DAILY EDITION 88' 8a Saturday, Sept. 6, 1924. Hushing up Process Seems To Be Resented. . There is a great deal top much bushing up of unpleasant things among those who can afford to pay people to keep quiet. This is well illustrated at Vancouver where a girl was shot .through the head and buried after a verdict of accidental death ' had been brought in by a coroner's jury. In many parts of the country the coroners' juries seem to be under the dominance, of the coroner. Unpleasant things are usually hushed. The proper cause of death is seldom given and the result is disastrous to the coming generation. In this Vancouver case1 it is satisfactory to know that a further investigation is being held and that if there is criminal action, the criminals should be brought to justice. Fear Causes Much Of Present Injustice. Fear is the caufe of .much of the injustice in the world today. People are afraid to tell what they know. Take as an instance a man who dies as a result of the use of drugs. Out o' respect for his family the real cause of death is usually hushed up. He uieu of heart failure or some such " reasonable cause, according lo the doctors. If .it was known that people died from the use of drugs, fewer people would become addicts. Publicity in this, case is advisable. Protection of the individual's family is al the expense of the morals of the nation. So it is with venereal diseases. No one is-ever reported a dying from them, yet they are most fruitful causes of disease and death. We are too careful of the Individual and sacrifice the race for his sake. Revival Imminent In Lumber Industry. - - . .mi. , -.. Already there are signs that the lumber industry is reviving. One of the periodic periods of low; prices caused by overproduction will be followed, by a period of higher prices and greater activity. That is jijways the case. The lumber industry is subject to many fluctuations andias a resultr mills are closed and men thrown out of employment. Just now there is an indication that buying will,commence soon. Already activity is reported and before long the demand should be strong. This will affect the north as well as the south. School Attendance Indicates Trend. A trend of the times is indicated by the school attendance. T.he population of Prince Rupert is on the Increase. That is clear. With about seventy more pupils this year than last, we are certainly on the up-grade. Reports seem to indicate that there are very few emty houses in town. Any desirable residence is taken at once anil there is a demand for more. During the past week the busj-hens office of this paper has been deluged with inquiries from people wanting rooms or room and board. As we are not run ning an agency of that kind we had no information except that contained in the advertising columns of the paper. Everj' tendency here seems to be toward a more perm'onerit class or resident. Many comp here now with the idea of mak ing homes instead of sojourning for a time and then migrating The pioneer stage of development of the city has passed. Busi ness is fairly good here in most lines and only those who 'hold real estate for speculation are complaining. v Prince Exploited By Newspapers. The' Prince of Wales is exploited by 'the newspapers of this continent, much to his disadvantage. In their search for copy, reporters ore recording the most minute acts and moves of the young man so that at times he appears ridiculous. People all read about him, either appreciatively or otherwise and the result is hardly beneficial to the future of the system. The young prince is still very popular everywhere he iroes. This popularity is taken advantage of to exploit him as a news leatiire ami he surfers accordingly.

