Harry

said
at
the
annual
meeting
of
the
Prince
Rupert
Chamber
of
Commerce
where
he
was
a
guest
last
night
that,
regardless
of
whether
one
was
a
free
enterprlzer
or
a
socialist,
it
must
be
admitted
by
all
that

had
more
and

to
do
these
days
with
the
prosperity
of
the
country
and
its

There
was
a

Mr.
Archibald,

felt
that
