Copper Street, Greenwood, ^?Hmn???mmm????nm?r??mTn??T??mTH???T???nT??????T?H??n??n??H??mn??n?T?n??TTT!?n?rr??T?K Mr. Paul Johnson is here. He is the smelting Messiah who is to deliver the people fronr any disappointment because of the installation of the Graves' smelter at Grand Forks. Mr. Johnson means business, and evidently means to stay. He is armed with half a dozen trunks and as many valises, a million dollars' or so, and an enviable reputation as a ' successful smelter expert. He is here representing* the British Colnmbia Copper Company, Limited, of New York and as an earnest of his intention to erect a smelter he brought with him Mr. John Norborn the mining machinery expert of the Union Iron Works San Francisco. Mr. Johnson is the heavy weight among the experts. He carries around some 300 odd pounds daily and still remains a genial, jovial gentlemen. Mr. Johnson was not desirous of making public the: details'of his plans, but he stated positively that he was here to build a large smelter. Questioned as to the location, Mr. Johnson stated that he would make a thorough inspection of the district. When asked regarding a water supply he laughed. "That does not need to frighten any one," he said. ''Water is not a serious consideration with the latest methods for taking care of the slag. Any of the smalt streams in this locality has sufficient water for a big smelter."* Mr. Johnson has been in consultation with Mr. Keffer, of the Mother Lode,' several times since his arrival. It is understood that. Mr. Keffer believes the most convenient and suitable site for a smelter to treat Mother Lode ore is up Copper creek, near Scott McRae's ranch. The company took the precaution to secure a site here some time ago. When Mr. Johnson has an opportunity to look over the ground he will be in a position to give more definite information. He has had a long and successful experience as a smelter expert. He built the Hall mines smelter at Nelson, smelters in Mexico and has just completed the erection of a smelter in California for the principals in the British Columbia "Copper compony. He is a graduate of the Royal Technical School and Mining Academy of Stockholm, Sweden. Mr. Norborn is here to arrange for the installation of the plant, which will be supplied by the Union Iron Works of San Francisco. This company supplied the plant for the smelter erected by Mr. Johnson in California. MINING NOTES This week the committee of the board of trade sent to Ottawa for transhipment to the Paris exhibition, THE. an exhibit of Boundary creek ores.. The shipment includes specimens from the different camps eand Camp McKinney. The mines represented are Lexington, Lincoln, City of Paris, Mother Lode, Morrison, Buckhorn, Gold Bug, Knob Hill, Ironsides, Brooklyn, Stemwinder, War Eagle, Winnipeg, Golden Crown, Jewel, Enterprise; Lakeside, King Soloinn, Big Copper, Summit, B. C, and the following Camp McKinney properties, Cariboo, Anchor, Minnehaha, Waterloo, Fonte- roy and Sailor. Mr. Michael Shick, the well know prospector, is in town from the Burnt,, Basin section. . He reports that there are 14 feet of quartz on the Topic, a property which he recently acquired. The ore from this, near the surface, runs from $12 to S14 to the. ton in gold and six ounces in silver. The intention is to put a force of men to work on this property in the immediate future. The shaft on the Mother Lode, he says, is now down 60 feet, and crosscutting will soon be. commenced. There are 250 tons of high grade ore on the dump of the Mother Lode and 500 tons in sight. A force of men is to be put at .work on the showing of ten feet of copper ore on the Mother Lode.���Rossland Miner. James Wilkes, organizer for the Western Federation of Miners, is in the city for the purpose of organizing the miners. He holds a meeting of miners in Phoenix this (Friday) evening and a meeting in Greenwood probably tomorrow (Saturday) evening. Mr. Wilkes has been busy during the past two months in the Slocan district where the union ha ve held but for a $3.50 rate for eight hours. He believes the wage question will adjust itself in a short time, but that the eight hour, law has come to stay. Gilbert Mahon, managing director of the Jewell Gold Mining company, returned from Rossland on Wednesday. On Thursday he and Mr. Norborn went up to the Jewel. Mr. Norborn examin-' ing the ground with a view,to selecting a suitable site for a'cyanide plant. This does not mean that the plant is to be installed immediately, but Mr. Norborn was anxious to look over the ground so thathe would be in a better position to figure on the plant as soon as required. F. H. Oliver, manager of the Morrison Gold Mining company was in the city this week. He visited the mine andwas naturally pleased with the big showing in the face of the tunnel. The tunnel encountered a large body of ore 0 from which gold values as. high as $33 have been secured. Jay P. Graves, his son Claude M.. Graves, Jno. P. Whitney and W. B. Rulon were in the city this week. Mr. Whitney is vice president of the City of Paris company, and Mr. Rulon represents Mr. Graves' many interests in the Quaker City.

