After the in- abundance of timber, has made working bond on the Stoner group, which, owing to a change in plan, was recently released by the Federal Mining and Milling company. This property, consisting of 20 claims and fractions, is owned by H. B. Stoner, J. V. Clegg and |P. J. O'Rourke, and is situated at an elevation of from about 1000 to 4000 feet, on the east side of the Salmon river, Alaska, and immediately south of the international boundary, about 12 miles from tidewater. It is bounded on the west by the Virginia, now under bond to A. G. Larson, and on the south by the Daly Alaska and Alaska Premier properties. On the north side, just across the border, is the International group, also owned by Trites, Wood and Wilson. This gives these gentlemen a very large piece of territory, containing a number of promising showings, within a mile of the Premier mine, in which they are also heavily interested. lhe deal, which was consummated in Vancouver last week, calls for a substantial cash payment, that has already been made. The actual price aet on the property, while known to be considerable, can not be deti- nately ascertained.

No Advertising Accepted for First Page FRUGAL ADDRESS THE king and Bonar Law hare furnished a parsimonious model for speeches from the throne. In opening the first session of the presnt parliament the king read an address of 280 words. Deliberately read, this speech would take two minutes of time. At Ottawa and Victoria it is thought necessary to prepare an address of ten or twelve hundred words without conveying any more information than than that delivered at Westminster. Ireland, the state of trade and industry, Austria, the Near East, and Lausanne are all in the speech from the throne. There is no mention of the cattle embargo, from which it is inferred that the matter will be postponed until next year. industrial loans have met very hospital receptions in American money markets, with the resultant flow of large sums across the border. '. "Large amounts of money have been spent in Canada by boot-legging outlaws. A substantial boost to Canadian prosperity came from these two sources. "American motor car tourists have contributed to it importantly. In the last twelve months 600,000 American motor cars crossed the border into Canada. On the basis of an assumed seven-day trip and the expenditure of $25 a day for each car it is computed by Canadian statisticians that the total of American money thus left with our neighbor reached upward of $100,000,000. This is not a staggering amount, to be sure in these billion-dollar days, but it is a tidy sum. "Canada may well be exultant over the recovery of her currency." ENCOURAGE THE PROSPECTOR UNKNOWN PREMIER WE cannot afford to lose the prospector, says the Engineering and Mining Journal Press. Even if his numbers are fewer, he should all the more be encouraged. His services cannot be duplicated. Neither the engineer nor the geologist can undertake to do his work or fill his place, or stop the gap he would leave were he not active. Assuredly, there is hope for his searching. There are many nooks in mountain and desert yet to be thoroughly examined, and even, especially in the North and South of the continent, lands unexplored or only half explored, While his major activities will expand in ever-increasing circles away from the old seats of intensive mining the day of the prospector has not passed as yet. German money is at par in British Columbia. That is, it is worth the paper it is printed on.

Some men spend so much time knocking that they haven't time to discuss such an important topic as "Home Rule for Stewart." AS "ITHERS" SEE US THE New York Herald, commenting on the fact that "the Canadian dollar is taller now by a fraction of a cent's width than the dollai of Uncle Sam" declares it is natural that Canada should be proud of thia fact is it is only a short time since Canadian currency was at a discount of 16 or 17 per cent in United States money. "The change registers a story of prosperity and sound business conditions of whieh any country would have a right to be proud," continues the Herald. "Several things have combined to bring about this happy state of affairs. "In the first place Canada haa turned an adverse balance on international trade into a favorable Hatancr, and, of course, the very foundation alone of foreign exchange is imbedded iu foreign trade balances. "Again. Canadian government and There's a man in the Portland canal district so lazy that if he sat down on a tack, he would simply whine, rather than exert a little energy to move. Sir Auckland C-eddes, premier of Australia, on hia visit to Canada the past summer, gave thin adviae to Canadians: "May where you are.

The mining laws of this Province are more liberal and the fees lower than those of any oth?r Province in the Dominion, or any Colony in the British Empire. Mineral locations are granted to discoverers for nominal fees. Absolute Titles are obtained by developing such properties, security of which is guaranteed by Crown Grants.

British Columbia Canadian National Railway GRAND TRUNK PACIFIC RAILWAY Prediction: Coal will come down in the spring; everybody's die gets lowjr then. It is to laugh. A man makes up his mind to go out; but a woman makes up her face. It doesn't always pay to keep still and saw wood. Kaiser Bi tried it, and a widow landed him. Up to the hour of going to press, Germans have never included the kaiser in their war losses. There's a man in Stewart who prides himself of being hard- boiled. He's wrong; he's only half-baked. The German mark is now quoted in pounds. It requires a pound of the paper to buy a "snit" of beer. We have a multiplicity of laws, but could use one more that would prevent knockers from carrying cealed weapons. A Bruce exchange says "the world owes much to bankers." 'Tis true; 'tis true. But you needn't rub it in. It is better to live that a few- people will attend your funeral rather than that many should endorse the idea of it. On the level now, can you, as a father, look your small son in the eye and tell him you ever enjoyed taking castor oil?

Canada has one of the greatest zinc mines in the world, the greatest deposits of nickel and asbestos, and gold, silver, copper, oil, and many other minerals in abundance. In its basic mineral wealth Canada has the essentials for great and prosperous industries.

Clubs are being started in Canada to "uphold short skirts." The skirts worn by some chickens, on the coast, look more like paper collars. Conan Doyle says we can get jokes from the dead. Sure thing. The News devil says he laughs every time he reads the Princt- Bupert Empire. During the course of a month a man may have 999.999.996.999* reasons for accumulating a fine grouch, but why take it to a public meeting? If it isn't altogether too early to suggest Christmas shopping it would be a clever thing to get a pair of military hair brushes for a bald-headed man. TIIE OPTIMIST Your Opportunity!
