HIGH GRADE ORE Has Been Made Near Kitsault Glacier A rich strike of high grade ore j carrying good values in gold, silver and copper, has recently been made by John Hauber and William McLean on the Lucky Strike and i Cascade Falls mineral claims. 1 The lead is 16 feet wide and has been traced on the surface the full length of two mineral claims. Open cuts have been made on the surface for a distance of about 400 feet and it is the intention of the owners to drive a tunnel 50 feet in length early next spring to crosscut the ore body at a depth of 100 feet. The property is situated two claim lengths south-west of the Homestake mine and consists of the Lucky Strike, Cascade Falls, Silver Crown and Sunyside mineral claims! Samples taken last month across a width of 16 feet averaged $140.00 in gold and silver per ton, the values being about equally divided between the two metals. The ore also runs high in bornite' and yellow copper. A sample of the ore is on view in Bruggy's Store and is well worth an inspection. A smaller vein has also been located on the Silver Crown, which is higher up the hill. This vein is about one foot wide and samples taken last year assayed 35 ozs. silver and $8,00 in gold per ton. ifhe property is owned by Win, McLean and John • Hauber and was staked by William McLean in August, 1912. They are both old residents in the district and are to be congratulated^ on their recent find. A more sysmtematic system of prospecting has been done in the vicinity of the Kitsault Glaoier since the Homestake mine has been operating and some exceptionally fine bodies, of ore have been expos- on several properties. The ore in nearly all cases in this locality carries high gold values in addition to the silver and oop*per values. The whole country is highly mineralized and there is no doubt that further big bodies of pre will be located in the near future. New Discovery of Ore at Anyox ' Mr. W, Hanna made a new dis: covery of ore on his claims joining the Hidden Creek Mine at Anyox, last week. The strike was, made on the Emma claim and is situated 1200 feet north from the showings TOBACCO GROWN IN NAAS VALLEY Was Brought To Alice Arm This Week It is a crying shame that a rich and fertile valley like the Naas should be allowed to stand idle. Gus. Webber visited Alice Arm this week, dnd brought from the Naas several bundles of native grown tobacco leaf, which compare most favorably with any grown in B. C. With soil and climate producing and ripening tomatoes, corn and fruit, what more could be desired. We are informed that the valley is absolutely free from disastrous summer frosts which visit so many of the other districts" that have been thrown open to laiyl seekers. We are asked why it remains stagnant and has not been settled up. As in so many cases the means of transportation is lacking, due to the fact that not even a trail leads into the valley from tidewater. Just think, from Alice Arm where the boats call regularly a wagon road could be built over a route eighteen miles in length and positively free from a greater than a three per cent grade. If this was costructed or even a trail slashed out, stock and_supplies could be transported in and out and there is no doubt it would only be a short time until a healthy settlement of prosperous farmers would spring up. Let us get together and persist in our endeavours to bring this matter to the attention of the government. THERE are 700 quarter sections of land of 160 acres each, making a total of 112,000 acres, laying idle in the Naas Valley. This land is all surveyed. The soil is rich and the climate is perfect. Average snowfall is from two to three feet. No summer frosts, as the valley has a low elevation. This land is laying idle for the lack a road to tidewater. Alice Arm is the nearest point on tidewater for the Naas Valley. Let us urge upon the government the necessity of a means of communication between Alice Arm and the Naas Valley, so that it will be possible to cultivate this vast and fertile tract of land, uncovered last June. The extent of the new1 discovery is not yet known, but work will be done as quickly as possible to ascertain.the extent of the ore body. Meeting of the Anyox Community League The Recreation Hall was almost filled to capacity on the evening of Sept. 23rd last, when a meeting of Community League took place. Mr. Robert Armour occupied the chair which was rather a difficult proposition owing to the fact that, with the exception of two, all the members of the Council had resigned, and as four councillors are necessary to form a quorum, someone suggested that the meeting was unconstitutional. However, it was a members' meeting and it clearly showed that no small portion of the citizens are interested in community affairs and are anxious to see the league continue. Dr. Bancroft briefly outlined the position of the company with regard to the league, and he hoped that the citizens would continue to administer community affairs, as the management had no desire to deprive the league of that privilege. It was then decided to take a vote by ballot of the members as to whether the Community League continue or turn the community and wellfare business over to the company; the vote to be taken on Wednesday, Sept. 28th, and a committee of ladies were appointed as scrutineers to handle the ballot, viz.: Miss Reader, Mrs. Bromley, Mrs. Robbins, Mrs. Barr, Mrs. Lambert and Mrs. Hollinrake, representing the beach; and Mrs. Jenkinson, Mrs. Lowrey and Mrs. McKay, representing the mine. British Columbia has 60 New Communities The new Wrigley directory of British Columbia, just published, states that sixty new communities have come into existence in the past year, bringing the total "j number up to 2209.

