ONE REMEDY. We are glad to notice that the miners��of Atlin district are alive to the necessity of doing- something forthwith toward the settlement of disputes. relating to the claims on the creeks in the, district ' We understand that a meeting'is' called for this afternoon to discuss the feasibility ,of a plan that has been sug gested to establish a board of arbi- , tration which will have power to settle all disputes between the miners in relation to their claims, both ,as to the title aud as to the manner of working - them. The provisions of the Arbitration' Act make tliis remedy quite available and it only needs the consent of the great body of the miners to make it a complete success. If the miners get together and agree to settle their differences by means of arbitration they will not be obliged to wait for a judge to come up who will probably not arrive until the beginning of July and who will not be able to hear and decide all the cases before the season has, passed. If the miners are compelled to wait for the judge a great many of the claims will not be worked, for the simple reason that the title to them cannot be cleared iu time to work them this summer. If, .cu the other hand, they select a competent board of arbitrators who could get to work at once, the title to the claims will be properly settled by experienced men who would view the ground and their lawful owners will have the satisfaction of being able to resume work at once on their holdings. We are in hearty sympathy with the movement aud l>elieve that not only the miners themselves, but the whole people of Atlin will benefit enormously by the carrying out of the scheme. If it is decided to go ahead with the arbitration the personnel of the lx>ard should l>e such as will inspire confidence. ' Tlllv LAMENT OF THE LORN ONE.

Asked as to his opinion of the latter he said that for about three miles the creek ran through a flat country, the valley being very wide. He prospected u> hydraulic proposition by sinking a shaft to bedrock and found blue clayventending all along the rock. "I found one st reuk of gravel about 2U feet high and prospected it from top to bottom. Colors were found but they would not warrant tho , expenditure iu working. I prospected three crook claims that had been partly opened up beforo, without good result. ITho bodrock in that vicinity is swept hard and clean in most places. How over,'I think more of the creek about tvv o and a half miles further up, above the mouth of Slato crook, as it is more contracted. .In fact'Dr. Bunion'showed me a good prospect. From his place to the head the stream has a butter full. The ground here can bo handled more profitably as bed- rook is not very (loop. There ure'good opportunities here for turning the crock back on tho Hats while working the bod. Dixie creek continues from this place for a distance of over 25 miles to Atlin lake and I should judge there would be good paying places in parts of it us it lies in the gold bolt." "I visited Pine uud Spruce during ray short stay.' The ground being covered with snow aud not many claims being developed I cannot pass an intelligent opinion, although I think there must be "a great may. paying claims ou these creeks. / Instead of being shallow diggings, as represented by so many, " I find on the contrary that they are very- deep in many places, uud, iu fact, will be very- hard to handle on account of there being al-' most no milluble timber along the creeks to lie hud, which will absolutelj forbid miners from Uuming." " ' "! "I think there will be some good hydraulic proposition* "found. A greut number huve already been staked, but not yet prospected ou account of the snow and ice on the ground." "I visited McKee creek and vvus well received by the miners. This creek I am happy to bay is going to turn out a lot of gold. Different minors showed me great results from very little v\ ork. The North Star coin- puny have taken out .>95 from a piece of a ditch about -15 feet long. The whole work could have been done in two days bj two men under reasonable conditions.

AH the gold secured so far is from tho gravel, bedrock being reached ut only one spot on one of the rims, the result proving good. I saw men ��� who had great hopes of Eldorado, a promising brunch running into McKee." "I am highly pleased with tho rock formation in this country, it being highly mineralized at pluces. I huve ulso run across iu my short stay here a. few quartz stringers, beautiful looking bluish rock that is liable to carry gold. I hud ho facilities for prospecting them us I did not go out for thut purpose.