Both are weSl a!nd popularly known throughout the district. Mr. McI,eod has been practising here for the past two years, making Midway his headquarters. Miss McKenzie was principal of the Midway school for some time. They will reside in Midway. The Times joins their many friends in extending hearty congratulations. The New Westminister Columbian says regarding the marriage: The affair was quite devoid of any ostentatious display, the services of bridesmaids and groomsmen being dispensed with, and only a few personal friends being present. The bride recently retired from a position on the teaching staff of the Westminister public school, which profession the groom also adorned at one time, having been principal of the Victoria high school. Retiring, he"took up law, finishing his term in the office of Mr. Aulay Morrison, M. P., this city, and subsequently commencing his practice at Midway. After the ceremony, the newly married couple left for.Vancouver, en route for Midway, where the bride will also be welcomed by the many friends whom she made while mistress of the public school of that place.

His manager will be Max Karter who ran the Clarendon before it was burned down. Max is bound to break the hoodoo which appears to have associated itself with Mr!1 Morgan's hotel ventures in the 'district,' so he went to'Victoria' last'week to secure a mascot in the shape of a wife. The happy couple "will spend their honeymoon in the coast cities and then come direct to Greenwood. Messrs. Graham & Perry have not yet fully decided to build, but ih all probability a large brick hotel will be erected by'them on their property at the' corner of Copper and Deadwood streets. Attended to by Council���W. E. Fenton Appointed Fire Chief. Aldermen A. Fisher and David Beath having taken their oath of office, sat at the council board for the first time on Mondaj' evening. Mayor Hardy was in the chair and all the members save Alderman Wood were pi escnt. Messrs. Pringle & Whiteside solicitors for Miller Bros., notified the council that they intend taking;action for damages because of the wrong grade, having been given for their buildingon Copper Street. The letter was referred to the city solicitor. A. S. Black representing the Greenwood Waterworks company asked for ah extension of time on account of the franchise granted to install an electric light system throughout the city. Messrs. Campbell &1 McGregor were present a.nd addiressed; the council. They pointed out that they had only just' acquired the character and the sixty days remaining of the life of the franchise did not allow sufficient time to install the plant they were purchasing*. The question of granting the extension was deferred for one week. The council went info committee to discuss the requirements of the fire 'department. They decided to purchase 1500 :k it of hose, a hose cart, fire alarm duty trui'iipet, hose and ladder straps, 18 helmet", ami 18 niackinaws.

Douglas, Q.;.C, ,a prominent barrister of Chatam, Ont., is visiting his son in this city. Mr. Douglas had rather an exciting trip on the Columbia & Western railway. He arid several others rode on,a work-train to the sum- jmit near Gladstone. From there a hand-car was used. As it is down !grade all the way to Cascade, the trip required no effort on the part of the ���passengers. Unfortunately, however, the grade ceased*at the bridge and'the car stopped in the center thereof. It was late at night and very dark. On 'account of luggage, if was impossible to use the handle, so that the passengers disembarked to find that the bridge timbers were, some of them, two and three feet apart. Naturally Mr'. Douglas felt nervous travelling 180 feet above terra firma, but all got over without accident. Mr. Douglas visited the province seven years ago. He sees some wonderful improvements. He is deeply impressed with the possibilities of Boundary Creek as a mining country. The Spokane Northern Extended Into The Boundary Country. Mr. J. M. Haydeh, manager of the Spokane Northern' Telegraph company of this city,; announces authoratively that his line will be completed to the Boundary country by the October 15th; and will touch every town of consequence in that section; including Cascade City, Grand Forks, Columbia, Curlew, Greenwood and Midway. Mr. Corbin, ever alive to public interests and wants, would have built this line a year ago, had he been aMe to .secure his" charter, which has"���been hanging in the house at Ottawa until now. This is a long felt want and should be appreciated by the people of this country as it will give them direct communication with these important camps. Mr. Corbin has great faith in the future of thin country and he should be congratulated upon the enterprising way in. which he backs his faith in constrct- ing this expensive line. He has secured the corner basement room of the new Montreal bank building in this city for his quarters, which is the finest business, location in the city.���Rossland Miner.

