of
which
they
had
so
much
to
be
proud.
,
ALDERMAN
ROBSON,
Alderman
Robson
thanked
the
people
of
Prince
Rupert
cordially
and
sincerely
for
the
welcome
they
had
extended
and
congratulated
them
on
what
hart
already
been
accomplished
and
especially
on
the
success
of
the
halibut
fish
erles.
It
might
be
asked
what
Interest
they
could
have
In
a
port
a
thousand
mlle
.away.
Well,
they
grew
wheat
in
adund-ance,
more
than'
they
could
use,
and
some
of
It
had
to
be
exported.
The
opening
of
the
Panama
Canal
gave
Alberta
the
open
door
to
the
markets
of
the
world.
It
was
a
long
way
from
Edmonton
to
the
Atlantic
Coast
and
the
farmers
often
thought
they
were
not
getting
a
square
deal
at
the.
lake
ports.
They
had
helped
get
the
elevator
here
and
their
grain
was
now
being
routed
this
way.
Prince
Rupert
was
the
toll
gate
through
which
the
wheat
had
to
pass.
The
toll
on
the
wheat
affected
the
pro
fits
of
the
fanner.
It
might
be
only,
a
few
cents
or
even
a
cent
a
bushel
yet
it
amounted
to
a
huge
sum
on
total
shipments.
They
regarded
Prlnoe
Rupert
as
their
port
and
appreciated
the
fact
that
Prince
Rupert
people
felt
the
same
about
it.
They
appreciated
the
fact
that
their
interests
as
.well
a
the
Interests

people

considered.
Alderman
Robson
said
.he
understood
there
would
be
no
exploiting
of
the
port
of
Prince
Rupert.
However,
the
keynote
of
success
was
watchfulness.
He
would
j
go
back
home
satisfied
with
the
trip
and
would
try
to
get
the
people
of
Alberta
to
co-operate.
He
urged
that
there
must
be
idealism
with

Mr.

said
he
never
before

the

ot
this

and
be

to

about

PRESS
OF
ALBERTA
Mr.
Morrison
said
the
object
of
the
press
of
Alberta
was
to
promote
the
interests
of
the
western
route.
If
Prince
Rupert
had
anything
to
offer,
and
It
had,
they
wanted
to
know
It.
As
a
matter
of
criticism
he
would
say
that
Prince
Rupert
had
not
put
the
ports,
it
is
necessary
to
board
the
ships
about
80
miles
out.
IIAKItOll
ADVANTAClF.it
Climatically,
we
feel
that
we
are
Indeed
favorably
situated.
Our
port
Is
free
from
Ice
the
year
round
and
-while
we
may
have
more
rain
than
the
south,
srn
ports,
we
are
seldom
bothered
with
fcg,
the
latter
being
the
greatest
danger
that
ship
captains
have
to
contend
with.
The
approach
to
our
harbor
from
the
time
a
ship
leaves
the
open
seas
until
she
lies
at

Is
superior
to
most
and
Inferior
to

Is
It

HOIKS
J
The
captain
of
the
Aden
Maru
Inform
ed
us
that
on
his
trip
from
Japan
to
the
Canal
he
saved
18
hours
by
picking
up
t
cargo
here
as
against
calling
at
southern
ports.
Had
he
been
returning
to
Japan
he
would
have
saved
.four
days,
which
on
a
year's
Tun
would
mean
two
extra
trips.
This
Is
of
considerable
Importance
to
the
owners
and
must
eventually
mean
a
considerable
saving
to
the
farmer
In
freight
when
shipping
returns
to
normal
and
the
port
Is
better
established.
So
far,
I
have
only
referred
to
Prince
Rupert's
advantages
after
the
grain
reaches
here,
.which
la
really
putting
the
cart
before
the
horse.
I
will
now
deal
with
the
horse,
namely
the
railway
end.
In
view
of
the
tight
we
are
putting
up
for
the
equalization
of
rail
rates.
It
will
probably
be
of
as
much
or
more
Interest
as
after
all
rail
freights
eat
Into
the

than

RAILWAY
ADVANTAGES
As
you
are
aware
the
distance
from
here
to
Red
Pass
Junction
Is
some
1S3
miles
farther
than
from
here
to
Vancouver
and
no
doubt
the
general
opinion
1
that
It
will
cost
the
CN.
Railways
more
money
to
pull
grain-
In
here
than
to
Vancouver.
The
contra
is
-the
case.
or
at
least
was
some
two
years
ago.
which
was
when
I
last
saw
the
figures.
We
have
a
4-10

1
grade
as
compared
.with
a
7-10
of
1
to
Port
Mann,
the
terminus
of
the
southern
branch.
Bcsed
on
the
figures
I
am
quoting
our
operating
cost
per
train
mile
was
sufficiently
under
that
to
Port
Mann
to
more
than
take
care
of
the
additional
mileage
and
this
.In
the
face
of
less
tonnage
than
went
over
the
Vancouver
line.
This
can
be.
more
readily
grasped
when
you
know
that
one
of
the
smsll
type
engines
will
pull
more
than
mogul
type
wlU
on
the
southern
division.
In
addition
to
the
advantage
in
our
favor
as
compared
with
Port
Mann,
the
Canadian
National
Is
.faced
wth
a
further
charge
in
getting
their
trains
Into
Vancouver
which
on
a
cargo
the
size
taken
by
the
Ade.n:
Maru
amounts
to'
13,000.
On

(which
quantity

years,
with
the
possibility
of
another
60.000

When

opens
up)
would
make
possible
a
saving
of
11.200,000
per
year,
an
amount
worthy
of
consideration.
I
might
remind
the
Hon.
Mr.
Held
that
if
the
farmers
pf
Alberta
had
that
in
tbelr
pockets
they
would
not
need
to
worry
about
the
carrying
charges
on
the
EJDJ3.C.
Railway.
Further.
It
would
go
a
long
way
toward
paying
