'.'\"-'��������������������������� Comment and Protest on Local Events There cannot be any question -as to the wisdom of the City Council in deciding that the way to handle the deficit in connection with the erection and-completion of the Enderby-school is by submitting to 'the ratepayers a by-law to raise the required amount by a loan. To pay the $1,500 now past due, out of current revenue, would not only be contrary to good business, but it would also be placing upon the ratepayers a direct tax of two mills this year that they should not have to pay. The underlying principle in all town building is to do all public improvements on money raised by a loan on the credit of the city, extending over a period of ten, twenty or thirty; years.\" In this way the ratepayers of any one particular period are not made to pay for something that those who-come aftercreap the benefit of. ' In other words, the ratepayers coming later, and for all time during, the life of the loan, pay their proportion of the cost of any public improvement for which money was raised by loan. And, if the sum of $1,500 were paid out of current revenue, and the tax rate increased the necessary two mills to raise this amount, it would mean that the school grounds would still be incomplete. How much better it is for the city to' take up the ques tion from the broad standpoint of the public interest, and submit a bylaw to raise, not only enough to pay off the existing indebtedness, but also to finish the grounds and make the school property what it ought to be.- There'*is( not a finer school building in the province than that erected in Enderby. It is one of the biggest and best assets the City and District of Enderby possesses, and it seems to us that it would be the poorest kind of business to allow the grounds to remain in, their present condition when the pittance���������������������������something like a third of a mill a year on the present assessable property���������������������������would pay oft all indebtedness and put,the property in Al sliape. . We have every confidence that the ratepayers of Enderby will support the City Council in this move. It would be to our lasting -discredit to let the good effect of this fine school building be spoiled by being surrounded by grounds 1:hat are unfenced and left to grow up in weeds and wild grass. Under the hands of a landscape gardener, these grounds could be.. laid out most admirably, (as was originally intended by the public spirited Board^ of School Trustees who. took upon themselves the task which they all but. carried through). It would then be up to tne Bchool officials and the scholars to keep the grounds up to a standard compatible with the imposing building placed at their disposal. That they would do this goes without question, for then they Would have something to work for and an - object to -achieve. - .Ten minutes a day spent by the teachers with their classes in a systematic .effort to learn the mysteries of Nature in the garden, would be more valuable to all concerned than hours spent learning of Nature's ways out of a book. To raise $3,000���������������������������the amount required to pay off the indebtedness now past due and to complete the grounds���������������������������would mean the addition of a third of a mill to the tax rate. And this additional third of a mill would not come in on. this year's levy, but would start next year.' The amount raised by this third of a mill levy would be sufficient to pay interest and sinking fund during the tenure of the loan.\" The amount would not be felt by any one; each property owner, whether he is oi today or comes upon the scene five or ten years- hence, would then be. paying his proportion of the cost 01 the improvement and all .would be. getting the benefit of it, for themselves and their children or children's children. By all means, let us think of nothing less than the full, amount required to complete the school job, grounds and all. EARLY MORNING DOINGS Last Thursday morning- between 12 and 1:30, Provincial Constable Oland and -City Constable Bailey had. an interesting5 time bringing'an Indian and a squaw and a,'baby to the Pro vincial lock up. Early the previous evening Constable Oland heard some whisky sounds coming from the'Indian cabin situated on the_riycr bank ncross the bridge. On-investigating he discovered seven Indians in the .cabin, three under the influence of liquor and/ four sober. Two of thc these were women. He attempted to place the man under' arrest. He resisted and got away by the aid of the women. Then/after much parleying, the Constable came \" to town for assistance. He had to walk, for the Indinas hid his horse We have before us pen and ink sketches of what transpired, as gathered from the evidence taken before Magistrate Barnes. One of these shows'the Constable in the mix-up with the Indian and the) two women holding, him to prevent him placing the handcuffs on the prisoner. Another shows Constable Bailey after the Indian and one of' the squaws after Constable Bailey, with a club, and the daughty officer threatening to' \"knock her block off\" if she came any nearer.. With this \"she\" skiddooed for cover. The next picture shows Annie in the bottom of a democrat with the Constables driving to the lock-up. The next day the Indian was fined $10 for being drunk.and resisting arrest, and the squaws $5 each. v 'J THE ENDERBY PRESS AND WALKER'S WEEKLY Thursday, March \\ 9] 1914 ENDERBY PRESS Published every Thursday at Endet=by, B.C. at $2 per year, by thc Walker Press.

