I
The
Daily
News
has
endeavored
to
bring
the
matter
before
the
public
as
fully
and
impartially
as
possible
but
we
realize
that
a
great
deal
we
have
presented
has
been
a
matter
of
opinion.
We
know
the
service
we
have
had
from
the
Northern
British
Columbia
Power
Co.
Its
shortcomings
have
been
pointed
out
and
it
has
made
its
explanations.
We
know
how
much
its
service
is
costing
us
and
some
figures
have
been
presented
on
charges
elsewhere.
The
case
of
the
power
company
should
be
carefully
considered
and
the
alternatives
fully
studied.
The
power
company
has
admitted
the
need
for
additional
power
development
here
and
its
intention
to
provide
it.
It
has
hinted
that
the
result
of
the
referendum
might
affect
its
planning
policy
for
the
future.
The
choice
between
public
and
private
ownership
might
actuate
some
people
in
their
decisions.
We
do
not
think
it
is
the
intention
of
the
city
council
to
make
that
the
major
issue.
The
question
might
have
something
of
the
old
adage
of
the
bird
in
the
hand
or
the
bird
in
the
bush
to
it.
There
are
definitely
two
sides
to
the
matter.
Good
or
bad,
the
referendum
is
being
put.
We
suggest
that
the
voters
be
not
carried.
off
their
feet
but
endeavor
to
judge
soundly
between
what
we
have
now
and
what
we
have
the
possibility
of
getting
as
well
as
the
full
impact
and
reactions
which
may
accrue
from
this
preliminary
expression
of
opinion.
It's
Up
to
the
Public
THE
city
council
is
evidently
resolved
to
do
its
best
to
cope
with
the
serious
rat
scourge
in
Prince
Rupert.
The
city
can
do
a
lot,
of
course,
but
the
most
it
can
do
will
not
be
very
effective
if
there
is
not
the
fullest
co-operation
on
the
part
of
the
public
which
.means
every
man,
woman
and
child
in
Prince
Rupert.
;
If
people
go
on
leaving
their
garbage
cans
uncovered,
are
careless
in
the
disposal
of
waste
and
unused
food,
allow
litter
and
refuse
to
gather-around
their
premises,
the
city,
do
what
it
may,
will
be
unable
to
cope
with
the
situation.
The
crux
of
the
matter
would
appear
to
be
with
the
public.
If
they
are
careful
and
adopt
the
suggestions
that
are
made,
live
up
to
the
letter
of
com-mdnsense
cleanliness
and
tidiness,
there
will
be
a
gottd
chance
of
being
ridded
of
our
vermin.
Like
the
rest
of
us,
the
rats
have
to
have
a
place
to
live
and
something
to
live
on.
If
all
of
us
deny
them"
food
and
shelter,
and
take
whatever
measures
we
can
to
exterminate
the
rodents
we
now
have
with
us,
their
numbers
will
soon
be
diminished
and
the
menace
of
their
unwelcome
presence
removed.

and
how
the

Agnes
got
off

rushed

helped
the

short-lived

Her

do

she

STRANGE

that
consci-,
ence
of
Miss
MacPhail's.
When
'she
was

in
1921
.she
thought
that
$2500
per

was
enough
for

Anyway,
Agnes

would

In

told
