The property to change hands this time is the well known Republic group, situated on Erin mountain, and two miles from town. Dave Sutherland and Tom Montgomery were the owners, having held the claims for five years. Em braced in the group are the Republic, American Eagle, Bonanza and Bell claims. Early last week C. Dempster, of Rossland, visited tho property, having been prevailed On by W. Harris. A thorough inspection was made and the deal closed. It waa for cash and amounts to several thousand dollars, though t.ho exact consideration is held private. Work will be com menced on thc property as early as possible in the spring and continued throughout the summer.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 15th, 1901. KUITOIUAI. CKOl'I'l-Nl-S. Two proviucial bye-elections will .take place next week, to fill the va cancies existing in Nanaimo and Vancouver. Nominations tako place on Monday and tho olections next ,-dfsy. In Nanaimo a Labor candidate is sure of election to succeed Ralph ,Sfnlth, whilo Vancouver may be counted in the same column, :.We have our first apology to offer, aud It .Is all on account of our ' 'in- sides." Something has gone wrong with the works and they haven't shown up, hence the attenuated ap •pearance of this issue. It ia a bum- looking rag, we admit; but it would ^bo bummer were it twice as bum. My, what those fellows on the big i-Nelson dailies have to be thankful ;forl ^Ln element of moro than ordinary interest will enter into the opening •aeremomes of the legislature at Vic 4torla next Thursday, by the attend "ance ofthe B.C. members of the various contingents of Canadian troops .sent to South Africa. The govern mentis paying tbe expenses of all the khaki-clad boys, who are to act as the guard of honor. It is a com mendable idea. A mighty struggle is going on between the Great Northern and Cana- 1 tfian Pacific railways over the Crow's Nest coal deposits. The lifj of the B. C. smelting industry—and, practi •oally, that of mining itself-^depends '-upon the guarding of these importstnt natural resources for the Canadians. X)ur governments should encourage borne industries and not build up the trade of a foreign country. B. C. ought to imitate Ontario and conserve to her own peoplo the great wealth wherewith nature has endowed her, rbut not to the fostering of monopoly. Robert McPherson Is tho Labor candidate in the provincial bye •election in Vancouver, made neces aary by the resignation of James Garden. McPherson has subscribed to the Martin platform and the oppo "sition will accordingly give him its support. There is no doubt of Mc* ' Pherson's election, but it is a pity he could not have been prevailed on tu aland out prominently as a Labor advocate without fusion with another party. Joe Martin's predilections for i the Labor cause are recognized, but there is too much taint of old party sbmi about him and his followers. As was proven in thu Foley election in this constituency, the workingman has done with the old order of things. All British subjects throughout the jprovinco will, with tho members of the Miners' Union, deeply appreciate ■the resolution printed in another col- ,umn, and issued from the hall ofthe Randsburg Miners' Union, No. 41, of .Kandsburg, Cal. True and heartfelt 'sympathy Is expressed with the B.C. Unions for the loss of our beloved ■Queen, Victoria, demonstrating a noble principle perineal ing the min- ';*ers' organization. To many this .friendly testimony to the loyalty of -ihe Unions will come ns a surprise, as tho popular liclief in certain cir- -sales has been quite to the contary. "Time, however, is a great leveler of prejudice, and soon It will become an accepted fact that Unionism in this yprovince, particularly where it concerns the miners, is indicative of every right principle that goes to "inakc up a loyal, progressive and united people. Ever since thc fateful Jabor struggle of two years ago, public opinion regarding the Unions has '•undergone a great change, and sus picions and doubts have been proven 'unwarranted. Unionism means loyalty and advancement, but never .anarchy and riot. The Randsburg ' miners realize this, hence their condolences to fellow members of a foreign clime in an hour of national sorrow. , DRILL POINTS. • Subscribe for The Drill.
