New Hoist For Snowshoe
Is One of the Largest in
Boundary Country.
the
Fatality at the Knob Hill.
F. Turton Killed While Birring
Down Ore.
Tlie double conical drum
hoist for the Snowshoe mine
has arrived and is being put in
place over the new 400-foot
shaft. It was manufactured by
thetf)enver Engineering Works,
of Denver Colorado, and is rated at 150 horse power, being
one of the largest in the Boundary country. Skips will be used
in connection with the hoist,
each holding two tons of ore,
and the machine will raise from
400 to 500 tons of ore per shift
from the 400-foot level or deeper, the main shaft now being
down nearly to the 400-foot
level.
With the hoist was sent a
large electric motor, by which
it will be driven, the power being furnished by the Cascade
Water, Power & Light Co., now
in operation, the lines of which
run close to the property.
The shipment arrived in two
carloads, and the machinery
when installed and in operation
will give the Snowshoe mine
ample capacity to increase the
daily shipment of ore by at
least 100 per cent, with ease.
Tlie mine management reports that the total ore shipments for the last year was 20,-
H00 tons, nearly all of which
was sent to the Sunset and
Mother Lode smelters, and most
of which was sent out in the
last, six months. The shipments of ore for 1903 promise to
be very much larger than for
1902.
Last Monday morning about
nine o'clock a miner, named
Fred Turton, met with almost
instant death at the Knob Ilill
mine, in I'hoenix camp. With
a partner, Charles Smith, he
was barring down some ore at
the top of the No. 4 raise, from
tunnel No. 1 to the glory hole,
when Smith advised him not
to work there any longer, as
there was great danger of tha
ore giving way under him,
Turton, however, paid no attention, and a few minutes later
the ore suddenly gave way, taking Turton with it, and almost
burying him. He died a few
minutes after the accident.
Turton was a native of Yorkshire, England, and a member
of Phoenix miners' union, having been employed in Rossland
and at the Knob Hill mine since
last April. He was well liked
by his fellow workmen and employers} He has relatives in
Springfield Illinois, and in the
state of Washington .
May Revise Canadian Tariff.
Ottawa, Jan. 3.—Signs continue to multiply that at the approaching session of the Dominion parliament  important developments may be expected in
the direction of revision of the
Canadian customs tariff.   Tha
probabilities are that tariff walls
will be strengthened generally
to provide more adequate protection to Canadian indrustries.
Canadian iron and steel interests
demand   better   protection   in
thisparticular.   The manufacture of steel rails and structural
steel may be cited.   Steel  rails
can be purchased from either
the United States or Germany
for delivery in Canada cheaper
than   consumers   in   either  of
these  two   countries can  buy
them, and can now be imported
into this  country  free of duty
when weighing over 45 pounds
per lineal yard.   The total iron
and steel consumption   of  the
Dominion now amounts to upwards of 1,000,000 tons a year, of
which hardly one third   is the
product    of- Canadian   works.
The   proportion    produced    in
Canada is  the  output    under
protection.

R. is  Unable to Handle
Freight Promptly.
A dispatch from Pluenix sayR
that for some reason not explained t<> the satisfaction of
the mine and smelter operators in tho Hoiindary country,
the 0, P. R. appears to be totally unable to move the ore and
coko tonnage called for in this
section at this time. Since and
before the first of the year nearly all the shipping mines have
been complaining of a shortage
of cars and when received and
loaded they are not taken away
with the promptness required
to keep everything in tho best
of running order for the mines
and smelters.
This year the snow for this
part of the season has beeu unusually heavy, there being three
to four feet on the level in many
parts, and this, coupled with tho
shortage of motive power on
the part of the railway
pany, has aggrivated
trouble.
Although the C. P. R. has so-
cured some lomocotive power
from the Kettlo Valley line, and
is using it as far as possible, it
does not seem to relieve the
condition. Unless the railway
people make special efforts at
once to relieve the situation,
some of the furnaces in the
smelters will have to be blown
out temporarily until the tonnage can be promptly handled.
As itis, the mine managers are
complaining loudly.
Congdon  will  Govern  Yukon.
Ottawa, Jan. 3.—Mr. Frederick T. Congdon, K. C, Crown
Prosecutor for the Yukon Territory, will succeed Hon. J, II.
Ross, as Governor. News that
this apointment will be made
within a few days was officially
confirmed to-day, and the next
issue of the Gazette will probably contain notice of the passing of the order in   Council.
Mr. Congdon arrived here a
few days ago from Dawson, aud
will not return to the north until the early spring. In tha
meantime affairs are being administered by Mounted Police
and other officials at Dawson,
who keep in touch with Ottawa by wire.
Mr, Congdon was chairman
of Governor Ross' executive
committee at Dawson during
the recent campaign, and as
such achieved consideralile political prominence. As Crown
Prosecutor, he is said to have
done excellent work in the cases
against Labelle and Founder,
the murderers of Bouthillctte
and others, during the past summer. Mr. Congdon is a young
man, and was a prominent supporter of the Laurier Government before he went to the Yukon.
Broke All Previous Records.
Pekenix, Jan. 5.—Yesterday
the Granby mines again broke
their own record for one day's
shipment of ore. Christmas
Day these mines sent out 00
cars of ore. with eight cars from
the Snowshoe, making over
2,(H!0 tons for the 24 hours,
which was the record for one
day from this camp up to chile.
Yesterday tto Granby mines
alone sent out 73 cars of orb, or
about 2.2l.) tons. As far ns
I known, this is the largest tonnage ever sent out from one
group of mines from any camp
in the province in a single day.

