CLEAN CANNERIES.

Prof. Prince Found Condltlona Very Sanitary In the North.

Prof. Prince while In the North took occasion to Inspect the canneries for the purpose of seeing If everything connected with them were clean and sanitary. The result of the visit Is the following statement by Prof. Prince:

"The canneries of Northern British Columbia, all of which with one excep­tion I visited, are absolutely cleanly, ahd everywhere I found the greatest care exercised in the packing of sal mon. The canneries, being right on the water, are always in a sanitary condi­tion, and at all times and in all places 1 found that packing conditions could not be improved upon so far aa clean lines» Is concerned, or in any other way for that matter.”

It will be remembered that a com­mittee of the fisheries commission also visited the tanneries on the Fraser. Their report Is likewise that all was satisfactory and cleanliness - prevailed in all of them.

given In the report as $190.000.Third—To build a new pumping «ta­

lion at Elk lake; a reservoir on Bald hill; and the redistribution that is com­mon" to all. Aid. Davey made this urt^ posai at the last meetng. seconded by Aid. Douglas, and it shoul.J come up ♦ first to-night. The estimated ""cost is $474.000. and It is founded on estimate—££ F as suggested by expert Adams. The coat of his project, however, is reduced by the elimination of $51.000 for the oa; of 3,400 meters and the building of

a 12-lncb pipe to connect with VictoriaWest at a cost of $15,000.__

How the vote will go thta evening 1» — matter of much conjecture. The

water committee's report is supported unanimously by th* members. Aids. Stewart, Fell .and Hall, and they have

strong coadjutor In Aid. Fullerton. Although Aid. Douglas has seconded Aid. Davey’s motion, he is apparently much In favor of the water committee, and will likely, 1f It comes to a showdown, vote with them. With the foui--------mentioned a clear majority of the aldermen wej»S8 be secured. Aid. Viu- uent. although somewhat Ihbre "Bfiti- commlttal. was inclined this morning to lean in the direction of the commit­tee. He is a strong advocate of a cam- plete system of meters and a new re­distribution. so practically supports the water committee with the exception of • a very small proposition of their pro­posed expeldlture. Aid. Go^acre has not expressed an opinion one way or another since the two later schemes were brought forward. On the only occasion, however, he spoke on the subject he expressed himself a believer in Elk lake. " .

Aid. Davey W certainly hoi sup­port the Mayor. He said this morning that HI» Worship’s scheme, proposing to spend $267.910 on a temporary ex­pedient w as not, in his Idea, a good one. and that anything done regarding Elk lake should be permanent, and not merely for the time being. He will support the committee If hla motion for an alternative achem'e -does not pass.

Aid. Douglas, who was also seen, said" that if the Esquimau company did not come down In Us figures he was rather Inclined to favor the wat.er committee’s Idea. He. believes the Highland district should be fully In­vestigated. ami if the large am rtttl water believed to be there la existent
