There has been much criti- cism of the policy followed by the mayor in his endeavor to dispose of the city’s debentures. While he was away there were many discussions as to. the wisdom of his having under- taken the trip to England. Since his return there have been further discussions as to the wisdom of the application to the Provincial government for its consent guarantee the bonds. The mayor‘has arranged for a public meeting this evening, to when these ‘questions, and any arising out of them, can be openly discussed and _ fully threshed out. It is his desire that the citizens may have no misunderstanding as, to the present situation, and he has expressed his hope that all con- siderations of a_ political or personal nature will be put aside on the present occasion in order that the citizens may unite to further the interests of the municipality. The question under sideration certainly of the greatest imprtanoce to Prince Rupert, which is now about to enter, within another year, on the second and greatest stage of its development. The city is called upon to decide at what rate it deems it wisest to pro- gress, and in doing so it has to consider not only its present but its future needs. At the meeting this evening it. behooves every man who con- 1s wei Gae Wednesday, Aug. 20, 1913 ee feels the responsibility of his citizenship, every man who possesses anything of a public spirit, to attend. ~There has been much criticism of the mayor in the street, Let his critics now appear in the hall. We have, most of us, heard their condemnations of the mayor’s policy. Now let us hear them present the plans which they themselves deem would be best for the public interest.

The Evening Empire, which styles itself the paper that “always reliable,”’ published in its edition of yesterday nearly a column despatch regarding the sinking of the State of California supposed to be sent from Juneau, but an intelligent public not likely to be gulled to the extent of believ- ing the despatch to be a genu- is is ine one. The press telegraph rate from Juneau to Prince Rupert is 3 cents per word. Yesterday's despatch, therefore, cost the Empire just $44.73. It is rather surprising under such * conditions’ that the writer of the despatch did not give an anxious publie some informa- tion regarding the number of lives that were lost and the safety or otherwise of Prince Rupert passengers. Of course that was an unfortunate over- sight on his part. KING FERDINAND PUT PATHOS IN ADDRESS Says Bulgaria Was Pressed on All Sides by Her Treacherous Allies. Ferdi- Sofia, Aug. 14.—King nand yesterday issued a pathetic address to the army. In it he thanked his soldiers for the bravery and devotion they dis- played in the war against the “treacherous allies,’ and declared that their “efforts would have been crowned with success had not a series of political circum- stances paralyzed our strength.” “Pressed on all sides,” the ad- dress continued, “we were cbliged to sign the treaty of Bucharest, our country not being in a condi- tion to struggle against five neighbors. Exhausted and tired but not conquered, we had to furl our glorious standards until bet- fer days. Tell your children and your grandchildren about the gallantry of the Bulgarian sol- diers, and prepare them to com- plete one day the glorious work you began.” DRESS - EXCESS TIVE ALWAYS ENWED HE INDIANS SWMPLEL SLOVT |s aéLL HUMAN Neepss COAT AND PANTS We, CIVILIZ N 300Bs DONT KNOW Wridy REAL UFE £ MOIRA TOWNSHIP WAS IN GRIP OF FLAMES Conflagration Was Started by' Children Who Were Playing With Matches. l Belleville, Ont., Aug. 14.—The northern part of Moira township is in the grip of a fierce fire. Children playing with matches set fire to a barn on the Carr homestead, in the fourth conces- sion, and in a few minutes the building was reduced to ashes. Fanned by a brisk wind the blaze took the fences and field, which were as dry as tinder. Aid was hurriedly summoned by 4ele- phone and soon many neighbors were on the scene to do what they could to check the flames. The flames soon swept on to the ad- joining farm of Councillor Charles Holden. There is no water in the imme- diate vicinity, except an inade- quate supply provided by wells, and these were soon pumped dry. Milk wagons were then dis- patched to Moira cheese factory, more than a mile away, where there is running water. This af- ternoon the flames were raging uncontrolled in every direction. 18 All The Mosquitoes On The Reservation Scented Fresh Meat of the British embassy at St her mother, became engaged would never marry anybody under suspicion, romance to a happy ending.
