The very fact that an attempt is made to blame former administrations for financial lapses will in itself be sure to cause a great deal of criticism. The fact that taxes are being raised and huge borrowings planned instead of the annual tax reduction of former governments, will again doubtless be matters of criticism. We have no criticism to make at the advance in expenditure and the effort to raise more revenue to meet it. With the growth of the province there was bound to be increased expenditures and consequent revenue increases. The present government before taking office, severely criticized the Oliver and McLean governments for the annual increases in their day but increases are inevitable. We are a growing province and expenditures must keep pace with development. It is impossible to deal with the budget in any but the most general terms without more information in regard MUST BE BORROWINGS There must of course be provincial , borrowings and large ones. We, in Prince Rupert, are asking for a considerable sum and it must be obtained by means of a provincial loan., Possibly not a separate loan, but at the same time it is a loan. We want the highway built and it cannot be built without money. Other places also want extensive public works, mostly highways, and they must be built with borrowed money. Each dollar borrowed must be provided for in interest and sinking fund. Money is necessary, and as long as the expenditures do not increase too rapidly, all is well. The only question in this regard is whether we are going ahead too rapidly with our borrowings, whether perchance we are borrowing more than we can ever expect to repay. As long as that is not the case we can carry on without worry. PEACE JUVER WHEAT OUTLET The drop in the price of wheat has made more necessary than ever the western outlet to the Pacific. The condition by which the margin of profit of wheat growing has decreased if not wiped out, has made it not onlv desirable but necossary that the cheapest possible route to the seaboard be selected and developed as rapidly as possible. In the absence of 4 specific knowledge, sometimes a guess is legitimate. Our opinion is that the government will definitely commit itself to the western outlet and development of the Peace before the election, which will probably be held this year. It will leave the ultimate selection to en-giners, and their report will not be available until after the election. Under these circumstances it s very probable that Vancouver will return several supporters of the government in the hope of thus influencing the decision, to brine the outlet in their ilirwhW Pt-lnno T?i moyf will tlifim NEWIODE- Dyer.

Annual Report The annual report of Mrs. D. or chard McLeod, municlpa' secre tary, was as follows: "I again have the pleasure, the privilege and the honor cf submitting herewith the annual report of Municipal Chapter, 1.0D.E., for the year ending February, 1930. "During the year nine regular and two special meetings were held, an average representation being present at all meetings numbering hot less than ten members.

The railway has l&bt built by engineers but approved and financed by statesmen and politicians and in the ultimate by the peoplf the whole country. That makes it a political questioiuand it will have to be regarded asisuch before the railway becomes a reality. !"rV ' THE C.P.R. AND PRINCE RUPERT It soems as if the government is pretty well committed to the idea of J0int railway building and it is hoped that there will be a joint outlet at Prince Rupert. Sir Henry Thornton has publicly proclaimed that Prince Rupert cannot be left out of any railwAy plans in conection with the Peace River. President Beatty of the C.P.R. has also given an intimation that there is a possibility of the C.P.R coming to the same port In view of this situation it seems as if Prince Rupert should endeavor to foster the joint outlet' idea"" and tfo everything possible Co bring it about. musical program.
