H. Bayne The Redistribution Bill A Prince Rupert paper an- nounces that when the redistribu- tion bill is introduced, part of Omineca district will be included in Prince Rupert district. This is a matter of the greatest import to the people of the west end of Omineca, and it is worthy of the most serious consideration. There is much to say in favor of Hon. T. D. Pattullo as a rep- resentative. He has always shown a good deal of interest in this section and has always lent a sympathetic ear whenever ap- proached in the interests of the district. While we have the word of Hon, John Oliver, premier of the province, that the only idea of the redistribution bill is to give a more equitable representation in the legislature, it might be as well to ascertain just what effect the proposed change will have. One man’s opinion is not always exactly correct in the eyes of the majority, and the present is the time for the majority to speak. achievement, possibly, is his most recent. In small favor in his own country, the ‘‘little Welsh- man” found the most suitable outlet for his dynamic energies ina tour of the United States. There he has, according: to —press reports, by his marvellous oratory and wonderful personality, won over the people to the reedgnition of the faet that their duty lies in aiding in settling the reparations question in Europe. A greater achi#vement, in the light of the erying need for world stability, could not be well imagined. Christmas is Near |. Christmas is less than two months away. Probably many hardly realize that summer has gone.

Pre- pare for Christmas. Start now. No use saying ‘‘Aw, we will do nothing’ this year, times are too hard.’ *You know you will, always have and always will. You will sacrifice much at Christ- mas for your friends and child- ren. Then why not start now and save all the. disappointment the unprepared experience every year? Mission Seems A Laudable Proposal, But— ‘' H.M, Beach and “my partner, ”’ P. O. Beaugart, recent visitors to the district, have been in Vic- toria asking the provincial gov- ernment to build a wagon road into their mining property in the Omineca district, a distance of 200 miles. The mining men state that the proposed road would also open up much new territorv for settlement, while the mine forces would consume some of the pro- duce the proposed settlers pro- posed to produce. Yet 200 miles through a new district are some miles and the biggest trouble in DENTIST i Rooms 4, 5, &, ..

In his for- mal participation in the inaugur- al exercises, Dr. J. D, MeLean, minister of education, informed an interested and enthusiastic audience that he himself taught school at Mission from 1896 to 1900. He supplemented this bald statement and a number of anec- dotal references to his earlier career as an educationist, by sim- ilarly informing his:‘audience that Mr. Gillies, assistant superinten- dent of education, also taught at Mission from 1889 to 1895, And it is a singular coincidence that Mr, John Catherwood, the mem- ber for the district, was the first school teacher at the same place, and that was forty years ago. .
