"The proposed reserve and park is' to extend from the mouth of lha Yukon river,, a great distance on each side "of the river', to the. eastern boundary of Alaska.

Tha-Provincial Mineralogist Says Cariboo 'Was'Only Just Been , Touehed," ' ' ' The Provincial Mineralogist dur- ing the past summei paid an official visit to the Caiiboo district, and, according to interviews, was much im.oiessed with what he'saw theie. Tu speaking of his visit, the Ash- croft Journal remaiks: " We are very glad the Mining ( D:p iitniiiit are beginning to realize the fact that there is a mining section called Cariboo in the Province." A'.h 1," like , Cariboo, .is ofFOie b��ate<i tr.ul and has vilfeied .it the - ha.'ds ofthe Government fioni lack of official "write-ups,"'hut there is reason lo believe that Mr. Roher- son will include Atliu in his "list of \isitatioi s" next.year, r ^t Of Cariboo, Mr. Robertson'says: "The past season's .work in the Cariboo district has been retarded by the lack of water, which .is all essential in hydraulic mining? For- five years past the snoWfall and rainfall of the country 'has' been gradually diminishing, so--.that hvdraulic o derations have been cause 1'isntly -im i.iired. The percentage of sno.v and rainfall ijj a hydraulic camp is the exact measure of-pioduction, granting "that the gold is tliere, and in consequence the light returns from Cariboo tin- season nriy be laid to the lack lol walti " Fio'm Mr. Robertson's observation*., there is 110 lack of gold, therefore it follows that'only1 a sufficient head of water is're- ciuiied to win it. _ _ ,> . At Slough creek, Mr Robertson found the most pio.nising indications of successful mining. Mr J.' Hopp, who is in charge ofthe work, has done-wonders in the direction of developing the company's property. A shaft has been sunk for 300 feet, from which drifting has been done for 12,99 feet, aud trom the end of the drift he has broken up to the old river channel, where the gold lies. This is a remarkable recognition on the part of a miue manager of natural conditions, where so many have fjiled to recognize them. Ou the Liard property, Philip Fraser.'who formerly managed the Miccene, is sinking a new fchaft which in all probability will strike pay gnu el. Taking all in all, Mr/Robertson sayi, the Cariboo dictrict has only been touched. Parental Devotion: - Christmas 1902.

' The following * extract,' from- a valued exchange, gives some' idea ^of the efforts put forth, by the Dominion Government in the Yukoii'with the view, to assist in', opening 'up that coitnti>���*: ''������,'"' ; "The Canadian "Government has shown a very active inteiest in the welfaie of-th'e gold-mining industry at Klondike this year,-and personal visits to these goldtields' have'been paid both by the Deputy Ministei ofthe Interior ^ and also, by the Government 'Diiector of ' Mines. 'Appreciating the importance of tostermg the quartz.'minii.g indtis tiy, the Government, Mt is undei- siood? has decided to put up a -.mall stamp test mill b\ which the mineis will" be enabled to sample tlieir ores at the lowest-possible cost. As the 'lowest price is given at $18 a ton, it will be seen that quartz miuiug-in the Yukon is still a very-costl} operation,, and onh high grade deposits can be touched at present, but the" benefit' of the Government's action win be appreciated w hen one learns that private mills at"Dawson ' are charging, as much .as $ too' per" ton. .Another way in which the Government will assist the miner is by supplying a number of diamond drills for prospecting purposes' ��� which"' can be hired at a very moderate rent. By this means new terrjtoiy can ,be quicklv and cheaply .prospected, aud assisted by the Government iu this, piactical manner, it is autici- pated lhat mining activity in the Canadian Yukon will be ver\' largely increased."
