Alioe Arm is the natural outlet for that I fertile valley, following the Illiance [ River pack trail for 11 miles and I then dropping down into the Naas | Valley the distance would be only thirty miles. The distance-" from the Ayiansh Valley to the mouth of the Naas River is sixty miles, and the road would terminate on an Indian' Reserve, and only a weekly boat service is available, The distance to Terrace is seventy , miles and there would be an additional haul of over ninty miles on the railroad in. order to get the produce to Prince Rupert and over another 100 miles in order to get it to Anyox or Alice Arm. If the road terminates at Alice Arm the distance would be only about 30 miles, four times per week boats !■■ ave Alice for' Anyox and Prince [ Rnpert. Anyox is the natural market for the Ayiansh Valley and will take all the dairy produce, fruit, vegetables and live stock Ayiansh can produce for a long: ; time to come. Everyone in the district is heartily in favor of building the road It will open up for cultivation one of the richest and most fertile valleys in the province. It will divert a stream of traffic through Alice Arm and give us connection with the interior and will allow the land hungry population of this province to settle on and cultivate 160 acres of land, knowing that they have a market for their produce. There are scores of men in Alice Arm and : Anyox with wifes and families who would settle in the Naas Valley if they only had the means of transporting their produce out. It is^up to the citizens of this district, especially Alice Arm, to do all in their power to hav6 a road built into the Naas Valley as soon as possible, A public meeting should be called early in the future so that everyone's opinion regarding the road can be heard. The matter can tlien be taken up with the local member of the Legislature, Mr. H. F. Kergin, and there js not the slightest doubt that armed with all the facts of the case and by pointing out to the government the immense advantages to be derived from building the road, that the road will be built next summer. Another strike of high-grade ore has been made at the Bellevue mine the early part of this week. The ore is a high-grade steel galena and the lead is from 1 to 3 feet in width. It is a new strike and is on the west side of the river, 100 fe|t above the river level, and is on the Blenheim claim. The lead has been traced on the surface for a distance, of 300 feet and 5 crosscuts have already been made on the surface. Mr. A. J. Hughes, who is in charge of operations brought samples of ore from this strike to town, on Thursday, and it is some of the finest ore that has ever come from the Illiance River district. He also brought down samples of copper and galena ore from the Glaoier View, which was taken from a lead 25 feet wide, also samples of copper glance and brittle silver ore from the Glaoier View. The Anglican Church was the scene of a quiet wedding on September 6th, Tuesday afternoon at 1 o'clook, when Miss Minnie Dorothy Gerrard and Mr. Arthur Wray McTaggart were united in marriage by the Rev. J. B. Gibson. The bride looked very charming in a suit of navy . blue tricotine with a becoming blue and white REDUCTION IN THE WORKING STAFF AT ANYOX satin book. hat,, and carried a prayer After the service the guests repaired to the home of the bride's parents, Mr. & Mrs. A. A. Gerard, where refreshments were served. The church and home were prettily decorated with flowers, ferns and maple leaves. The happy couple left on the Awake at three o'clock for Silver City, where they will spend a few weeks.

