North Yakuouvkr, Fib. 5, 1909 BRIDGE DELEGATION The iiii-tiibers of the delegation which Interviewed the provincial government on Friday last, with reference lo a subsidy for the Second Narrows bridge, are unanimous in their appreciation of the cordial reception accorded tlieiu in all ipiarlers. The previous plan laid out by the delegation was devised with a view to presenting the salient leattiri's ol the proposition, in a iiuiiise and loriefitl manner, and while the order decided upon was soiuiiiliat disarranged during the course of the interview, the opinion is held thai the whole ellect of the case was not ni.iii-riallv affected thereby. The executive council met the delegation and was addressed by Mayor Douglas ol Valium ver, Mayoi Ha; "i North Vaa- 1 ouver, Reeve McNaught oi North Vain ..uver district, and IC. H. Heaps, president ol the Vam inn er board of trade. The premier and the other members ol the exeiiilive entered hcartilv into the ii.lisi.leralioii ol the di- flcrtill phases of the ptojei t.atld while lhe attendant difficulties Were 111 m. wise lost to view, it was evident that the disposition ol the government was di- liiledly laiorable, and that those dtllutiltics were cited in older thai every feasible method which might overcome tliiin might In- brought to light.

It was upon some proposed solutions of this difficulty thai the premier lound it seceeaary to express himself with considerable diTniiiettess, questioning iheir feasibility, As the interview advanced, it became evident that the plan 111..st acceptable to the government is that of a bridge,provin- ciallv owned and controlled,but thai, at the same time, lhe government was not prepared to give any assurance that the en- lire cost would be assumed bv the provincial treasury. The dominion government has al- ttady voted a subsidy of $2do,- 000 toward the building of a bridge, and the intimation was conclusively carried to the minds of the delegation that il that subsidv could be made to applv to a provincial railway Wallace Shipyards, Limited,desiring to have the necessary Idling done as ipiickly as possib and seeing an opportunity to secure the deepening of the water in front of tlieir ways at the same time, made application to the local Liberal BSBOCi- ation to have the King Edward, then lying idle in the Fraser river, sent around to do the work. The association promptly passed thc requisite ibboIu tion, forwarded il through tin* proper channels, and nothing further was heard until llie dredge appeared. II lllis rivill Bean upon the part of the g->< - eminent lo assist North Vancouver iind tin- north shore will but extend itself to the granting of the bridge subsidv to a pro vincially owned structure, lie* municipalities concerned will be highly gratified indeed, The sessions of city councils do not, as a rule, rise above the prosy stage, and arc usually not particularly interesting to the and irallic bridge, the local gov-1 citizens, except as some mallet ctnitietit would take lhc work in I mav be under consideration in hand, lt was further intimated that a more definite reply would be made through the estimates lor litis session.

Pronounced activity is to be noted in mining circles relative lo the mineral resources adjacent to Nortli Vancouver, and the coming summer gives every assurance of being the must lively vet experienced in whai is destined to be one of the most Important camps in British Columbia. It is seitii-oHiiiallv given mil that the Tvee Mining iV Smell ing Co., operating ou Valiiouver Island, have secured control of the Swayne group ol claims, at the head of Lynn creek, and are prepared tn operate the propertv on an extensive si ale lt ii*' stated that loo men will be engaged within the nexl ho days and every eflort made lo put the group on the permanent shipping list. A thorough lesi and examination was aaderta- ken bv the Tvee people and ihey are well satisfied with the result. A diamond drill has proven up the ore bodies, ami il will lie further used to prove up newer ground. The development work being done at the mine has demonstrated the ore bodies lo be permanent, while the values are steadily improving with depth. The ore is a copper gold proposition and several thousand tons have alrca.lv been blocked out. The product of the mine will be handled by electric tramline down the valle\ to tidewater at Burrard Inlet, whence it will be taken in barges to the company's smelter at Ladvsmith. There is every indication of the property tuning out one of the biggest propositions in the province. On the west fork of Seymour creek, in close proximity to the B mk of Vancouver group, Capt. Cates and associates pusses a wonderful deposit of copper- gold ore, under the name in the woodland group. This property has lately come under the I ml ral ol a syndicate of capitalists in Glasgow, Scotland. A I und has been taken nn the group, after a comprehensive teal of the ure had been made, together with an examination oi the claims. An inquire has just been received Iron- the lompain, as to the depth of snow on the creek, and whether it is possil.l. t.. lake in supplies. They are anxious to commence development immediately and, ones started, will continue same in an energetic manner. The iiun- paliy had also figured on plans for constructing a tramline, to connect the property wiih a shipping point mi Howe Bound. Tlieir attention, however, has been drawn to the advertised plans of the projected electric line up Si'viiiuiir creek from Nortli Vancouver, which, when built, will pass within a stone's throw of their ground. The cumpaiiy has sent KM Copies oi lite map recently published In The Express, giving an outline uf the route of the prnpused line. The railway will save the cuin- pany a large amount of money relative to a tramline, and il will give them a splendid outlet for shipping ore. The Scotch bonders aaserl ilu\ will put the propert) oa a shipping basis as quickly as possible. PRIZE POULTRY Mrs. II. L.

