Delay in Construction and Operation Not fault of Company—Will Soon Make Cement. [Continued from last week.] Directors' Report. Vancouver, B. C, Dec. 31, 1912.—To the Shareholders of the British Columbia Portland Cement Company, Limited. I herewith take pleasure in piesent- ing to you the Third Annual Report of this Company and the Financial State ment as transmitted by the Treasurer. At the First meeting of the Directors held after the Annual Shareholders meeting in February, the following 083 cers were re-elected: J. A. Harvey, K.C., |/*>resident; L W. Shatford, M. P.P., VicS ■ President, C. R. Briggs, Secretary ana [ Treasurer. 'At the same meeting an Exel cutive Committee was appointed by the Directors, composed of the following: L ' W. Shatford, Chairman; I. A. Harvey, R. P. McLennan, B C. Alexander, and <f\ R Briggs. During the year the Directors held Five meetings and the Executive Five Meetings. Sound Financing. The Principal business coming before the Executive Officers for their action during the year has been largely that of finances, as practically all arrangements have been completed concerning the con struction of our works and ordering of necessary machinery. Notwithstanding the tightness of the money market, during the past year, the Treasurer's report shows that $130,484.00, was collected from Subscriptions to Bonds and Stock, making a total collected since our oagan- ization of $231,577.00. In addition t<* money paid in by Subscribers, we have s.cured from bank advances an additional $30,000. The bank has been securtf ed t>y the personal guarantee of the Dp reciors Through new banking arrange* mt-nts completed during the vear, we\ no v have a line of credit amounting jto practically $50,000.00. We have also increased the amount of subscriptions to our Bonds and Stock from $255,000,00 to $338.5.00.00. This was made necessary troiii the fact that the adjoining Coal Company has not been in a position to 111 . t their proportion of tbe cost of the railway spur amounting to more than $3'.> o 10.00, and also to the fact that it has been impossible to make certain collections, owing to the failure in business of some of our subscribers. As soon as the money from the Coal Company is paid in, it can be used as working capital or it can be used towards the costjpf securing additional machinery to increase the capacity of our plant. I need not elaborate on the disbursements made during the year as they are set forth in detail in the Treasurer's report. Continued on page 5. CORRECTING FALSE REPORTS- tor Star—Sir; I wish to correct otne erroneous impressions that seem to have found circulation in your vicinity concerning the B. C. Portland Cement' Company, Limited, On account of the lack of time on my part, I have delayed sending you this communication. The. cement company has no real estate for sale aud depends entirely upon the saje of its bonds and stock for its capital to build the plant. The annual report of the company which has recently been circulated in your vicinity, stated distinct ly the reason for the unavoidable delay, that has occured in the completion of our works. Our directors have coneid- ered it best to go slow and play safe, especially as we now haye a stringency iti the money market. The report that the securities have been sold for fifty per cent of their face value is entirely untrue and not a dollar's worth has been sold for less than par. ■ If there is any parties in or around Princeton who have been offering these securities for 50 or 75 cents on the dollar we shall be pleased to find parties who will purchase all that they have to offer. As a requisite to secure a posilion in our company, no one has been asked to buy any real estate either in East Princeton or the Old town, by myself or any of the officers of the company. In order that our employees can give us their best services we will naturaily want them to live as near our factory as possible, as their efficiency would be greatly lessened if they had to walk several miles every day to and from their employment. Proper provisions will no doubt be made for the proper housing of our employees for their best comforts and convenience. Regarding certain mis statements that were made concerning the sale of East Jprinceton lots and contigious industrial [enterprises of the Similkameen country, I think the recent article which appeared iu your paper, under the signature of Mr. F. C. Porter, manager of the Peace River Realty Co. will be sufficient to cover anything in connection with the company There is no reason why any mis-statements should be made concerning the number of our employees as it is well known how many we will actually em ploy on the starting of the plant, and the number that will eventually be employed. I will say that the policy of the Cement Company at all times will be to help boost and bnild up your beautiful and thriving region. We shall be glad to take a hand with yonr board of trade or any other civil bcidy to secure for Princeton and vicinity all the business p s.i- ble and to help build up your community financially, morally and intellectually. Yours truly C. R. Briggs, Sec'y Treas. B. C. Portland Cement Co. Limited. LOCAL BRIEFS TERSELY! PARAGRAPHED. ' Spring has Sprung,' the Gentle Zephs Burst the Buds and Kiddies Sigh for Icy Cream. Spring is here all right and so is jack frost at night. Farmers