Close Vote Makes Atlin Seat Still Very Doubtful Result of Atlin District Will be Deciding Factor Who will represent Atlin in the next parliament is still a matter of conjecture. Up to the time of going to press, all information available by the Herald indicated one of the closest contests on record. As the different polling stations were heard from on Wednesday night, T. W. Falconer was able to maintain a small lead, which was sometimes brought down to 3 or 4 as H. F. Kergin obtained a majority at some polling station. Latest returns available which include the Anyox absentee vote, give Kergin a majority of 11. It is possible that until the last vote is in the issue will be in doubt. Returns have been received from all polling stations except those in the Atlin district, and this delay is caused by a breakage in the government telegraph line. Word from these points is being anxiously awaited, and whoever wins the contest will do so by a small majority, as the Atlin vote is , expected to be fairly evenly divided. It is probable that a recount of the ballots will be taken should the margin be very close. T. W. Falconer obtained a majority of 13 at Alice Arm, 7 at Anyox Beach, 5 at Anyox Mine, and 20 at Stewart, while H. F. Kergin obtained a majority of 15 at Premier Mine, and 15 at at Telegraph Creek. Following are the returns of the polling stations heard from to date.

Advertise in the Herald Narrow Escape From Drowning What almost ended in a fatal accident occurred last Sunday, when Harold Dresser overbalanced off the launch Awake on her trip from Anyox to Alice Arm. The promptness of Marshall Smith in launching the small boat carried was instru mental in saving his life. Mine Girls Register Another Win The return ladies baseball game was played on Wednesday last between the Mine and Beach girls. The game commenced at 7 p.m. with the Anyox band in attendance. The girls from the Mine put over another win at the expense of the Beach girls, the score being 21-4. The game was followed by a dance in the Catholic Hall from 10-1, and a thoroughly enjoyable evening! was spent. J New Ore Discovery On P and G Claims A strike of ore of a good grade was made during the week on the P and G claims by Leo Paulcer and Ed. Gustaffson. Samples of ore brought down show considerable silver, and the ore body has been traced on the surface for a distance of 600 feet. It is out through by a dyke separating it into two veins, one of which is 5 ft. wide and the other 18 feet. Open outs have been driven and this work will be carried on by the owners. Samples of ore have been sent out for assaying and the outlook for developing a good tonnage of ore, which will probably increase in value as depth is obtained, is promising.

E. MOSS, Editor and Publisher. Mr. S. J. Cook of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, considers it reasonable to predict from data assembled that within ten years Canada will become the third largest producer of copper in the world, being surpassed only by the United States and Chile. Although Canada now produces only about 5 per cent, of the world's output of copper, an enormous increase in production will be possible by the development of the newer fields just now coming to the front, such as the Rouyn district in Quebec, the Frood mine area near Sudbury in Ontario, and the several copper properties in Manitoba, represented in the public mind by such names as Flin Flon, Mandy, and Sherritt-Gordon. This suggests a subject of interest to British Columbia which is one of the principal copper producers in the Dominion, having an annual yield at present of nearly 90,000,000 pounds of an estimated value of about $12,000,000. Copper, zinc and silver prices have advanced materially in recent weeks. All promise to go higher according to the opinion of the "Wall Street Journal" in a recent issue. The outlook for non-ferrous metal prices and for companies "producing copper, lead and silver, is much better than it has been for more than a year. Lead prices made their first ad vance for many weeks on May 25, and the opinion is that they will advance further in the near future. The reason for the improved outlook is said to be that producers and consumers of copper, zinc and lead have learned that a fair price is best for the industry as a whole, and despite the wide heralding by certain economists that industry goes wrong on the consumption end, the non-ferrous metal industries have learned that the price of at least such basic commodities as the metals go wrong on the production end, with the upsetting of the industry as a whole following as an inevitable result. That is why first a zinc, next a silver, and then a copper, institute were formed, and that is why in the next few weeks a lead institute will be organized. All are copied after the original Iron and Steel Institute in the light of later laws. —British Columbia Miner. Living in tlie past yields a poor living. The way to kill time is to work it to death. Copper Sales Ease Off But Price Remains High Level Consumers finally have dulled their keen demand for copper, and after nine consecutive weeks of better-thau-average business, including two or three of olose-to- record proportions, the market has been much less active. This applies to foreign more than to domestic buying- Producers are pleased with the turn of events. Their books show that they are well sold for July, and August production is provided for to some extent. At the same time the requirements of users are supplied and a period of dullness is generally expected. The higher prices of the last two months already have had the effect of speeding up production in several mining districts. Although this has not been reflected to a marked extent in the statistics, there is no doubt but that higher production schedules are in effect. In one or two instances it is reported that inability to obtain necessary miners lias interfered with plans to expand output. Some producers point out that the unusually large volume of buying in the last two months is not the result of increased current consumption by manufacturers so much as the replenishment of stocks of raw material in their warehouses that had been depleted by hand-to- mouth buying. On this ground they contend that stepping up of production should be done with circumspection. The prevailing prices have been 14.75c, Connecticut, and 14.875c. in the Middle- West. The foreign price continues at 15c. c. i. f. European ports. Concentrating Mill For Hazelton Mine Work was started this week on the construction of a 50-ton mill for the Silver Cup Mine on Nine Mile Mountain and itis being rushed as rapidly as possible. Bound timbers for tlie foundation are being secured on Nine Mile Mountain, but the other building material will come from Terrace. The machinery is said to be all provided for and will be shipped from the south as soon as the upper part of the Nine Mile road above the pole camp is in shape to take trucks over it It is now being widened. The construction of the buildings and the installation of the machinery will take all summer, but it will be ready to run early this fall. FRANK D> RICE B. C.

