But Opportunity is a fickle Goddess, who, if not woed when willing, seldom comes again. As in other things, so in mining. Dams Foftune smiled, and still smiles, upon the backers of the Dunwell; but just at a time when she was prepared to yield to her conquerors in generous manner, it would appear that they became shy and frightened, and under the influence of that greatest enemy of mankind, Fear, are apparently trying to retreat, by trying to sell Dunwell to someone whom they think is better able to carry on. Tone individual or aggregation of men in Canada has such an opportunity opened up, as has been laid at the feet of the Dunwell Company. Low elevation on a gentle slope, a wagon road almost to the tunnel's mouth, timber, water power, accessibility, all within five miles of deep tidewater, combine for most economical operation that would be hard to duplicate anywhere in the world. Hundreds of tons of ore that can be shipped direct to the smelter; thousands more of high-grade milling quality not only proven to great depth, but also traced on the surface over a great distance ���what more does the mining man want? whoever he is, or whoever they are, they have no business trying to play the mining game, much less have any authority. To say that Dunwell cannot be operated successfully by a British Columbia owned company is an absolute fallacy. Hollinger was once a small stock operation; the Guggenheims were originally peddlers in the mining camps and many more of the most successful mining operations were founded on small beginnings. Mining history is full of such facts. To say that British Columbians cannot do the same as others have done is not only false, but admits incompetence. Why not reorganize Dunwell, step out and employ an experienced mine manager, place him in full charge, even at a salary of $1000 per month, rah e enough money to install a small 50-ton mill and go to work. Dunwell can be put on an operating basis for $100,000, and yield to the shareholders far greater profit than they will ever get by selling out. This would create a British Columbia owned and operated mine. Dividends, pay-roll and supply account would practically all remain in the Province. A B.C. mining group would thereby be created that would hasten the day when we would not be forced to go to London, New York, Montreal or Toronto for capital with which to develop our natural resources. It is a crime against the Company. It is a crime against tha District. It is a crime against the Province. To sell Dunwell���and cold feet are no excuse. appointment f a SUMMER EXCURSION TICKETS EASTERN CANADA UNITED STATES and to JASPER NATIONAL PARK Oneway via Vancouver or direct rail both directions.

SUIT FOR IHE PRINCE JOHN (Continued from Page 1) York were false. In Position of Trust In connection with the staking it waa contended by Mr McLean that this was really done by Mr Mackenzie and that as agent of the defendant company he had i a right to hold the property fori that company. Mr Taylor held that in view of the fact that the Prince John | company had not had its licences I that it was not in a position un-; der the act to re-locate. Thej Exploration company was thej one that should have looked after these licences. He held that the j o��ily way out was for re-stakine* along the line followed and that! ithe Prince Joha shareholders: were to be looked after in the matter. Court's Decision The court, however, in delivering oral judgement at the end of a three days' trial said that effect should be given to the contention of Mr McLean in its entirety. The plaintiff company, said His Lordship, had no right of action. It had been dilatory also in proceeding. In the opinion of Mr Justice Gregory the strongest ground upon which he could base his judgement was that put forward that the plaintiff company heldi the property in trust for the defendant company. To allow the plaintiffs to succeed would, he felt, be a miscarriage of justice. The defendants had spent a lot of money on the property. The j plaintiff company had n�� assets, iand yet it was contended that by j a slip it could get possession of j this property. On the ground ^ j that it was to hold the claims in j trust for the defendant company, he pointed out that there was I nothing by which the rights of 'the defendants could be enforced if the plaintiffs got possession.

He was the man who was in the position that made him responsible for, seeing that this was carried out. Mr Mackenzie, as the agent of the company, should have done all he could to get the property for that company. He, however, had got the transfer of it te others. It would be a gross injustice, he felt, to have Mr Mackenzie profit by this transaction. While it had been held that Mr Mackenzie aid not know of the re-stakin��, he felt that this was incredible. He was satisfied that whoever did the sraking it was with the connivance of Mr Mackenzie and for his benefit, and he would decide that he could not keep the property.

Stewart Rogers Bldg. Vancouver Special Information Service To all parties interested in Portland Canal mining companies Enquiries Treated in Strictest Confidence. (Quotations by H.W.M.Rolston & Co) Continued improvement of the Dunwell strike is drawing public attention again te one of the district's favorites, as Dunwell has always been considered by men who know, te be a big mine in the making, and the hitting of high-grade on the surfacfe practically assures the continuation of 1000 feet to the north of the ore body in No. 3 tunnel. In view of these facts the stock is in steady demand at increasing prices. Starting to ship high-grade from the Porter Idahe has bro't. this stock very much into favor and it is in big demand, especially by those who have taken time to look into the prospects of the property. The Management announce that they will not need to go to the public for further financing until such time as heavy machinery is required. The smelter returns this year will leave a handsome profit after all exploration and current expenses have been met. A much higher level in Porter Idaho is expected. News from the Management that the long crosscut tunnel on Lakeview has cut 12 inches of high-grade at a depth of some 300 feet caused a stiffening in this stock. The big Dunwell strike being less than 500 feet from the Victoria line and the vein traced into this property, considerably I strengthened Victoria Mines stock. L&L Glacier Creek remains in demand, with active trading. Marmot Metals is in strong demand with very few offerings. The management reports good progress with very satisfactory results. Local stocks closed as follows: Bid Asked LIQUOR LAW GETS FOUR IN TROUBLE (Oontinued from Page 1.) Josephine Ault and Bob Math- ieson of Hyder B. C, and Henry Rivard of Stewart, each plead guilty of unlawfully selling intoxicating liquor and each was fined $300 and costs. William Mitehell of Stewart plead guilty of having some beer in a premises not a private residence nor a guest room and was fined $50 and costs. In each case the Crown Prosecutor asked that the minimum sentence be imposed. Henry Rivard, who owns the building occupied by the government liquor store in this town, figures that the stools were sent all the way from Victoria to get back the money the Liquor Control Board had paid him as rent. He is taking steps to oust the Vendor Store and gain possession of the building for himself. He also claims he is marked as a special victim because he beat the case when they "picked on him before."
