Dr.  Mandy  Tells  Of
Progress Alice Arm
And Stewart
Seven of the world's largest,
most stable and successful operating mining companies are hammering away for all they are worth at
the mineral resources of Northwestern -Mineral Survey District,
an area of 125.000 square miles
embracing the Skeena, Queen
Charlotte, Naas River, Portland
Canal, Stikine-Liard and Atlin
Mining Divisions. Joseph T. Mandy, resident government engineer
for this territory, drew a striking
contrast between conditions only
two years ago and today in connection with mining development
in a recant address before the C. I.
M. M. in Vancouver. Two years
ago only two major companies
were active in the district.
Dr. Mandy declared that the persistence and adventure of the seven
stable mining corporations now operating in the north is of unlimited
benefit to the mining industry.
The public should understand,
however, that just because these
companies are big, every prospect
touched by them will not necessarily make a mine, pointed out Dr.
Mandy.
"The business of mining is never
so kind, the lady is not so easily
wooed and won. Sometimes the
chances are long and slim," he said.
"These self-sustaining corporations
can, however, afford to take these
chances without, inflicting loss and
grief on individuals.
"And so there has been du- -*-ifr
1929 an influx of the cream .
mining brains, energy and capital
of the continent into District No.l,"
said Dr. Mandy.
The seven large operating companies he had reference to were:
American Smelting and Refining
Co., Granby Consolidated Mining
Smelting & Power Co., Consolidat-
Mining & Smelting Co. of Canada,
Britannia Mining & Smelting Co.,
United Eastern Mining Co., Alaska
Juneau Gold Mining Co., Mining
Corporation of Canada.
"We must, also not forget tlie adventurous efforts of many small
syndicates and companies conducting commendable initial exploration
that in many cases has attracted
the attention and resources of the
large operating companies for final
development," continued Dr.
Mandy. "They are to be found
wherever there is a mineral showing of any importance, conducting
pioneer exploratory work of constructive benefit to the industry.

Kiddies Greatly Enjoy
Elks' Christmas Tree
The annual Christmas Tree and
entertainment of Anyox Lodge No.
47, B. P. 0. Elks was held at the
Elks' Hall on Saturday evening.
All the juvenile Elks were on hand
with the exception of the mine,
where a Christmas Tree was being
givon by the Mine Club.
A large Christmas Tree adorned
one corner of the hall, and underneath was piled the huge display
of presents. On the appearance of
Santa Claus, the children were
lined up and kind Santa presented
each one with a Christmas gift.
Games were played during the
evening. Refreshments were provided in the Dugout, and the
kiddies did full justice t3 all the
good tilings to eat. Stockings
filled with apples, oranges, nuts
and candies were presented to each
child. The young Elks of Alice
Arm attended the Christmas Tree
in full force.
Alice Arm Children Attend
Christmas Tree
Owing to the fact that Alice
Arm did not entertain the juveniles this year with a Christmas
Tree, all the young Elks, aocompanied by their mothers, journeyed
to Anyox on Saturday in order to
attend the Elks Christmas tree.
Despite the late hour of returning
home, all the kiddies thoroughly
enjoyed the outing.
Several important Anyox news
items failed to reach the Herald
offioe this week. They will, however be oarried in our next week's
issue.
Coming Year Will Be
Prosperous For
District
Before the next issue of the
Herald is off the press we shall
have entered upon another year.
The past year has been a prosperous one for this district, and the
coming year promises to be equally
prosperous and will probably
exceed 1929.
The big plant of the Granby
Consolidated Mining Smelting &
Power Co. has been run uninterruptedly throughout the year. A
record production of copper has
been made. The price of copper
has been maintained far above the
average, and the close of 1929
finds the Granby Co. in a strong
financial position. Due to the high
price of copper, wages have been
higher than in previous years, and
everyone in Anyox has been more
prosperous during 1929 than has
been the case for a long time. The
trend of the copper market indicates that 1930 will be equally
prosperous both for the Granby
Co. and their employees.
During the present year, the
Britannia Mining & Smelting Co.
have entered this district. They
are slowly consolidating their
position, in developing properties
in the upper Kitsault country. All
reports of their operations indicate
that so far, success has rewarded
their efforts. Two of the largest
and most successful mining companies of British Columbia are now
operating in this district, and it is
probable that 1930 will see the influx of other mining companies,
both large and small.
The coming year will see an extension of the operations of the
Britannia Co. It will also witness
the transformation of Alice Arm
into a beautiful well laid out town,
now that the Indian Reserve question has been settled. A commencement of construction of au
auto road, which will ultimately
connect Alice Arm with Hazelton
is almost certain to be undertaken.
Following a period of dormancy,
Alice Arm is on the eve of big developments, and 1930 will witness
the commencement of an indefinite
period of prosperity.
Community League Christmas
Tree Today
The Community League's annual
Christmas treat for Children will
begin this afternoon at two o'clock
with a free matinee of The Iron
Mask. Adults may come at the usual charge. After the show the
children will be entertained at the
gymnasium by arrangements made
by the Council of the League with
the co-operation of the Granby
Company.
Start the New Year right by buying a box of El Doro cigars. The
best made.
Shipment Silver Crest
Ore Gives Good
Values
The shipment of ore recently
made from the Saddle property at
Hastings Arm by the Silver Crest
Mining Co. gave returns of $56.20
per ton. The values consisted
chiefly of 28.60 ozs. silver and 54.1
per cent, lead, with small gold and
copper content.
The trial shipment has demonstrated that a good profit may be
made on ore of this grade. Freight
and smelting charges were about
$8 per ton. Cost of mining and
conveying over the company tramway was less than $5 per ton.
Now that success has been
obtained in shipping ore, large
shipments may be looked for next
summer. The company will be in
a much better position to handle
large shipments of ore as the tunnel
now being driven will be completed
by next summer. The ore will
then be able to be stoped out, and
mining costs should even be lower
than the above.
Everyone Spent  Most
Enjoyable Christmas
The Christmas festivities passed
off without any untoward incident
at Alice Arm and Anyox during
the week. Everyone celebrated
the day in the time honored fashion
of eating and drinking and making
merry.
Many house parties were held in
both towns and everyone enjoyed
a real Christmas dinner, and the
joyous time that usually follows
the big repast of the year.
All the stores reported a big rush
of last minute business, including
the Anyox Liquor Store, which
was called upon to cater for both
towns.
The weather on Christmas Day
was fine, although heavy rain fell
the day previous and also the following day.

