No. 1.\nIAN NEEDED IT TDRTJpROt\nBOTH THBS PROVINCIAL AND FEDERAL GOVERN M FNTS ARE DILATORY IN MATTER OF GRAVE RESPONSIBILITY.\nFort George is in grave need o\u00C2\u00A3ia resident physician. The need is becoming more pressing day by\nday, and the demands of the people for a doctor\nmore obiously justified.\n Even during the present month several examples o'n'n\u00E2\u0084\u00A2iess'TFrit^\"4U\u00E2\u0080\u009E,,nxesence of a doctor here\nmight have alleviated before senous^inplfealJCinA,\nhad set in have resulted in grave danger to life.\nThe case of Surveyor 0. B. N. Wilkie, who now\nlies in a most critical condition in the Kamloop's\nhospital with an absess in the throat, brought on\nby a case, of tonsi litis, and that of Engineer Daly,\nof the Steamer Chilco, who was obliged to leave\nhere on the last boat for Quensel to obtain medical attention for a case of blood poisoning, are.\ninstances of the consequences which might be'\navoided by the presence of a physician here.\nThe Dominion Government is receiving a report\nfrom Indian Agent McAllan on the requirements\nof the Indians here from a medico. We believe\nthat there is not twenty-five per cent of the Indians on Reserve No. 1, here who are not in need of\n, a physician's services for some malady or other,\nand we trust that Mr. McAllan will report in favor\nof a Federal subsidy to provide for the medical\ncare of the Indians, and so assist the support of a\ndoctor in Fort George.\nThe Provincial Government omitted Fort George\nfrom the estimates for the present fiscal year\nwhen granting subsidies for \"Hospitals and Charities\" although a grant of $500 was allowed for\nQuensel, and of $300 for Fraser Lake, and it is to\nbe urged that this oversight be remedied by the\nimmediate action of the Government resulting in\nprovision for a medical man here in the very near\nfuture.\nThe prospect of over three hundred men, women\nand children practically marooned over one hundred miles from a doctor seems too appalling, yet\nthat will be the sense of the situation after the\nseason of navigation closes unless the authorities\nawaken to a sense of their responsibilities before\nthat time.\n\"BRUCE\" STARTS SOMETHING\nEDIiOR OF SATURDAY SUNSET ENTERS\nARENA OF CONFLICT WITH\nSATURDAY NIGHT.\nThe Saturday Sunset of August 13th, contained\nthe observations and prognostications of John P.\nMcConnell, written under the non de plume of\n\"Bruce,\" who spent a week here last month\nBruce absorbed some very positive ideas during\nhis week's stay in Fort George, which may be oi\ninterest to some of liis Similkameen readers who\ndon't know much about the subject, but to the\npeople of South Fort George who represent about\nfour-fifths of the population of this place today his\narticles are more or less a joke.\nThe object of Bruce's article was apparently to\nshow that Toronto Saturday Night has willfully\nmaligned the Natural Resources Security Company;\nthat the Indian reserve is unfit for townsite purposes, and that the Natural Resources Security\nCompany have the only sure-thing townsite proportion in this vicinity..\nWe beg to differ.\nWe have devoted some space elsewhere to our\nopinion of Saturday Night's articles with regard to\nFort. George, yet we have avoided giving any opinion for or against the townsites of the Natural\nResources Security Company. Why? Because as\nyet these townsites are principally stump-littered\navenues through the virgin timber -behind the\nIndian reserve; what they will be two years from\nnow remains to be seen, and we believe that on the\nsettlement of the Indian reserve question their\nfate largely depends.\nThe Natural Resources Security Company, have\n.acquired the name \"Fort George.\" What's in a\nname? Very much in this particular instance.\nBruce quotes with indignation the following excerpt from Saturday Night:\n\"The real townsite of Fort George belongs to\nthe Grand Trunk Pacific, and the Natural Resour-\n\u00C2\u00ABtx\u00C2\u00BB Security Company, never will own a foot of it,\nCONTINUKD ON FOURTH VAGH.\nSOUTH FORT ^ORGEj_C., AUGUST 20, 1910.\nS3 per Annum\nTHE IBET ffiDIE\nA DESCRIPTION, GIVING ACREAGE, LOCATION AND DEVELOPMENT WORK OF\nVARIOUS SUB-DIVISIONS.