International Football Game Won by Scotland Scotland was triumphant over England in the game played in aid of the Anyox Band on Friday evening, with a score of three goals to nil. Both sides played nice football with the edge slightly in favor of the winners, but not nearly the I extent as indicated by tho score. England started with a rush and |kept the ball in Scottish territory for the lirst live minutes of play. I Poor shooting was all that kept [them from scoring on several occasions. The Scots hit their stride, however, and it wasn't long j until VV. Hunter beat Hunter with I a shot from well out, which took J an erratic twist just when he I seemed to have it in his hands. The second goal came about five I minutes later, when Baker Robert- Ison gave Buntain a beautiful pass, jthe latter giving the goalie no I chance to save. The winning I goal came ir. the second half, olf I the boot.of Buntain again. Evans was the referee. During fthe fracas, and between showers, 1 the brass band delighted the spec- I tators with numerous selections.

Log Carrier Drumrock Has Interesting Career The log carrying barge Drumrock owned by the Hecate Straits Towing Co. Ltd. arrived in Alice Arm on Saturday night, June 19, in tow of their tug "Lome" to load logs, for the Powell River Co. and sailed at 7 p.m. on Saturday last with a cargo, of approximately 900,000 feet. The tug Lome took Captain Mowatt to Vancouver for medical treatment while the barge was loading, he having sustained injuries to his right leg while at sea. The barge Bingamon was brought north on the Lome's return trip and is now loading logs for Powell River, and will be followed by the Drumrook as soon as her present cargo is discharged, Mr. P. M. Ray, manager of the Prince Rupert Branch of Hecate Straits Towing Co. and one of the owners of the "Drumrook" was in town superintending the loading of the barges. The "Drumrock" was originally a British four masted ship of this name, built by Ramage and Fer- gusson Leith, Scotland and holding a speed record as a "wind jammer" during her days. She was later sold to other British owners and renamed "Persimmon," afterwards being sold to the Germans who used her in the nitrate trade iu South America and named her "Helwig Vinneii." She was interned at Santa Rosario during the war and was bought by her present owners from San Francisco interests, who had bought various interned vessels, and was equipped as one of the first log carrying barges on this coast.

Orr and Gordon hooked up in a pitching duel, with the former having the edge all the way. Orr was in splendid form, whiffing thirteen and allowing one lone bingle. Gordon fanned five and was nicked for two safeties. A sensational stop by Benny Wendel cut off a sure run in the fifth rame. The winning marker came in the last inning when Harris reached first on a scratch hit, went to second on a sacrifice, to third on an infield error, and scored on a fielder's choice.

Mining Men Amazed at Vast Mineral Wealth The outlook for the mining industry at Alice Arm was never brighter than at the present time. Several properties are already operating, and excellent results have been attained. It is certain that several more will be operating within the next few weeks. A substantial number of influential mining engineers, some of whom represent well known names in mining circles have recently visited the camp. They all speak highly of the phenomenal big ore showings on the surface, and the rich values of the LaRose and the tremendous ore body of the Torio thoroughly convinced them that the the camp has a future. All were surprised at the lack of publicity the camp had received on the outside, with such tremendous potential wealth lying dormant. A publicity campaign has been instituted by the local branch of the B. C. Chamber of Mines and it is expected that this defect will shortly be remedied,' and at least one step taken towards a permanent publicity campaign. F. L. Housley left on Tuesday for Anyox, after spending several days at Alice Arm inspecting the timber of the Granby Co. with a view of logging it. It is probable that he will log off the holdings of the Granby Co. aud if such a course is decided on, operations will commence this summer. G. W. Bruggy, accompanied by his daughter, Kathleen, is leaving today for Stewart, on a business trip in connection with the Marmot Metals Mining Co. in which he is interested.