Oriental Immigration Is
Small To B. C.
Oriental immigration into British Columbia in the last year of
record, 1928, totalled 537, exactly
the same number as in the previous
year, according to figures compiled
by the provincial bureau of information. These figures show that
Chinese immigration here has decreased almost to vanishing point,
only three Chinese having entered
in 1928. In the same period Japanese immigration totalled 478, as
against 475 in the previous year.
Fifty-six Indians came into the
province, as against 60 in 1927. ^
Since 1901 Oriental immigration
into the province totalled 90,486.
According to birth registrations,
the Chinese population showed a
net decrease last year. There were
182 births and 216 deaths.
Excursion   Fares   Canadian

Glue From   Prince   Rupert
Fish Heads
Investigations made by L. F.
Smith, of the Pacific Experimental
Station of the Biological Board at
Prince Rupert, B. C, have shown
that a satisfactory glue can be made
from fish heads. While glue has
been made from fish waste on the
Atlantic Coast for some time it was
apparently previously believed that
the fish waste available on the Pacific Coast was not so suitable for
use in this way.
Naturalization Married
Women
Canada is playing a laggard's
role in regard to the international
thought on the subject of the
nationalization of married women,
Mrs. M" ,R, Lang pointed out at the
annual convention of the United
Farm Women of Ontario. A
"woman without a country" was
literally true of the Canadian
woman married to an American
citizen living in the United States,
she said.
By Canadian law she accepts on
marriage the nationality of her
husband aud by American law she
did not become a citizen of that
country until she took the oath of
allegienoe. Canada was falling
down on this job of international1!''
legislation as judged by current
thought on the subject, Mrs.
Lang believed. All through the
British Empire no woman had the
right to retain her nationality
unless she was divorced or a widow.
On the other hand, in the United
States, the married woman could
keep her nationality after
marriage.
Canada Ranks Fifth Copper
Output
Copper output in Canada in October amounted to 7268 tons, or
14,536,000 pounds, according to
American Bureau of Metal statistics,
which represents an increase over
September, when 6949 tons were
produced.
For the period January to October, Canada's output was 64,619
tons, or 129,238,000 pounds. In
both the shorter and longer periods
Canada ranked fifth among the
countries, according to the bureau,
United States ranking first, Chile
and Peru, combined, second, Belgian Congo third, and Japan fourth.

