A Strong Local Branch
of Provincial Mining
Association Formed
Tuesday Night.
In response to the call for a public
meeting Tuesday night in the Eagle
block to discuss tbe advisability of
organizing a brunch of the B, C. Provincial Mining Association thore was
an excellent attendance of representatives of tbe mining and business interests of tbo camp und much enthusiasm
was Bhown ln the subject. It scorned
to be recognized by all present that an
opportunity had arisen whereby some
thing of a substantial character might
be done io the way of fostering mining,
which industry is tho foundation of the
province's wealth.
The meeting was opened by W. Mac*
donald moving, seconded by D. G.
Forbes that Robt. Hodgo be chairman
of thc meeting. The motion wus car*
rled unanimously and Mr. Hodgo took
tho chair and called tho meeting to
order. B, G. Hodow theVi moved
seconded by Harry Carter, that Frank
Holten be secretary���carried.
Mr. chairman explained tho object
of the meeting and read tho circular
letter from Victoria that has boon so
widely circulated. He also, said the
first question to decide was whether or
not wo should form a branch of the
association in Ferguson and called on
gentlemen present for an expression of
opinion. D. G Forbes, manager of the
Great Western and Silvor Cup Mines,
was the first to respond. He thought
thoy had selected a poor speaker In
calling on him, but he wished to say he
was heartily in < sympathy with the
movement that had brought them
together. When ho was in Western
Australia tho legislature was controlled by  a  few  runners  down   at the
In the same position hero. Tlie Inter
osta of tho Interior were not given the
attention thoy woro rightly entitled to.
A. J. Gordon was the next speaker.
He said be had rend tho circular letter
and thought this was a movo in the
right direction. Men are combining
their interests everywhere for
strengthening their particular branch
of industry, und if organization was a
means of good to the mercaut lie and
like Industries it would surely prove a
source of strength to the mines.
Protection is given to most of the
brunches of Canadian industry but the
mines meet taxation on every side. He
thought this occurred principally
from a lack of knowledge on tlie part
of the government, of the true condition that oxists, and when tho mem.
bers become educated, as lt will bei remarkable fortitude
part of this Provincial Association'sj]jret' women to bo h
duty to see dono we may hope for bet
ter legislation, Mr. Gordon concluded
by moving that wo form a local mining
association. This was seconded by
H. Carter.
H. Carter on being called on said he
noticed that associations were being
organized all ovor tbo country and If
such an organization would assist
other camps in the provinco It oertaln-
ly would hero.
S. Shannon responded to a call
from the chair und said ho thought
this an excellent opportunity for the
whole province to band together and
good results must certainly be
brought about, lie wus heartily in
uccord with thc movement.
A visitor wus  present from Trout
Lako in tho person of O. B. N. Wilkie
and on being asked foran opinion ho
said he thought tho time opportune
to put our wants in an intellignble
manner before tbe legislatu.10 und he
hoped for good results.
Mr. Gordon's motion that we form
an asssociation was put and carried
unanimously.
Mr. Macdonald moved seconded by
Mr. H. Carter, that the officers of the
association comprise a president, vice-
president, secretary-treasurer, and an
executive committee of five together
with the officers making eight with
power to add to the number. Mr.
Hodge suggested that the , officers
name the five members to make up the
committee���agreed. The motion wus
carried.
Messrs. Holdich and Sutherland
nominated Mr. Forbes for president.
This was carried and Mr. Hodge
vacated the chair in favor of tbe
president.
Messrs. Gordon and Holdich nominated S. Shanoon for vice-president;
this was caiuied. Messrs. Hodge and
Macdonald nominated F. Holton for
secretary-treasurer,���cart-led.
It was moved by R. Hodge, seconded
by J. Comerford that those, eligible
for membership be working miners,
mine owners, merchants, profeslonal
men, farmers and all those directly or
indirectly interested in mining,���carried.
On Mr. Gordon's suggestion the selection of a delegate was postponed till
next meeting which will be held ln
Eagle block Tuesday night, Feb. 17th
at 8 p. m.

The Electric Light Plant
Purchased by Smith
& Labeau. Will
Add More Power.
The electric light waa turned on
last weok but it was found that thore
was not enough water head to give
sufficient power to produce a good
light, so on Saturday tbe plant was
turned over to Smith & Labeau, proprietors of tbe local saw and planing
mill who have a water right on the
same creek that is used for supplying
power for the power house of the
electric light.
Smith &.Labeau had a force of mon
working all week shovelling snow, etc.
in order to increase the water supply.
The new proprietors expect no
difficulty in providing the necessary
power and hope to turn on the lights
again noxt Monday or Tuesday. The
unusual depth of snow has proven a
serious drawback but when the light
is turned on again it Is hoped there
will be no further trouble. Smith &
Labeau ure worthy of congratulation
on the good stroke of business in securing control of the electric light.

