No. 15 THE WEEK, SATURDAY, MAY 14, 1910 Onb Dollar Per Annum IE HIGH SCHOOL SITE The Week has been opposed, from the [•st, to Mordecai Hill as a site for the new ligh School. The more its pretensions live been examined, the hoi lower they Ive proved; and it now transpires that addition to the disadvantages of a poor [cation, an unwelcome neighbour, in the swish Cemetery, and difficulty of access le site would have been far more costly Ian its advocates tried to make out. Iiairman Jay supported the claims of the pation on Burnside Road, ancl everyone 111 have respect for his judgment. Lat- I'ly, public attention has been directed to Spring Ridge sandpits, and an organ- M effort is being made to utilize them the High School. The Week favoured location which has not yet been publicly Icussed. It comprises a portion of the Irnsew Hairy farm on Moss Street. This [uld undoubtedly be central, accessible, economical. It is within five minutes' Ilk of two tram routes, and is level and Jissed over; so that no expenditure would necessary to prepare the site. Nine ■■es, which seems to bc the area desired ■although in the judgment of The Week would be ample—could be purchased $35,000, and no other site yet men- Ined would cost as little when everything |taken into account. In spite, however, these advantages, The Week favours Spring Ridge site; not only because it I central and accessible, but because the lilding of a High School in that locality luld forever solve the problem of an eye- re, as well as raise the value of property Id the tone of the Spring Ridge district, lie Week is informed by a competent Ithority that if the City donates its area some three and one-half acres, the bailee required, running to six and one-half Ires, could he purchased for $40,000. is estimated that the buildings will re- Ice the figure asked to this amount. The line authorities estimate that sand and lavel to the value of $15,000 could be Id, thus reducing the net cost to $25,000, liich is the amount already voted for the nrchasc of a site. There only remains le question of levelling, and towards this le City Council has already offered to ly $7,500; hut it is probable that before le negotiations are completed they might induced to increase this somewhat. Ifter all, both Council and Trustees lould be broad gauge enough to remember lat they exist to serve the public and [lore their respective interests overlap ■ere should be no hard-and-fast line lawn between tlie duties of an alderman Id the duties of a trustee. The School •ustees may say that they have nothing j do with improving the city, or raising tone of a locality; but, as servants of [■>. ratepayers, they are not justified in jioring such considerations if they can lertain them without injuring the cause I education.

THE APOTHEOSIS OF THE CENSOR Most people have heard of "Bumble," but few people outside the limits of 'Toronto the Good" had heard of Inspector Kennedy, until a fortnight ago. Xow he has achieved world-wide fame, aud his inline will go down in history, coupled witli that of Igatins Donnelly, with whom generic. cult to tell. he shares the proud distinction of having ullj(.ss jt ])0 ],;s „wn ii'nbecilit made a discovery about Shakespeare. On Donnelly's discovery it is quite unnecessary to dilate. Of Kennedy's discovery it is probable that more will lie heard. The Inspector occupies the important office of Censor; and sueh an office, in a city with the reputation of Toronto, is not, an easy one to fill, ns Inspector Kennedy is finding. In consequence of the perennial invasion of low-class American melodrama, thc Council has found it necessary to establish certain by-laws to regulate theatrical performances. One of these provides that "no crime or murder shall be exhibited to the public in any theatre or hall." Application was recently mnde to the Censor, as a matter of precaution before concluding anv engagement, for tlie mortal tragedies of Euripides and Shakes- of 'a great blow" would. naturally he "a 1 ,1 ,• i ini 1 severe shock," the variation is hardlv peare and the sensational and blood-curdling vaudeville which has obtained such an ascendency in Chicago and Toronto. Few cities have made a success of dramatic and literary censorship.

