TIW ^i / !*-'■ Princeton coal is cleaner than wood for domestic use. Better do than dream, better be than seem. Development bf the varied resources tributary to Princeton requires capital—Scientific investigation has proveu vast mineral deposits—Natnre has .supplied every requisite for producing the raw material ahd manufacturing it cheaply. Vol. XI. No. 17. PRINCETON, B.C., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 1910. $2 a Year in Advanze GOOD WATERSYSTEM Reservoir Tanks on Western Suburbs of Town ;j to Supply. Big Head of Water Sufficient for all Purposes—Water Turned on This Summer. The most interesting bit of information recently published was that- in reference to waterworks in last week's Star. Additional datum is kindly furnished by E. Waterman, manager, who hopes and expects to have the waterworksfi>n operation this summer v/^ The pumping station will be located on the Tulameen river, the water filter ing into a large well, from, whence it is pumped into two stage : reservoir tanks with a capacity of about 50,000 gallons. The tanks are served through a 5-inch pipe, the water-being lifted 180 feet high: An 8-inch main delivers the water irom the tanks along Billiter avenue to Bridge street, along it from bridge to bridge. An alternative maiU-from the tanks will be laid on Granite street to its intersection with Vermilion Av. thence along it and connecting with the Bridge ^street main. Thii system amply provides for accident and will preserve a continuous supply. On Bridge street there will be about 180 feet of head, which will be sufficient for present fire purposes. Tbe stave pipe is wire wound and is coated with . tar inside and out. When completed Princeton will have as good if not better waterworks than any place of its size iu the province ing at the moon. The wigwam and the teepee have given place to stately residence and business block and the bum of industay is heard on every side Gov. Dewdney is a loyal friend of Princeton although he is interested in another place near by. He is broad enough and big enough to recognize merit wherever he sees it. His efforts to secure Dominion public buildings in Princeton are highly appreciated by every mentalifjp sound citizen and it will be largely due to him that the early erection of them willbe undertaken. _.v PIONEER HAS SEEN MANY CHANGES. Hon. E. Dewdney came up from the coast last Friday and stayed until Monday. His large interests here requite personal attention and this was one of his occasional visits. Each returning trip to Princeton unfolds new vistas of the future greatness of this camp with its vast mineral resources and central situation. Gov. Dewdnex knows this country from its priniefcii slate, whon the savage cannibals wor/rqjgohole a good, I fat white man with 'as much relish as au epicure would down "turtle soup or pate de foie gras, until now it has a railway and is modernized with high society and religious culture. He has seen the transmigration of the dangerous and uncouth barbarian end witnessed the transforming power of steam in displacing the pack train and freight wagon. He saw our picturesqe townsite when it was the home only of the drummer biue grouse and his family, of the owl and his lonely toots, and of the sneaking coyote howl- CONSULTS WITH HIS CONSTITUENTS. ;L. W; Shatford, M,P^P., accompanied by H. A. Turner, the new road superin tendent, spent three-orrourdays recently in Princeton and vicinity. Their visit was for the purpose of obtaining an ap proximate estimate for the work required and looking into the further needs o&tfae.; taxpayers regarding roads and"■. trails. The executive committee opthe board of trade and the hospital committee, introduced by Ernest Waterman, conferred with Mr. Shatford?f'ithe'!'latter receiving every assurance of ''the' money grant from the government and the former promised certain road improvements, &c, which., when completed will be of inestimabie benefit and add to the public convenienc and value of property. Mr. Shatford has done and is doing the right thing by the people in recognizing their just claims for roads, etc., the sum of $100.800 being yr»t«-H f»r ,li» flllSafct together with the supplementary amount of jfci^ooo for bridges, or a total of nearly fro^jTirys Mr. Turner, road superintendent, is well known here and Mr. Shatford is considered fortunate in securing the services of so capable a gentleman.

Luke Gibson and George Wardle have completed arrangements for removing to Hope and will there establish^, livery aijd_butcher business. Hope has a mild attack ofboom tever and is looking forward to busy days this summer. With the Great Northern, C.P.R. and Canadian' Northern touching Hope it is bound to become a place of considerable importance. It has good naturaliSjirroundings for tourists and sportsmen and is near the coast cities. Messrs. Gibson and Wardle combine all the qualities for successful business management and leave Princeton with the best wishes of a host of friends. As soon as the plans are received tenders will be called for the erection of the general hospital. THE WEEKLY GRIST Glorious Springtime: Flowers, Birds and Green Hills Are Here.

He died intestate. DEATH CAUSED BY ACUTE BKIGHT'S DISEASE. ' The sudden death of James Campbell, miner and prospector, on Saturday last, removes a famiiar figure from our midst. He had been ailing for some time but had never sought medical advice until the night previous to his death. Of a robust constitution he little thought his illness was so serious and death so near. Dr. Lazier was summoned and found him suffering from acute Bright's disease. Having done all that was possible to re- REAL NAME MUST ACCOMPANY LETTER. A communication has been received by the Star, which cannot be published, because of the neglect of the writer to affix name to.tbe article. Star will be pleased to publish any letter ot public interest so long as the simple rule of appending the real name of the author of the article is observed. The name attached to the article may be real or fictitious, it matteis not to the publisher, but the author must accompany the letter with his name as a matter of good faith and for reference and protection in the event of libel. Where personal reflections and insinuations are made Star will insist on the writer's name being published. PLAY BALL, OR ANY OLD GAME. It is well known that a lot of good ball 'timber' is simply 'running to seed,' as the rubes say, for want of a little action. Princeton has always had a baseball team and if this season is allowed to pass without one it will sound rather badly for the mineral metropolis of the Similkameen. It has been usual to celebrate Victoria Day, (24th May) with a game and other sports thrown in. It is only a short time to the day and no time should be lost. Boys, are you going to allow your town to develop into a sort of Sleepy Hollow? Play ball! flim-Dalby and A. W. Elliott of Vic- Srjrfwere visitors to Princeton last week.

Ever since Star first knew him as purser on a flat boat running into Fort Benton he has been prophesying, invariably painting the future in glowing colors. He saw many years ago the great possibilities of the Northwest and with that happy optimism which has saved him in many a financial squeeze and discouragement, kept right on 'sawing wood' when other people were busy knocking and calling him all sorts of names. In the beginning he was industrious and economical and these qualities coupled with go6d, hard sense have made him the railroad king of the continent and great authority on present labor and commercial problems. When Mr. Hill discovered the 'Jimhilkameen' valley he was quick to see its possibilities and at once he determined to lay 'hands on the railway charter which was then going a-begging. His wisdom has never been questioned on the construction of a railroad into the Similkameen and on to the coast. The enormous coal and ore tonnage alone to develop here was conclusive enough to a man of Mr. Hill's foresight. He has built and is building the line without a dollar of bonus or any governmental assistance whatsoever. If it were not for the vast resources and the undoubtedly bright future of the Similkameen Mr. Hill's prophetic vision would have fallen far short of expending some $14,000,000, the amount already spent in construction. Now, if this country is good enough for a man who is in no sense a wildcatter, it ought surely to be good enough for any investor who is willing to give the matter intelligent consideration. Mr. Hill has private investments in Princeton district, outside of the railway, and his good judgment cannot be controverted by the most strenuous knocker. Thus, and in many other respects, he may be considered a true prophet, high priest of progress and railway king. ceiled on the editor's desk. It is a welcome annual visitor to the Star, containing much valuable information in addition to the description of no less than 7,751 copper mines and copper mining companies in all parts of the world.
