Company will be Reorganised on an Assessable Basis. The Waterloo Mining- Milling Com. pany willdisorgani&eand reincorporate as an assessable company with ils old capitalization of 1,250,0110 shares of n par value of 10 cents per share. The the new conipany will give one share of stock in theold company upon the surrender of the old sto-'k. At the meeting of the stockholders held recently 1100,000 shares of stock were represented nnd voted by actual holders or hy proxy. The amount fnr which the stock is assessable is four cents per share, payable ill. a rate not to exceed two mills per share per mouth. This assessment will tiring the company $30,000, and it was the belief of the stockholders represenledal the meeting that not more than one half of this amount would he needed to demonstrate thnt they had a mine on a dividend paying tiasis. The Waterloo property is located in ''amp McKinney, Within the past year the stock has mercurialized in price frnm one cenl per share to 12 tents, untl brokers consider it one of the most widely disseminated stocks on lhe local market. Tlie ore is similar to that of the Car i In ui, in the same camp. The vein hus faulted repeatedly, necessitating con siileralileextra work. The recent re ports frnm the property are said to lie favorable, and ah hough lhe mine has been idle for some time, the manage men I is sanguine that a few weeks will place the preperty in good shape. THE WAUCONDA. More riachlnery for the Mine Arrives ut Midway. Two more carloads of machinery, being the balance of the plant fur the Waucnnda mine, Toroda Creek, arrived in Midway on Tuesday, and is lieing hauled lo the mine hy the teams of lt. Meyerboff, who has the or tract for hauling all of the machinery, for the Wauconda. Aliout forty men are now emp'oyed in erecting buildings and getting ready fnr the mai hineiy as, soon as it arrives at lhe mine. Some lii tlu delay has lieen occasioned in getting on with the work, caused hy the part of the plant that was needed Hrsl lieing shipped last. But as all of the machinery will l>e at the mine in the course of Ihe next few days, nn more delays of ihis nature will lie experienced, Wilh the installation nf a compressor md reduction planl at the Wauconda and machine drills taking Ihe place of ihe linn.1 article, great results may lie looked for from tbis promising mine. Economy in Mining. The steady pressure from the necessity ot making savings and economies somen here in the costs nf metal production, to offset the steady downward tendency of metal selling prices, luis been the cause of many improvements in the mining and metallurgical aris. The eiilightemrnt that Hntls its birthplace in necessity, dealing wilh the economics of mining has, clearly defined the line of division lietween production and consumption lo be nn the production side of Ihe ultimate BOUNDARY ORE SHIPMENTS. The tonnage of ore shipped by the mines of the Boundary District during September, to 25th inst., so far as ascertained. is as under : TONS Old Ironsides and Knob Hill group '5.823 Mother Lode 5.818 B. C 1,500 Winnipeg 200 King Solomon 270 Snowshoe 344 No. 7 120 Total i 24,075 Shipments during 1900 totalled 97,781 tons, and during the current year to September 25, 264,408 tons, making an aggregate of 362,189 tons. consumer pays iu one sum Is costs from hi* standpoint. This wime sum re- guided from the other end consists of many items of separate Hat costs, at d running wilh the separate Nat costs, one or more separate items of profit. In the development of the business of mining, each of these ileitis has it, turn been taken Into consideration l-y tbe producer, and lhe effort nuidu to make in it the maximum possll le economy and saving, primarily in maintain or increase the profit margin agninst the constantly decreasing sale prices. What itiay he termed the trade handing nf the metal by middle men between the lust producer, who by labor or material added teal value to the metal, and the consumer, wl.o puts the metal directly into reproductive use ns capital, has been more or less largely eliminated, and an economy of interest, on capital between the taking of metal front the mine and its delivery to the consumer, Thu etude sum so saved increased the prolit margin at Hist, hut in the end lhe competition of Increasing production tends again to ibe wiping nnt of tit* piotit margin and forces additional economies aud savings. At ihe mine the mining costs have received material