Starved and Then Beaten to Death At Alice Arm and Anyox Baseball Game "Man's Inhumanity to Man" was vividly demonstrated last Sunday, when the Alice Arm Baseball nine endeavoured to wrest the honors from the Anyox aspirants to the northern B. C. Championship. At the end of the seventh innings which was to conclude the contest, the score stood 7 to 7„ but as the Anyox players insisted upon continuing, the visitors acceded to their demands and took the field, although weak and famished from hunger. No mercy was shown them either by the umpires or the goddess of luck, and the local boys added five more counters to their string and finished the game with a final score of 12 to 7 in favor of Anyox. On the way home the visitors feebly but earnestly sang that old familiar little ditty, called: "Come after Breakfast, bring your Lunch and go before Dinner-time." Since the reduction of wages at Anyox, oh September 1st,, 200 men have been laid off. The Che- loshin left on Monday loaded to capacity. The Prince Rupert went out with 100 on board, last Thursday. Wages have been cut all round, some of the superintendents getting their salaries cut as much as 50 per cent. Mining Engineers to Examine the Dolly Varden & Wolf Mines Mr. H. Townsend, who examined the Dolly Varden Mine two weeks ago, arrived in town on Thursday, accompanied by Mr. Billingsley,' mining engineer for the Anaconda Copper Co., Butte, Montana. They will inspect the Dolly Varden and Wolf Mines and probably other properties on the upper Kitsault; GAME LAWS TO BE ENFORCED Owners of rifles and Shotguns under the Criminal Code, must obtain a permit from the provincial constable, This permit does not entitle the owner to hunt birds or game. For this, a hunting licence must be taken out. The season for birds opened on September 3rd. for this district. Holders of Miners Licence's are not allowed to shoot game except for food when actually engaged in prospecting. Instructions have been issued to all constables and game wardens to enforce the law. NEW BUILDINGS FOR ALICE ARM The new school is already beginning to take shape. The walls are up and the rafters «,re on, and it will when finished be a great improvement over the old school. It is being built by volunteer labor and the boys at work are to be commended for the splendid showing already made. ■— > -.. . News has been received from Vancouver, that Mr. John Pinder- Moss, A.E.I.C., etc., the newly appointed organizer of night schools and Technical Education for Anyox has been confined to his bed with influenza, but is expected to leave on Thursday to take up his new duties. , Mr. Pinder-Moss has had a wide experience in structural engineering, having designed and superintended the construction of three model towns to accomodate 9000 to 11,000 population, besides several sewage disposal, water and other works of a municipal nature. Success has also attended him as a teacher. Appointed to the faculty of the Technical High School, Edmonton, Alta. as head of the Architectural Engineering Department when that institution was inaugurated some eighty years, ago, he held that position until quite recently. Commencing with twelve boys and girls, this school now handles several thousand students per week and held the record for many years of being the premier school in Canada in Structural Engineering.

If the government can find the money to finish the P. G. E. Railroad and build miles of auto roads in the southern part of the province, it can find a few . thousand dollars in order to build a road to open tip one of the richest agricultural valleys in the province. The Hon. John Oliver in an address last month in Vancouver, said: "That 80 per cent of the population of British Columbia was living in 1 per cent of its area. The reason for unemployment was that there were too many mechanics, carpenters and laborers to do the work that had to be done. There was no opportunity for them to earn a livelihood in the city whereas there were millions, of acres of laud in the country waiting for their skill and labor to be made productive. From thirty to forty millions of dollars worth of foodstuff's was being brought into the province from outside which could be produced at home. In cheese alone the B. C. production was not 10 percent of the amount consumed in the province." What the Premier said is no doubt absolutely true, but what is the use to put men on the land when there are no means of transportation. Farming can not be done with a pack saddle or a pack horse, and until the government builds the necessary roads, the land will be idle. There has been seventy quarter sections of land filed on in the Ayiansh district, and today there are only 14 or 15 living there, the remainder were starved out after waiting years for a road of some sort, to enable them to get their produce out after it was grown. If anyone cares to stand on the wharf at Anyox when the Vancouver boats are unloading, they will see sacks of potatoes, onions, carrots, and all kinds of vegetables being unloaded, also cases of eggs, quarters of beef, etc. and tons of other things that could be produced at their door. Nearly all of this produce is grown in southern B. C. and the remainder is grown in the U. S. A. This stuff has had in lots of cases a long railroad journey to the coast, has been handled and trucked half a dozen times before being landed in Anyox and has passed through several hands, each getting a profit from it. In fact, we go nearly a thousand miles and sometimes more to get supplies that could be grown within less than 50 miles of Anyox if a road was built by the government to enable the produce to be brought out. People of Anyox and Alice Arm, boost for a road to Ayiansh and let's make the north more self-supporting. Ptarmigan Mine on Vancouver Island, Bonded The Ptarmigan copper mine on the west coast of Vancouver Island, which came into prominence in 1912, when the Earl of Denby bought it arid started work on a large scale, bringing out a large number of English miners, has been bonded for three months. It is believed that the option has been taken by the Consolidated Smelting and Mining Co., which has been busy lately picking up copper properties in other parts of the province. The Ptarmigan is at Big Interior mountain, at the head of the Bead- well River, and is reached through Clayoquot. It joins the Big Interior property which is on the eastern slope looking down to Central Lake, and which has been bonded by the Consolidated. Engineers from this corn, pany were on the ground during 1919 and 1920. The Big Interior was locat ed by Joe Drinkwater in 1899 and examinations are said to have proved it to be a surprising satisfactory property. Just before the war, the Earl of Denby bought the aerial tramway from the Tyee Company. When war broke out, however, all the Englishmen threw down their tools at once, deserted the mine and went to the front. The property was left deserted. Why the Editor left Town Somebody sent .the Editor of the Silv(j£ City Star, a short time ago, a few bottles of the famous A. A. home brew.' The same day he received for publication a wedding announcement, and a notice of an ..auction sale from Ayiansh. Here are the results: "Win. Smith andMiss Lucy Swift were disposed of at public auction, at my farm, one mile east of a beautiful cluster of roses on her breast and two white calves, before a background of farm implements, too numerous to mention, in the presence of about seventy guests, including two milch cows, three sows, and one bobsled. Rev. Jackson tied the nupital knot with 300 feet of hay rope, and the bridal couple left on one good John Dete gang plow, for an extended trip with terms to suit purchasers. They will be at home to their friends with one good baby buggy and a few kitchen utensils after ten months from date of sale to l-esponsible parties and some fifty chickens."

