WINGRA,31 ADVANCE
CITY OF PRINE RUPERT.
Prince Report, British Colombia,
the new seeport on the Pacific Coast
which has beers founded by the grand
Trunk Pacific Company for the weet-
ern terminus of the National Owl -
continental Railway through Canada,
continues to demonstrate the btability
with which the enormous resources in
that part of the world have endowed
her, The population of about five
thousand people who have settled
there, thus forming the beginning of
this future city, have shown their
faith in its unquestioned future by
building permanent homes and busi-
ness establishments in almost every
line of trade and commerce, Not
alone is this faith confined to the
citizens of Prince Rupert, bat fore-
seeing the important factor she must
early become in the commerce of the
world, the leading banks, viz. : The
Bank of Montreal, tie° Canadian
Bank of •Commerce, the Bank of
British North America, the Royal
Bank of Canada, etc,, have located
branches there, In all of our new
Canada)] towns and cities in the West
and on the Pacific Coast, the buying
ani selling of real estate constitutes
an item of much local importance and
value, which, however, in the case of
Prince Rupert has extended beyond
the confines of the locality itself and
even beyond the 'Province and Do-
minion to other parts of the world,
for which large sums of money have
been sent for investment and develop-
ment. When the first lots in the
townsite were placed on the market
anti sold a little more than two years
ago the prices realized exceeded the
expectations of the most sanguine by,
reaching figures in many cases several
hundred per cent., and in numerous
instances as much as one thousand per
cent. above what was estimated to be
a fair valuation, and events since that
time have given no cause to change
the confidence then shown, as reports
have just been received of the sale of
an additional section of the townsite
containing about six hundred Iots, for
which there was an increasing de-
mand and which realized prices of
about two hundred per cent. above
what was considered a conservative
valuation. The completion of the
Grand Trunk Pacific Railway through
to the Pacific Coast is rapidly ap-
proaching, when trans -Pacific steam-
ships will sail from this new seaport,
and in order to be prepared for the
increased accommodation and faci-
lities that will be required, large ad-
ditional capital expenditures will be
made within the next two years, to
provide commodious hotel accom-
modations and also a dry dock and
ship repairing plant, the latter of
which will be constructed under a
subsidy granted by the Dominion
Government.
During the past year the principal
thoroughfares in the business section
of the city have been constructed to
grade, and extensive plans are at
present receiving the serious con-
sideration of the city council for
municipal improvements in the way
of heat, light, power and water, and
from the energy which bas already
been shown by the citizens, there can
be no question that her many natural
advantages will be availed of, in build-
ing a city at Prince Rupert that will
be a model of utility.
Second Attempt Failed.
The second attempt to repeal Local
Option In Owen Sound failed. After
one of the bitterest mitalcipal eon -
tests the town has ever expetienced,
loofa optiori was sustained by a
majority of 128, or fifty leoe that three
ear ago. ago. The Catmint elected is
two-thirds in favor of local option.

THE CHINESE REBELLION.. THE BEST EVER
Wilt Japan And Britain intervene.
The report that Great Britain and
Japan have notified the Chineee OQV.,
ernment of their intention jointly to
intervene In the affairs of that country
tiniest' the Government and Revolu-
tionists come to a speedy agreement,
lacks official conarrnetion. Neverthrs
lees, it acquires' at least a semblance of
truth from the fact that British in-
terests in the southern and Central
provinces and Japanese intereste in
the Northern provinces of China have
been seriously affected by the disturb-
ance of the country, due to the civil
war. Furthermore, it ie significant
that the Ja,penese Foreign Office dots
not deny the report, but is content
with saying that the publication of it
is without official sanction.
There has always been a suspicion
that Japan would prefer to see the.
present Manchu dynasty maintained
in China unhampered by the re-
strictions of a constitution and re-
presentative government. Such a
system would retard the develop-
ment upon which China has slowly
ventured during the last decade,
and would indefinitely secure Japan in
her present position as the strongest
power in the Far Hest. On the other
hand, the British people and 13ritish
governments are traditionally friend-
ly to the progress of constitutional
reform in foreign countries, and for
that reason British sympathy vtit.13
the Chinese Revolutionists is -the most
natural thing in the world, But, aa -
Burning that Great Britain and Japan
look at the Chinese situation from
Efferent angles, an agreement be.
tween them to secure the restoration
of peace is not at all improbable.