Wheat Raising Company.
Tho Star's London cable says:
The prospectus Is widely advertised
today of tho British-Canadian wheat
raising Company, with a capital of
$1,000,000, divided into 200,000 shares
of $5 each; 110,000 shares aro held ia
reserve. Tho vendor, J. Richard
Browne, of Montreal takes 00,000
shares and tlio remaining 50,000 are
now offered to the public. Tbo object
of tlio company is to acquire 20,000
acres J of land in Assinaboia to be
held under govornmont grant in per-
pcrpetuity. The company estimates
at least 30 bushels per acre and allowing for cost of cultivating atid-fthresh-
iug, it Is anticipated a net profit ot
$130,000 per annum, at a selling
price of 80 jcents per bushel can bo
made. Tho directors are J. Richard
Browne, Montreal; E, G. McEnery,
chief engineer, C. P, It.; Thomus
Mayne Duly, Winnipeg; J. U. Gregor,
Quebec; William Johnson, Winnipeg;
Hugh R. Cameron, Winnipeg; Charles
Casgrain, Montreal;.and two others to
bo elected by the English shareholders
after allotment of shares. The presence of E. H. McEnery on the board is
taken to indicate that sho company has
the backing of the C. P. R. Planting
will be commenced in April.
The Copper Market.
Tho copper murkot gains steadily in
strength. Lake copper is now firm on
basis of 12} cents the pound, with
other grades in proportion. A feat uro
of tbe situation is the scarcity of
offerings. During the past month producers have held tbe whip handle without question, and they have not been
slow to take advantage of their position. It is known that consumers of
the middle states have within the
past few days scoured the market
with a view of getting concessions,
but without effect. On every hand
there has been uniform firmness, and it
is conceeded thut an Imperative order
for any great [amount of copper, deliverable during the next six months,
could not bo obtuined at ruling prices.
It is froely predicted in many quarters that the metal will advance to 13
cents und above within tho immediate
future. A number of tho principal
producers aro apparently sold up woll
Into future months, and yet it is claimed that some of the heaviost'consumors
have not stocked up. The statement
in a current weekly market letter that
Lake copper is now selling on a basis
of 13 cents tbo pound might bo nil
right ono weok from now, but ut the
moment it is premature. Copper is
still obtainable in certain quarters at
12t cents, and according to New York
advlceda.fow small speculative lots
havo boeff offered at 121 cents, Copper interests aro quite generally
agreed tbat 13 cent copper is not far
away, but it is not yet hero.

0,056; Claims renewed numbered 4,451;
claims relocated, 2,040; grants issued
to near placer claims, 1196. The fact
that a great number of claims woro

statement that 5,531 certificates of

A Lengthy Report Issued and Recommendations Made to Convention Secretary.
Not having sufficient space for tbo
full report of the silver-lead delegation
which visited Ottawa, we givo beloiv
the reeommoiidations of the delegates.
In order that the support of thc commercial element may continuo in increasing activity, and that further cooperation of laboring, agrarian, and
political interests may be assured, wo
earnestly reccommend:
1. That a paid secretary be cm
ployed to attend to correspondence and
other necessary business.
2. That the senators and members
of the Dominion parliament lor this
provinco be requested to appoint an
early date and place of meeting with a
delegation representative of the silver-
lead mining industry, and that efforts
be made to secure the co-operation of
this delegation of tho commercial,
laboring aud political organizations of
this section.
3. That, with tho co-operation of
the local boards of trade, a representative be sent to tho Northwest Territories aud Manitoba to solicit thc
endorsation of the farming communities.
4. Thut a delegation consisting of
thoroughly well informed men. be sent
to Ottawa when parliament convenes,
to assist our member in advancing -our
necessities from tlie standpoint of thc
praetlcal.minet*.
We believo tlio government realizes
the exigencies of our case and the necessity of- according'us speedy relief;
that a growing public sentiment en
dorses our request for adequate tariff
adjustment, and that tlio foregoing
recommendations if acted or,, will
stimulate this sentiment, and by the
forco of expressed public opinion
nullify the arguments of politicnl extremists, or of thoso whose interest.-*

Mr. J. P. Earngy, editor of the Rossland Msncr and proprietor of tho Hat
Portage Minor, passed through the
eliy yesterduy on his way from Rossland to inspect bis interests at Rat
Portage. Iu conversation with a reporter ho stated that there is miloll
Improvement In the mining tone of
British Columbia, and prospects of
increased activity during the coining
season. In tho past the chief attention has been paid to high grado ores,
but with improved machinery it has
been shown that low grude ores can bo
treated with profit. Ores that would
only yield from $2 to $4 per ton havo
hitherto been completely ignored. Arrangements ure now being made ito
install mammoth plants to treat these,
which will mean a largely Increased
mining population and business. Mr.
Earngy considers British Columbia to
be the richost province in tho Dominion and richer by fur than -any the
states of the Union. What has been
accomplished lu mining mutters he
declares to bo only a foretaste of what
will be dono during, tbo next decade.