It was .understood that the meeting had baca called at llu- instigation of Mr. t'.ill.ivho teas Latere vd in thi promotion iu .1 new ferrv company to eoiitiiete with the Norlh Ynti- ...tivi-r Ferrv aNi Power Co., bat it was understood that the cili- ■elis were u|)ett in express llieir views btaly Bad idopl whatever resolutions might totwead theinselves to tilt-lit with regard to the ferry service The directors of the Norlli Y.inuiuver Ferry & Tower Co. iv ite present, anil subject to confirmation by llieir shareholders Hindi- a definite oiler nl certain of tha assets oi the mm- |ialiv, which thev were prepared in submit to the nty council.

The intelilion was thai llial meeting should receive 1 report it..111 the city council, ,.s tO whether sbj thing had bean bi ciiinplishi'd ill the direitioii nl arranging for the purchase oi a portiofl of the N V Ferrv I Poller Co.'l assets In lhe city, II nothing had lieen .n...|)l|ilisll ad, according to the reaolution passed, tha qaaation ol nsgotist* ui)* (or llu* citv In aid in supporting the establishment ol a new ferrv serviie, were tO he ...nsiihred at the meeting, At ihe wme liiiie, tin- meeting a- naiiilliollsly expressed itself di - finitely in lavor of ultimate municipal control of the set iiie. On Mondav evening, the mayor atiliiiittiied that the lUCCtiBg ..[ tin- citi/ens, arranged for tha tad of Fchtuarv, would not he held. I do not know whv this announcement was in.,.1,-, us the resolution simply called lor a report as t" whether the citv had done anything or nothing in the direction Indicated, .nni .1 I. port [rolii the iitv COUSCil to the meet ilie; that BOthiflg had heen done would have heen ut order, and could have heen ,1. t ed upon. Relying upon tin- mayor's statement ih.it no meeting Would lie held iw lliiil 11,is dul, announced by the mayor in the newspapers 1, I, myself, and many other citi/i-ns did not attend ;it the pavilion on Tuesdav evening. It transpires now, from reports of the local papers, thai in spite of the announcement of the mayor, a small meeting was held, and opened by the mayor himself, at which most of the citizens who were present at the meeting of the previous week were not present. The promoters, however, of the new ferry coinpanv were presenl, with some of their friends, ainl harmless resolutions were passed with regard to the formation of the new Ierry company. The question of municipal ownership, which had lum I,.- vorablv decided upon bv the previous meeting, was, accord ing to the reports, set aside as being contrary to the views of the meeting, Owing to the statement of the mavor as to the postponement of the meeting, its nsolu tiotis cannot in- regarded .is in .HIV sense expressing *|u. views of the majority of the citt/eiis, although the second meeting constitutes technically an adjourned continuation of the first. The second meeting,lum cur, was adjourned at the call ol the chair, and I wish to poinl out that it is ol imperative Importance that tin- matt- lag so adjoin in-il should be called at the earliest pnssible nm ment; and I trust that this mil be done, The dangers which lie behind thi' control of our ferry serviie bv .1111 uinipaiiv, eiittrelv in depend) ut ol municipal control, in ven gnat, although it Would occupy too iiuiiii ol volir ■ pace to enlarge upon them in ihis communication< Tin- thoroughly justifiable dis s.itlslaitton iiiiii the V V l'u 11 ,\ l'owet 1 o serviie should llol be allowed to inllucnic our ilti-ins to commit llli-llisckis to the support of a mw company, iiiiii..ut anv guarantee thai, in uiiirse of time, lhe interests oi the residents mav not ..gain become subservient to the supposed interests ol the share holders in a private company, This result, in the case of a pri- i.ile coinpanv, is not onlv possible, bui probable, it is no reflection mi the promoters ..I the new coinpanv to stale this fact, as ii will be undoubtedly their duly, if the loinpaiiv is iBBfhad without anv municipal restrictions, ta take whatever line of action may besl serve the interests of their Blafthol ders, regardless ,,| th, ...nveiii enie ol the residents.
