Navy League Worthy Institution. We take great pleasure in commending to the people of Prince Rupert the Navy League and its work. the war but in peace times thiv institution looks after the interests of the first line of defence the Empire has. It needs money to keep up the work and on Tuesday the people of this city are to be asked to contribute. They will doubtless do so liberally for we are a seaport town and the claims of the sea folk appeal to us. Curious Attitude of Union Steamship Co. About a week ago the 8S. S. Camosun met with a misfortune when she broke the shaft of her rudder. As a result she is today laid up. She was bound north at the time and a few hours’ steaming would have brought her to Prince Rupert. She re- turned to Swanson Bay, made temporary repairs and came on here with passengers and cargo. Up to that point everything was correct and from all accounts received the manipulation of the ship without a rudder showed expert seamanship on the part of the officers. When the Camosun arrived here the natural thing would seem to have been to have drydocked her and had the repairs made. Instead of that, however, some temporary work was done by the engineers of the ship and she was taken back to Vancouver for her overhaul. The Union Steamship Co. looks to Prince Rupert for a good deal of support. Her vessels ply here regularly and many of the merchants and others patronize them as occasion requires. It is to be assumed that this patronage is of value to the company and that the intention is to continue the service to this port. It is of benefit to the people here as well as to the company. When there was an opportunity, however, to turn a litile business our wé@y, and when all the ethics of the sea would have seemed to make it desirable {o make the ship perfectly safe, the company orders its steamer to return to Vancouver. and even permits her to carry passengers in her disabled condition. We know nothing of the relative cost of repair work here or at Vancouver or of the relative cost of overhaul here compared with the other cities, but we do think that an effort should have been made to come to terms with the local drydock concern with a view to having the work done here. The people of this city should insist that in matters of this kind the local concerns be given at least an equal opport inity with Vancouver. The management of the Union Steamship Co. may argie that they are running their own business in their own way, but so may local shippers when «sked for business by the company. The Union Compan cannot afford to ignore this port, the business of which is steadily becomiyg more valuable, especially as the agent of the company is also the agent for the Dominion Expre M. C.
