If Prince Rupert is stagnant, so will he the rartway. Our eggs are in the same basket. Again and again we have suggested that what is needed here is co-operation. We. call help the railway and lie railway can heJp us. The difficulty has been that we have oMen felt we got the wjirsl of the ileal. Whether that feeling Was justified or not it has been willi us and has had a bad effect on Ihe biisines of the railway audi the progress of the city. If Prince Rupert people ran be made to reel that there is real co-operation on the Mrt oT railway officials wilh u view to building up this port, they will certainly do what they can '.o turn business , to the government road and steamships.

They have fell that the company look every opportunity to-remove- things from Ibis port lo our disadvantage. The railway has refused to do lillle things such as beginning lo beau tify Ihe railway grounds or giving us a niall steauiei- to ply o-;f of this port or giving us eipud lourisl rates with- oihM- place .H we ask is a fair break with oilier places. , ' As n result or Sir Henry's visit it is hoped thai Ibis feeling will he allayed and tharfrom now on there will be a genuine de sire on I lie part or polli Ihevniilway company and citizens to help eacli i.lhcrJ This isli tiiiiadiiili..Valioualcitv.

Make Prince Rupert Stop-over Point. 11 is noticed (hat in 'selling tickets agents seldom propose Prince Rupert as a stopping-orf point, the resiill is (hat it seem useless to provide here those attractions which would Iwnd to prove uiieresiiiig lo visitors. during the summer. If we were assured that the railway would induce tourists to snctitl .-tfilav here each way instead of rushing right through, we should be looking round lor ways ami means of doing our bit towards making it worth Ibeir while. There is a lack or co-operation in regard lo nils. e citizens lo not do enough and the railway has not oceii approaciicu io see u niey would meet us in Ihe mailer. j-cw places Have as many attractions ns Prince Rupert, yet we do not cash in on Ihem. This is worth thinking about both bv the railway and the pcoplf here.
