WILL DO ITS SHARE President Beatty Urges Looking Forward as Well as Backward in Celebration' (By E. W. Beatty) This year of celebration Is no less an excellent point from which to took forward than It is from which to look 1 back. We are a nation firmly established and having an historic background that must Inspire national pride and .national courage. Our1 land Is one of vast potential wealth and we have brought to a high state of efficiency our machinery of government, trans ! ,101 tation and other public service upon j which to build In the future. Industry wsca upon natural rcsoustcs is an xccllcnt condition, and most of all, wc have a resourceful, rigorous . and In telligent people with Ideas of govern ment soundly bused upon common enso principles. We have so-called national problems, but these are far from difficult of solution. Wc have the Secgraphlc difficulty of wide spaces separating our more thickly populated areas, In which development of wealth production Is flow, thus adding to our cost of transportation and government. I believe the solution of this difficulty I to be found In Immigration. We ?rcd more people lu Canrda, and we can successfully assimilate more than we are now receiving, Of those who 're coining now, the vast majority will be comparatively prosperous and t;ulte contented. It may be that a few will fall to fit lu and that we shall f-ear much more from these than from the others, but our own pride In Canada and our own knowledge of the pjiot-tunltles that exist here which are j much greater than those that faced ur fathers years ego, should remind us lhat the fault is not necessarily with Canada or Its Government or with the agencies that brought these people here.

TIMBERING INDUSTRY OF PRINCE RUPERT DISTRICT ONE OF MOST IMPORTANT AS WEALTH PRODUCER (continued from page seven) participated In Its development. Foremost among these may be counted a real Prince Rupert man. Olof Hanson. a raw youth from Sweden, walked Into Prince Rupert over twenty years ago becauss he could not afford to ride. Vision, energy and thrift were a large part of his make-up and success was the natural consequence. Hanson started hewing ties and poles for him self but It was not long before h had, as he has now, hundreds of men working for him, filling some of the largest orders given on the continent 'or ties, poles and piling. Now they -all him 'The Hemlock King" and there Is talk of his wealth but, to his friends and they are legion, he Is till Just plain "Ole." Another local man who has been In strumental tn the development of the timber In these parts la John R. Mor gan. Starting logging operations In the war days, he has operated practically steadily, mobl of his production now going to the pulp mills. Despite practical blindness, he still continues actively In charge. Thomas A. Kellcy, a Vancouver man, ha been responsible for extensive opcr atlona on the Queen Charlotte Islands for a period extending over ten years, There he has worked on a large scale for the decade, only market conditions and over production causing his re cent shutdown. But, if his friends Judge him aright, Tom did not close down before he had to and he will be up and going again at the first op portunlty. Frank L. Buckley, another Vancouver man, has also been Instrumental In rocurlng timber development In the district. He has put several plants on their feet and established others. He has been a booster for this district and has Interested much capital In It, Other local men who have interested themselves in the .development of the timbering Industry with good results have been W. E. Williams, M. P. Mc Caffery, O, W. Nlckerson and C. P. Rlel. As said before, the future Is all ahead of the timbering Industry In Prince Rupert and the Central Interior. All the necessary natural resources and capabilities are here. Money Is also available for their development. All that Is needed now are those economic circumstances of market demand and other essentials that permit of profit able operation. Then will be Instituted the full development of one of the world's greatest and most prolific resourcesthe timber stand of Central British Columbia, Immediately adjacent and tributary to the city of Prince Rupert. THE DAILY NEWS Monday, June 27, 1937 MINES SOURCE GREATWEALTH Besides Shipping Mines, Other Properties Show Great Promise for Future SMELTER IS NEEDED Portland Canal and Central Interior Chief Centres of Activity A local citizen, speaking In public tht other day, said all one had to do was to, sink, a couple of stakes anywhere in the central Interior of Briton Coluablj of in the Tortland Canal or Observatory Inlet regions and he had a promising .uiue. 'ihe allusion was designed and taken with mirth but. perhaps, there was more truth to it than was propqse or accepted. It was not a far fetched Illustration of the mineral wealth of the region contiguous to Prince Rupert. Mining to the average mind Is ever considered metlilrig of a gamble. It is indeed, a fascinating pursuit and In these' parts it Is no less glamorous than elsewhere though the chances to win would seem a little better. They say that the mineral wealth of this district like, many other of its natural resources. Is as yet hardly scratched. Albeit many fortunes have been made therefrom In Central and Northern British Columbia's so"' far brief hletory. A legion of prospectors' have become wealthy men al ready and many millions of dollars have ben"extracted In the way of gold, sliver and '-copper from the district's bills and valleys. KICIIKST MINKS -r Two ' of Canada's richest gold and copper, mines lie the short distance of little . more than one hundred miles from the city of Prince Ilupert. The now world famous Premier gold mine up-the Salmon River from Stewart Is undoubtedly but one of the many that wilt be developed. The old Bush mine was" located, surface scratched and pass ed over nearly twenty years ago in the first Stewart boom. Then a decade later it was gone into a little more thoroughly and Its' wealth revealed. Since, then millions' of dollars of ore TOM .MOORE President of the Dominion Trades and Labor Congress have been taken from It and, now the