The annual report of the Granby Consolidated Mining, Smelting and Power Co. shows that tho operations of the company for the year ended December 31st. 1026 has been more favorable than for a number of years, and the financial returns show an improvement, despite the fact that the company did not receive as high an average prioe for copper as it did in 1925. Col. J. T. Crabbs; president ofthe. oompany, reports for the Directors in part as follows: "Net current assets of $2,369, 189.87 at December 1925, were increased during 1926 to $3,607,724 .61. Of this latter amount, $1,308,- 957.32 was in cash and $1,510,039- .24 in the form of finished or partially finished metals, conservatives inventoried and available for quick conversion into cash if so reqtiired. "After payment^ bond interest net earnings aggregated $1,871,- 911-19. This is equivalent to $5.41 per share of stock. outstanding at the end of the year, compared with earnings of $3.21 per share for the preceding year. Earnings for 1926 have been applied to improving current assets position, to the cost of new construction and to the retirement of $152,500 (face value) of the company's 6 per cent. First Mortgage bonds. | "At the Allenby plant no new construction occurred during the year. At Anyox, provision was made for additions to the concentrating aud sintering plants. Both of these projects have been completed and conclude major construction contemplated at this property. The Anyox concentrator now has a capacity of 2,750 tons of ore per day, and, with the additional sintering facilities provided we have become independent' of outside smelters for the treatment of concentrates, which hereafter will be smelted at Anyox, at an appreciable saving in oost. Allenby concentrates are being treated at the Trail plant of the Consolidated Mining aud Smelting Company of Canada Ltd. "Under the supervision of your management, the properties of the Allenby Copper Company, Limited (N, P. L.) have been operated throughout the year, attaining a capacity of 2,300 tons of ore per day. For a new operation, mill results were reasonably satisfactory butimprovement ispossible through better balancing of the grinding department. To accomplish this either two or three additionall ball mills will he provided. Atthemine crushing facilities will be somewhat increased and a sorting belt will be installed for removal of mine waste before shipment of ore to the mill. Other than these, no expenditures of moment are contemplated. "During the year, we have followed onr customary conservative policy in respect of development and diamond drilling and have thereby added to high-grade ore reserves 1,401,020 tons of new ore. High grade ore extracted and treated aggregated 1.720,508 tons, but by reason of new ore drilled iii net exhaustion of reserves amounted to but 319,488 tons. Diamond drilling at Bonanza added some additional ore of good grade, but no tonnage of this mine has. been carried into reserves, as the orebody has not yet been delimited. "On December 1,1926, following action taken by the shareholders, Allenby Copper Company, Limited (N. P. L.) was merged with Granby This consolidation will simplify administration and accounting, provide a more compact organiza tion and make for economy in operation. , -■ "$%evhe"first of the dufreht year, further reduction has been made in the bonded indebtedness of the company by the amount of $300,500 face value of the 6 per cent. First Mortage bonds and by the conversion' into stock of $41,200.face value of the 7 percent Debenture Bonds. At date hereof (March 21st. 1927,) outstanding 6 per cent. First Mortgage Bonds aggregate $900,400, and 7 per cent Debentures $2,428,000." Mr. Charles Bocking, Vice-president and general manager, in charge of the operations of the oompany at both the Anyox plant on Observatory Inlet and the Allenby plant near Princeton, shows some startling improvements in costs. Last year the Allenby plant operated for the full year, producing 18,001,637 pounds of copper. The Anyox output increased 627,000pounds to 38,252,614 and the two plants combined' 56,- 254.251 pounds of copper, a truly substantial result.

Empire Day was celebrated in Alice Arm quite as elaborately as on previous, oooasions, and enjoyment was provided for everyone including the tiny tots who took part in the races. The town was filled with AnyoK visitors, many of whom arrived the previous evening, while others came over on Tuesday morning. The Anyox Lodge Loyal Order of Moose were instrumental in bringing over a large number of members accompanied by their wives and lady friends. The celebrated Moose orchestra was also included in the party. The festivities commenced ou Monday evening, when a dance was held, which commenced shortly after nine and continued without an intermission.until 230 a.m. Everyone was full of good spirits and the happy holiday throng enjoyed every minute of the evening dancing to the delightful strains of the Moose Orchestra, who were tireless in their efforts to give everyone a pleasant time. The brilliant sunshine of the following morning tempted even the latest revellers from their comfortable beds and the morning was spent in exploring the beautiful scenery and greenery of the town and neighborhood. During the afternoon noes were held for the children on the Ball Grounds. Many of the contests were olose and everyone received a prize.