reduction ihrough the improvement in methods aid machinery by which capital, whit h has been becoming cheaper, is substituted for labor, which has been becoming denier. The metallurgical costs huve received an even tins, r searching for reducible terms. In the aggregate enormous savings and economies have lieen effected hy the de. velopuient nf processes by which all the metals of one ore, o- the several nietnls of several oies, interacting, lie- tome all letliicid and utili/.able, and by the constant improvement iu mechanical appliances permitting, as wilh mining, I he substitution of cheap- er capital lor dealer lalior. The metal manufacturing arts, long regarded m entirely separate industries from ihe metal mining and mrt.illoigy, huve been added to and cuUlliined wilh Ihe Iai ter to secure fun her savings ami economies. Notably is this so in iron, in which the single husiness now comprehends every slep from the ore, fuel aud flux in the ground, to the finished finally consumable article. The same development is beginning iu lead mining, in zinc mining, and in copper mining. The marked feature of the economic changes in every item of these savings and economics iu metal mining is tlte substitution made of cheap capital for dear labor. The la bur cost, irrespective nf the rate of wages, has not only heen kept down, but it has been diminished, There has heen a constant tendency to the cheaper production with the higher wages. What was observed long since as a law of Knglisli industry generally, has proven particularly true of tbe mining industry, which is distinctively American. While it is by no means to be assumed that Ilie limit of saving and economy has been reached in tlie general items nf cost considered above, the margin of such saving and economy has been reduced well down to its ultimate minimum, and it would seem us if the one remaining cost item—transportation—was "the reducible item" of lhe cost of metal production, The problem nf freight cost in metal production is tint new, ami it cannot lie said to be unstudied. Yel it has been an item that, perhaps, more lhan any of the ol tiers, hns seemed a direct cost charge on the consumer rather than on lbe producer. The latier has nnly exceptionally given it lhe effective analysis that has brought results in saving.) and economies, In lhe iron industry and iu the petroleum industry this has been done with exceeding skill and success. In the general metal mining industry, however, transportation remains whal may, to the practical exclusion of all others, be termed "the reducible item," The consolidation of mining businesses has reduced time between production and consumption as a cosl item. Invention and better technical skill have reduced the waste of material und labor cost items. There yet remains tn lie at;. complished the reduction of space between product ion and consumption as a cost item.— Mining and Scientific Press. .*. A rlonth to Live.

The satisfactory returns from ore fnun iheliodie.whit'h has prompted ils owneis lo make regular weekly shipments from lhe mine lo the Oreenwood smeller, puts new life into that portion of Hodie cainp that is in thn immediate vicinity of the Bodie mine, for there are a number of properties on which considerable work has been done, hm on which operations hive been suspended pending the tte suits received from receiittlevelopment work nn the liodie, which work has demonstrated beyond a doubt the rich iicss of tbat mine. Work will now he commenced on these properties mid diligently continued nnlil their win lb has been proven, for the values of lhe ll.nlie ore are siitllcienily high to encourage futther development in that camp as the owneis of surrounding claims are almost certain that if a ledge of any sine he encounter, tl tbey have a paying mine. The arrival of Ihe balance of the machinery for the compressor and reduction plant at the Wauconda mine is another encouraging Indication of ihu early advancement in lhe mines nf Toroda creek, It Is also pleasing to mile that work has been resumed tin lhe (ioleonda, in Smith's camp, Shnuld lhe present •viirk disclose ihe presence of Ibe ledge in the tunnel, there is lb tie doubt, that the Golconda will he extensively Worked, Tlte tunnel on the lliickhurn, Myers creek, is expected to strike the ledge in the course of the next few days, and altogether there is reason to believe that there is a decided revival In lhc milling industry tributary to Midway.

