That was i he\nquestion that was disCUSKd at BOIBO\nconsiderable length on Saturday afltr-\nnoon in tht Council Chambt r when a\ndelegation from the Indus',rial Workers\nAssociation of Prince Rupert met wi.h\nthe special committee of the Council\nto go into the question of whether or\nnot 37 1-2 cents pel hour is a living\nwage.\nThe evidence adduci d was all t-lt nrly\nin favor of tht- advance. Comparisons\nwere made between Prince Rupi rt and\nother young cities showing that while\nthe wages ruled the same, thc cost of\nliving was much higher here than\nelsewhere. One of the witnesses even\ntabulated his wage again-1 his w.-ckly\nexpenditure upon the bare necessities\nof life and showed that the former was\nnot even adequate to support a family\nof four. The whole proceedings wure\ninteresting and afforded everyone prist nt\nsome enlightenment upon the vexed\nquestion.\nThe conference consisted of the four\nmembers of the council, namely, Alder\nman Hilditch, chairman, Alderman Clayton, Alderman Pattullo and Alderman\nNewton, and the Workers' Committee\nconsisting of Messrs. Fraser, Morse\nFisher, Carroll and Casey.\nObject of Meeting\nThe proceedings commenced with\nsome little discussion rcgnrding the\nnature of the meeting, whether a discussion or an investigation was entered\ninto, and the Chairman, Alderman\nHilditch called upon Alderman Pattullo,\nthe mover of thc motion appointing\nthe council's committee, to explain his\nmotion that thc basis of the meeting\nmight be clearly understood. He said:\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2'What I should like to see is the workers\ngUbmitting data showing reasons why\nthey should have forty-live cents |icr\nhour.\"\nStraight Talking\nMr. Fisher who was the first to give\nevidence said DO had travtlled thtse\ncoasts consiiii rably. \"In Vancouver,\"\nhe said, \"I waa paid $3 a day. The\ncosi of food there was $5 per week for\nthree squaii imals a day. In Jumau\nthe rati was 50 cents an hour, nnd this\n1 rate is paid in Ketchikan, Skagway, and\nWhite Horsr. The cost of living thi.ro\nis $7 per wcok. In Dawson 75 cents\nper hour is paid for street work. Most\nmen there do as they do here that is,\nbatch for themselves. For clot hut such\nas a working man is entitled to wear,\"\nhe said, \"the price in Prince Rupert\ntoday are thc same as charged to myself\nin Dawson four months age. As for\nhouse rent, in Prince Rupert you pay\n$11 per month for a shack with u bedstead, a table nnd a couple of orange\nboxes in il. Rents in Rupert for one\nroom ranged from $11 to $20 per month.\nIn Vancouver you can get a res|iertable\ntwo rooms on Powell street for $8 per\nmonth or one room for $0. And the\nclimate conditions in Vnncouver are\nat least two per cent better than they\nare in Prince Rupert. A man can earn\nonly about $50 per month in Prime\nRupert. In the rainy season perhn|\u00C2\u00BB\neven less.\"\nRent and Fuel Costs\nAlderman Pattullo asked: \"What is\nthe average rent for a house for a married man?\" Mr. Fisher replied: \"About\n$30 per month. I myself am paying\n$20 per month for a shack which if\nthc sanitary inspector was doing his\nduty would not be standing.\" \"Would\n$20 per month not be the average rent?\"\nasked Alderman Pattullo. \"That depends on the house,\" replied Mr. Fisher.\nTho Chairman: \"Taking an average\nfamily of a man, his wife and two chil\ndren, you think that their rent would\ncome to $30 per month?\"\nMr. Fisher: \"Yin, about $30 p.r\nmonth tnking it from my point of view.\"\nAlderman Pattullo: \"Don't you think\nthat a little high?\"\nMr. Fisher: \"Not as I tnke it and\nil-.. ii you hnve to add thp cost of tin\nBlack Diamond.