July :i20 1928 Deepest Mine in World Operating Over 90 Years The "Mining Journal." of London, celebrated its ninetieth anniversary last year, and it has published* eaoh week since some small item from its issue of the corresponding date ninety years ago. Ou June 2, last, it published the following: "June 2,1838.—The St. John Del Rey Mining Company. —A speoial general meeting of the shareholders of this company was held at their office on Friday, 1st. inst., in consequence of advice being received from the mines of the release of the deposit fund. The Chairman explained .... that suoh should be disposed to the following effect, viz., that £1,800 should be applied for the purpose of making an investment fund to repay the shareholders what they had advanced out of their own pockets towards working the mine; that a certain number of negroes should be purchased— as many as required; aiid that the remainder should be held in investment in Brazil, to answer any oontingen cies." Labor problems were simpler 90 years ago. If times were brisk, buy a few more negroes; if slack, sell some. The Morro Velho mine, at Minas Geraes, Brazil, whioh is owned and operated by the St. John Del Rey Mining Company, is one of the oldest and deepest, if not the oldest and deepest, active gold mine in the world, and it contains the most persistent shoot of gold-bearing quartz that ever has been exploited. The lode is vertical; at the surface the shoot pitched at an angle of 45 degrees and it held that pitch to the 17th. horizon, about 5,100- foot level, where it began to flatten, the pitch lessening and lessening as depth was gained, until, at the present bottom, 7,126 feet vertically below the outcrop, it is only 15 degrees. One thousand men from British Columbia have gone to the prairies during the last few weeks to assist in the spring farm work, it is stated by J. H. MoVety, superintendent of the government employment servioe. Ou Tuesday night of last week the Smelter and Concentrator foot ball teams played a lively game of ball, this being the first game of second half of the season. The Smelter team went down to defeat for the first time, at the hands of a more capable and faster team, the score being 2-1. Line-up was for theConoentrator: Gourlay, (goal), McConnachie.

Noranda Stock Hits a High Mark The recent spectacular market activity in Noranda is arousing great interest. In the last few weeks approximately $35,000,000 has been added to the market value of the fetook, and this is based, to some extent at least, on recent developments at the 975 level. The new orebody encountered in the shaft at this level, now believed to be the downward continuation of the II orebody, has been drifted ou for 150 ft. and is said to run approximately 15 per oent copper and $4 in gold.