Anyone carrying on a business of any kind, no matter how small, in a, town where a newspaper i.s published will, if alive to his own interests, advertise his business, Take the successful busine.-s man and ask him to what he attributes Iiis prosperity, and iu nine cases nut nf every ten the question will meet wilh the same reply: To advertising. Thousands, nn the nther hand, who have at some time in their lives been engaged in business, but have been unsuccessful, can attribute iheir failure to the fact that Iheir names never decoraiett lhe advertising columns of a newspaper. Tliere is a lime in lhe history of every town when it may tint he necessary to advertise, thai is when a town is so small that il only contains one business house of each kind, but I hat Is only in exceptionally new places, and most of the towns of even this comparatively uew province have pasted ibal. stage, and Ibe business mail of almosl any town llnds tbat be is mil Ibe only pebble nn lhe beach, that ''There are olhers." Let once competition lie engaged in, in any line of business and il is the utmost folly for anyone of them to expect to lie successful without advertising. Sun e business men have an idea that all that is necessaiy to advertise iheir husiness is to have their names printed in large letters on a sign, nr nn the building occupied by them. This idea is entirely erroneous. In the majority of cases the man who withholds his patronage from Hie newspaper ami thinks all Ihnt is necessary to draw trade his wav, is to have his name painted in huge letters across his place of husiness is entirely mistaken, for generally this class nf people offer such poor inducements to i he public in exchange for the coin of the realm, that Ihey would tin far beti er if they bad no sign, fnr then they might em rap the unwary, not knowing whose place they were drifting into, hut once the name of the proprietor is seen, that is enough, the woiild-be customer passes along, for the man who does not advertise has tn resort to such petty methods of getting hold of the almighty dollar in order to make a living at all, that his very name becomes offensive to Ihe public, Tlie local newspaper is the hest means liy which the puhlic are made acquainted with tlie names of lhe live business men of a place, of course yon will Hud men in nearly every town, who cull themselves business men, that do not ndverlise, but they are dead as far as the business world is concerned.

In several instances where there would otherwise have been competition there was an understanding that the purchasers having already huilton the respective lots should not he run up loa higher price than ihey .should offer themselves. There were 108 more lots on the list, hut no business was done iu connection with these. The government has Inst considerably by the long delay in offering the. hits for sale.

When tbe shaft nf the mine is sunk ou the vein or deposit, in the early stages of the development, the en Otis of loo common occurrence to Ilml that the ore on I he sides of lhe sbafi has been stuped out, because il was easy of access and conveniently mined al small cost, says a scientiflc mining journal. Tliis is generally the prospector's Hrst error, and Ihe desire for ore is in excess of Ihe means al hand if acquiring it at greater dentil, and on that account prospect shafts are seldom suitable for Ihe main working shaft of Ihe mine. When a shaft cuts ir passes through an ore chute on the vein when the mine has passed tlie prospectsl age, Ihe temptation is presented lo extract the rich ore on the sides of the shaft. If Ihere are no mining regulations in the district ui no mine inspector, these errors are sure to bapp ti The shaft of a mine whether on or off the vein in the entrance tn the workings and should he used for that purpose alone nnd not for the uiiject of stuping ore from its sides, which operation renders it unsafe and more liable to falls of roof or wall rock, whicli are liable at any time to block tho entrance, lf it is sunk on the vein, a suitable amount of ore, say 10 lo 25 feet, depending on the sl length of the ground, should be lefl on each side of the shafl, liefore any sloping olore is pel 'milted. Ills also a wise provision to leave the first 20 or more feet in depth from the sulfate which forms the back of lhe vein as a support to lhe loose surface wall rock and that constitutes It is only a question ofa short time until that portion of the Coast-Kootenay Railway from Curlew to Midway will be constructed. This line would be now being built, but for the scarcity of laborers. When this road is built, most of the spur lines to the different mining camps will start from here- making this the railway centre of this district. With the advent of more railways into Midway the prices of real estate will advance, and the choice lots purchased and taken off the market. Show your good judgment by buying now.