The News- Advertiser had the temerity to state that; Mr. Martin was responsible for the effort to remove the land registry I office from New Westminister after the fire. The reply came in the following letter to F. C. Cotton: Vancouver, Aug. 10, 1899. Hon. F. C. Carter-Cotton, Finance Minister, Victoria���Dear Sir: Enclosed I seud you a cutting from the News- Advertiser of today, headed "Opposition Weak." I beg to call your attention to the very improper, false and misleading statements contained in the latter part of the same, with reference to the government's action with regard to New Westminister. I would not trouble you with this matter were it not for the fact of your well known connection with this paper. I leave it to you to take whatever steps you see fit to contradict the statements made. As you are well aware, everything that has been done with regard to New Westminister has been done by the government as a whole, and it seems to me a very pitiable the News-Advertiser to gain some support for the government candidate at the coming election by making statements containing inuendos against me and praises for Mr. Semlin and yourself, which are absolutely without any foundation whatever. Yours truly, Josbph Martin. QREEMWmOD is the financial and commercial centre of the Boundary Creek district.

Situation���What He Advocates'. Mr. Buchanan said: In the early part of the winter of 1898, the. subject of the necessity of doing* something* to relieve the difficulties under which the silver- lead industry of Kootenay was laboring* came'.before the Kaslo board of trade, and I was.appointed upon a committee formed to investig-ate, and re? port .upon the subject.. The Ding-ley tariff had come into operation on the 1st of July, 1897.. Prior- to that, under ��� the Wilson tariff,1 we1"had entry for our ores into; the '��� United. States markets, upon' the payment of a duty of $15 per ton or % cent per pound upon.the lead contents of the orej 'and we also had entry into that market for lead in bullion at; the rate of 1-cent per pound. The Pilot Bay smelter had closed down before the Ding-ley tariff wasadopted, and before there was any certainty that it would be adopted. The Ding-ley tariff added $1 per ton to the duty upon ore making the duty one and a half cents per'pound. This immediately closed a great many of our mines. To a greater or less extent, lead has been -produced in British Columbia for the past 11 years. The number of silver- lead claims i that, have 'been recorded must amount to many thousands. Out of these, hundreds have undoubtedly good showings, and have, in fact, been developed to the extent that they have been made shipping- properties. But how many of thes<} properties have existed and persisted up to the present time? Out of these hundreds of claims comparatively few closed down for the want of ore, and yet very few exist now as shipping- mines. This, of course indicates that there was some difficulty in their way. They would not pay, and they had to close down on that account. The majority of these mines are closed down on a question of a few dollars per ton, and a few dollars additional value per ton would set them working- again. The Kaslo board of trade considered that the creation of a home market in Canada would in some measure alleviate the difficulty. Finally the duty devolved upon myself, of going to Ottawa, which I did in the winter of 1898. With others, I interviewed committees of ministers, and ministers individually, also the various departments, in fact, all who had an interest, direct or indirect in this particular question. They were loth to make any promises, and we were at leng-th informed by Mr. Patterson,commissioner of customs, that it was the intention to immediately begin preliminary negotiations with the United States, in regard to a treaty covering all points in dispute between the countries, and in connection with this, it was proposed to arrange for a measure of reciprocal trade. We were informed that the administration were unwilling, pending- the result of these neg-otiations, to take any steps to amend the tariff on lead productions. There were numbers of mineowners in Ottawa at the time, and we came to the conclusion that if under reciprocal arrangements, the duties on lead going- into the United States could be taken off, it would answer the purpose, and the American market would- undoubtedly be the best market we could hope to find. There are only two lead markets���one the United States'and the other the world.' London prices prevail in all countries outside of the United States, that have free trade relations with Great Britain. We presented our memorials to the Canadian commissioners, asking that they would endeavor to obtain such terms as1 would make lead in all forms free, as between the two countries, and particularly lead bullion and lead ores. Mr. J. B. McArthur went east last summer, and we appointed him as our representative, and with our requests, he appeared before the conference in Quebec, and in his report, made to us, he assured us' thaat the commissioners would use every effort to comply with bur wishes, and it was believed that they would secure, not only free admission of ores, but also free admission of bullion. You are told that these are concessions that will never be obtained. They will be opposed by the lead mining interests on the other side, they will be opposed by ; the lead trust, and-we fully'agree with that., There will probably be opposition on both sides of the line against any proposal for reciprocity. However, as you all' know, a very great deal of progress was made by the commissioners at the conference, and'a scheme of reciprocity was actually arranged. We were not asking* the Americans for something, with nothing- to give. We knew that to obtain : favors, weymustsgive favors; Sir Richard Cartwright and Sir I^ouis Davies, who no doubt shaped the policy of the Canadian commissioners, are men who have been trying* to g-et reciprocity for the last 30 years. It was only at our earnest solicitation that lead ores were put upon the list at all. It.was liberal on the part of the commissioners to take the stand they-did,- in deference to our wishes. Up to the last moment of the session of the conference, on their adjournment last winter, the matter stood in this position, that the commissioners had pretty nearly come to the conclusion that it was hopeless to apply for free admission of lead bullion or manufactured j lead, but they still maintained that,' position, as shown in a letter from Mr. Charlton, dated from Washington; on the 14th of January; and a telegram to the Kaslo board'':'������ of. trade from Mr. Bostock. A memorial had been ob- tainedfrorii the shippers of lead ores in the Slocan camp, from Ainsworth and Kaslo,. and the resolution of the Kaslo board of trade has been obtained and Mr. Bostock himself had copies of them, and so we replied to him infthis way: "This matter was. fully considered in June last, miners unanimous7 that free ores should be considered, if free bullion cannot be obtained.''