Anyox Community League Council Meet every Friday evening al 7 p.m. Last Friday in the month Meeting held al Mine Other Meetings held at Recreation Hall, Beach Pacific Coast Coal Co. Fined $500 The Pacific Coast Coal Company, of Vancouver Island has been fined the sum of $500 for non-payment of wages in fortnightly periods, as prescribed bylaw. Out of 300 claims tor wages Mr. A. Leighton for the crown, chose twenty for trial, and after hearing evidence in three, it was agreed that the balance should abide by the judgement rendered in these. Mr. E. B, Ross, of Vancouver, acted for the defence and called Mr. Muir, secretary of the company, to the witness stand. After giving his evidence, it was brought out, in cross- examination, that at the time the company suspended operations about January 20 last, there was $19,000 worth of coal on hand. This coal was subsequently sold, and the money used to pay the salaries of the officials of the company and an overdraft at the bank. It was intimated that an appeal will, be taken, after the magistrate had imposed a fine of $25 in each of the twenty cases brought to trial. See AL. FALCONER Alice Arm FOR Transfer.

Comprising 58,000 Square Miles The Atlin Constituency is the largest in British Columbia. It consists of 58,000 square miles, and comprises about one fifth of the total area of the province. Its most southerly point is at the entrance of the Portland Canal, about 25 miles south of the mouth of the Naas River, and it stretches northward to the borders of the Yukon. The 60th. parallel being the northern boundary and the furtherest south being about 25 miles south of the 55th. parallel. Mr. H. F. Kergin the local member of the legislature is now on a tour of this vast territory. He left Anyox'last Saturday and caught the S. S. Prince George in the early hours of Sunday morning at the month of the Naas River, on her way to Stewart. Returning on the same boat to Prince Rupert, lie caught the C. P. R. boat going to Skagway, going in from there over the White Pass and Yukon Railway to Carcross, and then by boat, south to the towns of Atlin, Discovery, and numerous other settlements, and from there on horseback to Rainy Hollow. After visiting the northernmost points he intends to go up the Stikine River by way of Wrangel, to Telegraph Creek and the Dease Lake country, which will be done partly by canoe and partly by horseback. All the settlements on the different routes will be visited, to allow the pioneer residents of the northland to get acquainted with their new member, and put before him their needs for the improvement of the country. That Bert will be assured a royal welcome is a foregone conclusion, as the pioneers of the north are experts in that line. The Atlin constituency is the hardest one in the whole of British Columbia to cover and when it is seen that no proyision is made by the govern ment for travelling expenses, it is realized that representing a district such as this is, is far harder on the member than a nioe little compact distriot down south, where the local member can cover the whole district in a day with his car. Mr. Kergin expects to be away four or five weeks, so that he will be home only a few1 weeks before the fall session commences in Vio toria. \'b is a man's job represent' ing the Atlin riding, but our worthy member is equaj to the ocoasion. Naas River Fishing Season a Failure Sockeye fishing on the Naas River this year has been an absolute failure reports Provincial Constable D. S.