\nThe various subdivision at Fort''George today\ntotal an area of about thirl&n hundred and seventy\nacres on the point of land formed by the,junction\nof the Fraser and Nechaco rivers. The subdivisions with their respective acreage are owned\n_ as follows: The South J^;t.. Jkft^R-.te'iYnS'i'Cp',\".\nowned\" by tne Northern Development Company,\ncomprising the Hamilton tudTappage additions, of\nabout 147 acres, situated about forty chains south\nof the Indian reserve, and immediately south of\nthe, Hudson Bay Company's property. Adjoining\nthis .townsite to the south lies'the Collins-addition,\na strip of eighty acres of land owned by the Mercantile Trust Company, of Vancouver. Commencing at the Nechaco river front, immediately adjoining the Indian reserve of thirteen hundred and\nsixty-six acres, on its >.:est boundary begin the\nholdings of the Natural Resources Security Com-\npeny, registered as the townsites of Fort George,\nCentral Fort George, and the McGregor addition.\nTheir various lots, as sub-divided, cover an area of\nabout eleven hundred and fifty acres.\nOn none of these sub-divisions has development\nwork been done with the exception of the Northern Development and the Natural Resources Security Company'-s properties.\nAt South Fort George development work is proceeding very rapidly. The townsite company have\ncleared most of their site of all brush and have\ngraded streets ranging ram sixty-six to eighty\nfeet in width, running through the blocks. Sixteen foot alleyways cut uj the lots between the\n.streets.\nPractically all the business in connection with\nmost of the additions, witi, the sale of lands in the\nFort George section; the banks, stores, the lumber\nindustry, steamboat warehousing, postoffice mail\ndistribution, etc., is canied on at South Fort\nGeorge today, and the ev.-T-increasing number of\nbusiness houses opening their doors to the public\non this site is convincing evidence of its thorough\nlegitimacy.\nSouth Fort George is beautifully situated on the\nterraced benches of the Fraser river, the first or\nlower bench affording splendid water-front facilities for steamboats. .Or the second bench the\npresent town is located at an average elevation, of\nabout twenty feet above high water level.\nAt Fort George, the townsite of the Natural Resources Security Company, considerable development work has been accomplished by the owners.\nA large stretch of the site, fronting the Nechaco\nriver, has been cleared of timber, and two long\nstreets, Fraser and Central avenues have been\ngraded. At the Northern end of Central avenue\nseveral buildings are erected, or .are in course of\nconstruction. The telephone exchange is located\nthere, together with a store, large hotel building,\nand the office of the Fort George Tribune.\nThe site is at an elevation of about a hundred\nfeet above river level, the high banks making the\nwater front of little value for commercial purposes.\nIt is generally believed that the Grand Trunk\nPacific people have acquired the .Indian Reserve\nNo. 1. for future townsite purposes. This however, is purely rumor, as the much involved question of Indian titles is as yet far from being settled\nbetween the Provincial and Federal authorities.\nWe believe, however, that the railroad company\nwill undoubtedly gain title to this land eventually,\nand will locate their townsite, their yai'ds and their\nstation on it. The reserjfe contains a splendid\nstretch of dand for townsite purposes, although a\nportion of tbemorthern end lies too low to be utilised until protected from inundation in years of\nextremely high water.\nTo tEe south of the Indian reservation lies the\nninety-two acres of the Hudson's Bay Company,\nbehind which 132 acres locally known as the Bird\nland is situated. This later property is owned by\nthe Northern Developemcnt Company, and will\nconnect their South Fort George townsite with the\nIndian reserve, which willadvance the South Fort\nGeorge interests in the ovui! o\' the Reserve being\ntownsil id by the railway i jtmpany,\nThe Hudson's Pay land ii! perhaps-the most valuable property in Fori Georie owing to its location\nand natural advantages anil it will probably be acquired by the Grand Trunt Pacific and placed on\nthe market together with the Indian reserveas the\nrailroad company's townsite.