MOSS, Editor and Publisher. The following article is a review of the copper production of the world, published in the editorial oolumns of the Engineering and Mining Journal Press. "Copper production in the world is increasing—slowly it is true, but none the less steadily. During 1925 more copper was mined than in any other year, not excepting the war period; and the rate of production in April, just passed, established a new high record for all time. Thanks to unprecedented consump- sion by American industry, no large stocks are accumulating; and yet many students of the situation are convinced that if the aggregate production were only a little less than the actual current rate, something like one cent per pound more could be realized on the metal. They argue that profits to any individual company would be greater if it netted 5c. per pound on 900,000 pounds instead of 4c. per pound on 1,000,000 pounds. They contend also that there would be no material difference in the world consumption if copper sold at 14fc. instead of 13jc. per pound. So far as mathematics is concerned this argument admits of no controversy, As to the effect on consumption, there would be a theoretical tendency to restrict it, but this probably would be serious, "It is significant that almost without exception the more important companies could produce at a rate 20 per cent or more above their current output. They are not ready to start an era of ruthless competition and preoipitate an economic struggle that could only result in putting some of them out of business and inflicting serious injury to all. The big fellows recognize the fact that from a purely selfish standpoint restriction of out put is necessary. Why it is reasonable to ask, if the large producers as individuals limit their output to sustain a 13fo. market, do they not go a step farther and try, at least, to get 14fc, To put this theory to the test it would only have been necessary for the leading companies to have continued output approximately at the rate of 1924. A number of them followed this policy to the letter; others increased their output in 1925 by from 10 to 20 per cent. "The situation is precarious, and will continue to be so long as there exists equipped capacity to mine, mill, and smelt 20 per cent more copper than the world needs. Fortunately this situation is being corrected rapidly by the increase in consumption. One immediate remedy would be artificial limitation of production by "gentleman's" agreement. That of course would be illegal, aud is not to be considered. "To the companies that have maintained uniform or nearly uniform production rates credit is due. It is likely that they have felt that this policy would in the long run make more money than any other for their individual shareholders; and yet their action has helped sustain the market and they have thereby done a service to the industry as a whole. Generally speaking, moreover, they are among those who could survive successfully a "war" of copper producers. Without attributing to the men who direct these companies too much of altruism, it is fair play to say that they have done much to bring about the recovery of an industry that was woefully ill only four years- ago. Even yet the recovery is not complete. Another year, or perhaps more, of level-headed nursing on the part of producers is needed." H. M.

Friday. July 2, 1926 Startling Gold Values at B. C. Silver Mine Portland Canal News Last week the News reported a rumor to the effect that a new strike had recently been made on the B. C. Silver. In the light of authentic information this is not entirely correct, though from the standpoint of some sensational gold values in spots, it might be said to to be a strike. It appears that a 50-foot winze was sunk in one of the ore bodies at the north end of the main level. From the bottom of the winze, the ore which has a width of 25 feet was crosscut, allowing the whole to be of good commercial grade with a shoot of high-grade. In the course of this . work tho ore was continually sampled, and some of the samples ran us high as 167 oz. gold or $3340 per ton, with satisfactory silver values. However, these phenomena) gold values do not appear to he persistent, but to | occur in pockets, though the whole body carries good gold and silver values. Ore extracted in the course | of this development is being sacked and shipped. . The management of B. C. Silver I have had a very difficult geological problem to work out and the greatest credit is due both C. A. Banks and Major C. B. North for the efficient and determined manner in which they have tackled what many others would long ago have [ given up. A great deal of credit is also due the English shareholders for having stuck to their task of putting up the development money in the way that they have, and the reward that now appears to be at hand will be well earned. It is expected that 15,000 tons of concentrates will be shipped by the Consolidated M. & S. Co., Trail, via New Westminster, to Antwerp during this season. Subscribe to the Herald Sullivan Mine is the World's Biggest Metal Mine A semi-annual dividend of $1,- 701,295 was declared June 16 by the Consolidated Mining & Smelting Company of Canada, payable July 15, to shareholders of record June 30th. The dividend is composed of a regular 3 per cent disbursement amounting to $389,259 and a bonus of $3 a share amounting to 11,521,036. This is the second large dividend paid by the Consolidated Company since its Sullivan Mine was gotten into operation on a large scale. The lirst was an annual dividend paid December 15 lust, which consisted of the regular 3 per cent dividend with a bonus of $5 a share on the 507,012 shares outstanding. The first semi-annual dividend for 1926 is therefore at an increased rate of bonus distribution. Payment of this dividend will bring the total disbursed by the company to date to $13,512,019. Earnings of the Consolidated Mining & Smelting Company are mainly derived from its great Sullivan Mine at Kimberly, B. C. That property during 1925 and so far this year has produced more lead than the state of Idaho, more zinc than the state of Montana and more silver than the state of Nevada. It is recognized as the world's greatest underground metal mine. Production of late has exceeded 3000 tons of ore a day. Its mill at Kimberly has a present capacity of 3000 tons daily, with an addition to the plant of 1000 tons daily- capacity nearly ready to go into operation. Premier Mining Co. Pays Another Huge Dividend The Premier Gold Mining Co. has declared another quarterly dividend of $400,000. payable on July 3 to shareholders of record on June 18. This will bring the total dividends up to $8,988,000.
