M. Michaels and Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Durling, of Detroit. Messrs Durling and Michaels are interested in the mills at Port Simpson, which are being put in shape preparatory to starting up work there. It has been necessary to put new posts under the building and to make general improvements there. Tlie mill, which was erected by John Plewin some years ago, has been kept In as goon' order as possible, but some overhauling Is necessary before starting up. It Is likely lhat work will begin very early in the year. Mr. Durling Is leaving in a day or two for the east, and will not return until sometime 'n Ihe new year. Mr. Michaels will remain In charge of the undertaking. Mr. Durling, who has long been Interested in milling works, has visited Alice Arm where quite extensive timber limits have been secured. He Is well pleased with the prospects. It is now contemplated to put in a mill at Alice Arm, which is looker! upon as likely to develop into a good i mining town of several hundred inhabitants. The timber Ihere Is spruce, hemlock, cedar and larch, and of good quality. The site for the mill, that Is proposen', has been practically agreed upon. With respect to Prince Rupert, however, these men have quite an extensive plan in view, which will be carried out they hope as the business develops. A box factory is one of the ends aimed at, provided a suitable location is obtained. The box making would, it is explained, take care of a lot of the lumber that might otherwise be wasted. The demand Is ever Increasing for this, not only locally, but also abroad, and where the tongneing and grooving of narrow lumber can be done with expedition so as not to entail too much labor, there is hela' to be a profit in shipping even to the old country, when cheap water transportation Is available. Mr. and Mrs. Durling will, in the summer, move here and take up their headquarters in this city, and take charge of the development work that is in view.

"Our daily expenditure is at present $25,000,000," said Mr. Brand, "or $9,000,000,000 per annum. Our normal revenue is $1,000,000,000 per annum.

Ilaggen, editor of the Mining and Engineering Record, in an address before the members of Ihe American Club in Vancouver recently. Some of the facts brought out by him, having so intricate a relation to the mining in this district make most encouraging reading locally. "The United States has always boasted of their big things," he said, "but the developments of the past year have proved that one copper mine in this Province has assets which would pay the entire cost of running the machinery of the United States Government, including its civil, army and navy lists for a year and then have a substantial balance over." "Another mine has been developed, the profits on which would entirely repay the capitalization of the company, amounting to $5,500,000. "British Columbia now has Ihe two largest copper.smelters in the British Empire, and one of its copper mines ranks among the leading copper mines of the world. Not only is the production great, but Ihe Province has achieved the reputation of producing copper al the lowest cost of any on the American continent, and a new discovery is now reported which bids fair to rival all the discoveries of tbe past. "Tlie year jusl ended has seen the Inauguration of arrangements for thc addition of new mettalurglcal inn'us- (rl of great Importance namely, the refining of zinc and the e'ectrolytic refining of copper. people of this Province have been absolutely indifferent to the vast natural resources of minerals they possess." BRITAIN'S HI HDEN. (Continued trom Page One.) ance of $7,000,000,000 must be raised by loan one way or another. Canada recently subscribed $50,- 000,11011. How great is our burden may be realized from 'the fact that that sum would Inst us 48 hours. Canada has a population of approximately 8,000,000 people. England' 48,000,000. On n basis of population to meet the British expenditure, you would have to raise $.".0,000,000 every 10 days. England's national In- come is $11,000,000,000 per annum. The Government is expending $9,- 000,000.000, so you see it is expending practically all the income. With figures like this it is difficult to pursue the soundest financial methods. "The big question is how long can we do this or can we do it indefinitely? This, we have been often told, is a war of exhaustion. The vital (thing is the actual production of things within the country. A nation that is self-supporting would never be stopped fighting for want of money, so long as the people had confidence in the government ano would take their I. O. U's. But In buying from abroad yon must pay in something of real vaule. We must produce more and cut down our expenditure. "Up to the war England's imports were $75D,000,000 more than exports. The difference is now in excess of $2,000,000,000 a year. This figure does not take into account government purchases. A rough guess would put the Government purchases at $1,000,000,000 per annum. We must meet this difference, and, of course, it means a great burden to the British people. We must be self- sufliclng and what we have to purchase abroad' we must buy from nations that are willing to lend us money. Our potential resources are really inexhaustible and we could go on forever if we can apply them. "As t0 the question whether or not Canada can do anything to help, I realize Canada's difficulties. She has not our great resource of wealth in foreign debt. Secondly, her expenditure is growing rapidly and she must next year meet the great debt of maintaining her armies. Thirdly, her wealth. Is not liquid like Great Britain's. Fourthly, you have not developed the machinery of credit to the extent we have. You have not a central reserve hank, or discount market or treasury bills system. "On Ihe olher hand, indications are i favorable. You are getting a balance I in your favor on your trade. You are "The dividends patd by ihe mines or British Columbia to date for this Increasing your liquid capital.

(Continued from page one) mates the force, and the optimism which permeates the staff, both British and French. Coming away from a chat with him, one felt to have taken a quick action tonic, and to be able to combat the influences here which (lamp our too few enthusiasms. He is here for ten days' leave, and one of the first points to which he alluded was the question of leave for the men of the rank and file. "In a short time," he snid, "all the men of my division will have hud leave, and Ihe idea is (o continue to give eight or ten days leave, every three months. It is found that tho men are kept fully up to the mark in every way, when 'hey know that their dangerous labors will he terminated periodically', and that they will be able to spend a few days in London or in the country." .lust at the time General Currie was leaving for his ten nays' leave, the trenches were getting very hor- rlble on account of the bad climatic •conditions. With the experience gained earlier in Hie war, however— save in exceptional circumstances, such as sudden floods and thaws— they are looking forward to a much better time than last year. All the experiences and lessons have been turned to account, and the question of the conditions in the trenches receives constant care and attention from the commanding officers The Canadians concerned in the dashing action which was the subject of Field-Marshall French's despatch was a small party of the 7th British Columbians, which' went out in the Messines district, and forcea' a front trench of the Germans in brilliant style. The great advantages in such affairs is, of course, not only the gaining of a few acres of land or the capturing of an enemy trench, though actions of this kind are always undertaken when there is something definite in view, as for instance, to stop enfilading fire, or to secure some particularly valuable higher ground. But quite apart from any considerations of that kind, they are instrumental In keeping the men in high spirits, in increasing their morale the sense of superiority over the enemy is emphasized, and the cheering effect of such an action spreads to the whole division. On the enemy the effect is precisely the reverse, so that the gain is two-fold. Thai there is a desire to emulate these dashing successes goes without saying. Tlie Canadians share to the fn'I the objection to the prevailing dendlock, ana' desire nothing better than to move the enemy. The principal complaint is that they cannot get at them in the old style, though the men now realize, jusl as much as do the generals, lhat the system of fighting has changed, and that il would be sheer madness to fight in the open. It is now generally recognized that in Ihe earlier engagements, the heavy losses were really due to the excessive zeal of tlie Canadians in actions where the men declined to recognize the Inevitable"! actions, by the way, which give the material for the most glorious pages of British military history. Even now with all the lessons before them, the Canadians have to i>" kept In tight check, for, as one Cnnadinn officer said, "it is sheer suicide to do the things thai many Canadian fighting men demand to no," \^ to supplies for the Canadian soldiers, General Currie said that all the general needs of the men are fully provided for In the way of food. What they do nol get In the ample rations served out to them, are the cakes, chocolates, puddings, and other "til-hits" of which most of tinmen are Inordinately fond. Another very useful thing at any time, and particularly in this cold weather, is meat essences which can he made warm, and, carried in a Thermos flask, kept warm for many hours in the trenches.