Just what the Censor of Toronto will advertise by his latest vagarv, y, it is < 11 f 11- MR. FIELDING'S TESTIMONIAL The Week has no sympathy whatever with those persons who have criticised Mr. Fielding for receiving a testimonial of $100,000—least of all with those who have criticised him on political grounds. If Canadians arc so deficient in public spirit, and so mean in their treatment of public servants, that they will not loosen the purse-strings enough to pay a Cabinet Minister even a living salary, they have no right to complain because their parsimony is emphasized by the generous action of n few. Mr. Fielding is a man of unblemished reputation, both in private and public life. He has occupied a posi- THE SONGHEES RESERVE It looks as if the Dominion Government is beginning to understand the Songhees Reserve question. There are rumours of a settlement upon tho lines which The Week has advocated from the first, and which no other paper has hitherto supported. The contention of The Week was that the Indiana should be treated in this matter as other men. After fifty years' undisturbed possession, it was altogether beside the question to dispute the title, as at. nn stage would it have been possible to oust them without, buying thein out, on precisely the same terms as white men. The Week stated two years ago thai the Indians were ready to sell for $300,000. The proposal was pooh- poohed. Xow it turns out that they will get $500,1)00 by thi; process of sub-dividing, auctioning the lots, and paying them the proceeds. The Week would respectfully point out, that this is another example of tho way in which the City of Victoria does its business, nnd that the solution of the water problem will develop a similar case.

"RADIGER & JANION 1318 Wharf Street 'British Columbia Agents At The Street ^ Corner p By THE LOUNGER The city looks quite sombre in its mourning, and everywhere one sees drapery hung for the passing of a great King. The Colonist offices were the first in the city to drape their front on the afternoon when the sad news came through; since then, most of the public buildings and stores have followed suit. The Colonist was also one of the few buildings in Victoria to hoist the flag at noon on Monday when the new King was proclaimed; the others were, Government Buildings, E. G. Prior & Co., Thc Victoria Hotel, and the New England Hotel. There may have been others but from Government Street the ones I have mentioned appeared to be the only ones in evidence. * * * I thought that the town was being bombarded on Monday, blasting was going on all round wherever one went, and the way the buildings shook gave one the impression that the charges were large ones. I half expected to see a few buildings go hurtling through the air and was keeping my weather eye open for a nice soft spot to land upon in case I went up with them. Some horses got scared and began to try and climb up the telegraph poles, possibly with an idea that it looked quieter higher up than down on the roadway. Then at twelve o'clock the guns were fired to celebrate the proclamation of King George V, so altogether the morning could hardly be described as a peaceful one. * * * /• I notice that several people are complaining about the dust which blows about when the wind gets up and various suggestions have been made to combat this nuisance, someone suggested oil but a number of people think that there is enough oil about already. Dust is an article which requires a lot of soothing as I know from experience not only here but elsewhere; in Victoria it seems to creep into offices and rooms and settle itself comfortably on books and pictures as if seeking rest from the outside turmoil of the world. Like time it creeps on and gets thicker and thicker until ultimately one could easily raise an indoor kitchen garden on the top of our favourite authors and grow mustard and cress on the picture tops. * * * People don't lose much time on this continent. I observed a man being shaved, manicured and having his boots cleaned all at the same time. In course of time when flying machines are in every-day use and wireless telephones are in full working order we can even steal a march on Father Time. How nice it will be for wifey safe at home, getting the lunch ready, to get into communication with her hubby who is being whirled through the air and ask him with the aid of her wireless telephone if he would like onions in the soup or cold potato salad for lunch somewhat in this style:— "Hullo dear, where are you now? "Hubby—Just over Parliament Buildings, talking about the new Aerial Company's Bill. "Wifey—What time will you be down? "Hubby—Coming right away dear. "Wifey—Well, I just rung up to ask you if you would like the potatoes fried or baked this morning, and Oh! baby's cut another tooth. Where did you say you were? etc., etc." * * * What a good thing it is that we have such a paternal council to look after our welfare and morals in Victoria. I notice that there is to be no racing this year unless the promoters go to the council and ask them if they may race, and that they will bc good boys and not permit gambling or anything like that, and that they will abide by the rules made for their guidance by an all-wise and august council. Sixty days was certainly a surfeit of racing, but it is going from one extreme to the other to have none at all, Bye and bye when the saloons all close at 8.30 and everyone must be in bed by nine, lights out nine-thirty, what a nice, well-behaved city we shall have. There will be no Theatre, no amusements of any kind, and we shall all sit round and mope and condole with one another on the wickedness of the outside world. * * * The sea in front of the Empress is beginning to look like a minature Covvcs, two or three smart little yachts have appeared during the week and anchored in the bay.

