The Fishermen’s Protective Asso- ciation in Vamcouver is pre- paring to take action in the matter and it would do no harm for the men of the north to get busy once more. The Oriental comes north for the season and returns south in the fall, taking the bulk of his season’s wages with him, leaving the north not a cent better off thdn he found it. The canneries are at present controlled from the south and all their business is done there, It is not suggested that the canning interests should trans- fer their head offices to Prince Rupert, but it is surely up to the government to issue licen- ces to any independent white fishermen who desire them and to issue cannery licences to any company which is able to carry on the business. It is ridicu- lous that salmon fishing should today be carried on under reg- ulations which may have been necessary when there was no of population in the north, and there is urgent need for reform. centre FRED 8.8.

Prince Edward Island is entirely dry, and, in ad- dition, is entirely surrounded by water.
