THE BOARD OF TRADE
Trail to Steamboat Subject of
Further Correspondence
with Member.
Public Buildings, Live Question, will
f>e pressed to Conclusion—Map
of District.
The postponed meeting of the board of
trade was held  Monday night, at which
matters of much  importance to Princeton wete discussed and advanced.   Com
munications were read as follows :
From Martin Burrell, M. P., re public
buildings for Dominion government
. ffices in Priuceton. Mr. Burrell pointed out the difficulty of securing appropriations for towns in B.C., while in the
eastern provinces small places had more
generous treatment. In his interviews
with the hon. minister of customs and
postmaster-general he pointed out the
growing importance of Princeton and its
commanding position. He stated that
courteous and attentive hearing was
given him and there the matter rested.
The secretary was instructed to thank
Mr. Burrell. Princeton public buildings
is a 'live wire' proposition and the government has two courses : either pleasantly concede the 'modest request or
suffer interminable worry and possible
downfall.
From Hon. Edgar Dewdney, enclosing
letter from the Hon. W. Pugsley, minister of public works, Ottawa, re public
buildings in Princeton. The~boa*d acknowledged—hrctebtedness. to the Hon.
gentleman for his kindly interest in this
matter and was tendered thanks.
From L. W. Shatford, M.P.P., re road
wotk in this district to be placed in this
year's estimates.
From Princeton Drug & Book Co.,
account.   Paid.
From Vancouver board of trade re
circulars addressed to provincial and
federal governments regarding settlers
for agricultural lands in the railway belt
and other parts, and respectfully lequest-
ing cooperation of Princeton board.
The secretary was instructed to write
L. W. Shatford, M.P.P., urging appro
priation of $2,000 to make a good trail
from Princeton to Steamboat mining
camg. The excellent grazing and prospecting on virgin ground afforded by
this route will induce large numbers to
favor this route in preference to any
other. Stringers have been already laid
across Cambie creek to facilitate early
spring construction of the trail.
The thanks of the board were tendered
Secretary Groffman for a spleneid map of
Princeton district and outlining proposed
trail to Steamboat. On request of board
W. C.  McDougall kindly  consented  to
have the map lithographed for printing
and advertising purposes.
A hearty vote of thanks was presented
to H. H. Ave.y, the retiring secretary for
1910.
First Annual Report.
Following is the first annual report of
the Princeton  board  of trade presented
by the retiring president for past year :
To the members of Princeton board of
trade—Gentlemen :   I beg to present
to you  a syuoptical report covering
the existence of the board fiotn its
fonndation on  Nov.  28; ioo... to the
present time ;_also toyoflerafifw sug
gestions regarding membership and
general business or the board :
First, allow me to briefly state some of
the functions and scope of what are generally construed  as belonging to a board
of trade.   The membership usually con
sists of men who take  an active interest'
in the commercial, trade and  industrial1
conditions of the community.   They are
alert on auy question   affecting the   pro
gress or   betterment  of the town or city
in which they resi le.   If they are alive
to their own interests and the prosperity.
of the  town    they  will  cheerfully  and
promptly contribute toward the maintenance of any   institution  or enterprise
which has for its aim  or tendency the
advancement   ot   the  community   as a
whole.
Union is Strength.
It   is   only    by citizens uniting in a
board of trade  or  other similar institution, maintaining a firm attitude in rela
tion to their rights, that governments and
large corporations   can  be  made to understand and feel the necessity for granting their   requests.     In unity   there is
force, success, power ; iu division, weak
ness, failure.   Thoughtless and irresponsible  persons make boards of trade the
butt of sarcasm and drivelling criticism
but these have no weight or effect where,
good results are obtained.   Far better for
these same individuals to become members, or  if already  so,  to  be regular in
attendance and assist in the advancement
of  the  town  and   district.     While we
are without municipal organization every
person,   whether   resident   in   town   or
country, should join and swell the mem
bership to at least one hundred, provid
ing ample revenue for all purposes.
Board of Trade Necessary.
Any subject of business importance
whether of local or national concern,
properly comes within the scope of the
board, and it is of much usefulness in
obtaining appropriations for public works
voicing grievances and presenting to the
federal and provincial governments the
needs of the community. Their non-
political character afford- absolute freedom for any member to express views on
legislative questions without political
animus   or bias and it is this indepen-

