D. Pattullo. The mesgage of Premier Tolmie was a very striking one. We repeat a part of it here for the encouragement of local peonle : ' "This and all other recent developments all indicate a very high confidence in the place wnich Prince Rupert is destined to occupy as a gateway to the great northern area of British Columbia." The Premier of British Columbia and the Acting Prime Minister of Canada made no mistake in passing on the message through this paper. Practicality every person in the northern section of the province is having an opportunity to read their words through the 5,500 copies that were distributed. SCOTTISH COAL STRIKE All strikes are unfortunate but sometimes strikes are necessary. So wars are- always unfortunate but sometimes they have been necessary. The present Scottish strike comes at a time when the country is in the throes of depression. While it is likely to bring little gain to the strikers, it is probable it may hasten the end of the present Labor administration. If the men find themselves losing they will blame the government, even though the government may be helpless to do anything. With the development of the idea of peace between nations comes also a growing feeling that industrial peace is also very desirable. Labor leaders are not as keen for strikes as they were at one time and the men refuse to be roused by inflammatory Red orators as they were a few years ago. They are learning to think out these things for themselves. There will be strikes for some time but the probability is they will not be as frequent as in the past, although at a time like this no one can well predict how a strike will spread. If the men feel themselves losing they usually call on their allied unions to come to their rescue and there is the danger.
