Pineo's Two Stores : Alberni : Capt. Wolley Creates Live Interest In •s. Navy League Speeches by Capt. Clive Phillips- Wolley and Danvers Osborn, and a patriotic musical programme had been i promised. In response, there was a large gathering of men, women and children, in the Port Alberni theater last Monday night. Whether it was love of music or interest in the subject of the speeches that caused the splendid turn-out is not known. With some it may have been both, but with others there is a suspicion that they attended with a willingness to be bored for an hour or so with uninteresting talk about the usefulness of a Canadian Navy league in return for the pleasure of hearing the musical voices of Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Hanna, Mr. Collinge and Mr. Bennett. Mrs. Miller and Mr. Bennett were unable to appear, but Mrs. Hanna and Mr. Collinge were generous and, Mr. Osborn and Major Simonds lending some talented assistance, the audience was disappointed neither with the quality or the quantity of song. Mrs. C. M. Wise and A. L. Withers were accompanists. The music helped to make one of the most interesting and enjoyable evenings ever spent by an Alberni-Port Alberni gathering, but in this case it was not the music, as good as it was, that made the success. The success was due to Capt. Wolley, the principal speaker of the evening, ably supported by Mr. Osborn. R. J. Burde, president of the Port Alberni branch of the Navy League, acted as chairman. Capt. Woolley spoke for a little more than forty minutes. He won absolute command of attention with his first few words which were an appeal for interest in his subject. He explained the objects of the league and gave telling illustrations of what could be accomplished through its work and influence. Every man owed it to himself, whether from patriotic or purely business motives, to take an active interest in the naval policy of Canada in particular and the empire as a whole. The maintenance of the empire's supremacy, and with that, the liberties and possessions of its individuals, depended on the continued efficiency of the navy. That there was a possibility of war with Germany was made plain and reasonable, while the Japanese menace was made to strike effectively home. Limitations of space prevent a more comprehensive synopsis of Capt. Wool- ley's speech which, suffice it for the present to say, was thoroughly convincing and inspiriting. There was no necessity for a formal vote of thanks to Capt. Woolley. The rousing applause at the-conclusion of his address expressed more than that, and, in addition, the audience without request or suggestion, rose and lustily sang "For He's A Jolly Fellow," Mr. Osborn spoke briefly and to the point. Refreshingly frank and unmistakably sincere his man-to-man style of delivery made him easily popular with the audience. Though he looked at the question from a Radical point of view— " I am a Lloyd-Georger " he said—he endorsed practically all Capt. Wollley said, and took occasion to pay a splendid tribute to the worth of that gentleman to the British empire. Mr. Osborn differed, with the preceding speaker on one point only, but that difference was not material to the question at stake. He was not alarmed about Germany. Canada's present menace on the Pacific was the Japanese, and this was a menace that called for immediate consideration. The speaker made an effective appeal on this point evidenced by applause of approval. The following resolution moved by R. J. Burde, and seconded by Mr. Osborn, was enthusiastically and unanimously carried : "Whereas, the Canadian nation has declared emphatically for closer union with the Mother Country ; "And whereas, the Mother Country and indeed the whole Empire is dependent upon the sea power for its very existence; "And whereas, Canada and the Mother Country are agreed that it is right and reasonable that all the partners in the Empire should contribute towards the naval defence of that Empire; "And whereas, it is notorious that the most valuable assislhnce which the dominions could give to the Empire' would be the creation of fleet units to control and protect the Pacific ; "And whereas, the speedy completion of the Panama canal must enormously increase the shipping business of this coast; "And whereas, avast body of expert opinion has pronounced in favor of the establishment of a great naval base at such place on our west coast as is best suited to the purpose, and the building of cruisers and other war vessels therein; "Therefore, be it resolved that the Government of Canada be urged to take such immediate steps as will lead to the creation of a Canadian fleet unit in the Pacific and to the establishment of a naval base and shipbuilding yards with such promptitude as to make this coast ready for the revolution in sea trade likely to be effected by the completion of the Panama canal." The effect of the speeches and the passing of the resolution may be estimated by the fact that the membership of the Port Alberni branch was nearly trebled before the close of the meeting, G. H. Bevan-Pritchard, the secretary- treasurer, issuing about twenty-five new certificates. The National anthem was sung at the opening