That elevator was built in. Prince Rupert and tuken over hy the government. Tt was built. under the pretence by the government of the day that ‘the port of Prince Rupert wok) be one of the outlets for. grain from British North America, For the henefit of the house I wish to -stute that grain can be shipped to the Paci- Fle Goast more cheaply to pert than te any other port on the Pa- cifle- coast. dane consideration to seeing that at the kext renewal of the lease with the Wheat pool a certain nmount of wheat shall go through that elevator at Prince Itupert each year, I must, however, clillenge his statement that it is unfortunate that the elevtor is there, 1 repeat that it is cheaper to send wheet te Prince Rupert, owing to the, grade on the Grand Teunk Paci- fic railway than’ it is to any other port on the Pacifie coust from South Ameri- ca right up to Alaska, The minister Knows that and I hope he realizes that as 2 representative of British Colum- bin in the federal enbinet he does not represent only one portion of British Columida, but the whole province.” .
