Realizing Our Value

The business men of Prince
Rupert are beginning more fully
to realize the importance to them
and to the future growth of their
city the development of the great
interior country along the Ca.
nadian National Railway. Many
of the business men are planning

trips into the interior, not on
one-day holiday trips, but real
business visits, in order to get
acquainted with the people and
the resources of the interior,
They realize that the interior
must be developed before Prince
Rupert can become the city it is
destined to become in due course
One of the main charges given
the deputation from Rupert now
in Ottawa was to urge upon the
Dominion government the neces-
sity of greater immigration to
the Northern Interior of British
Columbia, both of settlers and of
capital. This policy has for a
number of years been advocated
by this paper. More people and
greater production is the only
way in which prosperity can be
secured. We wish the Prince
Rupert people the best of luck.

A Sign of Spring
Spring has come—nearly. The
old bear and the old grouch are
roaming the thoroughfares. The
world is upside down and never
can straighten out; the govern-
ments are all rotten; why aren’t
there men working on the roads;
guess there aint goin’ to be no
ferries nor bridges put in this
year; [f we don’t get some mines
pretty soon this will be a good
country to get out of; I ain’t-had
no sleep since yesterday and no
grub but a saucer of mush since
this mornin’ and 1 aint agoin’ to
eat nothin’ agin till t’night just
fer spite—think I’m: going work
twenty-four hours a day and git
nothin’ fer it they’s crazy, etc.,
etc. To all who feeland act and
talk as aboye we can only say
goodbye. The country will be
well rid of you.

for New Hazelton C.H. Sawle has
been appointed commissioner for

voters’ lists. Anyone not on the
list should apply at once to have
his or her name included with the
voters. There is eyery reason to
{believe that at the next session
of the. legislature to be held in
the fall a redistribution bill will
be passed and the allotment of
seats will be based on the num-

An Appreciation

In his eulogium on Dan Mc-

Gregor at the funeral service,
Rev. T. J. Marsh told one or two
incidents illustrating the kindly
character of the deceased which
are worth repeating.
Referring to the faithfulness
which Dan always showed to his
friends he said that whilst on
the field of battle with his regi-
ment Arthur Carr, another well-
krown loca] man, was badly hurt
with shrapnel. Seeing this, Dan
went to his assistance and at
great risk and with much labor
he carried him two miles back
to where his injuries could be
attended to.

In the year 1911 he, Mr. Marsh,
was stricken with typhoid, and
had to be removed from Kitsum-
kalum, where he then lived, to
Kitselas, in order to be near a
doctor. ‘Althhugh then foreman
of the tie camp, Dan was most
anxious to throw up his work
and devote himself to nursing
his ‘minister and only the in-
sistence of the medical man pre-
vented him doing so. But on
two occasions he walked the
whole‘ distance (eleven miles) to
Kitselas and back to visit his
sick friend.

Dan was for two years soloist
with the renowned Billy Sunday,
evangelist, and took considerable
interest in musical matters in

‘the town and especially in the

way of helping church services,
nis talents being always to be
nad for the asking.