EDITORIAL MOTES.
It is desirable that a large.number turn out to the meeting of the
mining association in Eagle hall
next- Tuesday night, when a delegate will be chosen to attend the
Victoria Convention and a discus-
cussion will take place
ol the        objects       to      be
attained by the association. It
seems to us that this is an opportunity ot which the greatest possible advantage should be taken. In
thc first place to build up a strong
local and then carry the enthusiasm
to Victoria through our one or
more representatives. Therefore
the most,important object to work
for at present is to get a strong
membership enrolled, then turn out
Tuesday and have a rousing meeting and have our delegates carry to
Victoria a hatful of good ideas to
put before the convention, At the
said convention it is most probable
that standing committees will be
appointed to prepare a memorial to
be submitted to the provincial house
at the forthcoming session and this
document will be prepared in a
large measure from the conclusions
arrived at in convention. Therefore
we trust that every man who can
will turn out to the meeting Tuesday night.
Senator O'Neill, of Idaho, has a
bill before lhe state senate providing for ilia taxation of mines on a
basis of iheir net proli!. The bill is
strongly upheld by Ihe mine owners
and mining promoters throughout
the state, but many of the taxpayers are opposed to it, and un amendment has been prepared to make
the taxation apply to the value of
the ore deducting only the cost of
mining. This seems to us hardly
fair treatment ol the mine operators
tor any commodity, is practically
valueless until it is reduced to a
marketable state.

LARDEAU MINES, LTD.
The threo claims owned by the compnny nre the "Lardeau
Queen," the "Lnrdeau King" and tho "Lardeau Prince," all abutting
ond to on,c|, through which throe leads pass tho entiro length, situated at thb liend of Lexington creek, In tho Lardeau mining division
of Wost Kootenav,, British Columbia.
These'throb eluiiii9 llro located on the western slope ol Goat Mountain, the linen being noi-.h-wos.erly and south-easterly, and form ono
complete portion of Mineral land of about 150 acres. Tliey he oast
loss than four miles up from Pish river.
The group lies in the "Sitting Bull" and "Wild West" belts,
two of tho strongest nnd best lenown leads In that district, nnd work
already done nn apjacent detentions has given most satisfactory
results as to extent of ore bodies nnd increased values with depth.
Tho formation Is slate and schist, lying in an immense limo
dyke, and the oropplngs of the leads nro generally topped with heavy
Iron capping and quartz, which gives assays from *.S upon tho
surface.        * .,,
VEINS AND WORK DONE
Exploitation consists of two open cuts  along tho surfaco for a
distanco of, twenty  foot,  whieh  exposed a body  of argentiferous
galenaovoi'Slnelies in width.   The valuoof this oro body was$25.(i0
on the surface, but at a dopth of less than threo feet it has incroasod
to $40.60.    To  tap this oro showing and the massive Iron capped
lodge closo to which It lies tho present tunnol was commenced and
is now In a distance of 82 feet.    Another   85   feot ol   crosscutting
should reach this ledga at a dopth of about 125 foet.     When 61 feot
had beon driven, an almost'solld body of iron ore throo foot thick
was  encountered in tho tunnel lying against a wall ol slato.   A
sample at this point assayed $77.00 in gold, silver, copper  and  lead.
At a distance of 14 feet from this lead a line body ol ore lias been
'  encountered which, wben crossed, proved to be seven and a half feet
1  wide, carrying the finest looking mineral yet found on the property.
...A third ledge which contains the richest ore anil widest surfaco
showing, will be reached about February 15t.li.   This ledgo when
'encountered, will bo from 12 to 15 feet wide and great results are
expected.
The property has an excellent surface Bhowing. Tho average
assays are most encouraging, considering tbe great width and con-
tinuancy of the leads across the country with such great width and
prominence of the surfaoo judging from other properties in the near
vicinity, some of which are on tho same lead and have developed
very rloh oro bodies.
In conclusion I would say that the Lardeau Mines aro as good as
any, if not the best, in tho vicinity, and I verily bolicve with a
nominal expenditure, they should be rundo dividend paying in a
short time, and I would strongly recommend extensive development
toward that end.