MARCH i9, 1914 A GOOD START MADE The balance sheet of the Enderby Growers' Association.'read before the shareholders' meeting in K. of P. Hall last Thursday evening, showed a loss in the first year's operations of $105.99. This is not as favorable as the directors would like to have had it. No doubt had they been better acquainted with the way of handling the business, and had known two months or more ago when they started selling flour and feed to mem- ' hers and the general public at so little above cost, they would then have added enough to the price to, have more than made up the deficit, j This could very easily have been j done. But, as was stated by Mr. j Little, president of the Association, I had this been done, it would have' been like taking from one pocket to j put into the other. The members of [ -\"trre-TsVssoeiat-ion^-^and^-ot-hers^recei-ved-T the benefit of the cheap flour and leed j prices, even if it did mean a loss to j the Association to have made thc j handling charge so low, and this < loss will have to be carried over, to be made up in next year's operations. No doubt, the directors of the Enderby Growers' Association have discovered -where - they-made-mistakes. No doubt, they will know better next year how to avoid these mistakes. It is encouraging that the loss in the first season's operations was not! more than the amount reported. It i is a good start, to have made thc ; initial mile with nothing more serious to overcome.

Walker Press 1 I ���������������������������/ Thursday, March 19, 1914 THE ENDERBY PRESS AND WALKER'S WEEKLY Redistribution Bill Giving B. G. Thirteen Members at Ottawa The proposed redistribution in. the Province of B. C. has been prepared and the map is now before the redistribution committee at Ottawa. The new map will divide the present con- stitutency of Kootenay into0East 'and West Kootenay. East Kootenay will comprise the Provincial ridings of Cranbrook, Fernie and Columbia. West Kootenay will comprise the ridings of Nelson City; Ymir, Ross- land City, Slocan, Kaslo and Revelstoke. The present ' New Westminster riding will also be divided. One will be called New Westminster, and will comprise the Provincial constituency of New Westminster City and Delta, and all that -portion of the Provincial electoral district of Richmond lying south of Burrard Inlet, excepting the municipalities'\" of Vancouver City,' South Vancouver and Point Grey. The electoral district of New'Westminster district will be composed of the ridings of Dewdney and \"Ohilli- wack, and all that portion of the Provincial^ electoral district' of Yale adjoining - the Provincial electoral districts'of Chilliwack and Dewrdney, bounded by a line commencing at the southeast corner of the Provincial- electoral district of Chilliwack 'and thence along the international boundary of the' Provincial electoral district of Similkameen, thence norther divided into two\" seats, though they are not yet named. One will consist of the local ridings of Cariboo, Lillooet, Kamloops and Yale, excepting that portion of Yale contained in the electoral district of New Westminster District as the same is above described, and including the whole City and district municipality of Salmon Arm. The other will consist of the electoral district oi Okanagan, excepting any portion of the city or district of Salmon Arm which may be contained therein, and the Provincial electoral districts of Similkameen, Greenwood and \"Grand Forks. % The thirteenth seat has not yet been named,-but\"it'will consist of the ridings of Alberni, Comox and all that portion of the Provincial electoral riding of Richmond south of the mouth of the east branch of the 'Squamish river at the head of Howe .Sound, thence in a -southerly direction along the easterly shore of Howe Sound to Burrard-Inlet. Mr. Ingram defended the packers against the charge , of responsibility for the high cost of living. Western Canada stood at the top of the list as a meat-eating country, and against; this stood th-'e fact that Western Canada daily faced an increasing population without increasing the supply of 1 ii live stock. This prediction was 'equally tme of the United States. Mr. Ingram condemned the indiscriminate slaughter oi calves. \" A half million had been killed during the past year, averaging a dressed weight of sixty pounds. If these calves had been allowed to live 18 months or two years, and had been fed, they would have yielded at least COO .pounds of beef'apiece, a sufficient quantity 'to have fed every man, woman and child in Winnipeg for six years. INCREASED TO 11 POUNDS I The Postmaster-General has announced that it has been decided to extend the weiglit limit on parcels post from 6 to 11 pounds, starting 'at once. The original intention was to allow three months to elapse be- ifore the weight of parcels was increased to 11 pounds However, the 'system is already working so smoothly and so satisfactory that it has been decided that the department is well prepared to cope with the in- ' creased business which is sure to follow the^extension of the weight. Thc new regulation is now in effect.