\nSeveral other properties are now being subdivided und will be placed on the market.\nWithin a radius of three miles from the junction\nof the Eraser and Nechaco rivers, on the west\nbank of the Fraser river, lands for sub-division\nhave been sold by their original owners at prices\nranging from $125 to $500 in acre.\nLets in South Fort George are selling at an average price of $500 per lot and are in brisk demand.\nSATURDAY NIGHT; 1.\nm mm after\nTORONTO SCRIBE IN ATTACKING FORT\nGEORGE TOWNSITE GETS MIXED.\n'\"Toronto Saturday Nighy in its issue of Julj\n30th, continues Itsvattack against the operations -d\nthe Natural Regow-ic^\".Security Company in-thai?\nJfcawasit#on the Nechaco River here.\nWe are not defending this company against thes*\n'\"articles, which.are based on indiscriminate statements in their advertising litrature, but.in this last\neffort the scribe has drifted off his course, ;'Hk\narticle, with its accompanying illustrations, impresses anyone cognizant oi the situation here,\nwith the impression that Saturday Night's article\nmay have been written the morning.after.\nThe article proper is prefaced by a warning regarding highly advertised land schemes,where the\npublic are led to purchase lots on the strengthoi\nadvertised statements,and reference is made to\nthat famous flim-flam land .'company, the'Canada-\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0 Cuba to point the moral\nIllustrating the .article are three photographs\nshowing views of the temporary bank buildings.and\nof the North end of Second Street on the South\nFort George townsite. The article is headed \"Shack?\nand Forest at Fort Gecrge.\" and whilst the-writer\nrefers to the fact that supplies are brought in owr\nan expensive route for a long \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 distance he is unwittingly depreciating Fort George at large by\nseeking to justify his statements regarding misrepresentations he finds in the advertising of the.\nNatural Resourcs Security Co,\nTaking into proper consideration the facts to\nwhich our contemporary refers; that we are remotely situated here; that transportation is an\nexpensive problem, and that all things are necessarily primative at the preient time owing tc the\ntown's youth,the buildings shown in that journal's\nillustration? are even yet a credit to.South Fort\nGeorge. Perhaps Saturday Night is not aware that\nat the time their correspondent sent in the published photographs of the diminutive rough lumber\nshacks which serve the Traders Bank of Canada.,\nand the Bank of British North America he*-e as\nquarters, arrangements were progressing for the\nerection of the new buildings now nearing completion ; or that the ' 'Photograph of Fort George today\" as reproduced, represented a scene on Seconfl\nAvenue during the celebrations of July the first, for\nwhich a sum of one thousand dollars was collected\nfor prizes in the space of twenty four -hours. This\nhappened at South Fort George, a townsite the existence of which our contemporary is apparently\nignorant of, and yet is getting mixed up with Fori\nGeorge, the townsite owned by the Natural Resources people.\nFor the benefit of Toronto Saturday Night we\nsubmit the following information:\nSouth Fort George is .populated today by about\n260 people. At Fort George, [Natural Resources\nSecurity Co.] the total population dees not exceed\nseventy people, many of whom are employees.\nThe Natural Resources Co., have a perfectly\nlegitimate, but at present practically unpopulated\ntownsite of great area. The value of their various\nsub-divisions., at their selling prices, exclusive of the\ngovernment blocks, is approximately $1,681,800.\nThe claim of this company to the original town-\nsite of Fort George is technically indisputable as\nsome of the land they purchased is registered, in\nthe Lands Department at Victoria under that name,\ngiving them the same indisputable title to it as a\nname for a patent medicine protected by a copyright.