Oh,
The conference of engineers and
hydrographers of the geological sur
vey, just held In Washington, bronght
to a fitting close the third field sea
son of the reclamation service.
The paRt year has been one of un
usual Importance to tee bureau. Ac
tual construction has commenced on
two large projects, one of which has
progressed to a point where water
will be supplied to at least 60,000
acres next year. The operations of
the engineers have excited wide
spread Interest In the west and in
only a slightly less degree In the east
where the large manufacturing inter
ests have awakened to the import
ance of the work. . ,
Since the Inception of the service
the general conduct ol the work has
been under the charge of the hydro-
graphic branch and chif engineer of
the reclamation service, T. H. New
ell. He has from time to time added
to his advisory board consulting en
gineers and specialists of experience
and ability, the general staff now In
cluding the following:
Arthur P. Davis, assistant chief
engineer; J. P. LlpplncOtt, H. N. Sav
age, C. H. Fitch, and L. H. Taylor,
supervising engineers; G. T. W'lsener,
J. H. Qulnton. B. M. Hall, construct

The manufacture of poetry does not
seem to be In any immediate danger
of becoming one of the lost arts. The
singers in every land still find Inspir
ation, and of course, there is some ex
cuse for spring poetry bursting out
spontaneously in mid-winter in a cli
mate like this, particularly aa a vis
iting brother of the craft sometimes
ago dubbed this country, "Our Lady
of the Snows." A name which stuck
and rather created the Impression
that for six months of the year this
whole country from the Atlantic to
the Pacific revelled in several feet of
the beautiful. I
Of course, Vancouver, "The Sunset
Gateway of the Dominion" resents
this Impression; and the sojourner
within her gates these winter months,
noting the well-trimmed hedges,
grassy lawns, flowering shrubs and
singing birds, will be a little slow to
question her right to do so.
This Is a comparatively new town,
only one house In it dating back far
ther than 1886. In that year the whole
town, excepting one house xvas de
stroyed by fire, but it rose from the
ashes; and while there are not many
skyscrapers as yet ground room be
ing still plentiful it presents a fair
ly thriving a-ppearance.
Canadian Pacific Dominates,
Of course, one of the first impres
sions the traveler Is apt to receive Is
that one gigantic corporation, the C.
P. R., owns the place. He lands from
a C. P. R. train and finds C. P. R.
waterfront, wharves, warehouses.
steamboats and hotel, and although
later he discovers quite a variety of
private ownership, the first impres
sion Is liable to retain much of Its
force.
The Vancouverlte regretfully ad
mits the truth of the Impression but
points to the two other trans-coutl
nental highways pointing this way;
which he thinks will give this city
chance for a. heart to heart talk with
the big corporation In the near future.
Then he proceeds to marshal an ar
ray of reasons why this city must be
reckoned with as among the big cities
of the Pacific coast, and they are
somewhat Interesting
The mineral output of this province
of which Vancouver Is the chief
city for the year Just closed, amount
ed to 20 million dollars. Equally im
pressive figures are quoted of its
shipping, lumber and fishing Indus
tries. Three thousand boats find em
ployment for the Frazer river canner
ies. Electric lines extend out 25 miles,
apparently doing good business. At
the hotels are found many people
from the eastern provinces of Manito
ba, Ontario, Nova Scotia, inquiring
about homes and locations in a more
moderate climute than is found In
those provinces.
Is Building Rapidly.
The residence portion Is building up
rapidly, one street which today is
lined on both Bides with handsome
residences, three years ago did not
have a single house.
Across the waters of Buzzard Inlet
half a mile away, is North Vancouver,
connected with the city by an hourly
ferry, and which is destined to be the
residence section, when the business
district runs out of room.
Stanley park, the city playground,
is a good sample of the forest prime
val. Around the park a good road
way seven miles long, overlooking the
waters of English bay and Buzzard
Inlet and giving a good view of the
straits of Georgia, has been made.
Several other roads cross the park In
various places, and these, with the
making of a few resting places. Is
about the only Interference with na-
ture's handiwork.
At the end of one of these cross
walks Is the Narrows. The Narrows
is a very narrow channel of deep wa
ter where English bay end and where :
Buzzard inlet begins, and though
which all the shipping which reaches
this port must pass. Ocean liners,
launches, fishing smacks, and every
variety of craft follow each other
here, and at this point pass so close
to shore that the onlooker almost
thinks he could take a Jump and land
on deck; It might not be safe to try
it, however.
The Beaver, the first steamship to
navigate the North Pacific -was
wrecked at this point, past which,
when the tide is going out, the water
rushes like (to quote a local author
ity) the mill tall of .
Tlie Hudn Bay Company.
Mention has already been made of
one powerful corporation represent
ed here; but here, also, are the
stores and warehouses of another
company which, at one time in the
country's history, exercised an Influ
ence and reaped profits which, In
proportion to the capital Invested,
would make the dividends of the first
named corporation look silly, and
what a page of ancient history it re
calls to find ones self facing a win
dow In which the goods bear the le
gend: "Hudson Bay Company. The
governor and company of adventurers
of England trading Into Hudson's Bay.
Perhaps a word or two about the
formation of this company is ai
good a way as any to close this let
ter. The first Europeans coming to
this country, says the historian, found

their living almost wholly by numing,
and these Indians were willing to sell
for very small payment, the furs of
the animals thus caught, whlcn were
eagerly desired In Europe.
A sagacious Frenchman seems to
have been the first to perceive the
advantages to be gained by u system
atlc prosecution of this commerce. He
proposed the enterprise to his coun
trymen, but it failed to command their
support. The baffled projector made
his wav to Enaland. and laid his
scheme before Prince Rupert.
A quarter of a century had passed
since the fierce churges of Rupert's
cavalry swept down the troops of the
parliament at Nascby and Newark
since he himself ha dbeen chased
from Marston Moor by the stern
Ironsides of Oliver Cromwell.
The vehemence of his youth had
mellowed down to a love of adven
ture. and he lent a willing ear to the
Ingenious Frenchman.

bestowed half the continent upon
these speculators, on no more burden

two elks and two beavers to the sov

ritory. Thus largely privileged the adven
turers entered upon a career of un
usual success. In a few years they
paid a dividend at the rate of 60 per
cent. A little later they trebled their
capital out of profits and paid to
shareholders 26 per cent upon the In

The savages who overthrew the Ro
man1 empire had Introduced to South
ern Europe the beautiful furs of the
north. Great ladles sought eagerly
for purposes of ornament, such furs
as those with which the northern
savage clothed himself and his chil
dren; sought eagerly but often un
succeosfuily, for demand outstripped
supply. The fur trade became one
of the most lucrative which the world
has ever known, which explains the
crlt'ln of the legend found in this
window today. "The Governor and