It's future growth and prosperity depends on these peo- Why should a man bring his family to Enderby ? Because Enderby offers liim opportunities to p rovide for then?���������������������������whether in a business way or farming. Enderby offers his family educational, social and pleasure attractions. It is very pleasant to live \"TfTTEriilcrbyT This scries of articles, \"Sinning Against Your Home Town,\" will deal with the subject in a big way���������������������������they will be written concisely and straight .from..the., shoulder to make it clear to everyone. The points brought out When this man brings his family here, he has in mind making it his home 'for good. He is going to spend all efforts .to-.-build up that home. Me is inverting his labor to provide for his family. A city built by men like this will always grow and prosper. \" The more, attractive he makes his horrre, the more valuable it becomes. Tn ten years, his'original investment will double and triple, if Enderby, as a whole, keeps pace with him. The merchant coming to Enderby to go into business, sees at a glanca that it is a hustling and bustling city. Its people work and are always improving. This makes him think���������������������������gives him confidence-���������������������������he sees his way of investing in a stock of goods and opens up to servo the people with the necessities or luxuries of life. He secures the best goods made. He wants to give thc people of Enderby the best possible at' a reasonable cost to them and a reasonable profit to himself. Thereby, one more store is added to the business end of Enderby. And so it keeps going, more and more people will be facts as found by over 500 of the leading merchants and business men in the West and Northwest. The message they will bring will be of personal interest to every man, woman and child in Enderby. They will show what will happen if we all continue to \"Sin against our hometown.' locating in Enderby and more and : more business concerns investing j money in goods and in the present ! and future prosperity of Enderby. ! And so we have a city going for- ! ward of its own volition���������������������������building j itself up���������������������������getting more prosperous! I and offering more opportunities to ; outsiders. This is what happens | when we are \"helping forward our ! home town.\" The local businessman | is patronized���������������������������he takes your dollar ! and puts it in an Enderby bank, He ! pays his rent with it to a local landlord���������������������������uses it in buying his personal necessities and those of his family, part of it goes for local amusements, And so the dollar stays; in Enderby, and accomplishes a great deal toward | or invests it in a lot for his home, the building of Enderby. One can easily see by that dollar going out of Enderby, a good many things would NOT happen���������������������������the landlord might NOT get all his rent���������������������������last year's suit would have to do for this year���������������������������the new addition to the homo would have to go, etc. All because that dollar went out of Enderby when it might have stayed at home. WEBSTER DEFINES SINNING AS \"VIOLATING DUTY\" It is the duty of every man, woman and child in Enderby to help build up thc city���������������������������to make it prosperous and make it grow���������������������������to encourage outsiders to come in. When you send east, or north or south or west to \"replenish your wardrobe\"���������������������������to purchase \"new furniture for your home\" ���������������������������when you send your money to mailorder houses���������������������������do you realize that you are \"sinning against your home town\"���������������������������that you are \"violating your duty\" to Enderby? Well,, you are. You are laughing at your local merchants���������������������������prolonging the needed municipal improvements���������������������������decreasing the value of your own property as well as that of your neighbor���������������������������-discouraging the most-worthy efforts to cater to your every wish���������������������������fooling yourself by sending that dollar out of Enderby. It is natural for every person living in Enderby to desire to purchase the best of all that makes life worth living. From a- personal standpoint���������������������������clothing, hats, underwear, food, confectionery and the innumerable pleasures and recreations so necessary to- balance one's existence. , Or, from your home standpoint, timber, stone