Whatever either country. may lose
ultimately through a compromise be-
tween the warring factions in China,
both stand to lose much more through
an indefinite prolongation of hostili-
ties. The .self-interest which is im-
mediate is always more considered
than the self-interest which is re-
mote.
There are two parties among the
Chinese reformers, just as there were
two parties among the men who
fought for a united Italy in the last
century. Some want a republic,
others want to maintain the Manchu
dynasty as a convenient centre for a
new system of constitutional govern-
ment. It remains to be seen which
will
When sawdust -or wood pulp is used
as part of the aggregate in mixing, the
resulting concrete is of light weight
and low tensile strength, but has some
special properties that commend it for
certain indoor uses. On account of
its elasticity, combined with its prac-
tically non-absorbent character, it is
said to be especially adapted as a
'floor veneering fdr markets, butcher shops, saloons, etc.
It may be laid without, joints, says
Cement World in a continuous layer
one and a half inches deep, upon paper
spread over the floor. that is being
treated. In these cases the customary
proportions for tnixing are one part
cement, two sand and two and a half
' sawdust. A greater proportion of
sawdust would make it too absorbent.
A novel application of sawdust
concrete has recently been made in the
New Public Library building in
Springfield, Mass. It was employed
there as a base on which to lay the
cork carpet covering the floors. The
object was to obtain a layer foto
which nails could be driven and which
at the same time would hold the
nails.
The company that laid it States
that it accomplished both purposes.
After several experiments with dia.
ferent mixtures it was found that a
1 :2 :a mix—three-fourthe of a part of
sawclust—gave the desired resalt ; and
5000 square feet of this mixture was
laid. The thickness of the layer was
one inch, and after four months, of
service indications are that the
material is a 1311dOetil•

The Report of the Minister of Justice
up to March 31, 1911, has been issued,
and from it, the Advance gleans the
following :—
The average daily population of the
Canadian penitentiaries for the past
five years, has been as follows :—In
1907, 1,433 ; in 1908, 1,418; in 1909,
1625; in 1910, 1824; in 1911, 1,834, ac-
cording to the report of the Minister
of Justice for the fiscal year ending
March. 31st, 1911, just published.
Fifteen prisoners were discharged
by pardon, 45 deported, and 22 died.
331 were paroled and 391 left on ex-
piry of sentence, leaving in custody
on March 31st last, a total for all the
prisons of 1,865.
Ten per cent. of the entire prison
population is composed of lads under
20 years of age. At St. Vincent de
Paul penitentiary the juveniles con-
stitute 15 per cent.
The net outlay for all the prisons is
$173,030, of which Kingston costs
•$100,430, and St. Vincent's de Paul
$121,205, The average daily popula-
tion is 1,831. Gross expenditure is
$525,618, and actual Cost $448,751, be-
ing $244 68 per prisoner,,or, 67 cents a
day each.
Warden Platt, of Kingston, in his
report tells .how well a large four
etordy house for the warden was
erected. entirely by convicts, and also
the work on the new hospital. The
farm returns were pot satisfactory.
The convicts' behaviour was most
satisfactory.
Warden Brown of British Columbia
penitentiary, reports a large increase
in prison population. Much of this is
attributed to unusual activity on the
part of the police.
There are 00 prisoners serving life
term :—Kingeton 30, St. Vincent 12,
Dorchester 7, B. C. 8, Alberta 3.
There are nine in the Manitoba pri-
son.
Four Kingston convicts were par-
doned during the year, among them
Annie Robinson, the woman who
figured in the revolting case near Sud-
bury, The other included an abduc-
tor from Goderich, a house breaker
from London and 5 female perjerer
from Toronto.