and gard- ners are preparing to get soil in shape for seed and in the next ten days planting will begin in earnest. The season is backward. B. A. Yandall, student engineer and land surveyor with P. W. Gregory, CE. returned from a winter's visit to Vancou-! ver and is now engaged on the field work of tbe Allison addition. Road work and bridge repairing has begun in some parts of the district. The superintendent of roads is expected here shortly and then the season's work, no doubt, will be outlined. This is cleaning up time and all rubbish should disappear from backyards, streets and lanes. The cackle of the hen and the crow of the rooster is heard throughont the land—a case of dormant winter giving place to rejuvenating spring. Wm, Martin, constable during illness of Mr. Rogeis, has been carryiug out the law regarding illicit sale of liquor in blind piggeries and has received in strnctions from Chief Simpson to that effect. According to the Game Act every person using a gun must have a license to carry it. In the case of farmers and prospectors, privileges nnd conditions are extended. LEADVILLE CHUNKS. From Our Own Correspondent. Leadville. March 28.—I hope these chunks will not be as heavy as the ore here nor so unpalatable as to cause mental indigestion. J. C. Edwards has three men at work making air connection to their adit. The freighters failed to get the pipe and furnace through to the mine, which were intended for that purpose, but failed owing to heavy snow drifts. It will be two months before they reach the point where they expect the lode to be found. I hear that the government is going to use $10,000 making a wagon road this way. There are three feet of snow at Railroad creek. A horse could could get over it with 200 lbs. on his back. There is some talk of a company tak ing the Okanagan camp to prospect. It is situate about half way between Leadville and Tulameen. E. C. Rice and M. Rabbitt have got a contract to drive 100 it. on the Indiana, extending the adit from 195 ft. 3 ins., to 300 ft. There are four feet of milling or concentrating galena ore in the face of the adit. About ten feet of snow at the cabin and over seven feet on the average. On my way from the Indiana I called at Treasuse mountain cabin and reported Mr. Rabbitt's condition, who has been sick for three weeks. Contractor Seaman and Mr. Rice will pack the sick man to the Indiana. J. C. Riley put tn a shot in the lode on- the Carbonate claim and took out some- good ore. TOWN AND DISTRICT. L. W. Shatford, M.P.P., and road superintendent Turner are expected here in a few days. They will then take a trip to Europe. W. Wilson returned from Vancouver last week where he spent most of the winter. He reports consideiable interest in the Similkameen by coastites and is of opinion that a campaign of pamphlet distiibution regarding this district would do a lot of good. He thinks that our climate beats the coast 17 ways. Mrs. R. Hewat, now of Fairview and a former esteemed citizen of Princeton, is visiting with Mrs. Lyall. Frank Bailey, M.E., arrived from Vancouver recently where he has been doing good missionary work for this district through the press. The telephone directory compiled by Capt. Hillyer and E. N. Clark has been received and compares well with similar productions. Dick Fitzgerald has returned from his winter's trapping and reports a good catch of fur. The April Fool party in the courthouse last Tuesday evening was well attended and proved a benefit to the hospital that is sure to be appreciated. Chas. Hills, 'Newsy' as he was known in Princeton in the early days, is fast becoming a millionaire in Vancouver and owns three stationery stores there. Well done 'Newsy.' THE WIDE WORLD. Turkey has accepted peace terms and the war ends. J. Pierpont Morgan financier and multimillionaire, passed away at Rome last Monday. The loss by flood in the Ohio is computed at $350,000,000. The total trade of Canada wiM' reach one billion dollars for the financial year ending March 31. Floods in the United States has the effect of sending a large number of imi- migrants to Canada. It is claimed that the blood' of a turdle will cure leprosy and a Frenchman produces evidence of its use centuries ago. 1 fi THE SIMILKAMEEN STAR April 4. 19x3 LOCAL AND GENERAL Mrs. Bowerman, of Hedley, is visiting friends here. Adolph LaRose is at work again in the Princeton Drug and Book store after attending high school at the To- nasket high school. He likes Princeton so well that he will probably settle down here. Miss Francis French, daughter of D. M. French, arrived from Seattle last Wednesday and is staying with parents on Endcliffe Avenue. Billy Knight is pulling through a sick spell nicely and is able to be around and enjoy pleasant, discussive conversations. All oldtimers, of whom he is one, will be glad to see him back to his beloved hammer and drill on the Whipsaw. Neil Thompson was given a sendoff by brother Pythians in their hall Mouday night the occasion being due to his departure for Riverside, Wash. During Mr. Thompson's stay in Princeton he has won the esteen and confidence of citizens generally who wish him and his wife prosperity in their future home. J. J. McDonald, railroad contractor, was iu town yesterday and states that the V., V. & E. construction is making progress and the line as far as Hope will be under contract by next fall.

