ON oe WHAT RECIPROCITY WILL DO WEDNESDAY, AuG. 16 In addition to reducing the cost of living, opening up great markets for our lumber, our fish and our minerals, reciprocity will double the present population of Prince Rupert. This statement is made on the authority of J. P. Todd of Seattle, whom the Seattle Daily Times declares is ‘‘the best posted man on fishing matters in the Northwest.”’ Not that J. P. Todd is a friend of reciprocity. J. P. Todd is allied to those ‘‘interests’’ who prosper under a tariff. His men have been accustomed to go in their boats out to the Canadian halibut banks and load up. The Canadian fishermen could not come into the mar- ket. There was a duty of a cent a pound on the fish caught by a Canadian fisherman. This corralled the market for J. P. Todd and the Seattle fishermen, leaving the Canadian fishermen out in the cold. This is what J. P. Todd says in an interview in the Seattle Daily Times: “Under the reciprocity bill fish are admitted free of duty. If this measure carries, the halibut fleet that makes Seattle its headquarters will move to Prince Rupert as soon as the Grand Trunk Pacific is completed to the Coast.” “The loss to Seattle will be whatever money or business 6,000 fishermen involve.” What money and business do six thousand fishermen involve? In the first place there are the wives and families of the married fishermen. Six thousand fishermen will have at least six thousand dependents; probably twice that -mount. Six thousand fishermen will nced between them several thousand homes. Those homes will have to be built by Prince Rupert car- penters. They will have to be built on lots at present held by lot owners in this city. Six thousand fishermen and their families will need food, they | will need clothes, they will bring abundant wants with them, all of which the merchants of Prince Rupert will have to satisfy. Six thousand fishermen will need boats and repairs. The trade of a fleet of six thousand fishermen in Prince Rupert will keep a ship- yard and several engine works busy. Reciprocity will remove the tax of $1.25 per thousand from en Columbia rough lumber. Reciprocity will open the markets of the Southern Pacific States! to the lumber of British Columbia. Reciprocity will turn our forests into wealth production, give employment to many thousands of men. Reciprocity will necessitate the erection of many sawmills through- out the province. : Reciprocity will make trade for lines of vessels carrying lumber | from British Columbia to the ports of the lower coast. and Reciprocity will open the market of the Pacific States immediately. | In two years’ time the Panama Canal will be open to the the world. Reciprocity plus the Panama Canal, in two years’ time will open the markets of every state on the Atlantic coast | from Texas to Maine to the lumber of British Columbia. vessels of | ® No wonder the lumbermen of British Columbia want reciprocity. Reciprocity means the dawn of a new and brighter day in British Columbia's commercial history.

The lumber industry, like the coal industry, will receive an enormous impetus under reciprocity. hath ahs termes cunt wit te expan NEW WESTMINSTER NOW WANTS A SNIFF YACHT : of a few cleared valleys, is covered with forests. The spectacle of forest covered mountains which grects the eye of every Prince Ruperter which ever way he turns, is the spectacle which greets the prospector | and traveller all over the country. The whole of the inland passage from Vancouver to Prince Rupert is practically lined with forests which stretch as far as the eye can see, and for hundreds of miles beyond. Much of this land is staked and leased by lumbermen and specu- lators, but very little effort is made to cut the timber. The reason is that there is not a sufficient market. Our forest wealth must remain potential wealth merely. For lack of a sufficient market it cannot be turned into money or into other commodities. A few hundred miles south of Vancouver is a great country almost devoid of trees. Every foot of lumber required there has to he imported, The logical thing to do would be to import it from British Columbia where our forests are choked with the uncut growth. But the United States tariff imposes a tax of $1.25 per thousand on British Columbia lumber to keep British Columbia lumber out of the markets of the South Pacific States. Billions of feet of lumber are taken to San Pedro and San Diego from Washington and Oregon, but not from British Columbia. What will reciprocity do for the lumber industry of British Col- umbia?
