announced
that
the
Peace

committee
at
Its
last
meeting
had
decided
to
leave
the
question
of
sending
a
delegate
to
the
council.
From
the
Peace
River
district,
C.
W.
Frederick
was
being
sent
to
Ot
tawa
and
the
people
there
were
an
xious
to
have
some
one
from
Prince
Rupert
accompany
him.
It
was
ad
visable.
Aid.
Collart
felt,
that
Prince
Rupert
should
show
the
.people
of
the
Peace
River
that
It
was
still
behind
their
fight
for
an
outlet.
The
committee
suggested
that
the
cost
of
sending
the
dele-
jate
to
Ottawa
should
be
taken

felt

that
Prince

should
be
represented
at

on
the
matter
of
the
Peace

The
route
was
something
that
the
city
was
greatly
concerned
with.
He
understood
that
both
the
federal
member,
Mr.
Brady,
and
the
Liberal
candidate,
Mr.
Hanson,
who
would
be
unable
to
go

desirous
that
