Property Lies Across Glacier From Big Missouri���Said to Present no Transportation Problem. Some of the best ore seen recently from the Salmon River section was brought down last week from the Motlierlode group, which was located during the summer by A. W. Balzimer and Patrick McBride. The group is situated about two miles from the Big Missouri cabin over the glacier and comprises six claims. A shipment of fifty pounds of the ore is being sent to parties interested in Vancouver. The principal value in the ore is silver, but there is some gold and considerable Lad. Three veins have been found on the property, two of them of high grade. An ass-ay as high as $148 a ton has been obtained. Although the property is situated over the glacier, transportation presents no problems, it is stated, for the glacier is dead and smooth.

Mr. Hull arrived from Seattle last Thursd^ ami the plant is expected in a f��w days. "Rube" Hull is one of the best known mining writers and all-round newspapermen in the west. He is a pioneer of such camps as Republic, Wash.. Grand Forks and other camps of British Columbia. CINCE the above map waa made there has been considerably more devel- ^ opment in both Bear River and Salmon River sections and a report of this increased activity is expected to Hppear in the next government report. This map does not show a number of properties on which a lot of work has been done and large bodies of ore exposed. With the close of the season's work h--re, George ("lothier, government engineer, has got well over both sections so that the next report vvili be the most complete and up to date that he has made.

Everywhere there is a tightening up, men are coming in to fix up their cabins and resi 'ences, and from all directions come reports which indica'e that Stewart this winter will have a real population. To those who wintered here in the lean HYDER, ALASKA LINDEBORG'S ADDITION NOW ON THE MARKET Lots from $100 up Cet in on the Ground Floor Two ways to get into the famous Salmon River Country���By airplane and by Hyder. Full particulars about prices and terms may be had on the ground. BUY NOW BEFORE PRICES ADVANCE town is onee more on the map, a d all I indications are that the early spring will bring hundreds who will come to , ' avoid a rush. It is reported from the i outside that things are shaping as they ! did in 1910, when the town o Stewart years this is welcome news. Last win-! was built in the snow and a population ter there were some seventy persons j of about three thousand had sprung up here. That was not population enough to keep the trails into the business section open. But for all that it was a happy family, with little sickness, and hope in the breast of every one. The past season saw these hopes justified to a large extent, for development has taken place in all directions. This win- tor there will be a considerable population and the Citizens' Association is making preparations accordingly. The building known as the "Tin Roof" bbek, by reason of the fact that the roof is of corrugated iron, has been obtained for a town hall and place of amusement. Dances will be given reg ularly there, and during the winter local talent will hold entertainments. In previous winters the schoolhouse, which is a considerable distance from the business part of the camp, was use J for dances and entertainments; but it was a difficult task even walking the distance by reason of the heavy snows. Although Stewart is situated so far north, it has, generally speaking, a mild winter climate. Eighteen below is about as far down as the thermometer goes and such cold weather is the exception. But it snows. The very mildness of the climate seems to add to the snowfall, for a matter of ten feet is nothing extraordinary. But like the rains of Vancouver, which they say are not wet, the snows here not cold. And then in February the crusts come, when navigating over the snow is better than sliding along rain greased pavements. The people of Stewart who intend to remain inside over the winter face the coming season with a great deal more heart than the last few winters, for the before the snow had gone from the peaks. That was a boom of the artificial sort, so to speak, while the coming excitement here has been c;.u ed by th. development of the past year. It is beginning to look as if next year might see a provincial election. The Conservatives have reaffirmed W. J. Bowser in the leadership, have held a convention, and no doubt preparations for the fray are being made. On the other hand, the Liberals, with Hon. John Oliver at their head, are busy also. The Liberals have gained strength during the past year or so. They will admit themselves that they lost fast when they first took power, but that was through polical inexperience��� rather office-holding inexperience���and and tfce ideas of the late Premier Brewster and his counsellors, whoever they were. Although in principal good, as things are framed politically under the present system, they were im; ractical, with the result that things for awhile were going to pot. The next election unquestionably will be more bitter than the last. Which means mud and corruption all over. The people of the north are not usually concerned much with politics, but on account of the development which the past year has seen there are a lot more votes in the north than before. The coming battle prom- ses to be a merry o: e and hectic.