In its five years of operation as
a subsidiary of Ihe department of
colonization and development, Canadian Pacific Railway, tlie Canada
Colonization Association lias placed 4,225 families on 836,000 acres
of land in western Canada, Colonel
J. S, Dennis, president of the association, submitted to its directors
at Winnipeg recently. The association has at present opportunities to settle' 1,507 families on 332,-
59G acres in the prairie provinces.
Cash prizes exceeding $200,000
will bo offered at tho World's
Grain Exhibition and Conference
to be held at Retina, August 1-13,
1932. The major prizes totalling
$70,000 will be for wheat. It is
aimed to have field tests to verify
the purity of the grain and also to
have milling and chemical tests to
establish quality.
British Columbia canned salmon
are exported to upwards of thirty
different countries. In 1928 the
marketed value of the canned salmon put up in the province was
considerably more than $13,000,-
000.
So impressed was Hon. R. B.
Bennett with the achievements of
Consolidated M. & S. Company at
Trail, that he stated he would, place
S. G. Baylock, general manager,
among the first ten great Canadians.
Nearly 44,000 cases of canned
clams and quahaugs were packed
in Canada last year. The largest
production was in New Brunswick
—23,048 cases. British Columbia's
output was 15,280 cases. In Nova
Scotia 4,309 cases were canned and
in Prince Edward Island 447.
We Wish our many friends of Alice

Canadians Do Not  Realize
Importance of Mining
Few people realize the great
value of mineral production in
Canada. One hears much of the
importance to the country of manufactures, hut they will hear more
in the next'few years of the greatness of mineral production. Total
production in 1928 in Canada of
gold, silver, copper, nickel, lead
and zinc amounted to over $128,-
000,000, or live million dollars less
than the production value of the
automobile industry of Canada.
Taken in another way, this production exceeded by one million
dollars the combined production
of the sugar refining industry and
bread and baking products from
eight sugar refineries and 2,214
baking establishments.
Canadian Highways Become
Important
The highways in Canada are
becoming increasingly important
year by year in the economic
structure of the country. Over
them is carried a very heavy
traffic, both passenger and frieght,
especially between the large cities
and towns. At the end of 1928
the total mileage of surfaced roads
in Canada was 64,121.
Members of the Vancouver Stock
Exchange have started a case to
test the validity of the Dominion
stock taxation act, under which fed-
L eiialjiuthorities impose a graduated
system of taxation upon share
transfers.

The last three weeks have set a
record for quiet business in copper,
domestic demand averaging only
about a couple hundred tons a day.
Nevertheless, prices are as firm as
ever, and it is even said that less
copper is now available from second-hands at price concessions than
there was a week or two ago.
What little demand existed has
been for prompt shipment. It is
generally believed that the copper
bought three months ago and later
will be sufficient to carry consumers
pretty well through to the end of
the year at the reduced rate of operation that many of them have recently adopted.—Engineering and
Mining Journal.
Sheri itt Gordon properties located at Cold Lake, Manitoba, cover 8
miles on strike of ore zones.
Sherritt Gordon is to be ready to
go into active production at the
rate of 1500 tons a dav late in 1930.
A single fact will often spoil an
interesting argument.

Steamship Cardena Now
In Drydock
Rather extensive damage was
done to the hull of the Union
steamer Cardena, as a result of her
stranding on Village Island, near
Balmoral Cannery, in the Skeena
River last week. This is shown
by an examination of the vessel
which arrived safely at Prince
Rupert under her own steam
shortly after 1 o'clock on Mondayi
and was immediately taken up on
the pontoons of the local drydock.
Fourteen or fifteen feet of the
lower part of the stem was crumbled and will require replacement.
At two or three places her bottom
was opened up when plates were
buckled and rivets torn out as a
result of her contact with the shore.
This will necessitate replacement
of several plates. One fuel tank
forward was also broken and from
this oil issued into tlie forward
hold. The vessel was also taking
water freely through the punctures
in the hull.
Since her arrival an inspection
of the Cardena was made by Capt.
J. R. Eltert, port warden. It will
be necessary for at least temporary
repairs to be made to the vessel
before she leaves Priuce Rupert.
This will necessitate the ship remaining on tlie local dock until the
end of this week.
Water and oil is being drained
from the holds of the vessel at the
dry dock preparatory to commencing temporary repair work.
Several of the officers and crew
of the Cardena, sailed on the Catala on Tuesday for Vanoouver on
receiving instructions from the
company's head .office to proceed
south.
Conductor—"Madam, that child
looks older than three years."
Mother—"Yes, indeed he does,
conductor. That child has had a
lot of trouble."

Canadian   Exports   Increase
Nickel exports from Canada during the first ten months of 1929
imounted to 92,221,800 lb., valued
it $21,550.000. This is an increase
of 12,400,000 lb. and $3,867,000 in
value over the corresponding period
last year. The increase in value
relative to the quantity is explained
by the gradual extension of the
nickel refining facilities at Port
Colborne.
One reason why part of the world
is sane is that they can't afford to
be anything else.
