Vol. I, GREENWOOD CITY, B.C��� SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1896. No, 14, TOPICS TOR THE WEEK. ���ID draw the attention of our readers to the letter signed "X" which appears in another column of this issue. Our correspondent is of the opinion that an erroneous idea of the purpose for which the Boundary Creek Mining- and Commercial Association was organized, is prevalent. That is, a number of people hold different views from " X " on the subject. As a matter of fact we,are inclined to think that very few of the members of newly formed association could clearly state to what they had pledged themselves. The title of the society,,'.is pre- ��� faced with, the name of Boundary Creek ; but a motion was unanimously carried to the effect that its object be to advance the interests of " Green wood and the subsidiary camps." In what particular, then, has the Boundary Creek Mining- and Commercial Association a wider "scope of usefulness " than the Anaconda Commercial Club, in the constitution of which the following- section is to be found : " The objects of the organization are, the furtherance of the commercial and social interests, and the advancement of all enterprises having for their object the benefit of the town and vicinity." If the meeting had intended that the association should be a sort of district board of trade, Mr. Gordon's resolution should not have been passed. The association, it is true, showed a laudable disposition to keep sectionalism in the background, but the very argument that was used against the organization of a district board of trade on Thursday night,���that the meeting merely represented the interests of one locality,���can be applied with equal force to disapprove of the idea that the society,should assume the function of foster-mother until asked to do so. -*ir t,P "X " suggests, as a'means to correct what he calls " this erroneous but somewhat natural impression," i.e., that the objects of the society, are to benefit Greenwood, the forma- -tion'of a society corresponding to those which have been or are about to be formed in the other towns of the district, to deal with questions affecting Greenwood. The suggestion is a sublime instance of-putting the cart before the horse. If " X " had proposed that delegates from the Boundary Creek���alias Greenwood���Mining "and Commercial Association meet representatives of the societies ���' which have' been or are about to be formed in the other towns," to dis- cuss organizing a district association, or whatever it may be called, it would, we imagine, have been more to the point. vw ���>if 4% Fn passant, it is a matter for congratulation to note the energy and public-spiritedness shown by the people of Boundary Creek when dealing with matters concerning the interest of the district, and the blame in no wise rests with them that the district has not ere this seen the halcyon days of Utopian prosperity. , tip- tip ' SlP The dark and gloomy mystery attending the loss of the petition sent to Grand Forks, and when last heard of in the possession of Mr. G. Mimms, proprietor of the Grand Forks Hotel, has never been cleared up. To all questions relative to his knowledge concerning the whereabouts of the missing document Mr. Mimms has preserved a dignified and profound silence, which, as any lady will tell you silence implies consent, this is evidently not a case of Mimms sibi conscia recti. However, a second petition addressed to the Chief Commissioner and asking for the construction of a wagon-road from Greenwood City to near the head-waters of Fisherman creek is to be circulated for signatures, and this time every precaution will be taken against its accidental loss���probably it will be carted about in an iron safe. The route of the proposed road leads from. Greenwood up Boundary creek and continues by'way of Fholt creek through Providence and Summit camps to Fisherman creek where a connection is made with the existing road at the North Fork. The entire distance, is only fourteen miles, but the benefit to the district in general and to prospectors or owners of claims in the lately discovered Kimberly camp, Iydng L,ake camp, Pass creek, Providence and Summit camps in particular from the construction of such a road is obvious and undeniable. It is sincerely to be hoped that provision will be made in the estimates-and an adequate appropriation granted to carry out this important work. *V<- *v* *������� -��!����� IK- ">lf ' Messrs. Snodgrass & Sons are to be complimented. At no season in the year is the drive between Penticton and Grand Forks unattended with difficulties ; but at the present time, with the snow lying on the. summit roads three feet deep, it is as surprising as it is gratifying to receive the mails with the regularity and punctuality that one has a right to expect during the summer months. Mr. Snodgrass, " We looks towards you, and we likewise bows !" 