DAILY
EDITION
TEMPORARY
It
was
intimated
bv
the
works
in
a
statement
issued
by
him
that
possibly
an
arrangement
might
be
made
with
the
railway
company
to1
carry
automobiles
between
Tyee
and
Terrace
as
a
tero-oraKy
expedient.
A
similar
suggestion
was
made
to
Mr.
Mtullo
when
he
Was
minister
of
lands
and
passed
on
by
lim
to
a
meeting
of
the
road
committee
in
Prince
Rupert.
Some
objection
was'
taken
to
the
proposal
in
those
days
and
the
objections
still
hold
good.
It
is
that
if
an
expedient
is
offered
the
building
of
the
main
road
may
be
delayed.
Still
it
seems
reasonable
to
suggest
that
while
the
road
is
being
built
it
would
be
a
good
thing
ko
have
a
better
arrangement
with
the
railway
company
than
at
present
exists.
Forty
dollars
seems
an
unreasonable
amount
to
have
to
pay
for
transporting
a
car.
We
are
not
suggesting
that
the
raL'way
company
is
overcharging
or
getting
more
than
is
its
due,
but
that
it
is
more
than
the
average
car
owner
is
able
to
pay.
Forty
dollars
is
enough
to
pay
for
the
gas
and
oil
for
the
car
between
here
and
Vancouver
and
also
the
meals
for
the
chaffeur
if
he
is
not
an
extravagant
person.
-
THE
ROAD
AND
NOTHING
BUT
THE
ROAD
One
Prince
Rupert
citizen
in
urging
the
carrying
on
of
the
campaign
suggests
that
our
motto
be
"the
road
and
nothing
but
the
road."
Also
we
are
inclined
to
think
We
should
urge
as
forcefully
as
possible
that
the
road
go
by
the
north
bank
of
the
Skeena
River,
because.
to
ferrv
across
would
about
double
the
driving
time
between
Prince
Rupert
and
Terrace.
However,
we
are
not
going
to
quarrel
over
that.
What
we
need
is
a
highway
by
the
best
and
most
expeditious
route
to
Terrace
and
it
is
for
engineers
to
decide
which
way
it
shall
go.
THE
MINISTER'S
STATEMENT
,
We
were
particularly
glad
to
hear
from
the
Provincial
Government
in
regard
to
this
matter
and
to
know
that
they
have
the
highway
in
mind.
We
were
also
pleased
to
see
that
the
acting
minister
of
public
works
seems
to
be
familiar
with
the
situation
and
that
his
views
in
regard
to
it
are
given
such
prominence
in
a
Vancouver
newspaper.
The
flaw
is
that
the
only
definite
statement
in
regard
to
building
is
that
"the
bridge
across
Galloway
Rapids
is
required
in
any
case
and
it
is
planned
to
construct
it
as
soon
as
possib'e."
That
is
certainly
something,
but
it
is
something
we
thought
we
should
have
received
this
year.
Terrace
people
also
complain
of
unreasonable
delay
in
connecting
up
their
town
with
Hazelton
and
say
ajt.tne
present
rate
of
construction
it
will
take
ten
years
tqcomplete
the
work.
r
We
are
glad
to
know
the
minister
recognizes
the
value
of-this
highway
from
a
tourist
point
of
view
and
Prince
Rupert
-lfepple
will,
we
are
sure,
be
glad
to
co-operate
in
any
way,ihnthe

work.