.., This is how matters stood at the adjournment of the conference. The Toronto Telegram congratulated the Kaslo board of trade on being the one bod}' that was going to get what it asked for. . ..-'���', - There is now no data fixed for the resumption of the conference. However. we feel that a proper authoritative expression of opinion from this convention will carry more weig-ht than any other,kind of memorial that could be placed before the commissioners. . The greatest amount of lead ever produced in one year in Canada was some 19,200 tons, in 1897, and during part of that year the mines had the benefit of the Wilson tariff. Last year, althoug-h a good one in may respects showed a considerable fall. In British Columbia we produced about 34,000 tons of ore. We are told that this could be disposed of at home, without reference to the American market. The Canadian market for lead in all forms, will amount to about 12,000 tons per annum. By far the greatest proportion of this will be in the form of paint. j ���About three of the hig*h grade mines in the Slocan can continue to. work at the present time, and they can pay any charges that can lie imagined. All the other mines are engag-ed at the present time in development work. It is desirable that this state of things should continue? Shall our production be restricted for all time to 19,000 or 20,- 000 tons of lead, as a maximum, or is it desirable that we should make every possible effort to open up about 200 lead mines in British Columbia. I maintain that there is no basis for the argument that our mine owners would not benefit, and benefit largely by the re moval of this duty upon lead ores. The only other country except Canada that is shipping lead ores into the United States is Mexico, and in the year that the United States got 16,000 tons from us, they 60,000 tons from Mexico. This is our case, Mr. Chairman, and you may be sure that we are supported in this contention by all those who are engaged* in lead mining in this country. . Rossland is rapidly becoming- the financial headqnarters of Southern British Columbia. Prosperity in the silver-lead mining districts will mean additional prosperity in the districts of commerce and finance, such as the Rossland district. (Applause.) Gem Restaurant DEALERS IN-.

THE GREENWOOD SCHOOL. Monday, the 14th day of August, the public schools of the province were reopened after the midsummer holidays. Greenwood occupied the unfortunate position of having no public school to open and no immediate prospects of securing one. The hundred school ���children in the city must.be taught privately or not at all. The city is without a school building, teacher or trustees.1 Greenwood is an. incorporated city in the province of British Columbia���a province of which it has been said that it possesses the most liberal and advanced system of education in the world. Greenwood did not spring up in a day. Its growth has been gradual, giving plenty of time to meet any requirements of the public. There is no excuse for the absence of educational facilities. It is simply the outcome of a government divided against itself and a consequent neglect of public duties. In 1896 a public school was established in Greenwood. In order that there might be no delay in securing for the small number of children then in the city, a building was provided by Mr. Robt. Wood. This building was used until the close of the school term this year���not because it was suitable, but because the government never could appreciate the importance of the city and never took the steps necessary to,provide a more suitable building. This building was rented by the owner after the last school term. For two years the trustees urged upon the education department to do something*. At last the government called for tenders for. the erection of a school building. Nearly all the local contractors sent in tenders. After examining the tenders the government decided that the cost would be too great and that the building contemplated could not be erected. The board of trustees gave up in disgust and resigned., Now the government have mutilated the plans and want contractors to tender on a cheap-basis. Even if the members of the government take the desperate plunge of expending a few dollars on a cheap school building in the city, two or three months will elapse before the building is available. In the meantime, the children can enjoy the beauties of nature and become more perfect in that higher education which comes from the associations of the street, and the parents may trust in God and tell their friends in the east all about that perfect system of education in vogue in this province. The gentlemen are largely interested in the Dominion ; Copper company which was organized for the purpose of acquiring and developing McKenzie, Mann & Go's large and valuable mining- interests. The gentlemen are wide awake business men, ready to engage in any legitimate enterprise that is likely to prove profitable. They were most favorably impressed with Greenwood and showed a strong anxiety to invest their money in these undertakings necessary to secure for the city all the advantages to which she is entitled by the position she occupies. The Dominion Copper company is a strong and enterprising institution which can do much for Greenwood and it is indeed fortunate that some of the principals are so favorable impressed with the city. THE NEW ATTORNEY-GENERAL. Whatever may be the result of the New Westminister bye-election, there are good prospects of stormy political times in the province. : Alex. Henderson - brings no strength to a weak government'. He is not the man for a position that carries grave responsibilities because of the hasty experimental legislation passed at the last session of the,, provincial parliament. ,���'...

