The "conscription issue," evidently, did not bear great weight in the election campaign as far as the service, men themselves were concerned, as evidenced by the marked minority .of. the service vote which the Progressive-Conservatives, great critics of the government manpower policy, received. Even here in Skeena, where we had a popular overseas soldier as the Progressive-Conservative candidate, that party was accorded a mere twenty-one percent of the total service vote. The proof of the pudding, after all, is in the eating and the policy of voluntary enlistment for overseas, while it might have had a narrow squeak and might not have been popular with a lot of us, did work out. To discuss what might or might not have happened had circumstances been different than they were is not worth the further time or effort. The whole thing is a dead issue. Responsibility for Highway . . . The- Prince Rupert Chamber of Commerce is justifiably irritated over the situation whereby the new Prince Rupert Highway is being booted back and forth between the federal and provincial governments with responsibility1 for its maintenance meanwhile up in the air. The OFFICIAL COUNT ON JULY FIFTH Service Vote in Skeena Was Proportionate to Civilian in Distribution of Preference Election figures for the riding of Skeena as far as now compiled and giving the aCJVcandldate, Harry Archibald, a plurality of 750 over E. T. Applewhalte, Liberal, are as yet unofficial and do not take Into account Allison Harbor, a poll In the extreme south of the riding, which has yet to he heard from. All other polls have been reported. The official count, will take place on July 5 but Interest in It will be merely perfunctory since the result Is so clear cut already. Skeena riding's 711 armed service voters followed closely the trend of last Monday's civilian LOAFER COAT Just the thing for casual wear . . . for sport, outings, or just 'lolling' around. In two-tone shades . . . In varied combinations. highway, we are led to believe, is not' in such bad shape so far but, naturally, if something, is not done regularly to maintain it, it must deteriorate and, if the deterioration is allowed to go long enough with no attention, it will get in a serious and eventually impassable condition. Vigorous protestations of lack of responsibility by either side notwithstanding, local, people have justification in feeling impatient about the situation and are loath to accept orphanship of the road as an excuse for nobody doing anything to care for it. In Secrecy Is, Safety . . . The Socialist city council of Prince Rupert persists in the practice of resorting to committee of the whole sessions which the press, if not debarred, is not welcomed to attend. Reporters are not anxious about wasting their time at routine committee sessions but are always desirous of getting interesting news and views for the public which is entitled to be informed through the press what its elected representatives are doing and saying. As far as we are aware, there is no longer any business with which the city council has to deal news of which it is necessary to suppress because of security reasons. We recall that in the old days of "capitalistic" city councils the "socialistic" members were only too happy to have the press on hand to take down their speeches and publicize their views freely. There was no city council "StarXhamber" in those days. But times change. Now that the socialists have the responsibility they evidently find it inconvenient if not embarrassing to have the reporters listening in on everything they say and do. Music Contestants Are Sought Here Announcing that eight scholarships were being offered, the B. C. Institute of Music and Drama had a communication before the Prince Rupert Chamber of Commerce Monday night. The communication was referred to the Music Appreciation Club with a view 'to developing competition locally. vote, It was revealed this morning when returns on the military vote reached Returning Ctfficer T. W. Brown. The service vote gave C. C. F. candidate L.A.C, Harry. Archibald a substantial plurality of 120 over Applewhalte. The figure pattern was surprisingly similar to in proportion to the civilian returns. Priced at $10.00 "THE MEN'S SHOP" FOR YOUR BETTER SATISFACTION quality foodstuffs are carried at all times.
