DAILY EDITION Monday, Feb. 3. W30 RATING OF CANNERIES During -the discussion in regard to the new fisheries regulation there has been a good deal said about the rating of canneries and the fact that some canneries not operating are given ratings. This really does not affect the question insofar as the fishermen are concerned. It is a matter which has been thrashed out by the canners themselves and on which an agreement has been reached. If rival can-nerg are not now objecting there seems no reason why other citizens not directly concerned should worry them selves. PROSECUTION OF BROKERS The sudden outburst against brokers in the south rather tends to bring discredit on the whole profession. , There is no doubt irregularities have occurred but there are also many brokers who absolutely will not stand for anything but the fairest and straightest dealings. The profession is just like any other. There are good and bad in it. rossioiy ac a ume uxe uwi wirougn wnicn tne country recently passed there are temptations to do things which at an ordinary time would be avoided. It was the same in real estate when some of the finest men in the country who afterwards made good in high positions very nearly avoided going to jail. ROCIIER DE BOULE Some years ago the Rocher de Boule mine at Hazelton was shipping ore through Prince Rupert to the advantage of Hazelton and this port. Now it is said the mine is to reopen and it is hoped ore will again flow through this port on the way to the smelter. Even should the ore not come this way we hope the mine will be operated. DEBATE ON ADDRESS The new plan of cutting short the debate on the address in reply -tothe s-peech from the throne is to be commended. Both parties have done their part in connection with this. The opposition is to be commended for not dividing the House on the debate as has been done in the past. Now they can get down to work on the real business of the session instead of spending their time in more or less idle talk. Full Speed Ahead Soon Many people do not realize that the Northern Power Company, a subsidiary of the Power Corporation of Canada, is really constructing a large hydro-electric plant to serve the city of Prince Rupert and adjoining territory. The site for the plant is being prepared and the right-of-way for the high-power lines connecting Big Falls or the Ecstall River with the city is being cleared and that during September next it is expected to turn on the power from the first unit. What does this mean to Prince Rupert? It means that the largest power corporation of Canada has faith in the future of the city and district and already sees a market for its product. Under the impetus of the new movement, Prince Rupert will grow. Industries will be developed and all will feel the benefit. Prince Rupert people must prepare for the change. New buildings will be necessary. If there are no vacant houses in the city today, what will be the condition when people begin to come in? The Daily News is alive to the situation and is laying its plans. Others must do the same if they are to keep pace with the new Prince Rupert.

EGG PRICE FLUCTUATES Should Re Going Down Soon; Butter and Sugar Prices Soft There is considerable fluctuation in the price of eggs locally Just now. In a month or so, the spring downward movement in price should commence. The butter market remains about the same, with Prince Rupert merchants selling this commodity on a narrow margin of profit. There has been a slight increase in the price of sugar. The potato market Is steady and it Is probable that there will be little changes in price this spring. There is little variety Just now in the fruit and vegetable markets. A number of varieties of apples have disappeared. No tomatoes are obtainable locally at present. Mexican tomatoes are being quoted In the south but the prices are prohibitive while the quality is not good enough to stand shipping north.
