I Another thing Prince Rupert anticipatjs hopefully is th6 con struction of a highway from the mouth of the Skeena, where the road now ends, Inland about 90 miles along the Skeena River Valley to connect with An ur. ing road at Terrace. Then only a 'i THE DAILY NEWS Tuesday. August 6. i929 short link near Usk would be needed to complete the line, and make it possible for Prince Rupert people to travel to and from Vancouver by automobile and, more important still, to open Prince Rupert to the motor tourist highway systen) of" North America. The road along the Skeerja Canyon, as anyone who has. beenpver the Canadian Na-Uonal'sGrand Trunlc line realizes, would be one of great scenio attractions and while construction would be fairly costly the project would probably not be more formidable that that involved in the building of equivalent sections of the Trans-Provincial Highway. There s no doubt that such a highway would greatly stimulate the business Prince Rupert derives from tourist traffic. And it would open to sportsmen a salmon fishing country probably unequalled In the world. New C.N.R. Hotel T Although there is perhaps no fx ''t -3 f '. ... . i !);! iK JftiV, v. justification for assuming that !the Canadian National Railway will in tho near future erect a good tourist hotel in Princd-Jtup-ert, nevertheless Prince Rupert Is expecting it. The fisheries industry as a source of Prince Rupert income still ranks above all other industries. This year the outlook is particularly good and when, tljp neakon is over Prince Rupert should be in better condition financially. Salmon prices are better this year than for some years and the catch of cohoes, sockeye and pinks is good in nearby waters. Cohoes are bringing GO cents each, the . best price . in years', and the run is said to be the best since J91C, Hp'wqyr, in 191C the price was only 25 cents per fish. Between 500 ami GOO trollers are out. Drydock Busy On the Skeena there are about 1000 gill net boats at work, each with one or two men on board. There has been a little more The neW competition than usual amongst the cannerios this year and the price, is holding very steady.
