Concentrates From Toric Mine Piling Up On Wharf A daily stream of concentrates from the Toric Mine is coming down over the Dolly Varden railway at the rate of six or seven tons per day. Over one hundred tons will be brought down before a shipment is made. A quantity of lumber arrived from the south on Monday for the mine, and will be used for construction of a new bunk-house and for other purposes. Molybdenum Samples rain on Display A new bunch of ore samples from the Tidewater Molybdenum property owned by G. W. Bruggy and Wm. McFarlane were brought to town during the week to replace those sent to the Vancouver exhibition. The Molybdenum ore from this property again carried off first prize at the exhibition, and makes the fifth consecutive year it has done so. Experts have pronounced the Tidewater deposits as being the richest in the Dominion. It is the intention of the owners to develop the property as soon as possible, and/a company will probably be formed for this purpose. ANYOX NOTES Preparations Made To Entertain Visitors v All preparations are being made %y the Alice Arm branch of the British Columbia Chamber of Mines to make the visit of the members of the Vancouver Board of Trade as interesting as possible during their stay here next Sunday.

The host's health was proposed by A. C. H. Gerhardi and drank with enthusiasm. Following the repast a concert was held in which everyone took part, a number of choruses were also sung. It was one of the most delightful evenings spent by those present for a long time, and Mr. Stark, was the recipient of many congrat. ulations for his hospitality. His new home was also milch admired.

Stocks of Copper Are At Low Level Available supplies of copper are now light with the result that prices are maintaining a high level, according to the Brookmire Economic Service. It is true, it adds, that the rain of production has expanded both in the United States and abroad but there has been a further ducliite iu refined stocks lo a very low level. Moreover, further reductions in stocks in British official warehouses occurred. Consumption is receiving its largest impetus abroad rather than in America although some misgivings are felt over trade prospects in Germany.

E. MOSS, Editor and Publisher. The increase of Canada's population by immigration is a problem that has taxed the brains of Canada's leading statesmen for a great many years. At the present time the problem seems far from being solved. The latest scheme is to bring out from Great Britain many thousands of men to work as harvesters, and these will shortly arrive. While the majority may find work in the harvest fields during the next two months, what will happen to those who don't and what is going to happen to these thousands when the harvesting is finished? The prairie is an inhospitable country for an out-of- work stranger to be in during the winter months. With no money, friends, or home, or work what is he to do, except to accept charity or starve? While every good loyal Canadian wishes to see our empty spaces filled with a prosperous population we do not believe that it will be done by bringing men here in the fall of the year. If immigrants are to be encouraged they should be given encouragement during the spring, when they have a chance to make good before the winter commences. The mining boom in British Columbia shows no signs of abating, and those who are in close touch with the industry throughout the province, emphatically state ♦that a boom does not exist, but that the mining industry is still in its infancy. The reason that mining has engaged the attention of the public recently is the fact that the people of British Columbia are commencing to realize the enormous extent of the mineral wealth of the province and the fruitful field it offers as an investment. It is well known that a large number of the biggest fortunes ever made were due to mining. The men who made their money in mining were willing to take a chance on a promising property. They backed a winner and won a fortune. What has happened in the past is happening today and will continue long after we have finished admiring the high grade along the celestial highways. Mining in British Columbia is stepping right along. We now have 126 shipping mines and the number is increasing. British Columbia is now the world's third largest producer of zinc and fourth of lead. She is Canada's largest producer of copper, and follows Ontario a close second in the production of Mining News From The Stewart Camp Good Ore Reported George Copper Portland Canal News If the report which we have on pretty good authority is correct, development of George Copper property would appear to be reach ing a very interesting stage, a condition, in fact, that presages extensive development by the Consolidated Smelters, who are now doing the work. The report, which is accepted as pretty much of a fact on the streets of Stewart, is to the effect that the drills which recently started work again have cut a 50-ft. body of copper ore, and while the story gives nothing as to values, it is said to be good looking ote. If correct, this is one of the most important events to the upper Bear iu many months, as it will mean greater development and enhances the chances of a large operation in that section. High Grade at Premier The report circulated in the district to the effect that new high- grade ore has been located in the Premier Mine is probably based on the breaking of new high grade ore in the stopes as development work is carried on. According to anth- orative information received this week by the News, the report as to the breaking and shipment of new high grade is correct. Increase on This Year's Salmon Pack To date the British Columbia salmon pack is in advance of what it was last year, for the same period. The total is 324,076 cases, according to a bulletin issued a few days ago by the Dominion Fisheries Department. The corresponding total for last year was 280,319 cases. There is a decrease of sock; eye and spring salmon, but more of the cohoe. pink and chum varieties. In the north it is expected the run of humpback will be large. lver. The province of British Columbia covers a large area, and some districts naturally obtain a lead on others in development work. But every promising camp will ultimately be developed, and among them Alice Arm, which has the reputation of being one of the richest camps in the province. ir PIONEER MESS CAFE ANYOX B. C.

August 24 1928 Mining Engineer Inspects Properties D. C. McKechnie, mining engineer for the Canada Consolidated Mining' & Smelting Co. arrived in Alice Arm on Monday and left on Friday. While here he examined mining properties on the North- East Fork of the Kitsault river iii company with W. G. McMorris. During his previous visit of a few weeks ago he examined properties on McGrath mountain. Apples Flourish at Alice Arm Apple orchards in Alice Arm will be among the future attractions of this mining town nestling among the mountains at the head of the inlet, judging from the display of apples on the trees at the Alice Arm Hotel. The apples are of good color and a fair size, and last season were of an excellent eating quality. Mining Companies Want Men The prosperity of the province, especially the northern portion is shown by the shortage of labor that is now prevalent. Several mining companies are unable to ob tain sufficient help to complete their outside work before the winter sets in. During the week a telegram was received by H. F. Kergin, M. L. A. from the Premier mine requesting the services of any idle men around Alice Arm. A telegram was also received from Atlin asking for men The Granby Co. also are placing men whenever they can be secured, Apparently everyone will have a chance this year to make a stake before the winter snow hits this section of the province. Californians Take Interest In North Mining People in California are taking a greater interest in mining in British Columbia, states Mr. Forrest L. MacDonald, president of the Utility Mining & Financing Co. who recently returned from a trip to San Francisco and other California)! cities. Those in the south are becoming more acquainted with our vast mineral riches of the north, and the financing of companies who are developing a meritorious property is becoming easier than formerly. The Utility Co. is at present developing the Tiger property with outstanding success, a report of which appeared in the Herald two weeks ago. H. M.

Great Britain Still Leads As World's Creditor In a report to the Economic Committee of the League of Nations at Geneva, some remarkable figures were disclosed.