In the last few years the spirit of pro gress has been greatly manifest. Great strides have been made in all lines. A few years ago electricity was unknown, today we consider it indispensable. For the past fifteen years Chiropractic- Neuropathy has beeu forging ahead. Today it is known very favorably to a limited number of people. The next decade will show its universal adoption as the method pre-eminent for relieving and permanently curing the ailments of mankind. The C -N. Theory is that the causes of diseases are lesions (displacements) of the bony framework, but more especially that of the spinal column, causing the contraction of muscles, which in turn draw and impinge nerves, creating too much or not enough action disease. The Results of Displaced Vertebrae. The nerves are pressed against and the functional energy is either interrupted or impaired, All muscles are made to contract by the subluxation of bones, the displacement is made greater from tbe constant contraction of muscles; the greater the length of time the subluxation exists the greater the displacement. Ninety per ceut, of all disease may be traced to subluxated vertebrae. Be With Us. Join the ranks of the. Chiropractic- Neuropaths. Become a benefactor of humanity. The field is large; tbe amount of good you can do is unlimited.

The completion of our plant during the past year has not been acomplished for several reasons; "First," We were not\able to secure a satisfactory agreement with the Great Northern Railway Company, covering the operation and maintenance of Ihe Spur recently' completed to our works until we had made an appeal to the Board of Railway Com missioners ; "Second." the usual tightness of the money market has made it exceedingly difficult for many of our subscribers to meet their payments promptly as agreed upon. It was not until the middle of June that a satisfactory agreement with the Great Northern Railway Company was signed up and the laying ofthe track to our works was not completed by the Railway Company, until the middle of August. With these handicaps in view, the. Directors decided to proceed with the completion of the buildings and the installment of the machinery only as fast as the neces sary funds could be obtained. We have proceeded with the utmost caution, keeping the expenses down to a minimum, paying for all materials as pur chased and fulfilling our contract obligations for machinery as we had agreed upon. I wish to call your special attention to the fact that the Company has no other revenue than payments received from the sale of our Securities, consequently delinquent subscribers have been repeatedly urged to pay up as fast as possible in order that the final complet ion of our works might not be unnecessarily delayed. The work in connection with the collection of funds has been no small matter, when it is considered that we now have about 275 shareholders in the Company. When unpaid balances on subscriptions are fully met, we should have ample funds to fully .quip our plant' and furnish sufficient working capital. Continued on page 5.

If a contribution be made toward the British navy one of the conditions should be the removal of the unfair and discriminative embargo on Canadian cattle going to Britain. Even handed justice is all that is asked. For years there has been no case of contagious disease among Canadian cattle yet they are under the ban of such stringent regulations in the old country that our export trade in beef cattle suffers heavy loss. Now, Mr. Borden, dicker a little with J.B. for the aid you purpose giving and remove the scandalous embargo. .Jsp The warring suffragettes forget their sex in their eagerness to gain votes for women. They had better make haste slowly and cut out the sensational pranks that have gained them nauseous notoriety. While the cause of woman suffrage is most worthy and deserving it will not help the cause to resort to needless acts of violence and lawbreak- ing. On the basis of equal rights and equality of creation woman can no longer be relegated to the positions of a menial and slavish obeisance to those who would be her lord and master. Liberty, not chains, are her. birthright. It is the barbarous and inhuman in men which treat them as being inferior and incapable of regulating the evils of their own sex. Premier McBride could win no more enduring monument than to prociaim votes ^or women and that emancipation which will result in contentment and progress. Remember, the world moves. Hon. Winston Churchill admits that the navy building race is a senseless craze and blunder and in the same breath asks for more money to perpetuate this wicked folly. If he had been in earnest in his professed anxiety tor peace he would have reduced the building program by at least one battleship. But he made an unstatesmanlike proposal to Germany and the other powers to 'take a holiday' and the result is the press of Europe and the Similkameen are poking fun at him. As a high minded and courageous statesman should do, why did he The birth of a newspaper always is a matter of interest to brethren of the quill who extend greetings to the progenitors and a hearty welcome to the infant. The B.C. Property Gazette, of Mission City,B.C., is the latest exchange on our list and its appearance indicates that it! will cater to the news affecting real estate and business generally. It! apparently eschews politics and has; no editorial department. As Mis-j sion City is a town of about 1500 population and already has a good newspaper, the Record, it is difficult to understand the call, for another. Success to the Gazette. Law is good when properly enforced and carried out, otherwise it is a fai_e. The people elect legislators or lawmakers who exercise their individual and collective wisdom in framing laws. When these laws are administered impartially, without prejudice, fear or favor, a wholesome effect is noticed in the social life of the country. If the judiciary and the administrative officials perform their duties fairly no citizen can object and the community is benefited. Every law- abiding person will rejoice to see the laws enforced, the offenders and law-defying elements in any community alone feel them irksome and annoying. It is an unfavorable reflection on the capability of Canadians to settle their appeal lawsuits outside of the country. It is as if they said, we cannot trust our own supreme court, the privy council of England is our last and only hope of justice. Leaving out the questions of convenience and expense in carrying a case of appeal before the privy council it is enough to condemn the practise if for no other reason than that of. national dignity. It will not encourage a sentiment of self respect and manly independence in the rising generation when they learn that although we are able to make our own laws we are scarcely competent to interpret them in a court of finality. Surely, out of seven millions of people qualified judges may be found to constitute a court of last appeal, instead of which the learned gentlemen ot the privy council now eke out justice, although they may have no intimate knowledge of the people or the country. The court of last resort should be free from any charge of fogey ism or senility, yet it is almost certain that future generations of Canadians will smile broadly at the idea of taking legal cases to the old country for decision. The necessity for remedy is apparent. B.C. Portland Cement Co* East Princeton, B. C. zSfr ___?p w ********J>***4-1 1 I m *t* ^^Mi^^B^^^^^^^^^^^^m t I t Y I *r Y Y Y 1 T T f 1 1 *%* 1 f *> B.C.

