DAILY EDITION The Ship Trayel Cunard' Canadian Route for Scenery and Luxury Thursday, October 16, 1924 Railway Rates . And This Province. Some years ago parliament derided on a certain rate known as the Crow's Nest Pass rate fw the carrying of grain and other commodities. It Was found unworkable and was suspended by tinier in council, but when the suspension expired the railways had io return to it. A howl went up from interests that were adversely .affected ami an appeal was made to the railway board which lias decided that it be abolished. It seems that what is needed is a thorough revision of the yrhnle system of railway rates which will put British Columbia on an equality in the matter of mileage with other parts of ada. We now have the business to offer but it cannot be done if the rates are discriminatory. Get Road Built , j While Opportunity. , "N ' j This is the time lo get the. road built out nf Priiice Rupert. If the government should happen to be defeated at any time, the work would be very likely to stop. The present opportunity is one lo be seized and nothing should be allowed to interfere with the work proceeding. The Provincial Government is asking that the city end of the road be built in order that they may be able lo ijo the other part more economically. It will have to be built soon anyway. This it is hoped will be done. One of the things that is against this city just now is the lack of roads and we should be standing in our own light not to co-operate with the government in getting the work done. Arrival Of Zeppelin i Is Important Event. Another flight across the Atlantic has been made and the giant airship has landed her passengers safely and may continue to operate back and forth across the ocean. ' ' Unfortunately there have been many tragedies in connection with the operation ol? these big dirigibles and the result has been to set back that kind of aviation. Possibly the safe arrival of the ZR-3 may give new impetus to the operation of lighter than air machines. Lloyd George Will Not Co-operate. Lloyd George, is reported to have stated that so far as he was concerned the Liberal party is through with the Socialist element in the Labor party and will not co-operate with it. That .would seem to mean that if the Labor government fails to get a najority of the next House of Commons they will be forced to resign and the Conservatives will again come into power. Doubtless they will forget the question of protection but will devote themselves to other problems that need solving. Different Kinds Of Climates In B.C. There are all sorts of climates in British Columbia. There has just come to hand from Ka'mloops Board of Trade a card giving a picture of the city and a lot of information in regard to iL The data shows that in five years the highest annual rainfall wrts a fraction over six inches and in 1021 the rainfall was only inches. How they live there- at all under those conditions is difficult for us to understand. Here where the average rainfall gets tincorrifortably close to the hundred inches we feel that we could spare them a little mmsture.- The thing aUut Kamloops islhat it is a health centre, and that people who are ill from chest troubles find it an' excellent place to recuperate. Keeping Well In . ft - I ! viimaic. , It is possible to keep well in any climate providing proper urauiit-iii is, useu. i ne uiiiicuuy wun a wet climate is that there is too much of a tendency to remain in the house- and not take exercise.