\nTo one of the statements in the article referred\nto we wish to take unqualified exception. In refer-\ning to the 48,000 acres of land acquired by the\nNatural Resources Security Co.,near Quesnel \"Saturday Night\" states that there is \"no surety of any\nhay or grain crops in any season unless the tedious\nand expensive process of irrigating the land is first\nresorted to.\" The correspondent who gave out that\nstatement to our contemporary is a poor observer.\nThe Quesnel district is notably one in which irrigation is unnecessary, and is not resorted to at all.\nIn attacking any corporation for resorting to\nmethods which a journalist believes it to be in the\npubl c terest to expose, the writer should be sure\nof th i ibility of his source of information, and\nshould not make statements to uphold his opinions\nwhich may in any way depreciate the value of a\ngreat country in its infancy.\n. 1DRT GEORGE HERALD\nAugust 20, 1910,\n2\nfort mm ie\nPUBLISHED BY THE\nNORTHERN INTERIOR PRINTING CO,\n.'.

DANIBLli, Editor.\nAugust 20, L910,\npresent the intial issue of\n! i George Herald to ihe\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 as a further tribute to the\n, ami future city from\ni it derives its name. It\nwill lie our aim during the\nlife of this publication to give\nour leaders a true and accurate\naccount of the progress and development of this place and.\ngreat district convergent io it.\nFori George, geograj Ideally the\nhub of the province, has during\nthe | ast year been thrown into\nthe limelight of publicity by the\nCanadian and American press,\nand also by the extensive adver-\ntising of corporations interested\nin the development of their land\nholdings. The results of this\npublicity are very evident here.\nThe investing public, recogni ling\nin Fort George the point of importance on the located line of\nthe Grand Trunk Pacific Railway\nthrough the British Columbian\nmainland, lost no time in converting the poplar covered river-\nbenches into the nucelus of a\nfuture city. Here at South Fort\nGeorge today, where less than\none year ago an insignificant\nbrush-lined trail led to a small\ntrading post, the South Fort\nGeorge townsite presents to the\nsight a typically western frontier\ntown in process of evolution.\nIt is a regretable fact that\nmuch of the advertising issued\nby the interested corporations,\nconveys an utterly false impression of the existing conditions\nhere today, Land companies\nhave '. 'd people to believe that\nthey would find here great\nstretches of land practically\nready for the plow, whereas their\nacres are in many cases covered\nwith dense growths of timber\non tin undulating topogra] ny.\nTow i es have been advertised as prosperous ci ii\nthe-making, which on inves\nestablish at Fort George also.\nOur intentions would have been\ncarried into effect long ago had\nit not been for the coming of\nBritish Columbia's most brilliant\njournalist John Houston, who\narrived here and spread the white\nwings of Ins Tribune broadcast\nover the land on November the\nsixth of last year. Houston's\nwork was having visible \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 fleet\niur the good and advancement oi\nFort George when illness overtook him resulting in his death.\nThe tragedy of John Houston's\nend, fighting his sickness by ihe\nforce of a great will, rather than\ndiscontinue publication and secure medical aid; waiting for\nrelief three hundred miles from\na railroad until death claimed\nhim, a victim of a super-human\ntask accomplished at the cost of\nlife; this shall be a tragedy which\nwill quicken the pulse of every\njournalist who lifts a pen to follow the trail he blazed, and seeking the truth, shall write it\nas it is.\nThe Herald politically will\nchampion the conservative cause;\nand will stand for the suppression of lawlessness, but primarily\nfor the advancement of South\nFort George where we have located, of Fort George as we forsee\nit ten years hence, covering we\nbelieve the whole of the areas\nnow divided and sub-divided.\nWe are here to light for the\nrights of the people. For the\nrights of the pioneer business\nmen and others who have rights\nthrough residence here. To fight\nall the time, to a finish.
