The majority of the winning candidate was almost as great as the total vote of the Conservative. Under these circumstances there seem to be two courses open to Dr. Tolmie.

NOVEL THEATRE MATINEE Tomorrow the management of the Capitol Theatre has arranged for something very unusual m the way of a matinee, entry to which is to be paid in goods for Christmas relief. Some of those attending will take a nound of lumber. We contend that there Is just as much work per unit used in 1 the manufacture of cordwood and I delivering it alongside ship as there j Is in the manufacture of lumber! and delivering it alongside ship, and ! while it would be to the advantage of the Province to have all the lumber manufactured Into pianos, furniture or coffins, yet such Is Impractical.

I "A large portion of the pulpwood which we have in view would be! produced along the Canadian Na- tlnnnl Railurnv pact frrwn Prlnrl Rupert. There are tremendous acres of this timber ther consisting! chiefly of Englemann spruce, and down near tidewater of low grade sitka spruce, and also considerable 1 quantities of western hemlock. The j Englemann spruce lies on both sides of the railway and stretches! north and south for very great dls- tances. It grows to about 18 inches i in diameter and there is as much! of this timber which dies each year ln a state of nature as which grows each year. Under a system of taking out pulp cordwood trees of approximately 10-inch butt and up would be cut. It is a country in ! which horses and vehicles can be ', used and the balance-cf the timber is not Injured, and as a result of the thinning the smaller timber left standing grows more rapidly and Inside of ten or fifteen years it can be cut over again. It Is a recurring crop and the area is so I large that this timber for this pur-I pose Is practically inexhaustible. 1 The chief menace has always been fire, and one of the reasons that i fire has been so bad is that the I ranchers in that district can see no value for the timber. Apart from the jack pine tie business there has been practically no market for this timber since they have been in that country upwards of twenty years, All the settlers along the Canadian National Railways east from Prince Rupert have heretofore won a con slderable percentage of their livelihood from the taking out of Jack pine ties. That business practically disappeared last year and our information is the Canadian National wUl not require any increased delivery of lies before 1040 or 1044. This Is largely due Yo the' fact that they have been over-stocked and they have utilized the creosoting j plant to such effect that their renewals do not have to be made so frequently. Practically all of these settlers have a little timber of their own. At the present time they have to burn it ln order to clear the land. A pulpwood market would enable them to clear the land and at the ----- ";-'..'.?'?-',; t "SUPERETTE Sufwf htm o4ym 189 50 rut fct Jo " 0 LOWbOY R H 19-50 nn MODEL R II SfHatafM Volume Cnuu4 4 Dn.Ut MikIM I2J9J0 fnt n AW m b(!nwl 197o nuwmmmmwm Micro-Synchronous Victor Radios Hxramt;a,MiM.i:m for quality t Here ii your opporruni7 10 bring joy to the entire family with tht gift ibut kit ft oh i'nin.
