fact that the Grand Trunk Pacific had   blocked  the  way  in.
Aid. Bullock-Webster thought that
this was something that it might be
well to have the advice of the city
solicitor on before any action was
taken by the council and he thought
that it might well stand over until
the return of the solicitor.
The matter was referred to the
finance committee.

our visitors;
The visit to Prince Rupert today
of a distinguished party of Seattle
business men is of more than passing Importance. The name of Seattle
is synonymous with united action on
the part of the citizens of a place to
overcome all civic difficulties. Well
may the men who are beginning
things in Prince Rupert sit at the
feet of the visitors from Seattle and
learn of them. These business men of
tiie southern city never knew whal
it was to acknowledge defeat. They
stood by their city through dull days
as well as through bright ones. The
spirii that was shown in Seattle can
well be emulated here, as we believe
it is being done.
On this continent the human tide
which has carried with it industrial
and commercial progress has been
surging westward, building up large
centres as it came towards the Pacific. The striking of the western
shore-line seems to have diverted the
stream northward. Prince Rupert occupies a strategic position in this
connection. It Is the key to the
great north that is now developing
in Canada and Alaska. Our visitors
are on a tour of investigation as
well as of pleasure. Their eyes are
open to the opportunities that exist
here.
Prince Rupert is occupying a
somewhat similar position to whal
Seattle did bul a few years a^o.
Without being charged with being
discourteous to our visitors, we may
add Ihat we feel that Prince Rupert's
position is such as to give it advantages ovei even Seattle.
The development of Prince Rupert
in no sense means injury to Seattle,
or to any of the oilier cities in the
south. On the contrary, Ihe development of trade here will mean increased commercial business in the
cities farther south. This has been
the history of the development of
commercial and trading centres. Seattle, Vancouver and the other ports
to the south will not suffer with
Prince Rupert's rise. This city will
develop a ir«icl<> of her own, anil in
doing so will throw increased business in the direction of these other
points. Seattle business men are
large enough to realize this.
It is true that in some small ways
Prince Rupert may cut off from Seattle trade that is going that way
from Alaskan ports, bul in return
for this Prince Ruperl will give
Seattle trade far in excess of what
is cut off. Besides this, the general
developmenl of this northern country
that will follow the building up of
a great shipping pon here will mean
further extensions of business for all
the  cities  OH   Ihe  Coast.
It is practical commercial men j

PRIVATE SEWERS
GIVE TROUBLE
ALD.     BULLOCK-WEBSTER    AND
ALU.    McCAFFERY    CLASH
OVER MATTER.
The Question Called for Information
Concerning   a   Private
Dispute.
A matter affecting the sewer proposition in the city came before the
council last evening and called for
an explanation that seemed to affect
private parties to a large extent. It
was Introduced by Aid. Bullock-Webster, who wanted information as to
why bills were sent out from the-
assessor's office in Ihe city hall culling for repairs to a private sewer on
Fifth Avenue.
lie said that it appeared that the
work was carelessly done in any
event, for it was, acording to the
first notices, made to appear thai
ten were to pay for the work. This
was later changed to fourteen, and
it now appeared that there should
have been fifteen who were charged.
lie contended (hat it was doubtful if
this could be collected, and, being
for a private sewer, he did not know
how it came to go out from the assessor's office. Some said they
would not pay.
Aid. McCaffery explained the
matter. He said that Hie work had
been done in repairing the sewer bj
the city engineer's instructions. The
notices had been sent om to try
and collect from those who were
connected up with it. As to there being a mistake as to the number of
connections he said that he himself
was responsible for that in large
measure. He explained that there
had been some additional connections
made Io the sewer In question without permission of those who put it
in. Aid. Bullock-Webster had made
some connections in this way.
Aid. Bullock-Webster contended
that he had agreed to pay $15 a connection at first. He had paid $120,
however, for the four connections.
Why should a private sewer be collected by the-city he asked.
Aid. McCaffery said that he felt
that if there were those who refused
to pay owing to the fact that the
amendment to the bylaw had nol
yel passed they might not be able to
make them pay. He would himself
pay for those who dicl nol so pay.
He did not propose to take a lot of
time discussing at council a matter
that was very private in its character and affected only those directly
interested.

OPPOSITION   FAILED.
The Liberal Opposition at Ottawa
during the past session appears to
have failed in its mission to /guard
the public interest by a careful
scrutiny of the estimates. Centering
all its energies upon the one thing
—that of blocking the naval bill—
they let the ciuestion of the estimates
pass without the least scrutiny. Million dollar votes, no doubt very
necessary, were allowed to go by
without a question even being asked.
The Liberals find fault with the fact
that there is no opposition in the
British Columbia Legislature. It is
evident that at Ottawa when it comes
to real, practical opposition there Is
little better than there is in British
Columbia,   where  no   Liberals  sit.

