United States, and these met with
hearty response. In his speech of wel
come. Chairman Cuthbert told of the
splendid co-operation given him by
Charles S. Fee. of the Southern Pacific
Railroad., when he was In California
some years ago for the purpose of "put
ting Victoria on the map." He told of
Victoria's progress and prophesied that
"when the Panama Canal Is completed,
the City of Victoria will be In the race
for the commerce of the Pacific, Just
as much as the City of San Francisco."
In the absence of Mayor Beckwith,
of Victoria, who was called East. C. H.
Lugrin paid a high tribute to the ex
position city. He said that San Fran
cisco was noted "for her fair women
and brave men. but since the great
calamity of 190S it was noted for her
brave men and brave women, because
they had the courage to rise above
their misfortune and set an example
to the world by rebuilding their city
better than before."
"We of the 'Flying Legion,' said
Mayor Rolph. "came from the Golden
City by the Golden Gats, within the
Golden State, and we bring you mes
sages of good-will and good wishes.
We want to see you progress Just as
fast as you can, because the more you
progress, the better It is for the Paci
fic Coast.
Port Must be Ready.
"We realize that In order to attract
the trade and commerce of the world
we must make our port ready and our
city attractive. We are spending ?10.
000,000 on new piers, wharves and
docks. We are also spending $8,800,090
on the construction of a new city hall
and a civic center, and we are trying
to make the City of San Francisco a
clean, golden city of the Golden West.
The United States has placeu in our
hands the exposition that is to cele
brate the completion of the great canal,
and we will be ready to open its doors
on February 20, 1915.
"Some 60.000,000 of dollars will be
expended in that enterprise. Eighteen
.foreign countries have accepted the
President's invitation, and I am grati
fied to announce that Canada is among
that number. Come there in 1915, where
I may at that time have the honor of
bidding you welcome."
Sir Richard McBride received an en
thusiastic reception when he arose to
speak. He is the idol of British Colum
bia, and is responsible for the great
progress made by the province in the
past five years. He told of the plan to
expend the sum. of $720,000,000 In the
next four years on public Improvements.
Sir Richard Welcomes.
"I feel greatly privileged this after
noon." said' Sir Richard, "to be in the
position of bidding you a hearty wal-'
come to the Province of British Colum
bia. It seems to me that from her
very earliest history this section of
Canada had very close contact with
the Golden State of California. What
was in the early '50s only a colony haw
grown into one of the greatest prov
inces in the Dominion of Canada.
"After all, we are the great Anglo
Saxon race. We are a very powerful
factor In the civilisation of the world
and I may say. too. I think we can
claim to be a very considerable agency
In the plan of insuring the peace of
the world." t
President Benjamin Ide W heeler de
livered a scholarly speech. He dis
cussed trade conditions and the prog
ress of- the Nation. He described the
Pacific Coast as the hem of the West
ern Continent. He said that the Pa
cific Ocean must become the great
arena where will be settled the fates
of the nations.

"It Is demoralising for the, prisoners
and a tremendous cost to the state.
Prisoners brood in Jail; they have noth

"Now, take an Island like San Clem

would be no possibility of escape, make
them support themselves, and the prob

homes, till their own gardens, make
their own farming implements, raise
their own cattle, manufacture their own
hats, shoes, clothing, wagons and
everything else they require.
"I would have what they earned
above their own wr.nts go to the sup
port of their families, so that the fam
ilies would not become a charge of the
stale. The criminal instinct would soon
be eradicated and we would have on
San Clemente capable men, producers,
who earned their bread by the sweat
of their brows not malcontents, al

pardon."
