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-

The mix 01 the entire problem

"In whom is the ownership and
the control ol the bridge lo be
vested;"' It is believed Lh.it
were this item satisfaclorilv adjusted, the bridge would be as
good as an accomplished (act.
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

that a more definite reply would
be made through the estimates

exception to the rule.   The large

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.

Editor The Kxpress,
Su,-On Tuesday, tin- 2filh of
l.tiiuarv, a pulilie BMttiB| was
called liv. the mayor, to which
the citi/cus ol North Yatuutiu-r
were inviteil, to iliseuss the ler-
rv siliiation existing at that
tune. It was .understood that
the meeting had baca called at
llu- instigation of Mr. t'.ill.ivho

it was understood that the cili-

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.
In view of this oiler, the cili-
/clis dei tiled tO reipiest  the city

to  reporl   the  results of  their
negotiations .it .1 meeting, to be
I "held   on   Tuesdav,   the   :nd   of
February.
The intelilion was thai    llial
meeting should receive 1 report

whether sbj thing had bean  bi
ciiinplishi'd  ill  the direitioii   nl

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
