WHY NOT A BIG
FAIR NEXT YEAR?

  
  

: Ri An excellent suggestion § is
rn made by the Masset Leader
Bs which The News takes pleas-
‘ag ure in cordially endorsing
a with the hope that Prince Ru-
if pert people will give to it care-
ha ful consideration and see if
iLiad definite action could not at
vi once be taken upon it. The

suggestion is that the northern
part of British Columbia should
celebrate the completion of
construction work on our
transcontinental railway at the
time the Panama exposition is
in progress in San Francisco.
If this is taken up seriously
there is no time to lose. The
fact that the last Prince Ru-
pert fair was-a success, and
that thousands would take ad-
vantage of the means to view

the Canadian territory, re-
turning to their eastern homes
via the Grand Trunk Pacific

railway, should we have some
way of drawing them in this
direction, would. more than re-
pay any outlay... Our govern-
ments might be called on to
hold the annual Dominion
fair Prince Rupert and to
make liberal donations. The
Grand Trunk Pacifie Railway
Company would — contribute,
and it would be to the interest

Contract

It says that if a navy is needed
at all there are several rea-
sons why this country should
want to have one of its own,
and reasons, too, which we
believe will appeal to every
Canadian who has not been
side-issued—if we may be al-
lowed the expression—by af-
fluence and imperial decora-
tions. The first reason is, as
Hon. George E. Foster well
stated in an address in the
house in 1910, that no defens-
ive measure could prove of any
value unless it had its roots in
the soil; another is that if
there is need of defence Can-
ada cannot afford to rely on a
fleet stationed and in all likeli-
hood engaged many thousands
of miles away; but perhaps the
principal reason is that the
Canadian people would rather
take measures’ for their own
defence than place the burden
on the mother country. Can-
ada has outgrown the knee
breeches period and feels quite
able now to look after herself
without calling on the old
country. Not only that, she is
able and willing to lend a help-
ing hand to Great Britain if
need be, as she did in the South
African war.

NEW CONDITIONS IN BELFAST

Conditions have arisen in the
linen manufacturing centre at
Belfast and other Irish cities

whieh will result in a direct in-

the price which Toronto, Ontario,
and all Canadian consumers will
shortly be called upon to pay for
all grades and products of the
linen manufactories. During the
past few months the wholesale
importers have been confronted
with a situation which has re-
sulted in a general advance from
15 to 20 per cent., and it was
stated by one of the largest im-
porters that the recent change in|
the United States tariff on linen}
would send this price up at least |
another 5 cents on the dollar.
Social and laboring conditions |
in the large Irish centres are
chiefly responsible for the infla-
tion of prices, but one cause may
be traced home to Canada, and |

crease. from 20 to 25 per cent. in!

holding out to laborers, which
strip the old country mills of
their workmen, The siluation
has also created considerable
l anxiety among American import-
ers, who take a large percentage
of the products from the Belfast
mills.

Their representatives, recent-
ly returned from abroad, bring
back reports of many idle looms
in the Belfast mills. Much

jtrouble, they state, is being ex-

perienced by the manufacturers
in securing, the full number of
operatives. With the exception
lof a few mills located %n the
midst of the populous centres,
the factories have idle looms.
This problem, it is added,
causing the manufacturers much
worry, and the question of its
speedy solution is a matter which
will have a direct bearing upon
the price, and may possibly cause
an advance of a still more alarm-
