Any action the Government may take in aiding such a worthy enterprise would certainly receive the solid support of the people of Prince Rupert, Liberal and Conservative. Wor years we have talked about the Groundhog but this is the first practical move toward connecting it with the port of Prince-Rupert. DAILY MAIL SERVICE It was rather to be regretted that the Board of Trade, owing to its revised constitution, was -unable to deal with the question of the need of a daily mail service west of Jasper. However, the committee to which the matter is being referred may be able to adduce some additional arguments in favor of the service. I In the past Prince Rupert has played a lone hand in regard to the matter. With all the centres united in a request, the Post Office department at Ottawa may be more ready to give ear to the local desire. With a rented post office, no city delivery and only a three times a week mail, we cannot feel ourselves particularly well treated by the postmaster general. LOCAL BOAT SERVICE The proposal of Paul Armour made at the Board of Trade meeting last night that Prince Rupert could get a boat service out of this port by putting up half the cost, seems a pretty reasonable one. We need such a service but if the merchants are not willing to back it, there is no more to be said. A thorough investigation should be made and the matter should not be allowed to rest where it is.
