During the session of the Legislature of '99-1900, a charter was granted to J. A. Mara, ex M.P., F. S. Barnard, ex M.P., and Capt. John Irving, ex M.L.A., to construct and operate a line of railway from some suitable point on Kiti- maat Inlet, iu the Coast district, to Hazelton on the Skeena river. Anplication is this session to be - r c made for a': extension of this charier from Hazelton, by the most reasonable and . feasible route to a point at or near .the. Northern boundary line of the Province of.B. C, at or near Teslin lake or Atliu lake, or both, ancl also from said Hazelton, by the most reasonable and feasible route to a point at or near the Eastern boundary line of the.. Province, via the Skeena, Ba- bhiej_Driftwqod, Omeneca and Fin- ley rivers to the Peace, river pass, theiiee'eastef]y''to'a point at or near the Eastern boundary of.t'he-Province;'with authority to maintain aud operate branch lines from any point of the proposed route. All other powers and privileges usually asked for in such applications are requested of the Government. It is supposed that the request for amendment to the original charter and the present one. is for the purpose of-working in conjunction with parties iu the East, who have Machinery > Coming- iu . for Fine( Creek Benches���R.

If our suppose tion is correct,' we are justified in stating that the combination of the several charters will form one of the most "valuable railroad franchises on the American continent. As far as this section of the line is concerned, it is to be hoped that the Government in granting the charter, will bind the company to commence construction within a reasonable time, in order that we may have some assurance the new charter, to be applied for, is not for speculative purposes only.

It was our expectation to have had some telegraphic news from the outside this week, but a break has occurred near Hazelton, which, to the hourAof going to' press,.has not been repaired. The local opera tor advises us-that, when communication is again restored, he believes there will be little or no further delay this winter/and that we may look for the finest telegraph service in Canada. ��� ; , H. H. Fraser, who has been here for the last three seasons, recently left (or outside points to purchase machinery' for his property on Pine, above Willow. ' Mr. Fraser and his partners Messrs. ,Sweet, Christie, Fleming and Ber- ger, this summer acquired some bench ground nearly opposite Gold Run. They have run a drift over a hundred feet and struck rich pay, which, they claim, will run an ounce a day to the man. They consider", the -ground sufficiently good- to warrant the expense of cars, rails and other necessary machinery. -Mr. Fraser intends returning before the .freeze-up and will get in his plant as soon asjthe, ice^holds.- . A number of men will be employed during the winter. , "' ..AJn an interview reported.in an ex- change, R.D. Fetherstonhaugh ��� is stated to have -sai'd. that Atlin will within the ��� next ' two years prove richer than the Klondike, and.that the district has never yet beeu gone over by practical miners, as only a few such men are in the camp today. Speaking generally of the camp, Mr. Fetherstonhaugh stated . that the legal1 tangle had seriously handicapped and set back the district. ' Atliii was not sufficiently represented at Victoria, and sufficient discretionary powers were not given ' to the Gold Commissioner. The chief thing complained of was that proper judgment was not used iir granting water rights; mauy men had"obtained hydraulic leases and water privileges who had never spent a dollar on the properties, but were holding them purely for speculation, to the detriment of the bona fide' miner. What was greatly .heeded was a. proper interpretation "of the Water ' Clauses Consolidation Act. According to an interview in Seattle, Mr. J. Francis Lee, Traffic Manager of the W. P. & Y. Ry., in summing up his remarks regarding the business outlook in the north said: " One of the most prosperous camps outside of the Klondike is at Atlin, which gives the' promise of being one of the greatest quartz camps in the country. Many stamp mills would have gone in this year except for the set back received on .account of. the strike in the metal trades. I have estimated that fully. 80 per cent of the mining- machinery ordered for the North has uot^been shipped 011 account of this strike:' It has had the effect of greatly retarding the development planned fortius season.'' ;i-.. ��� >-���'!..������ I.��.< IS I, ay -4 r-f ��� t Sft'! ���mnontimSniiift* mliaH&a. . .���*'. ��� ���. ,-__AA ATLIN, B.C..

