That is equivalent to saying that Prince Rupert will be the outlet. He also in timates that tills port may also be the outlet for the C.P.K. on the north coast. It ig very much tojae desired that Sir Henry's intimations may be correct. We admit it is very likejy to be true and we also believe that Sir Henry expects them to be true. For years we have urged that the outlet for the C. P. R. be at Prince Rupert in order to avoid duplication of unprofitable' lines and to help make the C. N. R. profitable. The pays oi useless duplication-are past because it is found that in ihe end the consumer has to pay all useless costs. Rates are set high enough to provide a profit, no matter how high the cost. it is to be hoped that the western, outlet for the Peace River will be built in such a way as to give the best possible results to the farmers of the" Peace. That will undoubtedly bring it to Prince Rupert. It now lookg as if the railways realize this and are about to utilize the natural route to the ocean, the one down the Skeena Valley to Prince Rupert THE MAYOR'S MISSION When it was decided to serld the mayor to Ottawa it was, realized that ft would be no picnic party and that in a time like this it would be difficult to secure definite promises from those in authority at Ottawa. The jnayor made good use of the brief time he was away and with the aid of the fitting member, Olof Hanson, was able to see a good many urmmnani men mere including rremier uennett ana Won. HI H.Stevens, both of whom expressed themselves as being well disposed toward the city of Prince Rupert. The visit cost the city a very small sum and the results we think fully justified the move. Usefnl contacts were ma'de that may prove valuable at some later date. It is only by constant urging that it is possible to secure those things ncessarv to commercial progress. A good effort has been made this year and we never can tell what the results may CROP REPORTS and BUSINESS SUMMARIES TURING th stsson the Bank of Montreal issues periodical reports on crop conditions throughout Canada.
