Little Tells Victoria of Better Conditions in North General business conditions appeared to be getting brighter in the northern section of the province according to J. J. Little of Prince Rupert, manager of the Northern B, C. Power Company, who arrived In the city yesterday from the main- j land, says the Victoria Times. He is at the Empress Hotel, and expects j to remain here for several days on ! business. The Northern B. C. Power Company 'supplies light and power to Prince Rupert, Stewart and Hyder. The company's hydro-electric plant developing 7,500 horsepower, is located at Falls River, about 42 miles from Prince Rupert. The company last year bought out the power plant which was operated by the city of Prince Rupert. No further power development is contemplated by his company at the present time, Mr. Little stated today. There is amplo water power available at Falls Klver, and the -ompany is ready to expand with the north when it goes ahead, he said. The fishing business of Prince Rupert is being steadily developed and ships are taking wheat from the elevator there. The city looks ror expansion with the construction of the highway eastward from Prince Rupert.

Mr. Robertson explained ( that he was partially crippled and ! unable to do outside work. Fur- ther he had a family of three chil-j dren to maintain. He had been told to report back on the work on De cember 1 when he would be given eight days work. He wished to know why he could only get eight or nine days work when other men received sixteen days. All he asked was a square deal in the matter. After Mr. Robertson had been heard, a lengthy discussion ensued. This boiled down to a question as to whether the compressor should be allowed to be operated by a certified man or by a man, such as Mr. Robertson, who was not. Varying opinions were expressed and It was finally decided to leave the matter over until the next meeting by which time the mayor will be home and further Information probably available. linimum Water Rate Is Given Seal Cove Mill A recommendation from the board of works that the Dig Day Lumber Co. be charged a minimum rate for water plus water meter rental, totalling $0 for a shut-down oerlod not exceeding three months, subject always to no undue waste of water, was adopted by the city council last night.
