Manson, M.P.P., on the occasion of his recent visit, dwelt long and wearisomely on the great credit due hinrin having secured for his district something approaching a fair amount in appropriations for public works, and how he assured them of his ability to obtain an' even larger appropriation for next year. Will he be able to do it ? True, the government has in recent years been expending money lavishly, but to what extent the country has profited by that expenditure is another matter entirely. One effect of .this lavish expenditure has been, that the government has thereby kept itself in power, and that seems to have been the main object of the expenditure. It is an indisputable fact that the greater portion of the revenue of the. last few years has been derived from the sale of timber and lands, and even the present administration must recognize some limit to such exploitation of the natural resources of the province. It was perhaps the recognition of this fact which impelled Sir Richard McBride to pay a visit to London to arrange financial matters, at a time when his presence was so urgently re- uired at home. Be that as it may, the following is significant, and is certainly enough to set any ordinary minded person thinking seriously: *'No Money." Such was the reply received by Dr. Calahan, one of the members for the Cariboo, when on learning that all public works in that district had suddenly been ordered stopped by a telegram from Victoria, and this at a time when only 40 per cent, of the appropriation voted at the last session of the Legislature had been expended, he (the Doctor), filled with right eous indignation, wired to Victoria asking the reason why. o o o o o What has become of the big surplus? ��������� Why have taxes increased three to five hundred per cent? Why did the government vote the money and then four-flush? 7 These are some of the. pertinent questions asked by the people of Cariboo, who now feel that they'have been ���������bluffed and' buncoed ; and they surely have been. ��������� o o o o o i ' Sir Richard went to London filled with the ambitious hope of raising money, probably so as to be able to encourage another railroad scheme and so.win another election at an early date. o o o o o Members of the government made no. secret of the fact that an early election might be expected. o c o o ���������' o That was before it was known that Sir Richard had failed to make the necessary raise. Now we hear from Attorney-General Bowser that the government is decided on serving its full term and that there will be no election in the near future. o o o p o Can it be that the government is "broke," and is determined to hang oh in the hope that' some- thing may .turn up, whereby it may be able to reimburse its depleted treasury? o.oo o ������������������ o ' There still remains a little more land to sell. Will .they sell it? o o o o o If the government is forced to" adopt a policy of retrenchment and accordingly reduces appropriations, what of Bella Coola's uncompleted wagon road? " o o o o o Many will be the regrets of the local Conservatives that they have for so long tolerated the reckless and wasteful expenditure in the district; for after all, have they not repeatedly expressed themselves in favor of it in the most emphatic and effectual manner���������by their votes at the poll. riched the province and have made living cheaper and better for every individual in it, the government chose to make their road building program serve their party activities instead of the good of the province. As a result there has been practically no honest effort to give the country the means of communication of which it is so much in need, and; which would contribute so, materially to its development and progress. o o o o o Instead of pursuing a policy that would have settled and en- Editor, Bella Coola Courier. . j Sir���������.:, .' : ���������.: ';���������" ^ ��������������������������� Since I was prevented attending the Hagensborg meeting of October 2nd; by the usual trouble, that is, slow communications, postal and otherwise, I should like to beg once more the hospitality of your paper to enumerate a few points about the road, some of which were not considered at the meeting, and in; this way I hope to partly make, up for the lack of representation we chronically suffer in the upper part of the valley. The valley has been recognized as a settlement for twenty years. It is now" possible to haul some freight to the . end of the road, about 36 miles, just a trifle over 1 1-2 miles a year. Or, if you prefer, start from the fall of 1905, as the more substantial apr propriations date from that year on. A settler could then haul his supplies as "far as the Crossing. Now in the fall of 1913, the same settler may haul it 12 miles further, showing a progress on the road of about 11-2 miles a year. It is the avowed arid reiterated intention, of the Government to help the settler all it can. With this in mind and the fact that still twenty-five miles of road separate the settlers of the Upper Valley from the actual, end of the road, it results that at the rate we'have been going for the past twenty years we shall be about seventeen years in getting it.up here. The first thing the settler needs is to be able to get to'his ranch all the supplies and, provisions he cannot raise on the spot, together with the tools and agricultural implements that are necessary to clear and cultivate the land. Everybody knows that nothing much bigger than a coal oil box can generally be packed on an ordinary pack-horse except at a great expenditure of time or money. Therefore we must have a road of some kind. We should be satisfied with a sleigh road for the first year or so, provided it would come through all at once so as to enable the two ends to meet. In this way we could haul, even painfully and slowly at first, but haul nevertheless, our supplies in winter, (with.the help of the snow and at the slack time of work when our horses are eating their heads off, practically inactive.) We have been waiting for ten years to get something better than a bad pack trail and we have been helped, as I have demonstrated before, at the rate of one mile and a half per annum. Is that fair? It is said that most of the appropriation for the road this year was to be spent in the Upper Valley. It is further/said that $10,000 were actually spent above the Kahylstriver(Burnt Bridge). How far did this $10,000 help the settlers of the Upper Valley towards getting theirsupplieshome by other ways than pack-horses? Just ONE MILE AND A HALF. A good sled road, where even a wagon could be taken along, could be made for $1000 a mile on the average. This year's appropriation could have brought relief half way up the Upper Valley, and if the road, would be put in the right place once and for ever, it could easily be improved year by year by the increasing traffic and settlers. Somebody remarked tome that the road is needed to pack up supplies for the workmen that build the road. Many roads have been rapidly opened up with the help of a pack-train. .More expensive? , Perhaps. But if the Government cannot afford to use pack-horses for one year (and it should not take more to push through a good sled road twenty- five miles) can the settlers afford to use them for eighteen years more? ��������� I heard that at a convention of road superintendents in Prince- Rupert, this year, it was estimated the work to connect Bella Coola road and Tatla Lake would run into $1,700,000 expenditure. Our local superintendent declared a few days ago that he built 25 miles of road at a cost of about $2,000 a mile. Even calculating theexisting 35 miles as all road, there remains, more or less, about 100 miles to link these two points. One hundred miles at $2,000 per mile equals $200,000. Who's wrong? The 25 miles of road wanted for the Upper Valley would cost only $50,000. This is cheap if we consider the good it would do.. v We must endeavor to attract the attention of the public in general, to the wrongs either of the system of working but these appropriations or to the faults of the executive officers of the administration.., Get the total amount of appropriations since the start and divide by 35, the number of miles of so called road now open. That will be a sure estimate of the cost in the past. Stick up for a proper compe- tentand independent survey from the .outside, that will cut down thousands of dollars of mistakes in the future. Persuade the Government that the present system, besides being ruinous and unfair to all parties, does not attain the end for which it is supposed to work, that is to help the settler. So long as the road does not connect with Tatla Lake it is simply a road to nowhere.

This, together with the Upper Valley settlers would form an aggregate of about forty or fifty settlers whom the road would benefit directly, besides opening the way for many more. Is that not enough to justify a sleigh road to link the two districts the first year. The finished road could then be built in business-like style, without leaving any gaps between, (vide: Neswald-Ham- | mer tract, Firvale fi.-.i.
