"The sleamlKHit'trouble last week was on this side of the lake: now it is on tlie other," said a steamboat man .who came into The Cr,Ai.M oflice on Wednesday with trouble in'his eye, and after seating himself w out on to tell them: , "The John Jrvinjj Navigation Co.' own tlie tramway across the portage from Atliu Lake to Taku Citj���some two miles-���and no opposition boat can do business o\e'r this 1:01 tajju unless this is granted by tlie above company. Then again ,there is a wason] road that leads around. This vuiptou road is no new thins-, for it has been is use for months before the Irving Xnvijation Company took over the tramway. Mo-it of the freierht brought into Atliu has come over this wniroi: i oad, and the Iryiiir Navigation Coinpini} brought their Ireight that -way. Up to the present the tramwaj lias been used in a desultory manner, enrriiiijj lmjr-i iraao and small freijrht packages: now, it is claimed, everything i�� in shape tor larjrer freijrht to come over. In view ot tliis ami w ith the object of further cripplinj? any opposition that could possiblj come up, the head of this company went to Victoria some few weeks ajro, ami pre-empted this land. Ostensibly he went to'secure modification to existing trade conditions, but in reality it was to copper w hat ho had in hand. With his pre-emption, as heissaid to have brought buck with him, he ordered two men the early part cf the week to clear ground for a fence around the land and thus shut off the wag-on road to all competitors. "Aeeordingb the men were put work anil made \ery jrood pro;rres-,. "This brought the freighters to their senses and it is reported the matter was placed before the Commissioner and an order issued by him restrain;; the blocking of the road. "One ol the nion who did the chopping was from the Gleaner, and towards evening of the iirst day lie was accosted by sumo passers by as to whether he had a license. To this he replied in the negative, whereupon he w as asked if he w as aware tliat imprisonment awaited him for cutting timber w itli��� out a licen-sO. At thi-> he threw down the axo and stampede 1 to the boat. "I'd like to know," finished the narrator, '���if the John Irving Company can build a foucc around this country without a logger's license?"

The latest deal is the mining line is the sale of a controlling interest in the Caledonia group of claims to Victoria and Vancouver men���Tho-.. Dunn, H. H. .Skinner. John Irving, M. P.

PARSONS PRODUCE CO; -:o:- Ald. Ex- Skinner, of Vancouver, ��� presses His Opinion. The past week has seen a number of live business men in Atlin. These wore Thos.

Wilson; of Victoria. ..The-latter gout Ionian is one of the shareholders iu the Yukon & White Pass K. It. They are all unanimous- iu their opinions as to tlie possibilities of the district and say t hat next year will see activity iu every part of the district. '.'On the whole my impressions of the country are very good," said Mr. Skinner. "I caine up to look into some nll'airsjii connection with thc Atliu bake I.umber Co., and found tiiese iu a satisfactory condition. "I was treated to a clean-up on Sunday on 2 above on Pine creek, iu which fin interested, in company with W. I<\ Gibson, and the claim is certainly a good one, for the result was I'li ounces. This represented two men for throe days. The property was one of thc disputed ones and only purchased some few weeks ago. Mr. Skiuuer is not much impressed with legislation that keeps money out of the district, and only saw- one man iu his travels iu the. north in favor of tho Alien bill. "The Alien bill is the most, ill-advised piece of legislation ever passed in any country, and iiow can a men come here and not see its effect on every side?" Mr. Skinner went on. "Had it not been for that the population would have been 25,0CO. I see men with piecos of quartz everywhere, but us long as present conditions- exist, capital rt'ill not come in.

Thus docs it reply to the inane vaporings of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer: "Waa it a 'glittering generality' when the prime minister of England about a year ago informed the nations of Europe, at a time when there were indications of a movement to warn the United Stales to keep hands oflfCuba, IhatEngland would stand by the Uited States to the extent of lending us her navy��� that navy which gives the law to the oceans of the world?