From Page 3. Cement in Big Demand. It is gratifying to know that the Railway Spur is completed and in operation, that all buildings are finishe<L-the foundations for machinery laid aud nearly four-fifths of the machinery installed It is fully expected by the first of April that the balance ofthe machinery will all be in position and the plant will be in full operation not later than May first. This will give us a splendid chauce to get our share of the spring trade, and from present prospects we should be .able to sell every barrel of Cement that can be turned out by the plant. The Customs report for 1912 shows th_t British Columbia imported about 400,000 barrels of Cement during June, July, August, Septem ber and October. The demand for Ce ment will be much larger during 1913, than it was during 1912, and as the initial output of our plant will be considerably less than 200,000 barrels we should have no trouble in placing the entire output in this Province. I am sure that with the hearty co-operation and support of our numerous Shareholders, we should have an unlimited field for the sale of our product, and at remunerative prices. During the past year the Secretary and Treasurer Mr. C R. Briggs, has again had entire charge ofthe Office and general affairs of the Company, under the direction and approval of the Executive Officers. Mr. W. J. Budd has had charge of the construction work at the plant, according to previous contract. The Directors of the Coinpauy have given considerable of their valuable time to the affairs of the Company aud that without remuneration. I would strongly advise as far as possible that all Shareholders visit our works aud see for themselves what has been accomplished. I would further point out to you that a careful atudy of the Treasurer's repor will show, I think, conservative and steady growth of the Company's affai.s over last year's statement I am confident that at the close af the coming year, that a ver}' successful business will be shown by the.Company.

BEAVER TRAPPING. Chief Game Warden A. Bryan-Williams has reported to the Attorney-General's Department that, owing to the season for beaver being open last year and the number of pelts placed on the market large, it was deemed advisable to declare another close season until November 15 next. An exception was, however, made in favor of the Indians on tbe Stikine, Liard and Peac_ rivers. While it was as well to be on the safe side it appears that the number of beaver trapped last season was by no means larger than the supply warranted. Numerous complaints have been received of damage done by beaver to Tarm lands. In some cases, these have been found upon investigation to have been simply excuses to those who wish to trap, but in a majority of instances, the complaints were found well founded, and trapping permits accordingly issued, the invariable conditions being that one-third of the price realized- from the sale of the pelts should go to the government. As the provincial stock of beaver is now larger than necessary, it is intended that trapping shall be again allowed when the present order-m-council expires on November 15 next. HENRY I.

GOATS IN DEMAMp^ During the past few months the Live Stock Branch of the Dominion Depart ment of Agriculture has been in receipt of numerous inquiries as to where it might be possible to purchase either Angora or Milch goats. It would appear that in mauy parts of the Dominion the demand for these useful and profitab'e animals is rapidly developing and that those who at present have any surplus stock can find a ready sale for them if a channel of communication between supply and demand is established. Accordingly, as a means of starting a convenient Directory of Canadian Breeders of Angora Goats and Milch Goats, the Live Stock Commissioner will be pleased to receive from such breeders information regarding their respective flocks covering the following points: 1.—Kind and number of goats kept. 2.—Usual number for sale each year. 3.—Approximately the prices asked. If possible a brief statement regarding expenses found necessary and the returns which may be expected by one engaging in raising this class of stock. Communications supplying the above information should be addressed to the Live Stock Commissiouer, Ottawa, Ont. Such letters do not require postage. _A________.__A____AAAA . •VVVVVVY_WtVVVVW**4*W******!s*********.~*T **P * ...Hotel.. Oiler Fin TULAMEEN, B.C. Good Fishing, Boating Mining Center Mrs. t J.