and the close of the meeting. That First Train. The E. & N. railway passengfsr service to Port Alberni was not inaugurated on Wednesday as was expected. The reason is the authorization from the railway commission had not yet been received. It has been daily expected and may have beep received by this time, but up to the hour of going to press the Pioneer News had no de- fiinite information. Now it is Dec. 15, Friday of next week, that the first train is to be expected. When it does come there will be a lot of people aboard it. Interest In The Concerts The passengers who were aboard the steamer Tees when she became stranded in Kyuquot sound last week, presented Capt. Gillam with the following testimonial :—"We, the passengers on the steamer Tees wish to express our gratitude to Capt. Gillam and his officers and the ship's company for their constant courtesy and kindness to us in our uncomfortable position in Kokshuttle arm and we wish it to be known that in our opinion there was no lack of vigilance or care." Already there is an eager interest in the concerts to be given in Whyte's hall, Alberni, on Thursday and Friday of next week,' and it is almost assured that the visiting entertainers will see few, if any, empty chairs before them. Mr. and Mrs. Codd are vocalists who have won popular favor, as well as the critics, in the leading cities of Canada, and their visit to Alberni will be an event of unusual importance to music lovers of this community. They will be accompanied by Miss Long a pianist of international reputation. The programmes will be as follows: Thursday Duet—(a) On wings of Music (b) O, moment that I bless.—Mr. & Mrs. Codd Piano Solo—(a) Chopin's Prelude No. 17 (b) Polonaise, A flat— Miss Irene Long Recit and Aria—From the Rage of the Tempest; Hear me ye winds and waves -Mr. Codd Songs—(a) My Realm of Love (b) If I might love you (c) Still wie die nacht —Mrs. Codd Song—The Monk—Mr. Codd Piano Solo—Concert Etude, B. flat- Miss Irene Long, l.k.c.m.

Reserved seats, $1.00. General admittance, 75 cents. Telephones Still Silent The deadlock between the B. C. Telephone company and the subscribers to the system in Alberni and Port Alberni continues uninterrupted. The company has made no move to conciliate the people, while the lessees of the instruments have resigned themselves to life without the convenience of the company's service. Two hotels, the Somass and the Arlington, have re-installed the old Paterson system, and others are also figuring on re-adopting it. The feeling of the people of both towns is strong against the company on account of its refusal to discharge its moral obligations to the creditors of the contracting company which installed the system, and hostilities, both active and non-active, will be pursued. An effort will be made to have the creditors' grievance ventilated on the floor of the legislature at its next session and to seek the moral support of people wherever the B. C. Telephone company is doing business or attempting it. Furthermore, on the eve of municipal incorporation, there is a unanimous feeling that no man need seek election to the first council unless he is prepared to pledge himself to resist any and every privilege or concession the B. C. Telephone company may seek until such time as all debts shall have been paid.

The history of the white man's first invasion of Barclay Sound and Alberni canal, and explorations of other parts of the west coast of Vancouver Island, is briefly but intelligently given by E. Mackay Young in an article contributed to the British Columbia Magazine. The contributor deals also with the scenic attractions and wonderfully rich resources of this district. Following are some connected extracts from the article which is entitled "Barclay Sound Coast and Hinterland ": Almost as indented as the rugged west coast of Scotland, the coast of Vancouver Island from Cape Beale to Cape Scott, its farthermost point, presents a series of sounds and inlets. Quite the largest of these, and not the least important, is Barclay Sound, which extends inland and narrows into that delectable fiord known as Alberni Canal. This fiord runs through entrancing scenery to within thirty miles of the east coast of the island, and is joined in various parts by Stamp river, Somass river and other streams and creeks. On many maps the sound is named Barklay, but the correct spelling is Barclay, so-called after the British captain of that name. Captain Barclay, the accredited discoverer of the sound, commanded the "Imperial Eagle," and sailed from Ostend in November, 1786, arriving at Nootka in June, 1787. It was about this time that the Northwest American fur trade began to attract adventurers from all quarters of the world, especially from Great Britain, Russia, Spain and the United States. Barclay was one of those intrepid British navigators who managed to combine exploration and trading to the advantage of geographical knowledge and the personal gain of the fortunate seeker after the lucrative fur-bearing denizens of sea and land. Sometimes the quest of the elusive sea otter proved barren or disappointing to the high hopes then cherished of rapid wealth. It is certain that quick and big fortunes