DAILY EDITION. —_—_—— —— ees EEE Prince Rupert In The Public Eye. Prince Rupert is more and more coming before the public eo Tuesday, March 30, 1920. as a centre of activity, brought about largely by its natural posi- tion and its many physical advantages. As an example take Toronto Saturday Night. Ina recent num! that excellent weekly says :— “Hon. Wm. Sloan, Minister of Mines for British Columbia, iti a recent review of new developments in Northern and Central British Columbia, stated that in the next few years Prince Rupert is bound to become the centre of one of the richest mining fields in the world. Latest developments in the vicinity of Alice Arm, Stewart, Hazelton, and numerous other points indicate very rich A well known mining engineer, Mr. Alfred C. Garde, properties. Mining and shipping journals tell of the prospects here and others are following suif. OT of Vancouver and Prince Rupert, is responsible for the statement that “The wealth to be obtained fro mthe mineral riches of British Columbia would be more than enough to pay the whole of Canada’s national debt and leave plenty more to carry on with.” In speak- ing of the importance of establishing an jron smelter and ir works, where ore, coal, water and transportation facilities are on to be found, he says: “I have spent ten years in the north and the new fields along the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, which 1s popularly known as the Copper River District, and it is very rich in all the necessary ores for the establishment of a smelter and iron works. The ore is of Superior quality.’ In a statement gis to the Vancouver press, Major George Hull, district engineer en of the Dominion Department of Public Works at Prince Rupert, says: ‘This coming summer, Northern British Columbia is com- ing into its own. You are going to see a boom in mining, par- ticularly.in the Stewart and Alice Arm districts, that will eclipse anything previously seen in this country. The coming activities in mining is going to have as big an effect on the future of Prince Rupert as the rush to Dawson had on Vancouver and Seattle.’ ” Exclude Horses From the Streets. . Some years ago the editor of this paper in an editorial article in another paper expressed the opinion that the time would come in the not far distant future when horses would not allowed to be driven on the streets, be and suggested that from a sanitary point of view this was something very much to be desired. A news despatch to the Vancouver papers a few days a tells that Denver, Colorado, is preparing to put a regulation this kind into force. That city has given the horse go U ntil Januar) 1, 1925, to get out, after which no horses, cattle, sheep or swine may be kept within the city limits or driven on the streets.