The pictures are exceptionally fine, ie subjects well chosen from among ie latest production of the best film lakers. The whole performance will be re- led and elevating, combining admir- ily instruction with amusement. The /izard of Oz will be the especial :ature of interest to the young folk, his is an exceptionally fine film, and Dth the subject and music a delight ir old and young. A naval review Spithead is another subject of es- xial interest to all just at this time, here are also several other fine cture subjects being shown. A new )ng very catchy and fascinating. The management have invited the lildren of the Orphanage to the en- :rtainment. New Grand Theatre For the Grand next week, there will Loro and Payne, the comedy across, Hamilton Hill, the celebrated ustralian baritone, who has been in- oduced into vaudeville at a big sal- y, Haverley and Wells a sprightly 10 in songs ancl dances, and Bessie aeon ancl Company, who will appear "Deborah's Wedding Day." Loro and Payne head the bill ac- irding to advance notices. They ill be one black man and one white id show before a Mississippi river ene. In the Grand programme next week ere will be Hamilton Bill, an Aus- lian baritone soloist, who is making iinited tour in vaudeville, prior to s American concert tour. Mr. Hill ssesses one of the most phenomenal ices known to the music world, and s combined with an exceptional :hniqtte in his renditions of high iss numbers makes him the most tinguished vocalist in vaudeville. >m Haverley ancl Evelyn Wells is idedly distinctive entertainers, eir work is lively and full of those le surprises that always delight an ience and their eccentric manner isms are catchy and original. The conversation introduced between Mr. Piker and Miss Kidder, the characters portrayed by this clever duo is exceedingly amusing and interesting. These players are sure to prove winners with the patrons next week. Betsy Bacon, a bright young comedienne recently signed by the Sulli- van-Considine Circuit, will be seen in the successful playlet, "Deborah's Wedding Day." The story is replete with comedy and interesting situations. Miss Bacon is pretty, talented and thoroughly competent to present the bewitching southern girl Deborah, whose love for a yankee is the theme of the little play. The supporting company is adequate and the entire production most complete. The Grand will have the usual stock features as well this week. Pantages Theatre There have been during the week, at this Theatre, some strong attractions, as was testified to by the full houses. Electro, the human dynamo, gave an entertainment which was thrilling; the same voltage passes through him as is used to electrocute criminals and he seems to enjoy it. "The Devil in Possession," as portrayed by Miss Kingsley and Mr. Munson, is a bright and sparkling little comedy. The sisters Barton in their folk and fancy dancing were much appreciated, and Charles Higgins in his violin selections was a treat for music lovers. The pictures were up to their usual first class standard. Empress Theatre This theatre still continues to have bumper houses and the pictures are interesting and original. One of the features at this Theatre are thc appropriate musical selections which accompany the pictures and which are played by Mr. G. A. Lavelle himself. Every Friday amateurs are given chances to display their dramatic abilities for which cash prizes are given. Romano's Theatre Some of the famous "Imp" films have been exhibited at this Theatre this week, ancl have proved perfectly clear ancl vastly entertaining. Also some Pathe Freres films. Company D to the rescue is a western drama, which is very exciting and realistic. Majestic Theatre The popularity of this bright little Theatre still continues and during thc week some first class films have been exhibited. Next week some new films of an unique character will be certain to attract large audiences.

BLAKEMORE, Editor $ The Man * of Hate * (Continued from a Previous Issue) "Mr. Acherson?" he said, in a tone of accusation rather than interrogation, I thought. "Yes," I replied, crossing to my chair. "I called at your house, and they sent me on here," he remarked slowly, closing the door behind him. "I don't think they meant to suggest you should call upon me tonight, as they know I am detained by excessive pressure of business," I returned. "Can you come again tomorrow?" "I am here now," he said with a strange smile, and came towards me slowly. "I see you are," I snapped, "but I'm busy. However, perhaps you can explain what you want with me in a few words." "In two words," he replied pointedly; "Robert Benton." I sat looking up at him tentatively. "Robert Benton," he repeated, standing a paCe away from my side, with his head drooping, his hands thrust into the pockets of his jacket, and staring into my eyes aggressive- ly. "And who the blazes may he be?" I demanded impatiently. "Never heard the name, Mr. Acherson, eh?" hc inquired satirically, dropping into the chair at the side of my desk. "What is it you want?" I asked desperately. "Where is my wife?" he inquired softly. "Your ?" I gasped in amazement. "Where is my wife?" he repeated hoarsely, his strange eyes dilating. "My dear fellow," I said soothingly, realising in a flash that I had a lunatic to deal witK "it is quite out of my line to take up an inquiry of this kind, but if you will leave me your name and address, I'll see what can bc done and will communicate with you." "Never mind where she is," he responded, with a wave of his hand; "I've done with her, and have come to reckon with you. Doubtless you arc wondering how I tracked you down in so short a time. But I had planned it all carefully, so that I knew exactly what steps to take the moment I was free." "How did you get out?" I asked impulsively. ^ "Never mind how I got out," he returned sourly, with another wave of his hand. "I am"here. I hunted up your name in the directory; I called at your house, and they sent me on here." "Let's go out and have a drink!" I exclaimed reartily, jumping up. I was not inclined to continue this tete-a- tete with a lunatic who clearly imagined he had an old score to wipe out. "No, you don't!" he cried, springing to his feet and threatening me with a revolver. "You don't escape me now, by Heaven!—after throwing me into a madhouse in order to rob mc of my wife, you don't escape me now, Benjamin Acherson!" I relapsed into my chair weakly.