A" meeting of citizens will be held iii the Court House at 11 o'clock on that day for the purpose of electing three Fire Wardens. As the duties of such wardens has much to do in providing 'against the liability of fire none but the most conscientious ot men 'should be nominated. The duties are uot hard but the powers of such wardens are .almost autocratic. .-'.Tliti ! .following passage from the Act regulating the matter is of' interest: "To direct. aud_ regulate- 'in the. to��vu or its vicinity the position.of stoves, fire-places or furn aces,' chimneys, stove-pipes and smoke-stacks and the removal, change cr alteration of- the same or any of.them or the position or condition of them or any of them, aud further direct that anything shall be done by."way of precaution .to avert fire." .-. For non-compliance to the directions ot a majority, with the-warden^-'a1 person is liable to.a fte'halt.y ot $50. So much., for the duties of the' wardens, but .the .first requirement of nominees ��� is that they should" faithfully perforin these duties, looking towards the safety- ot life and property. The general public will be in hearty accord with all steps, taken in their, interest. In more than one instance in-the congested part of Atlin we knew, that radical changes should at once be made, and it is more, by good, luck ihan by good guidance that serious fires have .no.t wiped out these, localities. Every male, citizen, over iS years, is entitled to vote, and see to it that the. best men we can have are nominated. Nominations are to be sent to the Government Agent 011 or before the hour of meeting.

S.S. Hating In Dry Dock. -In a delayed telegram, dated ,Oct. ��� 18, from; -Vancouver,'[.'it is reported that the C...,.E.. ;N:.;...,Co.'s 'steamer Hating arrived, lin port under her J mail service and direct telegraphic With the steady approach of winter,' aud the knowledge that the last boat leaves Atlin on Monday next, it becomes a very natural question to want lo know how we are going to fare with our winter mail service. \\"e have, in this connection made'strict inquiry, and in our own small way advised Post Office Inspector Fletcher, during his .visit to Atlin last summer, of .what wc considered the best policy to pursue for the forthcoming winter. Complete arrangements have now been made so that there may be no hitch in the receiving and despatching of mails, and it may be of interest to know what has been done in this connection by the C. I). Co., who have the mail contract���now merged into the'W. P. & Y.- Ry.. According' to an interview, published in the Sica.tti.j- Tiuks, of the :Sth ulto., Mr. J. Francis Lee, Traffic Manager of the W. P. &'Y. Ry:, has this to say :���" During the winter season of 1901-2 the mail service-department o'f the W. P.* & Y. route' will* operate a' first-class relay stage' service in connection,with the-hijail'.between White Horse aud Dawson, carrying passengers and'.express, and running on schedule time. To establish this service a splendid equipment has been -provided aud every possible provision has been made for the safety and comfort of travelers, and for the ��� maintenance of a fast and regular service: All the drivers who will be employed during the season are men who have been previously in the employ of the'mail service department and have proven themselves thoroughly competent and reliable." As far as Atliu is concerned, a biweekly mail service will" be maintained throughout the winter for all first class mail matter aud newspapers, preference being' given to single papers and packages. The carriers'to be employed on this service are: Malcolm Macrae, A. N. Brown, Norman Rant and a man .irorn White Horse. The first re- .gular mail will leave Log Cabin on Tuesday morning next for Atliu. It is understood that the parcels post to Atlin will not apply to the winter service, but anyone desirous of having parcels sent in may do so by having such parcels addressed to Log Cabin and make arrangements with the carriers to bring thein in. In the case of dutiable goods, it is well to state ; that Log Cabin has been made a Money Order Office, so.that, instead of having to send cash, postal orders may be mailed.

