West Coast Still
Remains aFrontier
Wild and Beautiful
Section Explored
By Modern Steamers

VICTORIA, British Columbia, May
24.-HistoriCally the oldest part of
the Pacific Northwest, yet perhaps
one of the last remaining frontiers
of civilization, is the wild, beau
tiful west coast of Vancouver Island,
British Columbia. A land without
automobiles or roads and, generally
speaking, without electricity, the
tiny Indian villages, fishing ports,
saWmillS, salmon cannery and
mining communities stretching from
Victoria northwardS to Port Alice
are outposts of Canadian commerce
and industry.
Along this coast, in the wake
of Capt Cook and Capt. Vancouver,
modern steamers are operated on
voyages Of adventure and scenic
charm from June to August 81.
Names Sketch History.
The very names of the tiny ports
along this rugged coastline of deep
fjords and inlets indicate the tide
of settlement and exploration which
wrested the land first by the Span
ish from the Indians. then by the
British from the Spanish.
Port RenfreW, at the head of San
Juan Inlet near Victoria, and Bam-
field, the cable station, are of Eng
lish origin, while the Spanish regime
is responsible for such names as
Zeballos, Esperanza Inlet, ESpinosa,
Sarita Bay and Port Alberni, the
logging city at the head of the
Alberni Canal. This commentaries
Don Pedro Alberni, the Spanish
commander, who with Capt. Cook
signed the treaty of Nootka which
turned over this district to the
British.
Still Make DugOutS.
At picturesque villages like Clo-
oose. Ucluelet. Tofino. Clayoquot,
KakaWis, Ahousat, Hesquiat, Mu-
chalat, HeCate, Tahsis. Chamiss Bay,
Kyuquot and Quatsino village, the
Indians will carry on their tribal
customs. They can still fell giant
cedar and make a dugout canoe
which may appear cumbersome, but
which they can handle deftly.
At Kyuquot Village tourists see
the Indians come out in their canoe
to pick up mail and baggage from
the steamers, which are the only
contact with the outside world for
most of the west coast settlements.
Totem poles are seen along the
coast where the tribesmen still
affect Wierd headdresSeS of fur,
