The North Star Mine makes another Shipment to Smelter On Tuesday last the North Star mine made a shipment of approximately 90 tons of ore which was mined last winter. Owing to tjio trail giving out it was too. expensive to haul, and the balance of the ore mined, amounting to about 60 tons was left in the bunker at the mine, Considerable ruby silver and some native silver showed in this shipment, and the returns should be fairly high.- The last shipment gave returns of 37.4 ozs. per ton, and this ore looks of much higher grade. The development work done at the mine during the winter proved the existence of a considerable body of ore at the 90ft. level. This ore body which is 60 feet in length and averages over 5 feet in width, averages over 50 ozs. silver per ton. The ore shows considerable native and ruby silver, and some argentite and Stepbanite. The lower tunnel was exf .<»A a distanoe of 70 feet, the face of the tunnel being now 180 feet from the portal. A crosscut was driven 16 feet towards the foot-wall, but did not reach it, this cross-cut shows the ledge to be at least 24 feet wide. A stope on the ore was driven 26 feet from which " most of this shipment was mined. A winze sunk on the ore for 10 feet furnishing the balance of the ore. The stope and winze show the ore body to be at least 36 feet in depth and 60 feet in length, from which it is estimated 500 tons of ore of 50 ozs. grade can be mined at least. This property is one of the most promising in the district, and no doubt will develop into one of the best shippers of Alice Arm. The work done, so far, on the ledge, proves that it extends for a distance on the surface of 1100 feet. At an elevation of 1650 feet a tunnel has been driven a distance of 40 feet, showing some very fine ore. The depth obtained here is about 35 feet, and the width of the ore being over 8 feet. Some surface stripping exposes the ledge for 200 feet to the point where the lower tunnel is driven. Below this tunnel several open cuts expose the ledge to within 100 feet of the line between the North Star and the Toric Group. A short tunnel is driven on the ledge at an elevation of about 100 feet 'below the lower workings. This is the original tunnel driven by the locators of the claim, and some fairly good ore is exposed, ii. There is a compressor on the property, good camps, etc., and it is hoped that development work will be resumed at an early date. The North Star is under option to Mr. J. McAleenan and Mr. J. Zarelli. The property adjoins the Dolly Varden on the north, and the Dolly Varden workings are within 750 feet of the workings of the North Star. The ledges are of the same character and the ore exactly similar, so it is reasonable to assume that the Dolly Varden and. North Star ledges are one ledge. Since high-grade ore has been found on the Toric it would appear that a similar strike is quite possible on the North Star, as the Toric ledge can be traced across the Kitsault River, striking in line with the North Star ledge. Some surface stripping is contemplated with this end hi view.

