Thomas Taylor Says Appropriations Will Be Larger -"5 fi-Sj! \ ih The Minister of Works, when in Vancouver recently, stated that the increasing influx of settlers to British Columbia and the development in progress contiguous to lines of railway now under construction would probably result in larger appropriations than ever next year for roads, trails and bridges. Th:. estimates for the current year devoted $5,226,000 to those pur-, poses, in addition to $3,000,000 for public buildings.

When wo take .into consideration that a goodly portion 6f the beef from that country, -after going by way of Ashcroft to Vancouver, finds its way on to the marksts of the- Northern Coast, it will "be easily seen that by the Bella Coola route, not only would the- railroad journey be eliminated, the sea voyage reduced by i more than half, but the drive over-land would also be shortened considerably; this means that the i loss of weight would be reduced to a minimum. Perhaps the people of Bella Coola, now that the >ailroad is practically assured, consider that the need for a good wagon-road through the Valley to connect with the existing road at Tatla Lake, is no longer as urgent as formerly. We would remind them that railroad or no. railroad a good wagon-road is absolutely essential, and'not a road terminating halfway up the valley, but a road that will enable the settlers right through to Tatla.Lake and beyond to use the. onjy natural outlet for their produce. '' Our correspondent hits the mark when he asks the question -"Has it struck you that, for the past few years, "the bulk of- the appropriation has heen^per.t in changing a mile*or so of it (the 'road)'every year?" ��� Has Mr. Marvin cvec stopped to think who has been responsible for this? . ' ��� Some would perhaps suggest the superintendantof roads. But what of Mr. Marvin himself and his co-settlers? who, almost'to a man are members of the Atnarko Conservative Clubhand as, such have repeatedly gone to the polls and shown their appreciation, oi and satisfaction with the treat- ��� - / ment they have received from the Government and its officials. ��� - *Has ��he Atnarko Conservative * , .,,.�� i. .

What of the $30,000 or so, supposed to be ��� spent 'this year ? Could not a considerable portion of this sum been spent to good purpose in the Upper Valley ? Maybe it was. ' But we think not, ot else from whence arises Mr. Marvin's complaint. ' We have a r.oad roller lying be- v- * , y side the road down here, although not a single jml,e. is -ready vfor. rolling. This roller has been here for the belter part of' the summer and cannot be used-before next May or June, if then. Would not' the cost of this roller (estimated in the" neighborhood of $3000) have been put to better use in the Upper Valley. Not in changing a mile or two of frail (as Mr. Marvin'states has been done in the past,) but in making a piece of permanent' road in the right place. The "Courier" represents a party in Eelja Coola who have always been strongly in favor of connecting up with the Tatla Lake road, but events have proved that the party in the confidence of the Government has not used its influence to any extent in that direction, and this is the party that Mr. Marvin and hir; co-settlers support. Mr. Marvin wants a "thumping big appropriation" and we t,ay it is both badly required and richly deserved in his locality. Bui chould not he and his friends have interested themselves in the past in seeing that this system of "tinkering" was put a stop to, and that value was received at anyrate for the small amounts that were spent?