Notico is hereby- jriven that a miners' meeting will be held in Atlin this afternoon ut 3 p. in, for the purpose of discussing the best and speediest method of settling all disputes in relation to claims in the Atlin district, in order that owners of claims may be enabled to commence work as soon us possible. All persons concerned are expected to attend. Chas. W. D. CUFFOIII), M. P. P. for Cassiar District. Atlin, May 8th, 1895). Chas. W. I). Clifford, M. P. P., recently made a tour of inspection of McKee creek. To u reporter he said the creek w us verjuice looking from a miner's point of view. He visited nearly ul) the claims that were opened up and found the prospects ou the eluy vcrv good, the find being coarso gold and likely to bring 818 an ounce. There are at present about three sluice heads of water in the creek. From the mouth of Eldorado down to about 15 below discovery, u distance of say three miles, the indications are most fuvorublo. The chief drawback is the heavy boulders which lay thick on the surface. The claj, if permitted to get into the sluices will steal away the gold. No one has yet reached bedrock. If, vv hen they get through the clay, they strike gravel reaching to bodrock. the pay will be very rich. Not much reul prospecting hud been done us yet, bi t preparations were being make ull along the creek to commence active w ork as soon as the weathor becomes a little warmer. Mr. Clifford thinks there are two and a half miles of Pine that will pay from wages to 2\j. ounces per man. Of course there may be spots thut will prove much richer than this. Spruce creek is very deep with the exception of some benches ut the low or end. There may be a good run of gold when bedrock is reached. He hus greut fuith iu this district us a quartz country, especially in free milling ore. It is easy to prospect and should receive a good overhauling this season. "'Mining is the essence of Atlin's existence, Pine is the stopping stone to the rich soil ut its buck, aud the governmental cord tying up the claims iu thut vicinity is the third and only dismal feuture of our district," snid n prominent uniting mini v ostordnv vv ho OUR BANKS. The indications of prosperity in uny town or citj are v ery varied. .There Is no surer sign of faith in the future of a place than the opening of a chartered bank, and w hen in a town the size of Atlin three of the leading bunking institutions of Cunada open their doors for business' it shows that those vv ho take the greatest pains to investigate have good grounds, for large expenditure in the inception of their undertakings. The first of.these to begin business in Atlin was the Merchants' Bunk of Halifax, then came the Canadian Bank _of Commerce and shortly ufter the Bank of British North Americu. From the beginning they have hud enough business to justify the venture, for ufter ull it was u venture, und there ure evidences of increasing business from du> to duy. SV. A. Spencer w ith his stuff of genial ussistunts of the Merchants' Bunk hits from tlie first been u most popular und obliging manager uud hus vv on the good opinion of thut portion' of the commercial community thut bus given its business that way. The Canadian Bunk of Commerce is one of the leading financial concerns of Canada und in this western country hus been bold in its enterprises and here und in Duwson und the upper British Columbia country litis been well rewarded tor its pluck. .Mr. Billet's management bus been characterized by good common sense und has commanded the confidence of our young mining metropolis. Tho offices ure well equipped and well attended. The Bank of British North America having been lust in is having its share und doing a good busines. When they move into their new quurters on the corner of Peurl und Second streets opposite the new post-office, vv here the wise manager hus been fortunate iu securing u building site, there is no doubt that Mr. Anderson and his stall' will do a good share of the bunking business of the Atlin district. j; STOREY, Wholesale Dealer in Saddlery, Horse Clothing, 1 Pack Saddles, Etc., Etc. k Hastings Street, Vancouver, B.

"Im going to Atlin to mine und w ork w hut- ever claims I can get hold of," said a plucky Canadian girl of blondish hue und hundsome carriage, on one of the Seattle's trips north before she broke her shaft. The speaker in question is ut present in Atlin. "The Provincial law regarding aliens is certainly untenable," she continued, ut the sume time throwing back her head b.v way of emphasis, "and when tho good people of the oust ure mude acquainted with its workings'twill be knocked higher than Andree's balloon. I was born and bred in old Ontario and purpose enjoying all tho rights of a free born Briton. My husband is an American and what he is deprived of by virtue of nu- fionulity I'm going to make good for him. The step I propose taking is no idle fancy, for I have obtained legal udvice, both iu the United States and British Columbia und without dissenting voice I huve been told thut 'once a British subject always a British subject.' Armed with this v, eupon I propose taking his place on Spruce, Pine or any other creek'111 the north." "Well, yes; I will do the prospecting and bo the nominal head, though experienced miners will be in the purty." "How ubout the license; will it be in jour husband's name or your alienuted Canadian one?" put in one of her own sex. seated by her side. She paused a moment, searched the questioner and then fell back into her easy chair, exclaiming: "T'll let vou know when T got 1 hei-(>." STAR Second Street. Frksh Baked Bread Daily.