The*K ��� is no sign of strength in frantic efforts to tell the people how prosperous we are and how much more prosperous we are going to be. It shows weakness when a city makes a mad plunge to save its existence and then goes into hysterics because it does exist. Too much publicity cannot be given to the advantages possessed by a city, but this publicity should be given in a manner that will win confidence and respect. A city occupying a natural position, with mining camps surrounding' it and tributary to it, is bound to grow. Men's expedients may encourage this growth, but it will grow anyway. Greenwood has grown, not because of any hothouse treatment or any frequent display of fireworks, but because it was and is in a position to command and secure the trade. This year the building operations involve an amount greater than the value of all the buildings which were heretofore in the city. Without any special effort, without plunging the city heavily into debt, financial men are perfecting plans to carry on undertakings that will still closer cement the relations existing between the city and surrounding camps. Backed by 53,000,000, the British Columbia Copper company has its expert in the district with a view of selecting the best site on Boundary Creek for a large smelter. Another big company intends utilizing the power of Boundary Falls to generate electricity to light the city and "bperate a tramway between Greenwood and surrounding camps. These are only a few of several undertakings that are backed by capital and will soon be accomplished facts.

MINING DIVISION. Record WILL BE BUILT BY D. C. CORBIN To Greenwood and Other Boundary Creek Points. Work Wlil Begin at Once and Rushed to Completion. Supplies all Purchased. .The Line Will Connect With Corbin and Other American Telegraph Systems. ���' A private dispatch from Spokane announces that all the supplies necessary for the construction of a telegraph line from Marcus to Boundary Creek has been puchasred and active work will begin immediately. The line is being built by a company who were granted a charter at the recent session of the Dominion parliament. The moving, spirit in the company is Mr. D. C. Corbin of Spokane and the other incorporators are John Dean of Rossland and Duncan Ross of Greenwood. The line wiil be operated in connection ���with the Corbin system along the Spokane Falls & Northern railway Which' was retained when the railway itself was sold to the Great Northern company. Already a branch is in operation between Meyer's Falls and Republic but this will be abandoned as soon as the line to Boundary creek is completed. The intention of the company is to build from Marcus, Wash., following the Kettle river to Grand Forks. Fro"m here the line may be built to Greenwood direct and on to Midway and Curlew or it may continue along the Kettle river, to Midway "���and thence up to Greenwood. In any case the Republic branch will start from Curlew creek as it is'to expensive keeping the present Republic line in repair. As the construction of the telegraph line is to be rushed there is no good reason why it should not be completed to Greenwood within sixty days. The extension of the Corbin system into the city will be a decided advantage.- It not only assures competition but as it is to be constructed along a different route to the C. P. R. line there is a possibility that one line may be up when the other is1 down. of Mineral Locations for the Week Ending August 9.1899. ' August 3. . . ' White I/iiv, Kimberly camp, J. ZnrllncU.