and- cement to build ^vour^home^=\\\\dth^plumbing,_flooring, moulding, etc., to finish it off properly���������������������������furniture, appliances, furnishings to make living comfortable. No one gainsays you this privilege ���������������������������but would it not be better for you to buy these things in Enderby if you can supply your wants just as well and at the same price ? By doing this���������������������������by -keeping- -that ���������������������������dollar in~En;_ derby you encourage the development of the city of Enderby���������������������������your home town. By this action of ' yours in recognizing merit���������������������������you warrant the entrance of new industries, the expenditure of huge sums to start them. Such improvements attract attention to this city of yours���������������������������it attracts investments in its possibilities and its future probabilities. You are hurrying forward the time when Enderby will come into its own���������������������������when its advantages will be recognized. By keeping this dollar at home you are helping yourself���������������������������the coming generation and the future recognition of Enderby. We believe it is youn fluty to give this subject serious consideration. We ourselves believe it is so serious that we commend to your patient consideration the articles of this series, which will contain the experiences, ideas and suggestions of over 500 merchants and businessmen of the Northwest, as to what they think the result will be when we are no longer \"Sinning Against Our Home Town.\" >J I, tWBmWBBSESSEImW/m^mWBXi A ���������������������������i\\ of?

Hall last Thursday evening, by Mr. R. Robertson, manager of the Okanagan United Growers, Ltd., who declared' it to be criminal economics for the Okanagan Valley points to be importing meats from Australia and*butter from New Zealand. \"We should ship curt carloads \"bf beef, eggs, butter and pigs, instead of importing these .commodities,\" declared Mr. Robertson, during a discussion of' the marketing situation in general,\"'and. the hay market in particular, as affecting Enderby district this''year. It -is as bad a practice to grow all hay as it is to grow -all wheat, or all peaches, said Mr.v Robertson, for the man who does this'is sure to be caught 'at one time or another with his crop on his hands and the market glutted* '\\ Mr. Robertson pointed oufthat a solid basis of prosperity would never be attained by 'too- great specialization, that no district should devote itself entirely to apples,\" or entirely- to peaches, or entirely to hay. ' ��������������������������� - In calling the meeting to order, Mr. Little, president of the Association, expressed regret at/seeing so few. of the shareholders* present, though the membership \"now numbered thirty- eight. Mr. Little took it as a sign of satisfaction, among the��������������������������� shareholders that there\" were not more present; \"for surely , every -man .with a\\ kick would;have made it a point to' be present;\"-, ' ;' - ' \\- ' ' f'A motions-was. passed.?inviting' Mr'.

Mr. -Robertson,---being called upon to address the meeting, congratulated the Association on having come through with so little a-deficit, in view of the difficulties encountered during the first year of operation. Mr. Robertson then urged upon the growers the production' or quality rather than quantity as one of the certain ways to success. \"Some \"people\" claim that-the cooperative movement does away -with the individuality of - men and > districts,\", he \"said, \"and in a measure thac is true.. ��������������������������� But it is also _ true that the \"man .who grows a No. 1 ap- pie gets a No. 1 price, and'if any man can grow anything which is of such a faucy quality that it \"^ can command an 'extra priced we shall gladly give that'\"grower' ;a,- pool by himself, arid-'-individual returns^ on his product/ , We do- take \"care of the man who ���������������������������_ is \\ capable of producing goods of high\" quality'/' '���������������������������\" l'\"*\\'''��������������������������� -\\ During a discussion of' tbe\\.pres3nt situation of' \"��������������������������� the \"'\" hay\" market,'''' Mr. Pvobertson ' denied^., emphatically-- the reports' that' seine- \"Alberta'hay. had been- shipped- intbxthe- Okiahagah-and; sold* at' Valley ;\"'a He\" advised loweririg'7'6r the -\".pricet of \\ / The greatest gift to your family and yourself is an Edison Phonograph Disc or Cylinder It's the greatest musical enjoyment-bearer that has ever been made.