Russell Before an Appreciative Audience. -On Wednesday evening ol this ' week a lecture was delivered by the Rev. Mr. Russell in St. 'Andrews Church, before one of tiie largest' ��� gatherings ever assembled in Atliii at a similar entertainment "* Rev. F. L. Stephenson occupied the chair. Before the lecturer'took the platform, a number of musical selections.and recitations were rendered, which were most favorably received. Dr. Cameron opened the programme with a beautifully rendered selection .011 the ^concertina," and for an encore treated his andi- nce to a piccolo solo.. r Dr. Lewis gave a humourous recitation,--entitled, A-n -.Irish. Oral 'Examination, which was productive-'of.; much" laughter. Mr: E. J. Thain. officiated at the graniaphoiie/which, needless to say, was in excellent voice, despite the wintry night, .and some really good "records" were given, . Miss Hughes,- sang Kathleen Ma- vourneeu, and distinguished herself in her encore, Thro' Tara's Halls." "Ethel Pillinan's recitation, though she. seemed a little" nervous aud required the prompter's assistance, was very,well received. Mr. Stables, M. L. A., an old standby, favored the company with an Irish song, ��� following it with In Our Kail Yard, which, from, a Scotch- mail, could'nt be beat.. Mr. Lumsden took the palm in his.rendering of I'm'Off to Philadelphia and Kil- arney's Lakes, both of which were most beautifully suiigv Two organ s'olos were fully appreciated from Mr. Ashtou. ; In his introduction of the principal feature of. the' evening's entertainment," Irelandj ;' 'Religious, Political- -'and'- -Educational! ' Mr. Russell told some very humourous .tales.-aud 'mentioned, some of. the igreat Irishmen of ihe day, who we're famous in the social, political and religious.life of the country and community. Even our local heads of the Church were Irishmen, so also was the Bench ' represented in Mr. Woods. The religious life in Ireland was lucidly dealt with and figures were quoted showing the religious denominations existant in Ireland. Each of���the three prominent creeds laid claim to the life's work, of St. Patiick, .but it was of no moment to the speaker whether the Patron Saint was sent by the Pope, the' Episcopal or the Presbyterian Church, sufficient to him was the fact the Ireland was brought from the darkness of heathenism to the light of Christianity. Oii the political life of the country the speaker dealt at length. That Irishmen are "agin the govern ment" is mainly due to the fact that, unlike .Scotland, Ireland is a conquered eounlry, ancl "lo the victor belongs the spoil," but the Irishman cannot see it that way, hence he cannot think otherwise than to be against the government, especially when every Irishman is a politician. 'The vaiious measures novy before the British Parliament, looking towards the alleviation'of distress^ iu'Ireland, were fully gone into, but, iu Air. Russell's opinion, the country will never piosner-as it ought to until Home Rule is established.' On Educational matters, Mr.,Russell, owing to the lateness of the hour, confined, himself to the rapid progression" made in the improvement of this important branch of social life. The lecture was most ably delivered, ancl the appreciation shown by the very large audience, to say nothing of the tidy sum realized for the church ought'to'be a stimulant for'Mr. Russell to further favor the people of Atliu. - rk'K.

Dawson is.going, to make a record for ' itself this season in its gold shipments. Last year's output is given at $22,500,000, while it is estimated the clean-up - will reach'the* twe:;fy-five million dollar mark this year. The shipment for the-four-months, ending September 30th, is as follows : Juiie July ��� - August - September Total $5,9:8,000 9,725,000 3,000,000 3,000,000 $21,643,000 The foregoing figures are from the records iu the Gold Commissioner's office in, Dawson, where certificates must be obtained by everyone shipping or taking out gold under penalty of forfeiture of the dust for non-compliance. The figures, therefore are indisputable. These figures do not include the gold taken from -the Stewart river or the Big 'Salmon, nor, of course, from the Alaskan Yukon, which, if ennumeralcd, would considerably swell the grand total.- ���Of the shipments made in May .there i.s .no- accurate account, as the compulsory export certificates only became operative when navigation opened. The shipments for October, it is expected, would exceed the' previous month, as the banks and trading companies would likely take advantage of the last opportunity to- ship what gold had accumulated in their safes. to his well-earned laurels., . ��� This time it is in ihe'naluie of a big strike of gas at what is known'as Bryan Heights, about four miles from the town of Velasco in Brazoria county. The 'heights' is a slight rise in the praiiie, only a few feet above sea level,,but of considerable area. When Capt. Lucas first visited the region he predicted the ' heights ' would prove to overlie a large reservoir of oil aud gas. The gas has bsen found under an enormous pressure. A despatch to to the Houston 'Post' states that on September 23rd the well, which was being drilled by Capt. Lucas and his associates, stuck a heavy gas flow that broke through with an awful roar, coming out of the 10-inch pipe with such-force as to Jjlow out 400 feet of the 4-inch casing the driller had staited down in .order .to run through- what 'he .thought was^he cap rock to the oil stratum.��� No attempt has- been made to' shut, off the gasl The .drillers are reported to be waiting for the flow of 'gas' to stop, so that they can continue the well to the oil horizon. The reservoir' of gas was struck at 500 feet. Capt. Lucas is the husband of Mrs. H. F. Lucas. Bilker & Parrotf, Livery Stables. Saddle Horses, Buggies, Road Carts, Pack Horses for Hire.