Try a Herald Classified Ad., Anyox in Favor of Community League Majority Votes in Favor of Present System Thevvote on icontinuation of the Anyox Community League on Wednesday, Sept. 28th last, was a decided victory for the "Keep the League alive movement." % In spite of the wet weather there were 216 members who turned out to vote. The ladies who acted as scrutineers are deserving of great praise for the efficient way they handled the ballot. Mr. John Conway, Stipendary Magistrate, acted, as umpire at the counting of the vote. The result of the three polling booths was as follows, viz.: For Against Mine -15 5 Beach Me<j»....... 79 31 Library 69 26 154 62 Majority in favor of continuing league, 92. The vote proves that the Community League is popular in Anyox and that the majority of the members have enough confidence in their ability to conduct community affairs. All movements of a public nature have their opposition, but in this case for every two votes cast against it there were five in favor of the league. It is now the duty, of the members to get busy in the selection of candidates for the council, and there should be no difficulty in getting enough level-headed, enterprising and progressive men and women in Anyox to carry on the good work. The organizing and developing of the league's activities to their present standard are the results of many hours of hard work put in by a small number of painstaking, conscientious and public: spirited citizens whose only incentive for their efforts was the desire to accomplish something which would be beneficial to the community within which they lived, and it would be a crime to allow the fruits of their endeavors to be thrown to the winds.

In response to the notices posted relative to the meeting held last Friday evening a good representative gathering convened in the office of the Alice Arm Freighting Company for the purpose of discussing matters pertaining to the operating of the skating rink this coming winter. A brief review of last year's financial statement was presented to the meeting, and in view of the fact that the year's deficit of practically $390.00 had to be paid out of the coming season's receipts, it was decided to go ahead with only the absolutely necessary improvements. These will cost in the neighborhood of possibly $200.00 and will cover the installation of a water system which will dispense with the laborious task of flooding the ice by means of the-hand pump which was used last year, and also provide for the reinforcement of the roof, which will render it capable of withstanding any exceptionally heavy falls of snow. In all, a total sum of $250.00 will have to be raised this winter from the sale of season tickets and gate receipts in order that at the eiid of the year a clear balance sheet may be shown. The matter of the best and fairest charge to be made in regard to the price of season tickets was discussed at length, and it was finally decided that the following schedule be adopted: All local people over fifteen years of age to pay $10.00 per ticket; all fifteen years and under, $5.00 per ticket; out - of - town patrons, $5.00 per ticket. It was also decided that there would be no free skating this season as was prevelant last year. Only those holding tickets or paying a regular entrance fee will be allowed on the ice. At these rates it was felt that possibly we could carry on without going into debt. As the running of the rink is purely for the purpose of offering amusement and good) wholesome exercise during the long winter months, and not a money - making proposition, everyone is urged to give their support and patronage in order that this season may surpass last year in affording everyone a good time. Patrons of the skating rink are much indebted to Mr. A. D. Hallett, who voluntarily performed a very arduous taskln the levelling of the floor of the rink. Mr. Hallett has always been one of the first to volunteer for anything of this nature, showing the true community spirit at all times. Those who assisted last year in the flooding of the rink will fully appreciate the good work Mr. Hallett has done.