' , Speeches, Football and Dancing Indulged In. Last Tuesday was a foto day for Willow creek and not'only Willow crook but Pino city, for inaiiy hundreds turned out in tho afternoon to celebrate t he completion of tho big-ditch, the property of the Willow Creek Miners' C'o-Opnrntivo Water Association. The ditch, like the name of tlio association, is a long one, winding its sinuous course along the hanks of I Mud for upwards 'of two miles, I ho intake being admirably situated ,'whoro tho waters of the crook aro narrowed by the converging, rock on either side. . On Tuesday afternoon ,(110 association gave a picnic and daucu, at which some hundreds enjoyed IhoniHelvos. Thu afternoon's' pleasure bogun. with a football mutch played on tlie grassy plains some two miles above Pino City, where diiino nature has provided au ideal play ground. Tho spectators woro trouto.l to an excellent exhibition of association football, tho two opposing teams being so well matched that tho gunie resulted iu a tic, no goals being secured by cither side. Photographs, both amateur and professional, wore busy taking pictures, and thc iirst football match played iu this district has mude a pennant impression iu more senses than one. The teams us they lined up were as follows: Capt. II. J. Richardson���Goal, Eiiuet; backs, Wright and Mclntyre; half-backs. Pinker- ton,'Leith and liainbri^l^et'forwards, Summons, Dalvy, Smith, Richardson and Griffith. Capt.

Alter football all hands trooped hack to the dancing platform, which had been erected on the sandy blull' immediately above the head of the ditch. Thc spotwus well chosen, as a good view of a large portion of the ditch, hcudgutes, etc., was obtainable, and so an idea of the work, the completion of which the picnic celebrated, was easily othoraudiict iu a co-operative spirit. Xu closing he wished tlio association overy suc- C0-IH. Mr. Pringlo said, like Mr. Caton,,lit/fell, he had a llddlor's bidding to speak. People seemed to think that w ith elorgyinen they only had to press a button and the speech would come. Rome few days ago while riding up Willow crock Ife had seen IM) men��� like all of us have been iu the past six months���in a holo, and he was glad to see them in the holo and right glad to see them out of it. lie believed that the men who do not wait, but do a thing thomsolvos whou there is need lor it to bo done aro the men who got on. lie hoped the ditch was only the beginning of nn era of prosperity in this district, and boliovod that if nil crocks emii- lutod tho siiine spirit shown by Willow that thn well being of the whole commuully wouhl bu assured, lor (he gold Was thorn and it, onlj required moil to help each,other and the 'riches of the. gravel would bn uncovered, lie congratulated the association and trusted that nothing but success would follow their cominondnblo enterprise.

To the secretary of the Willow Creek Miners' Co-Operative Water Association, Pine. " Sir���I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your very kind invitation to be present at the opening of the wuter ditch to supply .the miners with water on Willow creek and I regret very much that pressure of business elsewhere will prevent my accepting your very kind offer, whicli I very mtich regret. '-Iu the undertaking of the miners of Willow- creek, which is deserving of the highest praise, I might say that it is an example t'nat all the other creeks may well emulate. It is the old say ing "Unity is Strength," audi 11 your case it is exemplified. C might state ' tliut I have watched the work very closely from its inception and I must say that for the time occupied the work has been curried out in a skillful manner and without a hitch of ii'ij kind. Further, I have rarely sce-i a better lot of workmen in mylifewho wo.'he.l on the construction of said 'ditch and I Hatter in J self I know a little about digging trenches, having had two years military training in said work, under strict discipline, when a man is compelled to work. I sincerely trust that all J our expectations may be realized and that you all may reap the fruits of your labor and make a'stake so that you may enjoy yourselves this winter. Thanking you again for your kind invitation. Yours very sincerely, J. D. Gkaham, Gold -Commissioner. Letters of regret at inability to be present wore also acknowledged from C. W.Clifford, W. A. Spencer, and Magistrate Woods. Mr. Robinson then called on lion. Mr. Caton to address the meeting. In opening Mr. Caton humorously observed that British Columbia should adopt him, as more than once he had to take the place of an absent government official. However, he felt it tin honor to speak on such au occasion as this. He then proceeded to show- how dependent we are upon water, the important place it takes in the universe of matter and how it is a medium through which energy exerts itself. In inspiring language ho congratulated tho miners-of Willow- creek, as the promoters und the builders of the ditch and he prophesied that its usefulness would not be limited to Willow creek, but befor? long it would be extended past Pine city ind its waters used to wash tho The B building at Pine City to take tho place of tlieir present crumped quarters. The building will be 10x38 feet, and will he opposite to the present one. . Tlie .Enterprise Group Company was formed at Pine last Thursday and took over the Golden Leaf und Cracker Jack claims,.one half mile from discovery on Pine, above. James Miller, formerly of tho C. P.