Shaw Tells Coast We Want. People What Mr. H. C. Shaw, of the law firm of Hallett & Shaw, Greenwood, was welcomed back to the ci,y on Monday by his many friends. He is here on important business fur clients in the Boundary Creel: country. He will also g-o to Victoria to interview the provincial government in regard to several matters in connection therewith. Mi. Shaw is very enthusiastic about the prospects of Greenwood and the Boundary country. Viewing the mining interests from the standpoint of future development, he regards them as of the greatest importance to the province as a whole. '��� In an interview with a News-Advertiser representative, Mr;' Shaw said: "With the promised advent of the Canadian Pacific Railway, the economic aspect in Boundary Creek district has greatly changed within the last six mouths, both in business and mining. The big properties have been installing new machinery and are getting ready to ship. In each of the numerous mining camps surrounding Greenwood, ' there is one or more of such mines. In Greenwood camp, for instance, there are five or six practically on shipping basis, and the railway compan}- is building spurs into-, all the camps. This means that the working force of the men will be greatly increased in each case, and that cottages for operatives, boarding and bunk houses, etc., will be necessary. In other words, the rnine owners require facilities for carrying on the work of the mines. "Under these circumstances the question of ^surface rights becomes one of very material consequence, and at the present time is agitating the minds of 'the mine-owners in.no small degree. The possibility of others acquiring these rights for speculative purposes is ever present, and naturally the mine- owners do not feel like undertaking, : extensive improvements without a cer- '. tainty as to the title. This is" also a consideration of importance with those acquiring or seeking to acquire claims for mining. It is retarding operations now and,will continue to retard them --if not definitely settled. Most of the mineowners; in fact all of them, prefer men with families if they can get them, It is vastly, better in the interest of the mining camps; and without proper housing it is not possible to get such a class of miners. <������ "There is a large number of mining men and investors in the district looking out for suitale properties, and any uncertainty as to matters affecting in- vestmentB has* a decidedly prejudical effect, more especially all along the Washington side of the line���at Republic, Meyers creek, Oro and elsewhere��� good mining properties are being discovered, and the inducements to Canadian and British capitalists to invest there are daily becoming greater. Many of them are going over to that side of the line, who should, if possible be retained on our side. Hitherto, or until recently, all the mining was being done in British Columbia. "Now that the political situation has cleared somewhat, the people of the. Boundary district are hopeful that certain of the matters affecting the mining, and their interests generally, the consideration of which has apparently been held in abeyance, will have attention. They are, I may say, greatly pleased with the new turn of affairs so far. "There are many things we want up in the Boundary district which would give general satisfaction,if their necessity were conceded. We need a local supreme and county court registrar, preferably in Greenwood;-we want a local mining recorder with the powers of a gold commissioner; we want a definite decision as to' the right of claim owners to secure surface rights, as would appear to be the intention of the law as it exists; we require greater expedition in the recording of title deeds, and the issuance of crown grants; and we want more justices of the peace and county constables. Down here you cannot be expected to appreciate the inconvenience, delay and uncertainty that are caused sometimes by the lack of such facilities. Of course the people up there are not unreasonable as a class, nor are they 'kickers,' moreover, they do not in a new district expect to get everything in a day, and it is, too,-generally understood that the government, as a whole, is largely guided in such matters by the legal adviser of the crown; but as the situation changes they see no good reason why these grievances���and they are grievances���should not be remedied, and as I said before, they are hopeful that their representations will have full and fair consideration. "It is expected that passenger trains will be running into Greenwood by the 1st of October, when very considerable activity will result. For some time merchants have been holding back orders, and heavy consignments of machinery and other material- are dated so as to come in by rail. That together with the fact that the prospectors and mining men are out on the hills during this season, has made, business quieter than it would otherwise have been, but in a month or two at the outside the Boundary will be a very busy district, particularly around Green wood. There :i re numbers of enterprises depending upon the arrival of the railway to take definite shape. "Greenwood is bound to be a big and important place. It is surrounded by mining camps, and being very solidly built and developed. Its business men are all on a good footing, with a reputation for sound business methods, a fact which will be verified by any traveller or financial man who knows the district. It has three banks and already does a large wholesale.', trade. The country is opening up in every direction, and it is quite out of the question to, keep track of the new strikes and discoveries that are being made. Greenwood, with the start it has will largely control the business of the new camps and the smelter towns. A board of trade has been started and promises to have an active and useful career. ' ��� ~r1r "It is a striking feature of the Boundary district that there has not been, so far as I know, a single wild-cat proposition put on the market, and every property so far developed has improved in valueswith depth, and promises success. That speaks volumes for the people who have come into the district, and we wish to maintain that reputa-, tion if we can, and to obtain conditions as favorable as possible for carrying on the industry so successfully inaugurated;"���News-Advertiser. /nlNERS and :.: PROSPECTORS should Wear : : Ames Holden Co.'s " Columbia ���' '���Kootenay " ."'
