his knowledge of northern affairs
that is more significant than many
might think. It is with much sat
isfaction no doubt that Ottawa
linds there a member so well in
formed on the resources of the l>o
uiinions's greatest gold producing
realm, one so well versed on the
utrange and promising resources of
this fascinating land, one so inti
uiatt with conditions of Canada's
vast hinterland.
Yukou should consider itself for
tunate in having such an able and
pleasing advocate at the seat of gov
ernment, and where he can do so
much to educate the people of the
nation in regard to this vast North
land. By having there one so hold