For years thc object of pity\non,the part of her western sisters; pictured as the mere slave of a sensual\nhusliand, the woman of tht Orient has\n\"come back\" at the owman of the\nOccident.\nThe critics are two Indian ladim, of\nwhom one is a quwn, the Maharani of\nBaroda, wife of the Gaekwar of that\nstate, and the other the Princess Pra-\ntiva, a daughter of the Maharaja of\nKooch Kt-shtib Chunder Sen.\nThe Maharina of Baroda has twice\nvisited the United States. On the bust\nvisit, being pressed by the newspaper\nmen, she did say something. Her\nhighness's remarks are reported as\nfollows:\n\"The women of your big, vast, young\ncountry, I confess, disappointed me. I\nhatl heard so much of them; that they\nequalled the French women in their\ntwo most striking qualities of chic and\nvivacity, that they drtssed far better\nthan the English women; were as\ncoquettish its the Spanish: that they\nwere, in short, its fascinating as the most\nfascinating women in thc world\u00E2\u0080\u0094the\nRussian.\n\"Well, they are not. They are less\nchic than the French women, because\ntheir clothes are more exaggerated, less\nbecoming, and not always appropriate\nto the occasion. . . .\n\"They dress better than the English\nwomen but their clothing is not so\ndurable, suggests mothing of the solid\nqualities of modesty and station, as do\nthe tweeds and broadcloths worn by the\nEnglish. Their coquetry is not attractive, for it possesses no sublety.\n\"I understand that some American\nwomen make the proposals of marriage.\nThat I do not doubt after watching\nthem make themselves 'agreeable' to\na man at dinner. As for the fascinations\nof the Russian women. No No No\nThe Russian women arc soft and feminine. The American women are masculine. The only softness about them\nis tht stuffs with which they drape\nthemselves\u00E2\u0080\u0094not their souls.\"\nThe Princt-ss Prativa, who was interviewed in l.i inl\u00C2\u00AB>n. had this to say\nconcerning her western sisters:\n\"The women of the rest of the world\nare so unhappy. We of India alone\nknow the art of happiness. We judge\na nation by the status of irs women,\nand the status of the American women is eternal unrest. One woman\nsaid tome: 'I have nothing but money,\nand I'm tired of that' They lack that\ncalm centre of philosophy wi.hout which\nlife is a whirlpool and the world is\nin a vast turmoil. They talk loudly,\nthey try to be i.prightly, and only succeed in making ugly faces. They are\nnot enough alone. They do not read\nenough.

H.\nNicholson, manager of the Grand Trunk\nPacific steamships, left for Winnipeg\nyesterday, where he will confer with\nthe head officers of the G. T. 1'. regarding\na number of important matters concerning thc company's affairs in Vancouver. When Captain Nicholson returns in about three weeks' time it is\nexpected he will have at least two\nimportant announcements to make.\nOne of these will be in connection\nwith the reported purchase of the Albion Iron Woiks site and wharf at\ntho norlh end of main street. This\npro|MTty has been under option to the\nGrand Trunk Pacific for some time,\nand tht only thing that is understood\nto have prevented the deal going through\nwas the probable cost of making wharfage extensions to the present dockage\nfacilities. Soundings and .e.ts in front\nof the Albion Iron Works wharf have\nbeen going on for some time, with a\nview to determining whether the construction of a new pier there would he\nas costly as in the case of the new\nC. P. R. piers, which, owing to the\nrocky nature of the bottom, had to\nhave sufficient earth brought there\nby a dredge and dump scows to make\na foundation to drive the piles in.\nEnough data is said to have been secured now to enable Captain Nicholson\nto lay thc matter before the head officials of the company with a fairly close\nestimate of the cost. It is expected they\nwill sanction the deal.\nThe other matters upon which Captain Nicholson will confer with the\nmanagement of the G. T. P. is the question of changes in the running schedule\nfor the company's steamers between this\nport and Prince Rupert.
