W’BRIDE’S POLICY OF EXPANSION. DatLy EDITION. WEDNESDAY, FEB. 21 Of McBride's policy in furnishing every settler with a road to his holding over which he could carry in his supplies, of his establishing schoo] houses every mile or so for the education of the settler’s children, The Daily News has several times had something to say on behalf of the settlers up the Skeena as well as those so sadly neglected in this respect on the Queen Char- lotte Islands. His statements in this regard read like the glowing accounts of an advertising agent for an unscrupulous real estate firm. Lately attention has been turned to the Peace River country and Vancouver has decided that the trade and commerce of this next door neighbor of ours belongs to her, instead of Prince Rupert. They have the powerful influence of the premier back of their efforts and by, with and through his aid a railway is to be run from Vancouver to the Peace River country. Do not permit this to trouble you; Prince Rupert is going to get that trade. ‘This guff of Premier McBride is only another of his pie-crust promises. It is not a fact that it was only a month or two ago that McBride discovered that the Peace River country was part of the wide domain over which he is the supreme dictator. The provincial government have been advertising in their pamphlets the wonderful possibilities of that country. They quote Professor John Macoun that there are there from five to ten thousand miles of the finest kind of agricultural land. Of this the government has reserved on the Peace and Parsnip rivers some four millions five hundred acres, for pre-emption it is alleged; but it has sold hundreds of miles of this fine agricultural land to big coloniza- tion companies and has received the money for it. Was any part of this revenue spent in that locality? The provincial govern- ment is now endeavoring to acquire a block of three million and a half acres which was deeded to the Dominion government years ago for railway purposes. Suppose our friend Dick gets his paws on this, will he carry out the original purpose of the grant and build a railway? For guidance into the future gaze deeply into the past. The government of British Columbia, en- gaged in selling the Peace River agricultural !ands in tracts, advertising beautiful land for pre-emption and collecting fees from the innocent settler for years, has not as yet built ONE SINGLE WAGON ROAD IN OR LEADING INTO THE PEACE RIVER COUNTRY. Doesn't it look as if somebody was a mere bag of wind and liable to have a pin stuck into him at the forth- coming provincial election? RECIPROCITY LIKELY TO BE RESURRECTED. Reciprocity does not appear to be a dead issue in Saskatche- wan at any rate. In the Legislature at Regina J. D. Stewart, M. P. P., introduced a resolution reaffirming the belief of the assembly in reciprocity and condemning the opposition members for their change of heart in following the behests of their party during the reciprocity campaign and stultifying their own vote of last year. None of the Tory members dared oppose the reso- lution on its principle, their int2ntion to vote against is being explained on the theory that it was introduced for party purposes. | One by one the Tories stood up in the Legislature and adinitted that they thought just as they did a year ago when they un-| qualifiedly endorsed a similar resolution. Mr. Stewart did not let them off as easily as the members j of the British Columbia Legislature got off on their vote on the naval question. They had to take their medicine and raise their voices in favor of the measure which they voted to defeat last September on strictly party lines. Great is Tory consistency everywhere.