SATUKDAY, JANUARY, 10, iM
Aresicfoabof tb'a districl. has
received a letter from Premier
Prior in which he states that it
is the government's intention
to build (woof the bridges for
the West Fork wagon _6_i<
this winter. Was Mr. Killeen
making false promises when he
said they would all be built?
Premie.• Prior is in favor of
liberal land grants to encourage
the construction of railways,
but he is not, in favor of building a railway to Fort Simpson
to compete with Victoria and
Vancouve.', especially Victoria,
This means that Mr. Prior proposes to donate the laud, which
belongs tlie people of the province as a whole (?) to build up
a particular section (bis section)
of the province. This shows
the breadth of the premier's
mind, and also that he will have
the support of the coast grafters.
To celebrate the accession of
King Edward as Emperor of India, the Viceroy, Lord Curwm of
Kedleston made his state entry
into the capital of the Moguls
on the morning of the 20th of
Dec. ultimo. At: the head of the
elephant procession rode Lord
and Lady Curzon on the state
"Grand Tusker," 12 feet high.
The Duke of Connaught, who
represented King Edward, with
the Duchess of Connimglit
followed on another "(irand
Tusker." Then in order of precedence, came the Niinan of Hyderabad, the Maharajah of Tra-
vancore and seventy other ruling chiefs. In the rear of the
procession rode General Lord
Kitchener wit1) a brilliant staff.
They received a flattering reception.
The Bureau of Provincial Information has issued a bulletin
containing a report of a lecture
delivered in London, England,
by the Hon. J. 11. Turner, agent
general for the province. Tbe
report contains much valuable
inforinatioii that should be of
interest to those who are think-
in;: of immigrating to Canada,
and should be inst rumental in inducing a large nuinhor to leave
the old country, where it is* altogether too crowded* and settle
ill western Canada, which offers
good inducements to young
men, who are not afraid of work,
or to the capitalist, who is looking for good investments. Too
much attention is, perhaps,
paid to the scenery of British
Columbia. This is a mistake
made by nearly all who write
or lecture on British Columbia.

i.s difficult to understand. These
lands nre supposed to belong to
the people, but if an individual
desires to purchase or preempt land in B. C„ he. of course,
is requested to have it surveyed and to pay a good price for
the land. In nearly all, if not
all, the other provinces and
territories there are free home-
sti ads. Every effort is made to
induce settlers to settle on the
public lands, the government
realizing that every industrious
settler becomes both a consumer and producer, and thereby
adds to the wealth of the country. In B. C. there is no organized system for the settlement
of the vacant lands. Even in
some of the practically settled
districts, there has been no
survey of the land. Settlers
looking for land cannot get the
desired information. There are
no ii]) to date maps. We occasionally hear about H scheme
to settle Malcolm island or
Bulkley Valley or some other
district, but, as stated above,
tliere is no regular system.
There is the same crudeness
that characterizes the management of public affairs in British
Columbia generally.   The idea

SATUHI1AY, JANUARY, 10,  lflttt.
Will Ignore Boundary   Line.
Witli the object of running
to earth u desperate gang of
freebooters operating on the International boundary, tlie Canadian Northwest Mounted Police and the Montana civil authorities have decided to ignore
the 49th parallel till tlie job is
done. The outfit is known as
the Johnson and Jones gang,
which makes its headquarters
on the Montana side of the
boundary, south of the Willow
Bunch tmd Wood Mountain territory in Alberta. Johnston
nnd Jones are outlaws, equally
handy with gun nnd rope, and
for a long time have terrorized
the district and plied their calling of cattle thieves on a .small
scale. With them are associated frequently other undesirable
characters. Early last summer
they held up the foreman of the
Crane Lake ranch, and in Oc-
tober last robbed a halfbreed
near Willow Springs, well within Canadian territory. For
Ihese doings the Mounted Police were keeping a sharp watch
upon the gang and so rendered
it very risky for them to operate on the Alberta side of the
line, ity way of reprisal, doubtless, a shot was fired at Constable La Chappele, orderly to
Inspector La Rocque, as he was
walking toward the Mounted
Police headquarters near Willow Bunch, The outlaws, thinking him dead, rode away and
left him lying in the road, Ho
was badly wounded. Reinforcements were at once sent
to the Wood Mountain detatoh-
nient, and as the infested district is on the boundary line, a
fact of which the outlaws made
shrewd use, an arrangement
has been come to whereby tlie
Canadian and United States authorities may operate on either
wide of the boundary while in
pursuit of  the gang.