$2,000,000 to be Spent in Proposed
Works—Cement Company to
Begin Now.
One has only to be observant to note
the evidences of a new era of progress
in aud around Princeton. Various industries, involving large expenditures,
are now being financed for actual operations. A gentleman with large investments in this section writes Star as follows . ' I doubt not that there will be in
the neighborhood of $2,000,000 spent in
new development in and about your city
this coming year.'
The Princeton Coal & Land Co., Osoyoos Coal Co., United Empire Coal Co.
Chilliwack-Princeton Coal Co., and the
Princeton Collieries Co. are all shaping
for increased output or, as in the case of
two or three of them, are waiting for
railway connection.
The British Columbia Portland Cement
Co. is in readiness to begin construction as soon as J. W. Budd, who has been
retained by this Co. to erect the plant, is
on the. ground.—This company could now
sell the product of a iooobbl. plant and
for two years to come if they were running. The railroad bridge and spur to
the cement works will be started as soon
as the weather will permit. Tenders will
soon be called for clearing East Princeton townsite and cutting saw logs, R.
Cross having charge of this work.

WILL DREDGE RIVERS.
Messrs. Fry,and Tener arrived last
week fronf Vancouver and are awaitiug
the arrival of machinery with which to
begin proving gold and platinum placer
grouud on their leaseholds in the Tula
meen and Similkameen rivers. At first
they will use a Key^to__jnlji_____rdrilll
after which they will nse the style of
dredge best adapted for the ground.
Mr. Fry is an experienced placer miner
and has met with success iu the Cariboo
gold fields. Colors of gold and platinum
are readily found in the rivers and headwaters and a great dredging industry is
likely to follow the experiments of these
pioneets.
LOCAL AND GENERALC^ ?   ?
T. F. Waddell has built a lar^O^r* I
house on Kenley Av., which will be ready

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The advent of the Kettle Valley
Railway into the Similkameen is
among the most important projects
for the year for the development of
the district. As will be observed
by the advertisement of this company power is asked to construct
and continue the line from Allison
or Princeton to Granitjk Creek,
where there is expedfb_T'to be a
large tonnage in coal0_nd coke. It
would be  difficuW-'-O overestimate
it  mus/Vollow the
the^l/etfle   Valley
tracj; of- productive
between Princeton
and Okanagan lake will be opened
up to settlement and given the
transportation needed for encouragement of farming, mining or
other industrial enterprise. In the
Fivemile section through which the
line passes the dairying and sheep-
raising possibilities are practically
without limit. No better butter is
made in all the world than this section produces, the pasturage, climate and water being ideal. The
Onemile section has been already
proven rich in mixed farming, coal
and cement deposits. Here, tbe
manufacture of cement is expected
to begin this year. Granite creek
and Princeton coal will undoubtedly
find a large demand in tbe (.kanaka towns where wood fuel is now
scarce and expensive. A large tonnage is assured the Kettle Valley
Toad the  moment it  is  completed.

dence which carries weight with the gov
ernment and enables them to arrive at a
fair conclusion. And I here repeat that
there is no local institution that can be
made so effective in the work of upbuild
ing a town as the board of trade.
Organized effort can accomplish much
with individual effort* to supplement and
it is this unity which brushei aside all
obstacles to progress.
The spirit of compromise and forbearance must pervade the membership of
any institution since all men cannot
tnink alike, and that spirit will make for
stability and progress. I look forward
to the time when • remolding our consti
tution women may be invited to mem-
bership-and share in the deliberations of
the board. In old and very conservative
countries greater latitude is afforded the
gentler sex and the mayoress and female
councillors result. In their harmonizing
and refining inflnence, public-spirited-
ness and enthusiasm tbey excel. Their
interests, social and pecuniary, warrant
a wider sphere for them. The argument
advanced so frequently that women are
not mentally equal with men is disproved
every day and is largely bugaboo.

The Merry Musician company played
to a good house last Thursday night and
gave every satisfaction. Mr. Eckhardt
is a versatile actor and a host in himself.
Miss George sang well but no one knew
whether it was Greek or Hindustani.
Mr. Greigg recites well, receiving prolonged applause and Miss Repine .sang
and played nicely.

A feature of the masquerade ball that
was unintentionally omitted last issue of

fling by little Miss Cunningham to the
music of the bagpipes played by ber-
uncle. Piper Forsyth. Very gracefully
and correctly the little girl danced to the
excellent music, winning the prolonged
applause of spectators.