There you • see beckoning markets for Canada—where fewer trade restrictions intervene, where British tradition is appreciated, where Canada is known. There we can sell. There we can also buy. Canada is buying more Empire goods than ever before—things we cannot grow or make—raw materials for our factories. Since 1922 Canada's imports from Empire countries have increased 67 per cent. Last year we bought Empire goods to the value of $250,000,000. And what is Canada selling the Empire? Last year we shipped $500,000,000 worth of our products to other British lands, an increase of 44.3 per cent, in six years. The various parts of the Empire want more Canadian goods. A demand exists among them for Canadian manufactures, or for the products of Canadian lands or waters. But we must see that our exports are maintained at a rigid standard, that they are packed as consumers desire, and that our prices are right. To encourage this growing Empire trade, eleven of Canada's twenty- four Trade Commissioners abroad, are working in Empire centres. They are familiar with the demands of the people among whom they live. Their services and the information they gather are at the command of any Canadian producer or exporter. To get into touch with Trade Commissioners, write the Commercial Intelligence Service, Department of Trade and Commerce, Ottawa. When you buy Empire goods, you do a part in making possible greater Canadian exports to these sister countries. Where we sell, we must also buy. THE DEPARTMENT OF TRADE and COMMERCE OTTAWA ED The Empire Opportunity in Manufactured Goods Of 38 groups of manufactured goods Canada sells the Empire to the total of $178,000,000.

O. BOX 1604 PRINCE RUPERT MINERAL CLAIMS the world / FROM the cold, deep waters of the seven thousand miles of British Columbia's Pacific Coast, comes a harvest of fish that the palate of all mankind enjoys! For over twenty years our Province has been a leading factor in Canada's fishing industry. Progress continues unabated...the markets to the ends of the earth demanding ever increasing quantities. The past ten years have seen this Industry grow from 14 million to 27 million dollars ..., an increase of 89%. Our annual catch totals nearly half the entire Canadian production, and "King Salmon," our marine silver mine accounts for at least 15 million dollars a year. The distribution from our Provincial hatch- e-ies of millions of salmon eggs to renew the 1 .irvest that goes into the nets; the Treaty between Canada and the United States for the protection of the Pacific Halibut (March, 1923) providing a close season from November 16th to February 15th; modernized canneries, 83 in number, and sane Federal Fishing Laws, carefully administered, are the foundation of an industry that will continue to grow. The fame of British Columbia's Whaling Fisheries is of long standing, and has materially increased the value of the products from this ' industry. The yearly catch, now about 400, is taken between one station on Vancouver Island and two stations on the Queen Char-? lotte Islands. Much as has been done to develop and conserve our fishing industry, there still remains a great deal to be accomplished. The vastness of our waters and the extent and ruggedness of our coast make organized protection and administration extremely costly. But the safeguarding of our fisheries is a matter which now commands the earnest attention of our government, who realize the importance of conserving this basic industry. As the oldest Industry of our Dominion, fishing has been one of the largest revenue producers, and it is significant that Canada's youngest Province, in less than twenty years, should secure a leading position in the world market. This aggressive search for foreign business has been an asset which undoubtedly has created one of the most amazing records of our basic industries. Well may we be proud of our Fisheries!

HUTCHINGS Proprietor Deep Mines Operated In South Africa The difficult conditions attending the conduct of mining operations at the depth reached by the Village Deep mine, on the Rand, were emphasized by the chairman at a recent meoting in Johannesburg. During 1927 the average depth at which stoping operations proceeded was 6,089 ft., or rather more than lj miles, vertically below the collar of No. 3 shaft. For the first quarter of 1928 the average depth was 6,295 ft. Development operations are now being carried on at a vertical depth of 7,200 ft., and the lowest point reached in the west sub-incline shaft is 7,300 ft. below the surface. The total value of the gold which has been produced from placer mining operations in Yukon Territory might conservatively be placed at $165,500,000, according to the Department of the Interior's latest annual report. Seldom, if ever, have prospects for a satisfactory wheat crop been more favorable at the end of June than this year, stated a general review of business conditions by the Royal Bank of Canada.