Reported.
The residents in the Vicinity of
Ambrose Avenue will have lo wail
fur a lime for a better water supply.
The matter came before the council
last night again and it was reported
that the only way to Improve the
supply would be by puiting in a
cast iron pipe from the main line.
This would cost about $700 and
would not form a part of the permanent system when Installed.
Aid. Maitland was sorry to see that
nothing  could  he  clone as  reported
by the committee,  lie thought that
perhaps the work at    Beach    Place.
where  there was not  much  need  of
the pipe line, might, wait and allow
this to go on, as there were   a large
number of families to be served by it.
Aid.     Bullock-Webster     endorsed
j the view of Aid. .Maitland. He would
j like to see something done for those
j over the creek, as previous councils
had   not,   found     it   possible     to   de
much.
The report was adopted, the    acting   mayor,   Aid.   Naden,  explaining

the Intention of shelving    it, bul he-
J cause  the  money   was  not  available

In "The Criminal Code /unend-

Ileuses ol Parliament during the
closing days of lasi session and received the Royal assent on June 6,
some important and much needed
changes are made In (he law and
the mi cannot bul be regarded as
nn extremely useful piece of progressive legislation.
Tiie act contains thirty-two sections, many of which are merely
changes in the administrative regulations and Interpretations of tiie
law as it previouslj stood, There
are, however, a number of changes
that must be far reaching and beneficial In their result. These have

Important changes are those dealing
with tiie carrying of dangerous weapons and those dealing with the social e\ il.
Witli regard to the first of these
questions, it is now enacted that,
"Everyone is guilty of an offence
and liable on summary conviction,
to a penalty not exceeding one hundred dollars and costs or to imprisonment for three months, or to
both fine and costs and Imprisonment," who, without a permit has in
his possession, elsewhere than in his
house or place of business, a pistol
or air gun, or sheath knife, or a
bowie knife or metal Knuckles, or a
skull cracker, or other offensive
weapon, or who sells or lends these
to a person without a permit, or
who sells to a person witli a permit
without duly recording the sale so
that purchaser mid weapon can be
identified, or who fails to keep
duplicate of permit, or who issues a
peniiii without lawful authority." A
right of search is given every police
officer.
With regard to the social evil,
"Everyone is guilty of an indictable!
offence and shall he liable to five
years' Imprisonment, and on any
second or subsequent conviction
shall also lie liable io he- whipped
in addition lo each Imprisonment,"
who procures or attempts to pro-
ire or solicit any woman or girl;
who administers drugs lor immoral
purposes or "being u male person,)

OIL   FOR   LORNE.
Towards the end of Ihe present
month the powerful tug Lome,
Captain Cutler', which visits her frequently, will shift from Victoria to
North Vancouver, where she will be
converted into un oil-burner. The
Wallace shipyards bave been awarded the contract for putting oil in
the Lome, and it is expected that
the big job will he completed within
three weeks after the mechanics
start making the alterations. The
change will not keep the towboat
out of service for any length of
time.
With oil the steaming radius ot
the Lome will be increased considerably, and her stokehold staff will
'be cut down materially, which is a
natural sequence to the installation
of oil fuel. It is not expected that
the speed of the Lome will be affected as her boilers have always
furnished sufficient steam to turn
her powerful engines over to the
limit.

and above this bulkhead the centre
will be reinforced for carrying keel
blocks. There will be three partial
bulkheads on each side to stiffen the
pontoons. All diagonal braces are
heavily reinforced with anchor
stocks. The arch brace is made up of
planking through-bolted with screw
bolts, and is intended to take the reverse stresses when the dock is floating light. This is a considerable
amount when it is considered that the
wings are superimposed weights
carrying at the extreme ends of the
trusses, supported by an evenly distributed pressure over the entire
bottom. Six by 12-inch deck beams
are worked across the upper and
lower truss members, carrying the
5-inch deck and bottom planking
parallel to, and reinforcing the truss
members for the maximum stress.
This construction also makes it possible to get in double vertical tie
rods alongside of bulkheads in such
a manner thai they may be ret.laced
at. any lime. The whole structure is
made water-tight by caulking with
white  pine  wedges.
To protect the exterior from
teredo and oilier marine worms, it is
first thoroughly graved witli tar
poisoned with arsenic, then sheathed
with two layers of hair felt, each
thoroughly saturated with tar and
arsenic, and then with creosoted
lumber, also treated with arsenic
and thoroughly secured with galvanized nails. This treatment, together
with the facility for inspection .afforded by the possibility of detaching and docking any pontoon, has
been found to give satisfactory protection.
Each pontoon will require approximately 230,000 board ft. of
lumber or a total, including outrigger or prow on tbe end pontoons,
of 4,000,000 board ft. The entire bill
of lumber will be of selected grade
of Oregon pine or Douglas fir.
