A common parlor match may fire the train that explodes’! the) the | dreadful sapper and miner work of deadly warfare; a work ac-| complishing application of force, or merely a spectacular oute | Last night in the West- holme Theatre a great audience saw the simple social compli-| an earth-rending peaceful civil dynamite or disastrous, engineering charge useful of industrial development or bursting of hot gases with a big noise. ment of an invitation to address a Canadian Club aet the Dominion, and even the Empire also, the naval policy Sir Wilfrid Laurier. “What are we doing to protect the magnificent wealth of our Province?” asked the Premier, and he answered himself: “Absolutely nothing! If war comes (and God forbid that it may), how do we stand? We have nothing! “At the naval review at Spithead I thought: “Isn't it a pity that Canada has no pretty strong unit of her own to help protect her coasts. “IT tell you that when it comes down to discussion of army and navy to defend our shores there is neither Jonservative, Liberal, Labor or Independent. We all just British through and through! “If you went over to London and saw the poverty there, and came back to Ganada witnessing the peace and plently that pervades the great Dominion, | tel! you you would never rest until Canada has a navy of her own!” These are Premier Sir Richard MeBride’s spoken in his address to the citizens of Prince Rupert last night. Comment upon them is quite unnecessary. All Prince Rupert, all British Columbia, all Canada, knows that Premier R. L. Borden is in England today on a mission closely related to the immensely important issue of the Dominion naval policy. All Canada knows, too, that Premier Sir Richard: McBride was @n Britain before Borden. Borden has not announced any naval policy, but McBride has—last night. And the naval enunciated by Premier Sir Richard McBride of British Columbia for the Canadian nation simply the naval of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. When Premier McBride Last Arrived Premier McBride arrived on the G. T. P, steamer Prince Rupert at 11 a. m., November 2nd, 1910, landing at the G. T. P, wharf. He was met by the Mayor aid Council, also the Conserva- tive Association deputation headed by William Manson, M. P. P. He met a delegation from Stewart, the executive of the Conservative Association, inspected the Government wharf, toured the city and addressed a meeting in the Empress The- atre, The seawall on the Provincial Government wharf opened yesterday by the Premier was only just completed when the Premier arrived in the city on his last visit, The Premier was accompanied by his wife, and a reception was given in her honor by the ladies of Prince Rupert. are own words poliey is policy | Tr re LYNCH BROS.

BARRIE, Sec. come to the new knight, premier of the province, George Tite read the address, which is else- where quoted. Premier’s Acknowledgment With no new happy phrase, but with his usual facility of ex- pression, the Premier acknow- ledged the welcome, and thanked the citizens for the address of welcome and for the framed bou- quet of dried blooms from Prince Rupert which was handed him for Lady MeBride, The Pre ier referred to his recent honor saying that he felt it had been bestowed on the provinee and its people also through him, and de- siring to uphold the honor as it should be upheld worthily. He referred with appreciation to Prince Rupert, and around of cheering greeted his address, Mention was made by the Prem- ier in especial manner of Mr. W. J. Bowser, to whom an ovation was given as he rose to speak a few words in reply. With a good deal of humor Mr Bowser acknowledged the com- pliments paid him by the Prem- ier and the crowd, and while no- ticing that he had reeeived noth- ing more than appreciation, and eyeing the Premier's magnificent moese-skin, the Attorney Gen- eral added that none more high- ly than himself appreciated the honor the premier by His Majes- ty. (Cheers). Opening of Wharf All that remained now for the Premier was to open formally the government wharf, which he did with much greater ease than had been his acceptance of the rush of compliments showered upon him in the eitizens’ ad. dress. He referred with a touch of humor to the fact that it was two years since he had been here d even that time back urgent calls had been made upon him lo have the wharf completed. He had felt that he could not sibly venture to show face again in Prinee Rupert without having a wharf to give the eilizens, Bo here he was, (Cheers and laugh. soil pos. ter), He spoke of the difieulties ght on this wharf-opening occa- sion to the wharfside by the C.P. Rh. Prineess May, and, his old friend Captain MeLeod, who is known the whole travelling world of the coast. He then declared the wharf opened, and hoped that it might stand solid a testimony to the efficiency of the adminis- tration which provided it, until Prince Rupert is a eily of hun- dreds of thousands of happy and contented people. (Great cheer- ing The Premier then drove off up town in an auto, attended by several others with prominent citizens.