Had we foreseen the present slack market for hay we could have avoided the small deficit now showing by making a slightly larger charge - on feed and flour supplied to our members. As a.matter of fact we have handled about $4,000 worth of supplies with only a nominal profit. Had we made a larger charge' we could now have a surplus for a dividend to distribute among supply purchasers, biit the money would have come from their podkets, and the only difference would have\"'been a better book showing.\" . The balance sheet was adopted as read, following which a motion was passed- increasing the number of directors to six, and .naming Mr. Little as the sixth. Last year, though president of the Association and the Enderby representative on the board of directors of the Central, Mr. Little was not a director of the Enderby local association. The board of directors, with Mr. duce has been disposed of. Pay- mencs will be made at the average market price for the grade delivered. \"I fail to see the basis for the objections to the contracts. 1 The Central will in every case give liberal consideration to thc request of any member who, for any valid reason, wishes to be released, in whole or in party from\" \"bis \"contract.\"\" For \"instance, if a hay grower wishes to be released from his contract in order to feed .his hay to his own stock, thc Central will be delighted.

Walker Press THE ENDERBY PRESS AND WALKER'S WEEKLY Thursday, March \\ 9, 1914 Annual Meeting of Enderby Growers' Association Held Continued from fifth pafre fties, and our results, there is a clifl- ercnt spirit prevalent in the Valley, crops in competition .^nd-a reasonable spirit of support, from Salmon Arm on the north to Penticton on thc south. \"Pooling, as I understand it, is simply a system whereby the different districts help to bear each other's burdens. A No, 1 apple, whether grown at Enderby or Penticton, if put on the market at a certain time brings a No. 1 price.\" Mr. Reekie then cited the case of a dealer-' from Alberta who had told him that in 1913 for thc first time the grade and pack oi Okanagan fruit had equalled and even excelled that of the fruit shipped by American' competitors. Mr. Robertson here rose to answer a question as to what was considered part of their with us in our own market.\" Mr. Reekie then addressed the meeting and spoke rcmeniscently of his experiences years ago on the Manitoba prairies, when wheat was selling at 37 cents a bushel. \"The grain growers lived through those times,'-' he said, \"and many of them are now comfortably rich. We, in the Okanagan, will live through our times of trial as well, and succeed as they have succeeded. \"After all the criticism that has been heard this year -oi the locals, the directors, thc Central, the executive, and the manager, I find that, once the growers are brought to understand our situation, our difficul- I TELE PHONE ���������������������������r COMMUNICATION T ?

The directors, he said, had decided to adopt a system whereby vegetables and hay may be standardized. \"Certain districts raise onions which bring a higher price than onions grown in other districts,' said he, \"and in future these onions will be graded No. 1, and will bring to the growers thc higher price at which they sell, Timothy can also bo similarly graded and handled, as can every other form 01 produce.\" Mr. Robertson then outlined thc system being worked out this year, whereby the Central is saving money for the growers by thc purchase of seed supplies'. Mr. Fowler, vice-president of the Armstrong local, pointed out that only by co-operation could the growers help themselves and help others. \"Do not condemn thc co-operative movement because mistakes have been made by individuals or directing boards,\" he argued. '\"Though last season in some . cases growers who ���������������������������were not in the co-operative associations may have \"been paid more for their produce than members received, the members 01 the locals certainly received- better prices than they would have obtained under the old system, when each man was competing directly with all , his neighbors and with every other grower in the Valley.\" Mr. Robertson was asked by H. E. Waby as to the possibility of the Central handling the sale of wool, of which the tonnage is increasing rapidly. He expressed entire \\villingJ ness to undertake the sale of wool as soon as it is being produced in commercial quantities and can be sent, out in carload lots. Mr. Robertson then read a comparative statement showing the, per centage of No. 1 and No. 2 iruits shipped by the various locals, in all of which the Enderby local compared favorably with the highest. In crab apples Enderby led all points, the per centage of No. Is from this point being 97.