I am not usually lacking in personal courage, but my situation seemed desperate. If my mad visitor intended to murder me, which seemed probable, there was little to deter him. I was alone with him on the fourth floor of the big building. "Sit down," I said hoarsely, trying to speak firmly. "You are labouring under a misapprehension as to my identity; my name is not Benjamin but Barry.

First you try to draw me out into a public place, with drink as a bait. Then you seek to plant a cousin on me, in the hope that I shall rush off foaming at the mouth on a wild-goose chase.

The Rich Portland District Local capitalists have recently floated a new mining company in the widely known Portland Canal Camp under the name of The Keystone Mining Company, Ltd. The The Keystone Mining Company own two claims nn Glacier Creek known as the Keystone and Keystone Fraction, adjacent to the famous M. K. Rodgers, Silver Bow and Lakeview Groups. Thc Keystone Group were staked in 190" by Angel Joins, who lias consistently developed them, as his means have allowed, ever since that year. Some valuable samples ol ore have been taken from the property, and assays have been as high as $70.16 tn the ton in gold, silver and lead values. The new company intend tn con- tinue the work commenced by Angel Jones at the earliest possible dale, and a little further work should prove beyond dispute the undoubted value nf the Keystone property. The Provisional Board of Directors consists of thc following well known men, C. Scott Whiting. A. J. O'Reilly. \V. F. Stevenson, E. P. Colley, and V. A. G. Flint, while the local brokerage firm of Flint & Bromley have been appointed Fiscal Agents for the sale of the stock, and are now offering the stock to the public at 15 cents per share. The new company deserves support from local people, who want a good run for their money and want to par- 1 ticipate in the great boom of thc Portland Canal Camp.

An electric iron that will satisfy a laundryman will satisfy anyone. It must be able to stand up under continuous service, be hot enough to handle all classes of work, use the current economically, be convenient, easy to handle and quickly repaired. This is an exact illustration of the Hot Point Electric Iron. It makes ironing pleasant work. It saves money, steps, time, trouble, temper and perspiration. It makes the "maid" contented because she can iron faster and better and have more time to herself. It is a wonderful boon to the "mistress" because she can attach it to the electric light socket on the back porch during the war weather and iron her costly lace, that she will not trust to other hands, in comfort. Most up-to-date women now-a-days carry an Electric Iron with them when travelling. It has become a necessity. For this, the "Hot Point" has many commendable features. Call here and see it in operation. We allow ten days' free trial to Victorians. mm A W_\f PRICES: $5.00 and $5.35 Complete B. C Electric Railway Co., Limited Cor.

