Raven Property at Alice
Showing Up Good
The Raven group of olaims is
showing up good under development work. J. Calvin who is
workiqg on the property states
that the big mineral ledge
oan be traced the full length of
three olaims and has an average
width from 12 feet to 40 feet.
Open outs have been driven aoross
the ledge, and the ore carries copper and galena, and the ohances
are> good for the development "of
enormous bodies *of ore. The raven
group is composed of three claims,
and is on the opposite side of Paul
Kladuo creek from -the LaRose.
The big ledge was discovered by
Chas Munroe who staked the property, and is now owned by J. O.

Police Chief Visits Alice Arm
Mr. A. C. Minty, chief of provincial police for the ..Prince Rupert
district, was in Alioe Arm for a few
days during the week, in order to
determine whether it was advisable
that a constable be stationed here.
Mr. Minty stated that in all probability a constable would be stationed "here within the next few
weeks, and that the jail would
probably be located in town instead
of over half-a-mile out A building
in town had , been inspected
and was found to be satisfactory for the' purpose: Chief
Minty commented on the large
number of buildings erected since
his visit here three years ago, and
Was surprised at the progress
made.

Smelter Baseball Team
Win on Tuesday
On August 7th, the Smelter
again forgot that they hadvbeeh
eating gas for the past week and
came out on thelong end of a 6-1
score against the Elks. The game
was a tight one Until the last half
of the 4th. inning. In: the first
half of this inning the Elks, scored
run when Cody came home when
Mclntyre connected with one of,
Fortih's choiceofferings. However
in their half of this inning the
Smelter got revenge-and Fortin,
the first man up, hit a beautiful
liner high over the left fielder. '
Brown the next man up, got to
first on an error and the' next two
men faoing the Elks' hurler were
easy outs. It looked as though
two Smelter men were going to be
stranded oh bases, but Loeske hit
in the pinch and drove in two runs.
This started the fireworks; Sherman hit. Sheen poled\o«t a 2
bagger, and Sinclair got to first on
an error. Loeske, Sherman, Sheen
aud Sinclair scored after there were
two hands down, Matheson driving
in a brace of runs with a nice hit
The smelter seemed to have the
game on ice from then on as they
were never seriously in danger, the
fine hurling of Fortin being responsible for 9 strike-outs. , The Elks
garnered three more hits off his
delivery whilst the smelter were
finding Draudson for 9 safeties.
The Game was very evenly contested up to the fatal fourth and
outside of this one stanza it was
anybody's game. This now places
'the smelter in the running for the
play-pff and gives them an unbroken string of three victories.

Fallacy of Buying
By Mail
How would you like to journey
to the nearest city for a pound of
sugar, or a yard of muslin;   or  a
spool of thread, or a smoke? - And
how would you like to make
trip when you need a prescription
filled in a hurry, with death running   you a race)    You would
make some noise if forced to such
an extfemity--and then more noise.
You would say--and justly so-that.
a town in which you can not buy
a pound of sugar, or a  yard  of
muslin, or a spool of thread, or a
smoke or even-get a prescription
filled, is a mighty poor excuse for
a town and not worth living in.
Yet our merchants can only afford
to keep these things for your conveniences as Jong as you buy other
things from them.   It is not doing
this town any good to buy the little
things here and then chase off to a
city or send to a catalogue house
when you want something on which
the merchant has a chance to make
! a dollar.   Neither is it doing you
.any good, for the prosperity of each
citizen, is   dependent to a large
extent upon the prosperity of the
community as a whole.    We are
not telling you something you do
not know.   We are simply refreshing your memory in hopes the time
may come when our people will
conclude that a town that is worth
living in is worth trading in.
That's all.
above that which home institutions
can pay. Buying foreign and
unknown stocks always puts us in
mind of the man who patronizes
the mail order houses of the country
These same out-of-town purchas
ers when hard times come along
and they need credit, must then
apply to the home merchant, whom
they have ignored, for help. Just
so with a good many investors who
buy stocks they know nothing
about and when loss comes as its
doing with alarming frequency
these days, then they must sneak
around to the home banker for
greatly needed help. When you
want a horse shod you don't take
him to a plumber you take him to a
blacksmith shop because the man
there is in the business. And it's
the same with money; go to some
man who knows, in whom you
have confidence and in all money
transactions he ought to be your
home banker.
Repeal of Japanese Act
Demanded
Following the defeat of the Provincial government in the supreme
Court, Court of Appeal, Supreme
Court of Canada and Privy Counoil
in its efforts to exclude the Japanese from the forests, Crown land
government contracts of the provinoe, a movineht has been started to
demand the repeal of the Japanese
Treaty Act. This Act passed in
1912 at Ottawa is the stumbling
block of the province as it confers
on all Japanese full rights to enter,
move about and engage in business
here on the same basis as Canadian
subjeots. The demand will be
made for inclusion of a clause such
as was stipulated for by Australia
and South Africa limiting theright
of Japanese to enter here.

