THE OMINE

CA HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER ‘9, 1925

- New Hazelton |

Geo. G, Bushby, the Conserva-

been in favor the construction of
the elevator at ‘Prince Rupert.
He is in line with Hon. 8. F, Tol-
mie, of Victoria, who supported
the votes for a million three hun-
dred thousand dollars for that
elevator. He believes it will op-
en up the Japan and other Asia-
‘tic marketa to the wheat and the
flour of the prairies, He knows
that to handle wheat the railway
will be compelled to make the
line through this country sate for
traffic. He knows that the big
country between Prince Rupert
and Prince George will not grow
export grain for three years yet.
He knows there will be no Peace
River grain shipped to Rupert for
three years anyway.

Sir Henry Drayton knew these
things when he called the Prince
‘Rupert elevator a political eleva-
tor. It was the price paid to the
Progressive party for its support
in the House. In those state-
ments only does Mr. Bushby agree
with Sir Henry,

The Conservative candidate re-
fuses to allow the Liberals to tie
a lot of their false statements
around his neck, He is not and
will never be a bling follower of
Sir Henry or any other man,

Need Better Phone Service

-If you elect Geo. G. Bushby on
October 29th one of his first ef-
forts will be to build up and im-
prove the rural telephone system
in the Northern Interior, with a
Start to be made in the Lakes
district, where the present raies
and tolls are more of a graft than
aservice. The Conservative can-
didate received something of a
shock upon his recent visit and
found the high annual tolls and
the high rates for loeal calls,

The telephones were originally
installed to render a service to
the pioneer settlers in recogni.
tion of the sacrifices. aceompany-
ing pioneering, There was no
intention of profit making.

The lines were built and then
rates were adopted which pro-
hibit anything like a general use
of the phone. The policy has re-
sulted in the defeat of the orig-
inal idea and the failure to make|'
@ profit or to even pay expenses.
The policy must be changed and
the rural residents must get a

The whole rural telephone sys-

on a basis that will make it of
the maximum benefit. Since the
telegraph service is supposed .to

harging modern rates... . .-1t)
