The whole city turned out to wtt-ness and to welcome the advent of the new Northern British Columbia Power Company's $2,000,0001 plant, the first unit in a 32,000 horse power : development at Falls River, not far from the city. , "It is not diffieuK to understand what this means to Prince Rupert," says Editor pullen. "It places the city on the front tine of develop- , ment and indicates that some of the greatest financiers in Canada J are pinning their faith here. The! city under these new conditions is bound to grow rapidly!" The power plant Installed Is pro nounced to be sufficiently large to ' supply the city and district as they are today, with power enough in! that already developed to last un- j til Prince Rupert has attained the! dignity of a. large manufacturing city and a seaport trading with all t the countries of the world: "There ! is no limit to the poMibllitlee!" as- setts the editor. Prince Rupert Is a city Jus't 20' years old, and it has had its com- ings and goings. Not long since the 1 people decided that their public ut-1 lllty planned, owned and operated' by the city ceflneir;, was Jhg sause of their failure to attract industries where they had great possibilities' to show, and where they had im-l mediate accessories for pulp mills, flour mills, shingle mills, smelters,,' steel works, canning factories'kriltr ting and woollen mills with. a, vast market In the Orient awaiting exporters. The olty had been plunged' into debt and into error by its ear-h ly pioneers, everyone of whom way a potential mayor or active politician, and who signed for the control of a political publie utility machine. They had for IS ycare operated their civic power and light plant at a book profit, but at an actual cash loss. When accountants could no longer certify to profits, the city decided that it would secure the co-operation of some real masters of electrical production.. They approached many, but strange to say, they decided to sen their own plant to the lowest biddersra ther than to the highest. ilT, High Reputation , The lowest bidders have the highest reputation for activity, and for civic and industrial promotion, and It was en this factor and on the character of the men who made the lowest cash offer that the decision was made. These men who profltted by their character and proven char4 acteristlcs were nearly all former residents of Sherbrooke and the. Eastern Townships, and lt was on the basis of their outstanding sue-1 eees as sound builders of Industry that the mayor and aldermen de-J ciaea to sacruice a nunarea inou-sand lollars purchase money to get the right men behind their larger project. So that having a reputation worth while saved the buyers a large amount of real cash. The council Judged that superior skill and proven ability was worth the sacrifice. Since two years, when the purchase was consummated every promise placed on record by H. E. Pawson, of the Montreal Power ln tejrests, has been carried out. Mayor Ofiae, of Prince Rupert congratu lated the comnanv and Its. officers.! oh its speed and success on the j completion of tho first new unit of i development, when he turned on the water on the second day of this month. Premier S. F. Tolmie sent his congratulations to the city, as did non. t. u. pattuiio, M.L.A, for Prince Rupert. Mr. Pattuiio has re, presented his city in the British Columbia House since 1916, and his prophecy had been that Prince Rupert would begin to move as soon as some big power company took hold of the hydro-power project. Premier Tolmie said: The opening of- the splendid power plant will have a far-reaching effect on the Industrial development of the city and the. surrounding district." ; Coi. -MCMordie, one Mme mayor. ( and "who first, bad the courage to prove the fallacy of political ownership, started the revolution and restoration to municipal sanity during his tenure of office, and was among those, who Joined In the unanimous Jubilation at the gathering of the citizens airly in the month. He vLsIoned great things for Prince i Rupert, and said that within a very few years the northern part of the rich Peace River country would have a direct railway line to Prince ' Rupert. This Would mean a North-'ern British Columbia terminal for the C. P. R and other industrial developments, were in the offing. Last year over 4000 ships had arrived at -and cleared from Prince Rupert ; harbor. "The prospects of the city have never been brighter."' he said. Q. Hanson, the MP., for Skeena, was a prominent figure at the celebration Of the opening of the new pqwet plant, and was optimistic about the fact that Prince Rupert was now on the right electric road to prosperity. The city is the nearest to Japan' and China ports, and has at Its door the Peace River country .-.-1 O which is tempered into tropieal I growth by the Chinook winds In the j winter and by the warm ocean cur- rents of the Pacific which are akin ;to the Quit Stream, that makes i England, miles north of Canada so much milder than that of middle ! Canada, ... . , .( "Ptodactlon has. started,, fnd , ra-, ' aid expansion Is expected," sa,ys Editor Pullen. Better Era i Everyone anticipates a new and better era with foe disappearance of the devastating politically man- j aged utilities which are so demoralizing to the civic structure of any city. As the Dally News states: "The fashion of yesterday was to decry large corporations and their work. Prince Rupert is happy in having one of the most powerful of these corporations interested in the city. Men of wealth and Influence now I recognise Prince Rupert as an lm-rt.ant wnt with a great future. We suggest' that so far as possible the city shall co-operate with this ; company in bringing about improved conldtions, in generally advanc- . ing the business ef the port, and in making the city so progressive and important that it will be the wonder of the rest of the country." This is a somewhat different viewpoint of fifteen years ago when Prince Rupert was in the hands of the saloon keepers, liquor dealers and commission agents whose sole idea was to sell the citizens something and cash the city's p.y checks over the brass rail. A city in ' its solid growth usually outgrows; its socialistic views on capital and enterprise, L. T f.ll In lino ..,11V. ' communistic basis. Giscome Women's Institute Names GISCOME. Feb.