If this is the case, it seems a great pity as the water front in the Summer months is extensively used. * * * I quite agree with the remarks I noticed in a local daily the other "day with reference to the poem on the death of the King, by the Poet Laureate; that a Censor should be appointed to scrutinize the productions. A poem such as Alfred Austin, the Poet Laureate, gave to the world on the death of his late Majesty would have been better left unsung, than given to the world as a memorial to a great Monarch. * * * I went out into the wilds to a picnic the other day. Personally, I don't enjoy picnics; it seems so much easier to havc one's tea in the back garden watching the cat gambolling round the flower beds and reclining in an easy chair. There always seems something to do at a picnic, either making a fire or washing up plates, or looking for the butter; the butter always seems to go astray, also the salt. These two articles invariably get lost, ancl either commingle with thc mustard in one sticky mess at the bottom of the basket or disappear altogether melted by the heat of the sun. * * * Victoria is having quite a boom just now judging by the number of new companies of all kinds springing up here, Land and Estate Companies predominating. The new buildings going up in all directions also give a prosperous air to the city. Most visitors to Victoria are struck with the beauty of the place, and the Empress Hotel which is a model of comfort and what an hotel should be is one of the chief attractions. Motor cars are increasing in numbers and soon we shall have to increase the police force to deal with the surplus traffic, and the corner of Yates and Government streets will be a second Picadilly with the gentleman in blue holding up his hand tn divert the traffic in the right direction. * * * The reward offered for information leading to the apprehension of the silly and wanton imbeciles who ring the fire alarm bells should lead to their capture and a salutary sentence would probably have the effect of putting a stop to this kind of senseless joke. Fire is bad enough when it is a reality and to bring out men, horses, and wagons for a practical joke is a thing which lacks humour and reason. Apropos of fires, the Fire Brigades in Vancouver and in this town compare favourably with any in the world. The first day I was in Vancouver I was surprised at the way the streets were cleared, and the rapidity with which the engines, escapes, and motor cars literally flew down the street from all directions was nothing short of marvellous. There is something in a fire which makes everyone hurry to get there; what it is I have never fathomed but the attraction is undeniable. ofa *"**£%<* Provincial Fruit Growers The re-organization of the Provincial Fruit Growers' Association, during the conference of representative fruit growers recently held at Kamloops, will result in benefit to the fruit growers of the Province. It is essential to the success of thc industry that there should be some common ground on which fruit growers can meet each other and work out the great problems involved in producing a uniformly high grade of fruit, properly packed, and distributed by efficient transportation facilities to the best markets. This Association is intended to bring fruit growers together on such a common basis, for mutual aid and assistance along the lines involved in better marketing of our fruit. It is thus really an educational force, but is to be valuable also in securing supplies at lowest prices (send for price list to the Secretary) and in bringing the greatest force to bear in transportation problems. The work of the Association for the present season will be along the following lines: (i) A price list of supplies will be sent to members. This can be used to secure good supplies at the lowest prices. (2) A list of wholesale and retail distributors of our new fruit is being prepared for distribution in the next few_weeks. (3 Crop reports of the province and of our competitors, especially Oregon, Washington and Ontario, will be distributed monthly, or oftener, if deemed advisable. The Association is issuing a list of shippers and shipping Associations of the Province for distribution among the wholesalers. If you are not included, kindly write, stating amount of fruit available. (4) The Board of Horticulture has kindly consented to give the Association the use of the weekly reports of Market Commissioner, J. C. Metcalfe, and these will be sent by wire or letter to affiliated Associations and individual members. (5) A monthly crop and market report of the world's fruit will be published. (6) Any Fruit Growers' Associations in the Province may affiliate on payment of a small fee, and thus secure the benefits mentioned above. If your district has no local Association, and needs one, the officer of the Association will be glad to help you start one on the best basis for success. (7) An annual conference will be held next year at Victoria, to which all members are welcome. This conference will be of great value to all fruit growers. Anyone interested in fruit growing can secure the above advantages by sending one dollar, the annual fee, to the Secretary. Because of the purpose and aim of this Association, it is the privilege ancl duty of every fruit grower to associate himself with it, and do his part in making it a success. The advantages of membership outweigh immensely the cost of the same. Every fruit grower should use his influence to make the Association a valuable one. R. M. PALMER, President, Kamloops. R. M. WINSLOW, Sec'y-Treas., Department, of. Agriculture, Victoria. One of the Leading U. 5. M. D.'S Dr .K. A. Norderling of 1684 N. Clark Street, Chicago, writes: "Among the great number of different Malt Tonics to he found in the market, I consider Carnegie's imported porter as holding the first place and can recommend it with pleasure." Fully forty people in every hundred in British Columbia at this season of the year positively need either good bottled porter or a doctor's prescription for a "builder up." It is a fact that every thirty-eight of these people will find Carnegie's Swedish Porter as good for them as any tonic a physician may prescribe... Their own doctor will probably tell them so because Carnegie's Porter, with all its rich nutriment and with all its tonic, nerve-steadying value makes the stomach do its work better, helps digestion, puts into the blood the kind of nourishment it can use best and helps supply the lack of blood that makes people anemic. Carnegie's Porter may be procured at any hotel, bar or restaurant. Get it for home use from your dealer. Only in bottles, but "splits" if preferred.