I repeated certain slanderous statements of and concerning Mrs. Grace Olari Mattix, of Anyox, B. 0., I, the undersigned, hereby admit that all such statements were mode by me without any j ustification or foundation and I hereby publicly apologise to her for making them. Dated at Anyox, B. O. this 22nd. day of April, A.D. 1027. R. H. HENDERSON. Although the snow is slower in disappearing this year it is gratifying to know that a speeder of the Toric Mines Co. Ltd. was able to get as far as the foot of the five per cent, grade on the Dolly Varden Railway on Thursday. The management anticipate that they will be able to penetrate as far as the end of the steel, an additional four miles, when the hauling of the mill machinery will commence. Prespector's Serious Loss A serious misfortune befell Pete Anderson during the week, when his - cabin on Clearwater Creek burned to the ground, He was engaged in driving a tunnel on the Columbia group.. He went to work as usual and when he returned the cabin and whole contents had been destroyed. He lost all his belongings including $40.00 in money and valuable papers. Pete is an aged prospector who has mined over the whole north, including the Yukon. A collection has been taken up by his friends, in an effort to alleviate his anxiety. Work Commences on Trails, Bridges and Wing Dam Work of extending the trail on the North-East fork of the Kitsault Biver and the construction of two bridges for pack horses was commenced this week, with a crew of seven men. This work is being done by the Kitsault-Eagle Silver Mines Ltd. who will be refunded hy the government for expense entailed. Alex. MoDonald is in oharge of bridge construction and road work. This work will greatly facilitate transportation to the LeRoy and Silver Cord properties, whioh are being developed by the Kitsault- Eagle Silver Mines Ltd. and it is expeoted that the work will be completed so that supplies and machinery oan be shipped iu without loss of time. Five men were put to work this week improving the trail to the Keystone mine on Roundy Creek, so that supplies to the mine can be handled more economically. The Keystone Co. intend to commence operations as soon as snow is off the ground at the mine, and the trail improved. The extension of the wing dam above the town of Alioe Arm will commence at once. The big wall will be extended at least 300 feet } ANYOX NOTES \ tJi-A-m-A- -*-*-»-* -»-*-*_. 1 T^T^ V ■ ¥ ■ ■ I ■ ¥ ■ f ■■ V ■■ 'V ■• V ^"▼^^T T You can't afford to put off ordering your new suit any longer.

E. MOSS, Editor and Publisher. Basic industries are expanding, employment is increasing and there is continued confidence in good business. Resistance to price advances is recognized as widespread and in consequence the prospect of . any- prolonged rise in the general price level is daily growing more remote, Stiff competition and stable prices certainly offer no promise of easy profits but the situation at last seems to be one in which moderate forward commitments can be made with fair assurance, a condition which has not prevailed heretofore since the world war. The spirit of artificial optimism so much in evidence a few weeks ago has been largely eliminated and the outlook today is satisfactory for all except those whose idea of good business is the promise of speculative profits. There is nothing that calls attention and draws people to a town equal to a good newspaper. In order for a man to make a good newspaper it is necessary to have the patronage of the people among whom he lives. If he has half way support it stands to reason that he must make a poorer newspaper, and in doing this every man in the town and surrounding country has to bear a portion of the loss. For this reason, if no other, the man who tries to make a good newspaper,' should have the support of his own people, all of whom reap fully as much benefit from its efforts as he does himself; Annual Report Granby Co.

At the Allenby plant, 117 acres of surface rights were purchased to provide for mill tailings disposal. "Construction.—This consisted of enlargement of Anyox mill to a capacity of 2,750 tons of ore per day and additions to sintering plant. No construction was undertaken at Allenby.
