DAILY EDITION Saturday, July 25, 1938 A detailed report of the meeting at Peace River at which it was decided to commence a campaign for autonomy has arrived. Our old triend Page Kuieout presided and other speakers were M. W. Eager, LL.B. of Grande Prairie and C..W. Frederick, newspaper editor and owner. To us the most interesting part of the proceedings was the chairman's introductory address in which he recoun ted what happened at St. John, N.B. The advent of stee ships had taken all the business awav from the port to the United States but the Beaver line offered to give them a This advertisement Is not published or displayed by the Liquor Control Board or by the Government of British Columbia.

Sir John Macdonald promised it but nothing was done. Finally a telegram was sent to Sir John stating that, if the mail contract were not signed within forty-eight hours, the resignation of eight members of the federal house would be in the speaker's hands. The contract was signed and the line of steamships has been in operation ever since. Reference was then made to Prince Rupert in the following words: "In Prince Rupert the Peace River country has a port similar to St. John, N.B. But In the debates in the House of Commons on harbors, R. B. Bennett said it was no port as far as the vote was concerned." Mr. Rideout went on to show what would happen if the country had its own legislative assembly and cabinet representation at Ottawa instead of having been a kind of overflow of the province of Alberta. Other speakers told of the promise made by Sir Henry Thornton mat as soon as tne country raiseu ten million bushels of wheat an outlet to the coast would be com menced. But nothing had been done. "Where is the money coming trom ' was one ot the pleas. The speakers claimed that they were being exploited lor the rest of the province and to Keep a buncn or legislators. If they remained in active they would never get anywhere. They could not be "The true north strong and free" unless thev made their desires known m no uncertain manner. Courage and pluck were needed to carry out the scheme. Taking a lesson from what is being done in the Peace River, we suggest that, unity of action is needed in Prince Rupert. We have to stapd together and let our wishes be known if we are to get anywhere. We also have to show that we are "The time north strong and free." We should have a steamship line plying out of this port in co-operation with the Canadian National system. We should be connected with this wonderfully rich Peace River country by rail. We should insist that our elevator be operated as something more than a huge storage bin. We should make a big effort to secure the cannery business which rightfully belongs to Prince Rupert. We cannot afford to sit back and watch other places make progress while we stand still.