Victoria Schools e Editor of The Week: 3ir,—I am entirely in .sympathy :h your "caustic" correspondent, C. sore, and as I have a son who is fering considerably from this "kin- •garten" epidemic, may I add a few rds? This system of Home lessons which to be taught at home, and rented at school to the person paid to !ACH. For instance one teacher marked my boy's report " is •y backward with his arithmetic and |e-marked it: "That is precisely the ison he is attending school." Need's to say that report was repressed, a fresh one issued. s it any wonder that so many ldren are wearing glasses? Mine : working on an average till 10.30 :h night on their lessons by arti- al light. They naturally think it •y unkind of me that I will neither their elder brothers and sisters p them or do so myself. I am not ing to be "drawn" by a teacher's inuation that "so and so is back- rd" or that "such a one is far be- id so and so (who is much mger) in their lessons." I believe it lessons should be made thor- rtily comprehensible during the 100I hours, and in the time that is d for by, and due to the ratepay- 1. I would like to see more men [chers for boys, and a lot of the jssy" rubbish cut out of the cur- lulum, and its place taken by ldies, that will help them in their |ure life. Let them learn thorough- reading, writing (dictation will |p them both in writing and spelling they don't get that) and arith- |tic. Vnother thing the teachers are most [eless about, viz., the position of children at their desks. They sit cramped, sideways position, using ly one eye and their heads almost (ching their books. Does the Medi- Officer ever note that or its effect the children's eyesight? Yours truly, MATERFAMILIAS. Victoria, Bay ioth, iqio. ^Ir. Editor,—Since writing the ac- npanying I have received my boy's lort which is memoed as follows: nllie needs to concentrate his at- ption much more than he does on work in hand," and which I have |>wered as follows:— I'Dear Miss ,—Is Willie to lncentrate his attention' more on Iking paper toys such as he brought ■me last week, or on what? I think, pnit me to say, it is an utter waste time and money to fritter away |iool hours in that way when chil- en are not taught at school, sub- fcts they should be taught, and liich I do not intend him to be light at home by me at night. I am Irfectly willing to admit Willie Jites badly, but I can hardly won- Ir at that, from the specimen of his licher's 011 his report, and he knows |thing thoroughly (he was mixing the Spanish Armada, with the Ro- lin Invasion of England) but why |u should, as you evidently do, hold responsible for his inattention J school hours I cannot understand, lhe does not pay attention when he ■being really instructed, I should be lid if you would report him to Mr. linsby for punishment. But I should Ie to know if Mr. Winsby is aware Iw school hours are being abused, lillie evidently needs a man's firmer |nd as most boys do. "Yours truly, IP.

They bravely take their lary and then, like Oliver Twist, fk for more." T should be the last (•son in the world to say anyone is jerpaid. When they do their work that faithfully, T say, they have |ned all they get. Take for instance own family: One has a large sum long division ancl knows simply |hing of his or her tables.

ROBERT A. RENWICK, Deputy Commissioner of Lands Lands Department. Victoria, B.C., April 29th, 11110. apr 30 12 THE WEEK, SATURDAY, MAY 14, 1910 "1 The Cheapest City Realty in the West Is the distinction enjoyed by Victoria at the present time. Surrounded as it is with almost unlimited natural resources, with its beautiful climate and excellent harbor, the first port of call for Canadian trans-Pacific liners, as well as for boats from the South and the North, Victoria is receiving the attention of speculators and investors from all parts of the Globe. This last few months they have been buying, and are still buying the choicest properties Victoria has to offer. One of the greatest railroad men in the AVest, and one who has taken more than a passing interest in Victoria and Vancouver Island in general, said a few days ago: "Watch the South end of Vancouver Island. There will be an unprecedented rise in realty values, and the excitement will be fully warranted." Within the next few years, our most sanguine hopes of Victoria for that time will not only be realized, but eclopsed. It is up to you to ' Get in with the winners," "Boost for your home town," and share in the prosperity of the next few years. Below are a few carefully selected properties we have to offer. They are all in good locations, and in a direct line with civic improvements and the trend of development. They can be bought with a feeling of security for immediate and future enhancement of values. We recommend them as being Victoria's cheapest Realty bargains, and incidentally THE CHEAPEST IN THE WEST. Victoria West Trackage 165x117 FEET OF TRACKAGE, close to the Indian Reserve.
