The wisdom of the policy of careful financing and close cutting of all unnecessary expenditures was shown in the sale of bonds Monday night when the highest price yet paid was reeeiwxt by the oily. Prince Rupert is beginning to feel the effect of the building or the elevator and the court house, structures which establish this as a centre and make it certain that the interest on Ihe bonds will be paid. Also the.-market is feeling the effect of the improvement of the city by the building of permanent roads. . This financing will prove an inspiration to the mayor and aldermen lo continue on .a course which will still enhance the local securities mid make this cily ode of the most solid, fiuali ciaily,. on the continent. It is a .great satisfaction to feel that our financial condition is Miiind and that if mouev is rennired. it is only necessary.p.gy jnlo.the money market and ask. for ii hi- wnirr in. H. Is It Possible To r Play Golf Here? Many of those intere(cd'have investigated the possibilities of making a golf course near Prince Rupert and all so far have decided against it. They say it cannot be done. Thai also i. our own opinion yet there is a possibility that someone know a place near here where even a nine hole course could be made. Frankly we do no! know of any place nearer than Terrace. lyis is;writlen in th.o Jiopoi.hat anyone having a suggestion to ifiake should do so. Wei want a gold links badlv here. Can we get it? ' & Sir Henry Thornton ' And Canadian National. The people of Canada are justified in kecpiug n keen eve for the motives of the men who are out to kill thfti fJ.N.H.. now that it is steadily increasing its earning power, says the Manitoba Free Press. Some of this JinstUilv doubtless' comes from interests allied with the C.P.R., which does not appreciate having Mie competition of a first class road thai is. out for its share of the public business. It might be also said that there are powerful private interests in Canada that are opposed to the growl ii and development of any publicly owned enterprises. They reganl public ownership as a dracon to be fouehl with out quarter. Ileuce their alarm at the-ability of the C.N.R. to increase its earnings. It is possible, however, thai the chief reason tortile drive against Ihe .National Railways springs from another motive. If the Canadian National were capilnlied al aro.imi yyo.uuu,MMi, winrn i the amount of its stock and uium uaiuiiies io me public,. j would become a moncy-mnkci' once it room earn u.,uui.on pvejuinerating cost?; If It could ,,i willed i M fmrv ii wouiu soon necomo one or the most profitable enterprises in the country and would provide the ground for another crop of niulli-millionnircs. Hence the effort io mane me country, believe Hint jt,ha in the Canadian National Railways a white elephant which, it mu! pel rid of without de lay. If public -opinion could be brought to favor the disposal of the road. we Khmild have syndicate of patriotic geiiMemen nf- u-rwK ui lane over ihe road upon terms which would leave the country carrying the bag. while they-made off with the profit.