Excellent Education System
in Province
Education in British Columbia
is well oared for and a marked
evidence of the efficiency of the
system built up by Hon. J. D.
MacLean, minister of education,
was shown in the entrance and
Matriculation examination results
just issued. The examiners were
loud1 in their praise of the papers
handled and the percentage of
successful pupils speaks well for the
teaching staffs throughout the
province. ,
Operating Expenses of P. G. E.
Reduced
Operating deficits on the Pacific
Great Eastern Railway are being
reduced from month to month,
acoording to figures given out by
the department of railways under
Hon. J. D. MacLean. Meanwhile
the minister is also preparing a
definite plan for the future of the
line, which promises to change this
white Elephant Legacy into an
asset. At the coming fall session
of the Legislature it is expected
that the plans will have been completed.
Fire Warning Issued by ,
Minister
Although warnings have been
sent out repeatedly, Hon. T. D.
Pattullo, minister of Lands, has
another appeal to make to the citizens of British Columbia. The
hazardous season has arrived and
care during the next two months
will mean the saving of millions of
dollars.

The Copper
Market
Burdick, Logan St Company, Limited
737, Granville Street, ,.,
Vancouver, B.,0.
Special to the Herald
Copper sales during the last 24 hours
have been in fair volume, with prices a
little firmer, > While domestic sales
have been in small lots, one sale of
2,000,000 pounds was made at 14 3-4
cents.. Some 145-8 copper is obtainable but not enough to make a market.
France has been the best. European
buyer.during the past few days, England has been buying small quantities;
Export Oopper Association has done a
fair business with the Orient during
the last week and inquiries from
China and' Japan are rather active..
Several offers are out for substantial
amounts for the Orient, with good
prospects for sales. While the market
appears weak on the surface, it is not
really so and may. change to activity
soon, i Producers seem satisfied to
await the time when buyers are ready,
to come back into the market. There
is little copper in hands of outside
market, and this is a factor in keeping
prices firm.;    a
Most of domestic and foreign buying
continues from hand to mouth, but
the situation is sound as inventories
are low and consumers have been out
of the market for a long time. Electrolytic copper for domestic purposes'
is 14 3-4 cents delivered, to end of
October.''
Exports from United States
Boston—Exports of copper during
June were, 66,942,000 pounds, the
largest in over a year, except January.
Exports for the first half of the year
were, 375,079,680 pounds, against 442,-
346,340 a year before. During the first
three weeks in July exports of copper
from Kew York were, 32,020,800
pounds. ■
Granby Company's Production
for this Year
Boston—Granby Consolidated Mining, Smelting and Power Co., Ltd.,
in the first six months of this year,
produced 16,000,000 pounds of copper,
running somewhat, ahead of the
scheduled rate of 30,000,000 a year.
Production costs. and earnings are
comparable with those of last year,
considering two increases in wages
since October 1st, 1922.
' i Work is progressing rapidly on the
company's new concentrator at Anyox
scheduled for completion about the
first of the year. This mill will add
materially to the .flexibility of operations andimprove furnace metallurgy
through production of concentrates
from ore not entirely suitable for
direct smelting. Advantage will also
be derived from the cheap hydroelectric power now assured through
completion of the storage dam to
impound water supply' for winter
operation.
