Northern B. C. timbermen are
sending, we ‘understand, 4 ‘fioral
tribute to Ottawa to bé placed
on the desk of the. member for
Skeena and also instructions to
an undertaker to see that a ‘suite
able parade is pulled off, It is the
belief, we understand, that the
Skeena member passed away im-
mediately after his famous motion
referred to a week or so ago, and] }
which we are informed ‘on ‘hel |
highest authority” Jerry MeGeer
wrote. out for him, The local
member, befure his passing, was,

apparently gloriously ignorant of

the fact that while Jerry was pre-
paring phoney motions for him,
southern B, C. interests were
slipping fir timber into all pov-
ernment contracts in northern B.
C., the home of the finest hem-
lock timber in the world. Thus
northern. miils are idie while the
southern mills are busy. It is
not yet announced whether a by-
election will be held in Skeena
before the next federal general
election or that the, riding shall
continue as at present. _Hon.Dr,

Considerable progress has been
made by Dr. Wrinch, M.L.A., on
his scheme for distributing milk
from the interior through a cen-
tral depot-at Prince Rupert. On
Wednesday afternoon the Board
of Trade at Prince Rupert went
the
Skeena valiey farmers want it
and New Hazelton favors it and
the Telkwa farmers want it. It

is now 2 question whether the

unwarranted interference of a
provincial government emplovee
can prevent the interior being
upanimous. The milk distribu.
tion depot is the solution of the

|{ dairy industry in the interior and

the solution of the farmers’ finan-
cial problems and it should re-
ceive the enthusiastic support of
the entire population irrespective
of polities or public. employees,

Farmers are justly concerned.