The people of Anyox made it decidedly plain last Wednesday that they were in favor of the Community League system ol conducting the social affairs of the town instead of turning the work over to the company and going back to the old style of having six or seven different organizations operating, each one independent of the other and all in financial difficulties. It is now up to the citizens of Anyox to select their representatives to serve on the Council, and it is hoped that a wise choice will be made. There has not been a Council yet that has worked in harmony together and it is to be hoped that the next Council will be an improvement in that direct- Of course, nearly all of us ion. have different opinions on various subjects, but the different problems arising should and can be threshed out in a friendly spirit. We have all got to give and take a little and if any person on the Council do not get the unanimous support of his colleagues at all times, he should not lose his temper and act like a spoilt child. The Council are the representatives of the people who elected them and they are therefore their servants, and should, if it is possible carry out the wishes of the majority of the members. It has been said during the past year that there is not enough room in Anyox for two organizations, namely, the Community League and the B. P. O. Elks. The people who cultivate that opinion must be very narrow-minded and who can not see further than the tip of their nose. They should raise their heads and sweep a higher and broader vision. There is in Anyox today, room for twenty-two organizations such as the two now in existence, both are doing good work in the way of healthy sports, recreation, amusements and learning, and when you have those kind of organizations in your midst you can not get too many of them. It is up to the two organizations to work in harmony at all times; to cultivate a friendly spirit and to co-operate with each other whenever it is possible. If such a policy is carried out it will go a long way toward making Anyox the happiest mining town in British Columbia. Let us hope the next Council of the Community League will use good, sound judgement and make the League still more popular than it has been in the past Oil Boom Hits Central British Columbia The entire country from the head of Kaluni Lake to the foot of Lakelse Lake, a distance of approximately 35 miles has been staked for oil by Mr, Cameron, representing an oil syndicate, in which it is rumored British capital is interested. The syndicate which is stated to control unlimited capital, is expected to start drilling somewhere in the vicinity of Terrace in the course of a few weeks. An oil boom seems to be developing ovef the whole of central B. O. Oil claims are being staked all along the G. T. P. Railroad, and also in the district of the Francois and Burns LakeB. Gas explosions under some of the lakes have been reported, the water being blown high in the air. To Your Door!

We've waited patiently years upon years. With curses deep and with bitter shed tears, For a road into the rich valley of the Naas, But the Lord only knows when it'll come to pass. The land is the finest that can be found, From the Yukon down to Puget Sound, No summer frosts cut down our crops, And we're protected from rain by the mountain tops. A wonderful rich valley that's going to waste, Will the government please show a little haste, And have a road built at once so that we, Can carry our produce down to the sea. To Alice Arm it's only eighteen miles, And the road would'nt have to be built upon .piles. A firm road-bed can be made all the way, And a road once built would be there tovstay. God speed the day when it will come to pass, That a road will be built into the Naas, And fill up the country both good and full, With livestock and grain, but nix on the bull. A. Farmer.

Taxes Hon. John Hart, minister of finance is protecting the rights of some 550 minors and other workmen, who are employed by the Pacific Coast Coal Minos, Limited, and has secured judgements on their liens against the company, to an aggregate of $71,328.71. Under these judgements the sale of the property was some time ago authorised by the courts and is to take place on November 1st, and the very valuable Morden and Siuuiash proper- tics of the big coal company will be put up for sale to satisfy the claims of the lion holders. The company is a delinquent tax payer on its provincial taxes, and the properties mentioned wore to be put up for sale on October 12th, next. As the rights of the lein-holders might be adversely affected if the tax sale were to bo hold prior to tho sale ordered by the court, and as there is no authority for withholding any delinquent property from tax sale, Hon. Mr. Hart has instructed the collector at Nanaimo to hold tho sale on December 1st, instead of October 12th. A judgement and execution for $4500 obtained by the Workmen's Compensation Board is also protected by this postponement. Discoverer of Yukon Gold is in California George Carmack, discoverer of gold on Bonanza Creek, is now engaged in placer mining at Forest Hill, California. It was on August 17, 1896, that Carmack and a small party of Indians struck gold in what afterwards turned out to be the richest claims in the Klondyke. GEHING RICH QUICK Somebody put the following advertisement in a New York newspaper recently. GLORIOUS OPPORTUNITY TO GET RICH QUICK-INVEST NOW We're starting a cat ranch in California with 10,000 cats. Each cat will average twelve kittens a year. The cat skins will sell for 30 cents apiece. Ono hundred men can skin 5000 cats a day. We figure on a net profit of $10,000 a day. Now, what shall we feed the cat.s? We will start a rat ranch next door with 1,000,000 rats. The rats will breed twelve times faster than the cats. So we'll have four rats to feed each day to each cat, Now, what shall we feed the rats? We will feed the rats tho carcasses of the eats after they've been skinned. Now get this: We feed rats to cats and cats to rats and get the skins for nothing. The shares arc selling at five cents each, but tho price will soon go up. Invest now while opportunity knocks at your door. The above was a fake and was done with the intention of steering New Yorkers away from the wildcat oil companies, in which they have about as much chance to make money as the cat ranch. Copper Mine being Opened in Great Britain Extensive bodies of high grade cop per have been located in the Shetland Islands, which are situated north of Scotland.
