Vou. I. SaruRpAY, OcToper 12, 1912, No. 6.

Ambitious to become the metropolis of northern British Colum- bia, Prince Rupert is making a somewhat tardy effort to secure the goodwill of interior portions of the district, and is seeking to obtain support for a general exhibition, to be held next year, The people of Hazelton and the Bulkley Valley, } In general, are inclined to the belief that Prince Rupert might have done much to assist i in the development of this district, which must, if the terminal town isto attain the position for which it ig aiming, be the greatest contribu- tory source of business for Prince Rupert. Instead of seeking to further the settlement of this district and the exploitation of its great resources, there is only too much reason tu believe that at least some of the people of the coast town have taken the opposite course. No great harm has been done, perhaps, the Northern In- terior being goad enough to come to the front without assistance from Prince Rupert; but the fact that such assistance hag been withheld has created an unmistakable prejudice against that town, which its people can only overcome by adopting a consistently fair course in dealing with this district and its affairs.

It is to be hoped that the projected fair will be Successful, andi a the people of Hazelton will undoubtedly do their part to make it so if the plans of the promoters are such as-to assure equitable treat- ment to every part of the big district which should be represented,

Trade regarding the establish- ment.of a shipbuilding industry in British Columbia was that

raised by Mr. J. J. Shalleross, president of the Victoria Board of Trade. Such an industry on

the cities of the Pacific coast, he

said, would be a great gain when the time came that public works expenditure was diminishing. | That is a serious matter, and one which The Monetary Times has also dwelt upon previously. -

We must recognize that in ad- dition to the share of prosperity buiit upon heavy borrowings, a fair measure of Canadian pros- -perity is due to large expendi- tures on public works and local improvements, Comparatively new towns and cities have been obliged to install water, sewer- age and electric light systems, Sidewalks have been built, muni-f cipal street railway systems con-

structed, roads paved and many].

The citizens of the provinee, the provincial government and the Dominion authorities might with advantage confer . on, the matter,--The Monetary Times of
