Following is the ex- tract from the program covering this distriet: Prince Rupert and Skeena River. Starting from Vancouver, this excursion permits of a sea voy- age of five hundred miles along the west coast of British Colum- bia, whieh is notable for its mountains and fiords, From Prince Rupert, the terminus the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, the journey will be made by rail up the Skeena River valley to Hazelton. Since the first meeting of the congress in Paris in 1878, meet- ings have been held in Italy, Ger- many, England, the United States of America, Switzerland, Russia, Austria, Mexico and Sweden. At the last congress, held in Stock- holm in #910, there was an at- tendance of 850, and it is expect- ed that this number will be ex- ceeded in Canada next year. Geviogists from every quarter of the globe will attend the con- gress, and for many it will be their first visit to Canada. They will include professors from the leading universities and mining schools, officers of the various government geological surveys and mining departments and geologists and mining engineers in private practice. uf nn See dl ben Tr ... Tharsd Princess Royal. ove s ee FIGHT EXTRA—JOHNSON AWARDED THE DECISION GREAT MEN IN RAIL CIRCLES SET OUT ON TOUR OF WEST Hon. Frank Cochrane, Minister of Railways, and Commission of. = ee Prince Rupert Particularly. The value of the annual min- eral output of Canada has stead. , ily increased year by year for the last thirty years and is now over one hundred million dollars. Con- sidering, however, the known re- sources and the enormous terri- |tory whose resources are un- | known, this output is small, and | Canada needs more men and more of| money for prospecting, develop- jment and operation. This she ean best secure by attracting, not the general public, but those people whose business it is to en- gage in such industries and who understand their management. Geologists and mining engineers are obviously those best able to influence opinion in their own countries on the subject in which they are reeognized authorities, hence the opportunity afforded by the meeting in Canada of so many eminent specialists should not be neglected. Every effort should be made to show to the world that while our known min- eral resources are large, we have an immense unde- veloped territory awaiting the advent of the trained prospector. It is this as- pect which makes the visit so important to Prinee Ru- pert.