Dominion's record dividend payer. It still has untold millions but awaiting removal. The operation of the Hidden Creek mine at Anyox has been less, spectacular than that of the Premier although constituting a bigger undertaking. For these post twelve years its copper wealth has been steadily mined and. with smelter, concentrator and coke plant, a thousand people or more have been employed. The ere supply yet holds out and fluctuation In volume nl operations has been regulated only by market conditions. Belmont-Surf Inlet on Princess Royal Island, down the coast was. a big thing In Its day. Inevitably the time must come when every mine shall be worked out. Such was the case with Surf In let but. during Its life. It paid well and nobody was out when exhaustion came. Al.lti; .tlt.M At Alice Arm, a fortune was paid for the Dolly Varden mine which was ruthlessly gutted of Its highest grade ore, Poor mining and mismanagement eventually made a failure of that mine, dealing a blow to the Alice Arm district from which It has hardly yet recovered. But activity In that camp Is resuming and. for others, the Dolly- Varden mis take msy some day have turned out to be a profitable failure. CKNTIU1, INTKICIOIt Turning to the central Interior, first and foremost for attention Is the Duthle gold and silver mine on Hudson Bay Mountain. A Seattle millionaire took that group In hand and spent generously on Its development. Nor was he unrewarded for much rich mineral has been taken out and, to for, the most of it has beer, but back, flow, with the liuu:i'jon of a mill, the Duthle Mine should settle down to an era of steady and scientific production. Bo far only the more Important pro duclng mines of some period of time have been referred to Newly proven properties have not been mentioned. In this class may be .Included for Stewart the Dunwell mine on the Bear River which, during the past few months, has started milling ore till a voluma of F. A. P.ULINE Agent General for B.C. In London 100 tons per day has been reached. In the category of proven though still developing mines are the B.C. Silver, Big Missouri and others. Work on these and a legion others give promts: of making Stewart this season and for rome years to come the North Amerl- an continent's most active and pro mlnent camp. Rapidly coming on In otlK-r parts of the district may be included the Torlc At Alice Arm with the prospect of the Dolly Varden coming back; the Topley mines In the Interior! the Seven Sisters at Cedarvale; the Silver Cup and others at' Hazelton. and even the PatUrson mine on Porcher Island clone to Prince Rupert harbor as to which, however, still much needs yet be proven. In a district of such Immense showings and posclblllttes as this any treatise, save It be from the jx-n of an ex-iert writer, must needs be brief and Incomplete. There are many properties -hat might well have been mentioned "-ere where here only those that have been In the public eye of late have been rferred to. The very vastness of he district goes to. humble the attempt of any one to adequately describe It. SMII.TKII MKDtl) An obvious conclusion Is that this part of the country Is but on Ue ireshold of a period of' mining development which may attain to a point uch as the world hut nvcr before ;nown To handle the production there will have to be many facilities not now assessed. First of the necessities to resent itself forcibly to mind Is the aJJll.-ihmeut of a general custom f-lte; Until such, and perhaps more than one has been provided, full avail ai.not be mode of this district's great mineral resources. Prince Rupert, cen- -at between, the great fields a hundred :r so miles north and those In the east besides those closer to hand on the coast. looks like the logical place for th.-next smelter undertaking tn this ter- Itory It is also evident that the next smelter must have facilities for rcflnlnp, copper and other metals. Such la the ea. - tit now a-'.d until It is given It wiii he lmpcMlble to take care of the output of district mines at home. When Prince Rupert cr other district points become able to handle the production r their mines as well as supply them vrith the things that are needed, be they food, clothes, machinery or what not, then and not until then will the great mining Industry of Norttern and Central British Columbia assume Its economic and proper state of CANADA'S GREATEST STATESMEN; ONE CONSERVATIVE, ' ONE LIBERAI, OF WHOM ALL ARE PROUD (continued from page seven) tain tbclr most complete confidence. Elsewhere, he had succeeded In convincing his audiences by the ower of his Ideas, but by the music of his phrase, but Ontario offered difficulties much harder to overcome. Ontario was noon enraptured. Laurler had Just been elected leader of his party, and when he started on his speech tou rln Ontario, Blake was suddenly stricken wiyv an Illness which was considered by some as diplomatic. Outside of Toronto, his victory had been comparatively easy, but even when he was surrounded by those he looked upon as his stauuehest enemies, the overwhelming power of his eloquence changed a predicted defeat to a feure trtupmph. His first election as Prima Minister took place Immediately after, and historians of today are still wondering on what unforseen hope In sight he launched such a perilous adventure It not his Indomitable energy, and the love cf . his country. One of the' deepest sorrows of his life was the trend of political events In Canada during the Oreat War. Do. rented In 1011 ,011 a double platform: the naval question and reciprocity, he was no'1Ionger Prime ' Mjnlster when (he war.broke out, Unable to1 lead his party as he would have liked it, the ordeal he suffered hastened the end of his life. He died In 1010, and the wholo nation paid respects to his remains which now lie' In Notre Dame cemetery. What was Laurler's doctrine on Confederation? First of all, a fundamental principle: Confederation was a compromise between an alliance and a complete fusion.

It Is substantially the principles of (he Fathers of Confederation. It would be erroneous to think, how-ever, Uiat Laurler had a strong leaning towards Confederation. He was against It In 1807.
