Prince Rupert As

A Naval Centre.
There have been rumors from time to time as to why Prince

Rupert may or may not become a naval centre. Captain McCoskrie
has assembled the facts very clearly and the next move will be
to place these before the proper authorities.

When Prince Rupert was first located, a good many ob-
jected because they said Kaien Island was too near the Alaskan

boundary line. They said it would never become a naval base on
.that account. It might be well perhaps to combat that suggestion
in the letter which is forwarded to the naval aythorities.

Aeroplanes in
Fishing Industry.

In. southern waters it is planned to-use airplanes to locate
shoals of fish. It is said that this plan may be used with good
effect for tuna and sardine.

In British Columbia waters, schools of herring might easily
be located by means of airplanes much more rapidly and effec-
tively than in any other way. The range of visian from the plane
being so much larger than from a boat, makes this plan particu-
larly suitable, Cal 2 eee ga

Possibly before long aeroplanes will fly from Prince Rupert
for the purpose of locating the herring schools for which fisher-
men are now looking.

Veracity of Mining
Men Often Challenged.

Do mining men tell the truth? That is a question that is
often asked and which usually raises an incredulous smile, few
being: so brave as to intimat: that every one is an Ananias and
yet everyone showing that mining stories like fish stories are to
be taken with a grain of salt.

The difficulty is with a few men who are not miners but who
as promoters and boomsters stop at nothing in their efforts to
rouse interest in certain mines or prospects and to swindle the
public. Already there is a tendency to talk that way about
Stewart and Alice Arm. We have had men come to Prince
Rupert with stories so wild that no newspaper would dare to
print thei. In Vancouver recently there seems to have been que
man and one newspaper who was sulliciently gullible to be led
away with wondrous tales. These tales injure a district more
than do the knockers. They make people wonder whether any
of the stories told are true,

The facts in regard to the mines of Stewart and Alice Arm
are sufficiently wonderful without using the imagination to con-

jure up Eldorado yarns. There are rich mines and good pros-
pects at both places, but the boomsters would kill interest in
them all. What the public would like to have would be accounts
of development from time to time with actual finds, described
by reputable men who refuse to exaggerate for the sake of effect.

Exaggerated yarns gave Stewart a long sleep once before,
and it would be a pity to have the history of that time repeated.
We suggest that the people of the mining camps form a miners’
protective association for the purpose of lynching any man who
goes out and spins about the place yarns which have no basis
in fact.
