Prince Rupert people often find themselves divided over politics, over policies and over many other matters, but we urge today as never before the advisability of working shoulder to shoulder for the one thing that interests us all, the advancement of Prince Ru pert. If we show a united front to the world we can attain almost anything, but if we are broken into factions, we! shall find ail our plans abortive. The lesson of today is to rouse ourselves, forget our petty differences and so act that the world will realize that Prince Rupert is to be a factor in the future progress of British Columbia and of the whole country. CONDITIONS IN THE CITY There are few places in the world where conditions of life are better than in Prince Rupert. We have all those things which make for comfortable existence and we have the satisfaction of knowing that we are in a growing community. Every year as population increases conditions will improve. We shall be in closer touch with the rest of the world. Our sons and daughters will have greater opportunities and wo shall lose that provincialism which at times is said to affect us. What we need is to have faith in our city, to support our merchants, to help develop the district which surrounds us and to feel that we are a northern country that vvi the world this way. Like t part of a great movement 'in this 1 eventually draw the eyes of all le Romans of old, we are citizens of no mean city. We have reason to be proud of what has been done in the past and optimistic as to the future. Thurston, well-known magician, leaving his home in Whltestone.

Prince Rupert has steadily evolved from a fishing village to an important trading centre and port The city has had to fight her way against much opposition to attain her present enviable position. She will still have to fight her way but it will be with the aid of financial interests that will be a great help to her. Every year she will make gains and the amount of these gains will depend very much upon the people themselves.

Wherever strikes and labor troubles were fiercest, there swas "Mother?. Jones, in her little black bon-, net and with her biting, eloquent tongue. She had the power to make men follow her, even sometimes against the dictates of higher-ups in the labor world. She started out in the 70's championing the cause of the laborer, to secure for him better working and living conditions. Nothing stopped her or turned her back, whether It was militia or governors. Her activities were most spectacular In the mines of Colorado, the coal fields of West Virginia and the cotton mills of the south. Mother Jones saw plenty of hardship and trouble in her early years and the conflicts of the Amerlean. working man appealed both to her sympathies' and her love of daring. She was bom in Cork, Ireland, May 1, 1830. Her father, Richard Harris, i an Irish agitator, came to Ameriea and obtained a Job with a railroad 1 construction crew in Toronto. His family soon joined him. Mary's first experiences in the working world, which started soon after she finished common school, alternated between sewing audi teaching. In 1861 she married a young iron- moulder whom she met in Memphis. Just as she was enjoying domestic life with her husband and four children, the yellow fever epidemic in 1867 swept them all away. Pursued By Trouble ',,'it was the sight of hungry Jobless men in the winter of 1871 in Chi cago, tramping the freezing lake front which she could .see through her window, which sent Mary Jones headlong Into the labor movement.

From then on her days were one stormy succession of dra-j matlc events. She was Jailed, threa tened, deported from, states and went through all manner of hard ships. , Mother Jones celebrated her one- hundredth .birthday at the country home of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Bur gess, near Silver Springs, Maryland, with a big party. Telegrams from labor organizations came from all over the country, including one of congratulation from her old "enemy," John D.

The speaker told of standing be fore the people of Prince Rupert two years ago in the Westholmej Theatre and making certain prom-1 ises. All that he had promised then ' had been redeemed 100.