Mr. John Conway appointed Government Agent for Anyox Mr. John Conway, who has been Acting Government Agent at Anyox for some months, has now been appointed permanent Government Agent of that town, as 'well as district registrar of deaths, births and marriages, for the Naas River division, registrar under the Marriage Act for the Naas district, and Mining Recorder for Naas. Mr. Conway is a real old-timer of the north. He was Deputy Mining Recorder in Stewart, in. 1904-5-6. He left Stewart in 1906, and was in the government offices at Port Simpson and Prince Rupert until July, 1910, when he returned to Stewart as Government Agent, and was made stipendary magistrate in the fall of the same year. On leaving Stewart, he was appointed assistant Government Agent to Mr. J. M. McMullin of Prince Rupert, and held that office until he'came to Anyox, in the fall oJ 1920. He is without doiibt the most popular Government Agent in the north, always courteous and obliging, and, johnny-on-the-spot with any information that is required by anyone, and is known by every prospector in the country as a real man. Good Leads of Ore on Roundy and Copper Creeks Mr. Gib Morley brought in some good looking specimens of steel galena ore, from the Cracker Jack Group, on Roundy Creek, this week. He states the lead is 12 feet wide, and can be traced on the surface for eight claim lengths. Several open cuts have been made on the lead showing solid ore. Mr. Morley is now doing further work on stripping the lead. Work will also be done on the Black Diamond Group at Copper Creek, on the Illiance River, where Mr. Morley and Al. Clary have a lead of ore 76 feet wide, and has been traced on the surface for four claim lengths. A tunnel has been started to strike the ore at a depth of 75 feet, and work will be continued during the coming winter. ANYOX BASEBALL The last game of the baseball league was played by the mine and smelter teams, on Monday, August 22nd, resulting in a win for the mine with a score of 10 to 3, which Continued on page 4. Anyox to Vote on the . New Wage Scale Today Today, August 27th, will decide whether the big smelter and mines of Anyox will continue to operate or not. A vote will be taken by means of a secret ballot, to see if the employees of the Granby Co. ,are willing to take a cut in wages and keep working, or whether they are in favor of rejecting a cut and thereby closing down the plant. It is a serious matter for everyone, if the cut in wages is voted against, it means that 1150 more men will be thrown on ari already over-crowded labor market, making it far worse for the men already out of employment, and aggravating the unemployment pi-oblem of the province to a large degree. Already the government and the municipalities are grappling with the unemployment problem, and devising ways and means to alleviate suffering during the coming winter. When threshing on the pra1ri'e"ceas'es next month," 'thousands of more men, will be thrown out of employment and a large percentage will find their way to the coast. \ While the wages offered by the Granby Co. are small compared with wages since .the spring of 1916, yet they are a little above the pre-war scale, and1 will provide a living for a man—and his family if he is married—this coming winter. We hold no brief for the Granby Co., but we will say this: that a man will be lucky to have a good roof over his head, and enough to eat and keep him warm this coming winter. We are, all of us, helpless to change the world wide depression, and we have therefore got to make the best of it, and probably will endure some hardships, before conditions again right themselves. The management of the Granby Company has shown wisdom in letting their employees vote on a cut, and it is entirely up to them whether the plant operates after tlie 1st. of September or not. The company has issued a new sliding wage scale, from which a few different classes of labor are extracted. When copper is under 14 ceuts per lb., as it is at present, the wages are: Miners, $4.00; Muc- kers^$3.70; Blasters,-$4.50; Tim- bermen, $4.00; All first-class metal Craftsmen, $4.75; Carpenters, $4.75 Painters, $4,25; Laborers, $3.15; Locomotive Engineers, $4.00; Bra- kemen, $3.70; Teamsters, $3.55; Electricians, $4.75. Board at the Mess House will be $1.00 per day. House Rents will be reduced 25 per cent. Store will be maintained at absolute minimum. Everything possible will be done to continue operations, but no guarantees can be given. Road and Trail Work of District Mr. George Young, road superintendent, returned last Sunday, —via the overland route—from Ayiansh, on the Naas River, where he has been inspecting the roads, trails and bridges. There are now at Ayiansh, 15 miles of trail slashed out from Grease Harbor towards Cranberry River, on the west side of the Naas, and with the expenditure of about $4,000 it could be made into a first-class wagon road. Two miles of road is slashed out from the Seax River towards Terrace, and serves" a rich agricultural country, and there are quite a few miles of other trails through different parts of the valley. The Illiance River trail is now up the-Valley 11 miles and if another 14 or 15 miles of trail were built from Bowman Lakes, it would connect with the roads and trails of Ayiansh. The roads and trails of Ayiansh are connected by paok trails with the road and trail systems of the upper Skeena River and it would be then possible if the Illiance River trail was connected with the Ayiansh trails and a suspension bridge built over the Naas River, to ride a saddle horse from Alice Arm through to Kitwancool and Hazelton, on the Skeena River. The Ayiansh valley is one of the most fertile valleys in the north. Mr. Young, while there, saw apples and tomatoes growing, and green corn ready for the table, wild cherries grow in profusion, and the valley is specially adapted to fruits of all kinds. The climate is dry in summer, and the snow-fall in winter is between 2 and 3 feet. Garter snakes abound, proving that the climate is dry. The Kitsault River trail from the Wolf Mine to Trout Creek, and from Trout Creek to Clearwater Creek, will be repaired this year. All future work this year will done on main trails. The money is appropriated for the Wharf Road Bridge, opposite the Alice Arm Hotel, and \tenders will be called for locally. Mr. A McGuire has finished the trail on the north-east fork of the Kitsault River, and arrived in town on Wednesday, with a crew of four men.