were often made in those early days of the fur trade, the precious skins being in great demand, especially in Russia and China. On this particular voyage in 1787 Barclay appears to have had great success in bartering his old iron for new fur with the natives of historic Nootka. On his richly laden ship he sailed southward in the golden month of July and discoverd the sound with which his name will always be associated. Of his further voyage homewards little need here be told. One tragic happening, however, marked the beginning of a series, many doubtless unrecorded, of deadly encounters between white men and natives during the next two decades. Pursuing his course past Cape Flattery, Barclay sent a boat to enter the river variously named Destruction river and the Ohahiat, and the crew of five men were massacred by the natives. Barclay Sound was next visited by Captain Gray and Captain Meares in 1788. The latter, famous as the instigator or cause of the historic Nootka affair two years later, made a partial survey of the sound, naming Port Effingham and the eastern headland Cape Beale. Rising in places to a height of 3,000 feet, the shores of Alberni Canal are canopied with Douglas fir, hemlock and cedar. Around Anderson Lake and that part of Alberni Canal district immediate to Barclay Seund there are immense forests of timber—spruce, cedar and hemlock. Much, if not the greater part, of this timber has already been staked, and several lumber mills are already in operation. As the land becomes cleared of timber and underbrush the rich quality of the soil known to prevail throughout Alberni and the other districts back of Barclay Sound will be found to amply repay cultivation for mixed farming and fruit. Great success has already attended the efforts of many new settlers during recent years in fruit-growing. The apples, pears, plums and cherries of the west of Vancouver Island are the finest grown in any part of the province. Port Alberni is making a bid for some of the transportation business of the west coast and the Pacific. It is claimed that as vessels are often delayed by tide and fog between Cape Beale and Vancouver, eight or ten hours can be saved by adopting the Alberni route. Alberni is of great depth, has no tide races, and, being also comparatively free from fog visitations, there are credible reasons for the hopes entertained in this respect. At any rate, it seems. certain that with the development of the lumber, mining, farming and fishing industries of Barclay district and the west coast of the island, this route will be increasingly used in the near future. In truth, this wonderful Barclay Sound, its coasts and hinterland, have great and inestimable possibilities. The wealth in timber in the interior and on the islands is incalculable. Coal, iron, copper and other minerals are known to exist in vast measures. The store of seals, halibut, salmon and other fish is immense and exhaustless. All those opulent resources have barely been tapped and only await the enterprise of settler, prospector, miner and capitalist. Nevertheless, of recent years this important section of Vancouver Island has gradually become better known and appreciated. As to the glorious scenery of this district, tongue and pen can give but a halting and meagre conception. It is where the artist and photographer lend the inimitable aid of their art. But even the finest sketches of the one and the happiest snapshots of the other can render only restricted and often inadequate justice to the varied beauty and grandeur of the scenery of this ' 'promised land." 5 Acre Blocks We are putting a new sub-division on the market and would like to tell you about it.

Looks Like Cinch For Port Alberni Team It now looks like a cinch that the Port Alberni football team will hold its lead to the finish in the West Coast series of games for the championship and thereby retain the cup so nobly won last year. The Ports have won all their matches up to date and have only two more to play, one on Dec. 16 with the Albernis, and the other on Dec. 23 with the Parksvilles. One more win will settle the business, while two losses can mean nothing worse than a tie with the Albernis. As far as the championship goes the Somass and the Parksvilles are out of it, and the Albernis will have to win three straight games to reach the tie stage. The Alberais are billed to play the Somass this afternoon, the Ports on the following Saturday, and a postponed match with the Somass on a date not yet set. This postponed match is the one that some players thought was to have been settled on Wednesday afternoon of last week and was awarded bv the referee to the Somass because the Albernis did not appear on the field. The misunderstanding which led to the default has since been cleared up and by consent of the Somass the match is now to be played. Two matches were played on Saturday afternoot last. Port Alberni defeated the Somass by a score of four goals to two, and Alberni defeated the Parksvilles on the grounds of the latter by a score of two goals to one. On Wednesday afternoon of this week the Parksville team visited Alberni and met the Somass team. The result was a draw, each side scoring two goals.
