On telegraphic advices from Prince Rupert, fifty lots have been reserved on First street and Broadway, two blocks east of Main, for railway employees who will remove from the terminal city to Smithers in the spring: This doubtless means that many residences will be erected in that vicinity in the near future, Other Sections are being built up, and two months from ‘now visitors will have more cause than ever to marvel at the rapid: growth of the town. The improvement of streets in the business section was the chief. subject dealt with at the regular meeting of the Citizens’ evening. The secretary read a letter from Wm. Manson, M.L.A., in which the member expressed his willingness to further the ef- forta of the citizens to secure the needed improvements, al- though he wae doubtful as to the possibility of procuring the neces- sary funds from the government. every phase of the subject was|: considered, it was determined to}. ask the provincial ‘ government]: roadways throughout the busi-|- ness section, and Messrs.