The appointment of Mr. John Conway to Government Agent at Anyox, is hailed with enthusiasm by all the citizens of the north. Mr. Conway is an old-timer in the north, going to Stewart in 1904, and he has been connected with government affairs ever since. He understands the difficulties the pioneer prospector has to contend with, and is courteous and obliging and always ready to give advice on- any matter pertaining to government affairs. The government has made a wise choice in appointing Mr. Conway, and his many friends in the north wish him the best of success in his new office. The Missing Link. The linking up of the Illiance River trail and the trail system of the Naas River at Ayiansh would place Alice Arm in an insular position. Only about 15 miles of trail is needed, and we should then be connected with the vast interior of Northern British Columbia. It would be then possible to ride from Alice Arm to practically any point in B. C. It would also be possible to get from Alice Arm to Ayiansh with supplies in one day, instead of making the journey to the mouth of the Naas River and waiting days for a boat in order to get up. It would bring a lot of traffic through Alice Arm, and it would also enable the ranchers of Ayiansh to get to Alice Arm and Anyox about a week quicker than can now be done, and it would mean' that more land would be occupied in that fertile valley. We hope to go further into the matter in a future issue. Officials of the Premier Mine Visit Property The officials who visited the Premier mine recently were: H. A. Guess, vice-president of the American Smelting and Refining Company and also a director of the Premier Gold Mining Company, accompanied by Mrs. Guess and their son; also Isaac and Mrs. Untermeyer and son, of New York. Mr. Untermeyer, who is one of the best known lawyers in the United States, is one of the owners of the Premier mine, as well as a director of that company. Dr. Riokarts of New York, was also one of the party, being interested in the Premier mine. All the party, except Mr. Guess, took motors and went through to the mine and back in time to catch the Prinee George on her return trip. THE FITCHERED HOLE A fitchered hole's the toughest thing I've tackled underground, And I've gone against some rough stuff in my wanderings around; But when it comes to meanness that will test your very soul, There's nothing that compares to a badly fitchered hole. Oh! there's different kinds of misery that makes a miner swear, It may be gas and powder smoke, or foul and dusty air; And carbide lamps that splutter out or choke and make a fuss Are little incidental things that make a miner cuss. It's bad enough to have a boss who's growling all the time, Who kicks at this and kicks at that in going around the mine, And a trammer has his troubles when a car goes off the track; He swears, but gets a bit of steel and swears, but puts 'er back A wiggletail's a beastly thing we sometimes have to run, And the wearing of a muzzle is'nt looked upon as fun.' Ohl the eating of a sweaty lunch and drinking hard boiled tea Has made a lot of miners say, "She's deep enough for me." There is'nt any pleasure in a hot and gassy raise, It burns your eyes and nose and throat, your head is in a daze. Sure there's nothing very pleasant in a wet and sloppy shaft, And a boulder blocking up the chute will drive a mucker daft. But these are only little things I mention by the way; They're things a miner overcomes so he can draw his pay. When things are going smoothly and you're getting in a round. A fitchered hole's the meanest thing you'll tackle underground. You'll fight and curse and sweat and work until you're all but in, For the fitchered hole's the meanest kind of concentrated sin. Some day you'll start for heaven, and before you reach the goal, Saint Peter's going to ask you what you called a fitchered hole. Fish Creek Mine at Hyder Looking Good Great interest has been aroused on the Salmon River, by the uncovering of a phenominal ore shoot on the Pish Creek Mining Company's property. The property is on the American side of the International Boundary and almost within rifle shot of the Premier mine. Work will be continued through the coming winter, and it is expected the property will develop into a big shipper at an early date, FOR SALE At Alice Arm. Tent, 12ft. by 16| ft. 10 on.

ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Alice Arm, Saturday, August 27th., 1921 if* THE ANYOX SKATING RINK To be, or not to be; that is the question.* Are we going to let another winter pass by, while Father Time turns over the included months to his credit and our discredit. Life is usually just what we make it, and though the immediate future does not appear to be any too encouraging, that does not give us a reason why we should not support a very necessary diversion, an excercise which has the greatest exhilarating and developing powers both to young and old. Hockey in itself is admitted everywhere the fastest and most exciting game known, and we have lived here all this time with none of 4*, none of the winter pleasure enjoyed by other places under the same climatic conditions. We have every reason in the world to become regular dispeptics. Here we live under conditions rather singular, where nature gives us practically nothing in pleasure, ■ so why not make the best of it, especially when the opportunity affords itself, which is now. It is hardly doing ourselves justice to pass this winter as we have lived them, and certainly not supporting the pioneer spirit which is noted for its sportsmanship. It is true that very earnest attempts have been made towards it in previous years, but supported only by individuals acting independently, while now we have an organisation, a delegation appointed by the people and working for them heart and soul. The months of winter idleness are a serious consideration, not only for the morality of growing children, but also for the support of personal efficiency, mental, and good human nature qualities of the older people. We need nothing more to teach us the outstanding necessity of a skating rink, and it is a foregone conclusion that we are in dire need of such a whole- some diversion. Let us make it our aiming point for this fall, and with a little unity of thought and support there is no reason in the world why the result should not be«crowned with success admitting no avenue of regret for anyone. ALP. Alice Arm School The plans for the new school, which have been made out by Mr, Al. Falconer, call for a building 24ft. by 40ft. outside measurement. Two cloak rooms, 10ft. by 10ft., will1 be provided at the rear end of the building, and a hallway 4 feet wide between them. The living quarters for the school teacher will be upstairs. The building will be V jointed inside and siding outside, and it is hoped to have it completed by October 1st. It is hoped that the building will be built by volunteer labor, and everyone will be asked to lend a hand for the good of the cause. ♦■f ♦++♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦+♦♦»+♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦■ ■ Alice Arm Freighting Co.

The smelter have been running in hard luck all through the second series, not having won a game, but Sherman and his gas eaters have turned out smiling on every occasion and played the game for all that was in it, like a bunch of good sports, and they earn the appreciation of every one of the fans for the hard struggle they have put up.

Harry passed the word around that he knew who did it and he was going to have the culprit arrested, on going to his boat the next day Harry discovered that the rope had been returned during the night, but not the benzol. Paul Stevenard says it is bad enough to go to your boat expecting to go for a run and find your benzol 'has been stolen, but the miserable shrimp left the plug out of the gas tank, thereby letting the rain pour in, after he had helped himself to Paul's gas.
