Vol. vii. No. 11. PRINCETON, B.C., SATURDAY, JUNE 9, \\ 906. $2 a Year, in Advance k 1 SCHOOL HOUSE TOO SMALL. A petition addressed to the trustees of Princeton school district is being circulated among parents and taxpayers "in which prayer is made for a larger school building. It is pointed out that the insufficiency of air space in the building now used for twenty-five scholars is a menace to health. The signatories ask that the trustees will proceed with due haste in the matter so that a proper schooi house may be provided by the end of the summer vacation. The necessity for a larger building is readily noticed by a visit to the school during a session, the close, vitiated atmosphere and the accommodation being strongly in evidence. Provision must be made in the proposed building for a rapid increase of school population due to the onward tread of civilization and the approach of the railway. SEEING THE COUNTRY. Price Ellison, M.P.P., and J. C. Camp bell, of Vernon, arrived in Princeton Thursday morning from Otter Flat They drove from Vernon via Grande Prairie and Nicola to Aspen Grove where they are interested in a group of mining claims of which the celebrated Copper Standard is chief. They have unbounded faith in the Grove as a mining camp. Its only drawback for the time being is lack of transportation, which they think will soon be supplied by the C.P.R. Mr. Ellison was in Princeton many years ago. He sees many changes, but the beauty of the place remains as of yore. "Great country ! Mineral everywhere : I have always believed since the first day I saw it that a splendid future was in store for it," ejaculated Mr. Ellison as he turned over some attractive mineral specimens and asked to be given one of red paint. He is one of the big land lords of the Okanagan and can't help being a mil lionaire with the demand for small fruit holdings still increasing. In the legislature he sits to the right of Mr. Speaker but is an independent Liberal Conservative, so much so that he often gives the premier a bad spell of nervous prostration when he touches on certain railway questions. Mr. Campbell may establish 4 a business here a little later. INMATES FOR A ZOO. J. Gray and A. Allison captured four coyote pups recently which they intend to make pets of and train for their own amusement, They know where there is a quarry of about a dozen or more which they may be able to dispose of at good prices. Dr. Cecil French, naturalist, of Washington, D.C., advertises for grizzly and white bear cubs, inland white bears, marten, otter, beaver, goats, wild swans, geese, cranes and other wild animals and birds. The coyote might look well in a zoological park but he is certainly no attraction here except for a bullet. m FOR LIFE / rcfps Forever on the TjOBcrTyof-TwBTot'thc Guilty Robbers.

FREE TRADE IN RAILWAYS. It is an indication of the high appreciation of the resources of . Princeton district when the railway . king of the continent invests at : a close estimate $100,000 in land ' in this section. No greater recommendation could be given Princeton than the fact of these large invests ments having been made by one ; who has had all kinds of experts and specialists on the ground to report on those resources. The . far sighted President of the Great Northern by purchasing now does it more cheaply than he would a -year later and he also lays the ' foundation for future tonnage out of his possessions. There are people who knock Mr. Hill's enterprise and are jealous of his success. They shout "Canada for the Canadians" and rave because of their impotence to despoil him of his wealth. So far as President Hill is concerned he has shown more loyalty to Canada in the development and upbuilding of it than all his narrow-minded detractors combined. American capital is equally as good and just as welcome as any other in the development of the Princeton district. It must be gratifying to the people of Canada to see President Hill, a citizen of the United States, investing millions of money in the country. He has set a splendid ■example of enterprise and public- spiritedness which might well be copied by Canadian railway magnates and corporation. How different his policy to that of some bonus-hunting Canadian railway presidents who have bled the people white that they might swell the coffers of their companies. Not content with a large cash bonus these rapacious gentlemen ask for and get land grants which they never earned; they make use of threats to frighten municipal cor porations and governments into giving them freedom from taxation for as many as twenty years ; they always have a beggar standing at the door of parliament asking some favor or concession for their hungry company. President Hill has never asked a dollar from the people of Canada. He offers to spend $30,000,000 in developing.the coun try west of Winnipeg to the coast if parliament will only grant him the ordinary privileges without any subsidy. He has already ordered 26,000 tons of steel rails from Canadian rolling mills which could as well have been procured in his own country. Yet some monopolistic and hireling newspapers are always busy trying to persuade the public that Mr. Hill is going to rob Canada of its trade and divert it south of the international boundary line. If there is a market for Canadian produce south of the international line Mr. Hill is the man to haul it as cheaply as anybody. There is a possibility of the V., V. & E.; going to the coast through Washington as it has to be constructed and operated on a business basis. The grades as at present known in Hope mountains can be bettered and for about fifty miles beyond that range there is not enough tonnage in prospect to pay for axle grease that distance. Under those conditions it would not be surprising if the line went south into Washington where there is tonnage all the way. All the knocker press would howl if the line should deviate. These knocker-graft newspapers see no harm in Canadian railroads going after trade into American territory but it is all wrong when an American road dares to enter Canada in competition with existing systems and bid for traffic. It would be the maddest act of man to put a straw in the way of Mr. Hill's great undertaking. Every industry in the country will benefit by the inflow of this foreign capital. If Canada cannot, for the time being, have free commercial trade, it can in lieu thereof at least have free trade in railways. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Some malicious attacks have been made on the member for Yale- Cariboo by one or two of the more rabid partizan press. He is charged with various sins of omission and commission which have no foundation in fact. It is alleged that he has neglected the interests of his constituents by not replying to certain correspondence. Mr. Ross has won golden opinions from many independent sources for the energy and promptitude with which he has conducted legislative' matters affecting his constituency. The telephone line, improved mail service and important railway legislation are all due to the tact and perseverance of Mr. Ross. The extension of the telephone line to Copper mountain and the Boundary was not deemed advisable at the time they were asked for and time has justified the advice given the department. It is the duty of the game ward ens and justices of the peace in this section to see that offenders of the game laws are promptly dealt with. Reports of deer slaughter for bear bait and grouse for baiting small traps are common. NOTICE. TENDERS WILL BE RECEIVED up to SATURDAY the 9th day of June, 1906, for the purchase of Saw Mill outfit.
