HOV 30 «« BERNI PIONEER NEWS. VOL. 1. ALBERNI, B. C, NOV. 23. 1907. NO. 15. ALBERNI CANAL CLEAR AND DEEP Capt. Walbran Knows Conditions and Has Something to Say. Capt. J. T. Walbran, discussing the question as to the suitability of Alberni as an ocean port, said the other day: "I know Alberni canal and the new townsite on Stamp harbor extremely well having made a survey of the harbor in 1892. I have always thought most highly of Alberni (Stamp harbor) as an ocean port. The waterway from the ocean, entering at Cape Beale, being clear of all danger for the largest vessels even such as the Lusitania. The landfall is excellent, there being no offlying dangers in the track of shipping and the shore and waters of Alberni canal are both bold and honest throughout, with very deep water. As an ocean port, Alberni will compare most favorablp with Portland and San Francisco. From my intimate knowledge of this coast, having been in command of the D. G. S. Quadra for many yeai's, and having entered Bark- ley sound under all conditions of weather, I can state with confidence that Alberni harbor as an ocean port is an extremely safe one for all classes of vessels."

Marpole Visits Scenes of Operations and Makes Announcement—Sites For Lumber Mills at Alberni Selected and Settled—Work of Building. Earlier than the most sauguine cared to predict, the extension of the E. & N. railway from Wellington to Alberni will be completed, and the giant wheels of manufacturing industry will be turning in Alberni. Such is the way the situation was made to look by the visit of R. Marpole and a party of captains of industry who were in town on Tuesday and Wednesday. W. E. Knapp, general manager of the Red Cliff lumber company, who was not expected to return here till next Spring, came in at the same time as Mr. Marpole. So also did R. L. Morse and J. G. Corbett, two gentlemen who represent manufacturing concerns of almost the same importance as that represented by Mr. Knapp. Sites for lumber mills were decided upon, and the mill men immediately left for their respective headquarters to complete arrangements for the commencement of building next Spring. From Bird's mill, in New Alberni, more than half way up to the old town, there will be a string of lumber manufacturing industries, and this does not by any means represent all that is to happen in the manufacturing line within the next year. As to railway construction, and the completion of the line as early as possible, all doubt as to the company's sincerity has been removed. The railway will come through just as fast as it can be built and built properly. After Mr. Marpole'S return to Vancouver the Daily Province of that city had this to say: "The clearing of fifty-six miles of right of way, across Vancouver Island from Wellington to New Alberni will be pushed thjs winter by the Esquimault & Nanaimo Railway, and in the spring the work of grading the route will be started and not many months will ela'pse before the ties and rails follow the shovels and scrapers of the grading gangs. The railway company is now calling for tenders f iv ihe clearing of the r'ght of way, and contracts for the work will be awarded as soon after Dec. 1, when all tenders must be in, as possible. "Information to this effect was given The Province by Mr. R. Marpole, vice- president of the Esquimault & Nanaimo Railway and general executive assistant of the C. P. R., on his return from Alberni. Mr. Marpole spent the week on Vancouver Island on busineFS connected with the extension of the Esquimault & Nanaimo Railway and the 'ocating of sites at New Alberni for three large lumber concerns. "According to the present plans of these mill companies there is every promise that within eighteen months Esquimault & Nanaimo Railway Co. Wellington-Alberni Extension. PROPOSALS FOR CLEARING RIGHT OF WAY: Sealed proposals will be received until noon of Monday, 2nd. day of December, 1907, by the Chief Engineer of the Esquimault and Nanaimo Railway Company at his office in Can. Pac. Ry. Station, Vancouver, B. C. for the clearing of the right of way from Nanoose Bay to Alberni. Proposals may be for one or more sections of five miles each. Specifications, proposal forms, etc. can be obtained on application by mail or otherwise, to above office, and also at Assistant Superintendent's office at Victoria, B. C. The lowest or any tender not necessarily accepted. C. E. CARTWRIGHT, Vancouver, B. C. Nov. llth., 1907. Chief Engineer. the town of New Alberni will be a large center of population and the hub of industrial activity on the westerly coast of Vancouver Island. "The mills for which sites at New Alberni were picked out are the Red Cliff Lumber Company of Duluth, the Alberni mills and Timber Company and the B. C. Cedar Lumber Company. Mr. Marpole was accompanied to New Alberni by representatives of all three lumber companies, and tentative arrangements for the granting of sites to each concern were made. The sites will all be situated on the waterfront of the new town, and behind the mills will run the main line and spurs of the Esquimault & Nanaimo Railway extension across the island. "The three lumber concerns will in all probability commence active operations on the erection of their plants next spring. All the mills will be as large as the Hastings plant now in operation in Vancouver, the cut of each approximating 150,000 feet of lumber per working day of ten hours. The cut of these mills will be both for export by sea and rail. Ocean shipments will be made on steamers and sailing vessels, which will reach the new town by way of Barclay Sound and the iflberni Canal, while the rail shipments will be handled across the Gulf to Vancouver connection with transcontinental lines." Conservatives Declare for Exclusion of Asiatics. The Conservative convention held in Vancouver on Friday and Saturday of this week was, from point of attendance, unanimity and euthusiasm, the most successful ever held in the province of British Columbia, while it also resulted in the production of a platform, sound, definite, courageous and progressive, such as is much required at this stage of the country's political history. There were five hundred delegates present, representing every constituency in the province, and none of this representation was by proxy. All business was expedited in a most satisfactory manner, and a strong provincial organization was formed. The platform includes an Asiatic exclusion plank, straight grained, and without suspicion of a twist or a knot in it. The convention stood to a man for the preservation of th:s as a white man's country, and it had the assurance of R. L. Borden, leader of the Conservative party of the Dominion, that this was right in line with the policy he would declare in the forthcoming general election. The convention enthusiastically expressed its confidence in R. L. Borden and Premier McBride, and cheered to the echo at the mention of the name of either. LAND ACT. ALBERNI LAND DISTRICT.

It tells you things you did not know. IT MEANS MONEY TO YOU. Cannot you see that everything points to ALBERNI? Sir Thomas Shaughnessy said: "The extension of the E. & N. rail way line from Wellington to Alberni will be prosecuted with all possible speed." Such is the statement made by Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, president of the Canadian Pacific Railway company, in Victoria and Vancouver this week.— Alberni Pioneer News. The C. P. R; owns all the waterfront in the Anderson Townsite and on the opposite side of the Canal. The C. P. R. needs a shorter route to the Orient, and must have it. The C. P. R. contemplates an expenditure for wharves, warehouses, etc. at Alberni of five hundred thousand dollars. The C. P. R. will build a large hotel at Alberni, and one or two hotels at the lakes. The C. P. R. realize that there is room for a big city in the centre of this Island, and are determined that it shall be in their railway belt. The C. P. R. is clearing its first ten thousand acres of land! Where? On the line to Alberni. The C. P. R. will be running into Alberni within a year. The line is now under construction. The C. P. R. will make Alberni the largest manufacturing city in B. C.
