Important Change in Costs Made in the Elmore Plant DEFINITELY SETTLED Fort Simpson ta Be the Terminus. IMPROVEMENTS TO HARBOR Minister or Public Works Speaks Definitely on the Decision Made The Elmore mill on the Le Roj No. 2 is putting in an additional motor which will have thee Sect of considerably decreasing the oost of milling while at the same time it will increase the daily output. The Trent mills whioh were placed in the mill were discovered at the beginning of operations to take more power than was at first ezpeoted. In consequence the two oould not be run together at full capacity,making the output of the mill slightly under tbe estimated amount of 50 tons daily. By the additional of the new motor the mill be able to handle more than the estimated amount, say GO tons daily, But as the cost of putting through the present amount or the anticipated amount is almost identical^ can readily be seen that the cost per ton for milling will be considerably reduoed at a percentage whioh may be estimated as being between 15 and 20 per oent. Every improvement which Ib made in this plant will tend towards its adoption by other miues and consequently swell the output ol the camp and the number of miners employed.

London, Jan. 5.—There willbe an early session of the House whioh will oonsider the proposals whioh will be made by Chamberlain's tariff commissioners after they have drafted a provisional tariff for the use of the Empire. It is felt that no definite proposals will be allowed to stand without their having been first submitted to be various legislatures of the colonies. It is considered that Chamber lain is likely to be armed with extraordinary powers by the Balfour ministry and sent to the colonies on a world tour taking the preference tariff soheme drafted by a commission and reported upon by parliamentary oommittee with him for modification or alteration or suggestion from the outlying but important portions of the Empire.

Tokio, Jan. 5—It iB ourrently reported and the rumor would seem to bear the marks of authenticity, that the reoent transferal of troops to the ports on the western shores of Japan, together with the mobilization of the fleets at Sbim- onoseki, Moji and Nagasaki, has been done with a view of a sudden raid upon t'ie coal ports of the Russians who have been storing some small quantities at Newohang and other places. This may take place at any day, even belore hostilities have been finally deolared. Russia's delay in answering the Japanese note is put down to a wish to allow of her fleet, under orders from the Mediterranean, reaching Chinese waters. On the other hand the important ooaling points on the south and west of Japan, Kuohinotzu, Nagasaki, and Moji have been strongly fortified, Nagasaki in espeoial being regarded as impossible of approach.

JAMES H. FL.ETCHER.v3 QENERAL MANAGER! V, O. Box jn I Ulllllll, '.' JAPAN'S AIM. There is a treaty existing between the Empire and Japan. If the reason why it was made could be disclosed, it is probable that the reason of the present threatening attitude of Japan and of Russia in the Far East could be arrived at. But to get at that reason without authoritative utterance means a little diving into history. And there are four nations to be considered, China and Japan iu Asia and Russia and Great Britain in Europe aud Asia. Beginning with the laBt. After all the expansion of the Empire haB greatly grown out of her system of free imports. Ab nation after nation has shut its portals against British trade, io has the Old Country been foroed to seek new markets. There waB a time, in the early sixties, when Great Britain might have annexed at all events, South China. But Chinese Gordon expended his energies in the wrong direotion, bol Btering up the Manchu dynasty, instead of helping the Taepings, the Ming or Chinese party, who at the outset were wishful of English help and of Christian tenets. Great Britain oontented itself with dictating a treaty whic h admitted her goods at an import duty which averages five per cent on most goods, with the exoeption of opium, the duty on whioh is over 50, reckoning iu the Likin or ootroi. The consequence was that Franoe encroaohed to the south, shutting up Annam against British trade.atid Russia has done similarly with Manchuria with Germany struggling for a permanent footing ou the borders of the Yellow sea. In other words the polioy has been a failure. Russia is not seeking bo much for trade as for a port and a population. Siberia h vast, but sparsely peopled. There is scarcely an ice free port in the Russian domain, large as it iB, with the exception of those on the Euxine, which in turn are blocked by Constantinople. Hence the fomentation of troubles in the Balkans with the ultimate aim of freeing the Euxine ports, the pushing south through Persia, with the side demonstration againBt India, in order to reach the ocean through the Persiwi Gulf. Again blocked by Great Britain by the annexation of the territory of the people bordering on the narrowest portion of that Gulf, Russia tries an outlet to the east and thinks Bhe finds it in Korea. If Russia could dominate China in the future as the Manchus have done for the past three centuries, Bhe would get her population, and a vast industrial population it would be too. Japan in the past was dominated by China. But it was long ago, and the veracious Jap historians strenuously deny that suzerainty whioh China haB olaimed at one time or another over every contiguous country. Korea for ages has beeu a bone of contention betweeu China and Japan. Japan has organized itself. It is a reconstructed and an ambitious country. But it haB a large reBpect for the possibilities of China, none for its military capabilities as at preBeut di rected. Japan sees that Great Britain is not wishful of annexing China. If Chamberlain's polioy goes through there will not be the same incentive to expansion. France is too insignificant in the Orient, as likewise Germany, to consider. But Russia has ambitious claims, clearly enough read by the little brown man. If there is to be a power dominating China- that power is to be Japan, not Russia. With Japan at the helm of the state of China, there would be suoh a powerful Eastern alliance, that must give pause to ihe rest of the world. Will China consent? China is ruled by a foreign dynasty even more alien than would be the Japs, the Manchus. There is a very general dissatisfaction. When South China heard of the fight in North China against the Japs, South China viceroys absolutely refused to help'with men or money. Was not North China the home of the hated Manchu? Does not a Cantonese hate a Pekingese worse than he does the foreign devil? Years of unsuccessful and bloody insurrection has taught China the uselessness of revolt against the Manchu. But the dis respect in whioh China iB held does not help the Celestial to acquiesce in the domination of his foreign rulers. Could, therefore, Japan succeed in beating Russia, it is quite on the cards that China would Buhmit to be under its tutelage, the more especially if such counsels, counsels that amounted to directions, brought back China to its old position of being the power of the East. Now if Japan can succeed iu her end, Great Britain can have no objeotion. Russia will be shorn of all prestige, and the Empire will have a grateful and enlightened friend who will gladly give a preference in one of the largest markets of the world. Without a friend to create a diversion, without a base the Germans must leave Shantung and the French becomes tenants at will of Annam and Siam, Asia will be divided between Japan and the Empire as to population, and Russia will be confined, without an outlet, to the sandy wastes of Central Asia and the frozen tundra of Siberia. In other words the battle of Armageddon takes no place iu Europe, but may be impending in the Far East. For if Russia fights and loses, the Empire will be lefl without a rival on the face of th.e globe. <ml- « ts-**-. For Women, Misses arid Children.