The fiwen had been jammed on the submerged logs of the Ecstall just below Johnston Creek from between five and six o'clock in the afternoon until after ten o'clock the next morning, ami we were glad to tie-up a short distance down the river and pet ashore. The spot where we moored was at the end of the abandoned narrow-gauge railway leading up to what is known ( as the Dunsiiyiir Mine", a copper property which has been bonded . i 1 1 -- i... , i . i i i i ' 1 11 several limes uy me urauuy iiiieresis uuu nus nan cuiisiiicvame development work done upon it. Tilings aboard the uwen were pot exactly shipshape. They were in fact, rather messy, for our varied belongjngs had suffered in the excitement of the last few hours. We had wandered about the cruft in our high rubber boots! after standing in the river. We had tracked mud aboard, had dripped water aboard, had leaned on things that should never have been leaned on, and had gener ally comforted ourselves in a fashion detrimental to the welfare of inanimate squashable articles. Packets of cigarettes had been tucked away under one of the seats for safety. We found them floating about serenely in water which bad mde its way into the boat, r ood had been stepped pn, tne apricots were suuenng from common assault and persistent jostling, but. the eggs had come through remarkably well. We Get Wat Again Rain began to fall as 'we were cooking lunch under a tree. It rained on ami off for tjie rest of the day. We knew that it was possible to walk in to Johnson Lake from Ibere, bul we did not know where the trail began. It was Johnson Lake that .wo" "had been heading for when some sub merged logs changed our plans, and we were honeful that we might yet reach that beautiful spot by land. However, we were again doomed to disappointment, bpurg unable lo find the proper route. Wle tramped up Ihe nar- row-guage line through wet un- derbrush that soaked us, and we. found the abandoned camp used during the devolpmcnl work had been carried out. The railway went as far as a rushing stream which flowed over a reddish bot tom. We pocketed some ore sam ples and made our, way back to Ihe Gwen. , To Clearwater Afler supper the rain has stop ped and so we decided to move along Clearwaler Creek. As the Owen shoved her nose confident ly down the river which wound away between the lofty summits, we felt the spell of a calm" even Ing and were at peace with the world. Several times we scraped the bottom hut managed to keep moving until we reached deeper water. The; m'oment that we turned into the mouth of Cleorwater Creek we knew why it bore that name. The water was crystal clear right down to the grotesque slumps and rotten trees that sat in the mud of the bottom. At slow speed we ran up belweenf the narrow banks'ahout half a mile and lied up the fiwen not far frqm the fool of some rapids, fin either side of' the. entrance to Hie Clearwater a mountain stood in its imm'ense bulk as If it were there to guard I lie peace of Ihe valley against violation. .Off in the woods a whistle sounded like a traffic policeman in a big city. It was n ground hog, but it might have been the mayor of paradjse giving his address of welcome. Other Captain Explains In qur canoe we paddled up to the rapids; turned into n narrow slough whpre the trees leaned out to. look at. themselves in Ihe still mirror; and then slowly' glided down lo Ihe Ecstall and hack. If it were possible for a hefty man with several days' whiskers on his face lo become ecstatic, I would say that the oilier captain wns ecstatic that,nlght. He was not sufficient of a poet to speak of a silver pathway to contentment, op anything of thai description, and so he slrrtply breathed deeply and exclaimed at intervals. "Say, this is great," and "My, this is cerlainly worth while." We slept in Ihe bottom of the boat that night, Ihe Other Captain in the bow and myself in the next day if rained heavily and so we got up late ami breakfasted under a tree where we remained all nrorninjr. In the afternoon we resolved lo explore the Clearwater, rain or no rain, and donning our high rubber boots we set off up stream, walking sometimes in the river bed and sometimes through the dripping underbrush. Drying Clothes a Problem U did not take long for us to become wet through. The Other Captain had his camera along, and when be wanted lo take a picture in the rain he would seek a sheltered spot, set his camera. rush out and m'ake the exposure. and then get the camera into its leather case as quickly as possi ble. Up the stream we found several fine waterfalls. Upturning to the launch, changed into dry clothes hung the wet onces around fire under the trees while wo and the the rain poured down. As it rained for the greater part of the trip after that, drying clothes became one of our biggest problems. II was a sporting contest between the rain and ourselves and think the rain won, for when we reached home we hail lo .adorn the radiators with our wearing apparel. DryiApr clothes, we dis covered, was a matter of delicate adjustment. The socks, pants shoes, etc., had to he placed close enough lo the fire to dry.and yet far enough away to prevent scorching. The flames were treacherous. They would leap up suddenly and make, threatening ceslures. Onc Ihey bit the heel out of one of my socks and one of the Other Captain's, and so I wore the Iwo odd ones The next morning we left the Clearwater before breakfast and proceeded down stream, bound for Muddy Creek. Before starting I found two frogs In the ashe if the fire we had had the pre vious day. The IjtUe creatures were white with ash.
