When there was a wage dispute between the fishpackers and their employers the matter was arbitrated and a settlement arrived at which was accepted by both sides, It was a compromise settle- ment. There is a general tendency to adopt a more sane method ot settling industrial disputes. While it will be some time before we get over the disturbing effects of the war and the industrial upheaval caused by the food shortage fofiowing four years of little production, there is an evident tendency toward a better state of affairs. People are realizing that while prices are very high at present, they cannot remain so indefinitely. A period of falling prices will follow which will try the mettle of business people. Prosperity on Rising Market. While no merchants like a continually rising market, they like less a falling market. Many merchants made money owing to arise in value of their stocks. The same men will lose money when they have to sell for less than they paid for goods. Fluctua- tions of that kind are bad for business. There have been very few business failures during the past year or two, There will be many more directly the prices begin to toboggan. ‘There is no need to fear such a time if preparation has been made. Any profits made on the rising market should be set aside to make up for the losses on the falling market. The man who does not face this is likely to go down and out. It may be a year or more before the turn comes, but also the turn may come at any time. United States factories are said to be stocking up, their market being restricted by the exchange. The longer the balance of exchange remains as it is now, the more danger there is bl.a sudden falling in prices of those goods manufactured by the United States. Let there be a big crop throughout the world this year and anything may happen. So far as Prince Rupert is concerned, it does not seem as if she would suffer much. She will stand to gain from a drop in prices ‘as long as she can sell her fish. At the same time it must be remembered that any tension in the money market, such as has already commenced to a slight extent, will have an effect on credits and credits are necessary in most lines of business. Power Question is Important One. A letter received a few days ago from Daniel Morrissey which was not published in the Daily News suggests that instead of going elsewhere for power, the city should raise the dam at Woodward Lake and put in another unit at Shawatlans power house. That is a matter for engineers. Mr. Morrissey may be right. If he has expert figures on it and on the other proposals he is in a position to judge.- The proposals at present before the city are:— 1. The installing of a power plant at Wark Channe! at a cost of $670,000. 2. The installing of a steam plant in the city at a cost of $320,000. 3. The doubling of the present plant at Shawatlans and the raising of the dam at the lake. 4. The harnessing of Khtada River at a cost of at least $1,500,000, ; 5. The harnessing of Falls River at a cost of, say, $2,500,- 000, 6. Purchasing power from a private concern that would develop either of the larger water powers. The last mentioned proposal would be the most suitable it a concern could be found that would go into the business, for the city needs all its resources to build streets and sewers. The larger proposals are better than the smaller ones, but the city must be sure she is able to go through with any s¢heme before starting. To be held up financially when in the midst of a big project would be fatal. DENTISTRY Dr. Jos. Maguire Rooms: 7 © 8 Smith Block Member of B.C. College of Dental Surgeons.

The table given is for Port Simpson but the time for Prince Rupert varies only a few minutes on some days and on others is the same. The range of the tide may be computed as 5 per cent greater at Prince Rupert than at Port Simpson both at springs and neaps. Therefore the rise in the Prince Rupert harbor is slightly greater than Port Simpson. ‘The height4s in feet and tenths of feet above the average level! of lower low water. = pel iccnncets