4fe tlf tfe. tir ">if The organization of associations and societies appears to be a popular form of amusement at the present time, it is therefore apropos to suggest the advisability of organizing a Kettle River and Boundary Creek Mining and Agricultural Society, or some association of the same nature, for the purpose of holding annual exhibitions of ore specimens and agricultural products���these latter in.relation to the former would naturally be "very small potatoes" if they amounted to "a row of beans." Nevertheless good work might be accomplished by a properly conducted society of this . kind in many ways. The exhibits of ores after having been shown here could be^ sent for exhibition purposes to the several shows held in the province and to the Spokane Fruit Fair, in itself a capital advertisement for Boundary Creek. To obtain a grant of money from the Provincial Government, the society should/be formed and a secretary appointed without unnecessary delay. tee *Y4 ttf tip In a recent issue of the Rossland Mining Review a Mr. P. A. O'Farrell writes as follows : a In five years you will have 100,000 people in the Kootenay and Boundary countries. You will see that country producing more gold, copper, silver and lead than any other region of the globe. . . Recollect that Kootenay and Boundary form an Fmpire by themselves���it is a region of fabulous mineral wealth. For the commerce of such a country the great transportation lines will fight to the bitter end. The Northern Pacific have the best of the fight to day, and unless the Crow's Nest Pass line falls into the hands of the Canadian Pacific they will continue to have the. best of it. The Spokane Falls & Northern is in touch with the Northern Pacific, and a branch up the Kettle river to Boundary will give the Spokane Falls & Northern the key to the whole railway situation. In the throes of a national election Americans have neglected to watch the developments in Kootenay, but now that that is over I think that Americans will vie with Canadians in their interest in the developments of this new Fl Dorado of the west." 'S'i. tip -vl'S. It is announced that a rate is to be re-imposed on newspapers passing through the post. It the revenue of the department can be increased to any appreciable extent by this proposed rate, the Postmaster-General is taking a commendable step. The fact that the post-office department did not pay, has been urged as an excuse to explain the inadequate mail facilities in out-lying sections of this (Province and the pitiable salaries received by rural postmasters. XHE_ BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES, ANACONDA COMMERCIAL CLUB. The meeting was called to order at 8 p.m., and the minutes of the previous meeting having been read by the secretary, the president stated that the board of trustees met on Tuesday and had arranged for the hea.ting and "the lighting of the Club's rooms in the Wilson block. The building of a brick chimney was also reported completed. Mr. Hind said that the Townsite Company promised to donate a sum of $15 towards the publication of the pamphlet as proposed. It was moved by Mr. Miller, seconded by Mr. Keffer; that an advertisement be inserted in the Spokesman-Review inviting a barber to open a shop in the town.���Carried. A letter was read . from J. H. McDonald, an employee of the Hall Mines Company at Nelson, in answer to the advertisement for a blacksmith. Messrs. Miller, Hind and Keffer were appointed a committee to revise the by-laws and submit suggestions to the next meeting. ��� Mr. Hind stated that the contractors had commenced work on the new bridg-e across Boundary creek, and that the work- would probably be completed within a short time. Mr. Bennett thought the Club would be interested .to hear that he had had' an interview with Judge Spinks, who had informed him. that Mr. Heinze had deposited the $��0,000 required by the Government as guarantee of his bona fide intentions to build the Columbia & Western road, and that before the 4th of July next the whistle of the lo-' comotive would be heard in Boundary. The judge further remarked that Mr. Corbin was watching Mr. Heinze's movements very closely and was resolved, to beat his competitor in the race of railway construction. Boundary creek was, Judge Spinks continued, rated as first among- the coming ore producing districts of the province, Slocan ranking next in importance, and Trail third in the list. Application for membership to the . Club was received from Mr. J. P. Mc- Eeod. The business of the evening having been concluded much amusement was afforded by the delivery of two-minute extemporaneous speeches delivered by each member present, the subject being written on slips of paper and drawn in turn from a hat. It was decided to hold a mock trial next week, Mr. . Wilson being arraigned on a charge of disobedience to the order of the chair. On Friday the 18th inst, the question "Is the influence for good of the Christian church on the wane ? " will be debated. A Christmas tree to be followed by a programme of songs and recitations will be provided for the children here on Christmas day. Miss McAuley, of Midway, has been staying on a visit to Mrs. Birnie at Anaconda this week. "Jack" Eucy left this week to spend the Christmas holidays at Rossland. Mr. Law, of the Anaconda Mercantile Company, is on a business visit to Spokane.

Work is to be started on the Morrison the first of the year ; a whim has been ordered for the company, and either two or three shifts will be employed developing- the property. The tunnel on the Clifton is now well under way and it is expected that the vein will shortly be struck. A blacksmith shop has been built on the property and a larg-e pit of coal burnt. The shaft on the Big- Four, in Kim- berly camp, is now down IS feet, and the appearance of the ore steadily improves. A shaft on the Ivtilu which was started the other day is down 7 feet. The Times is informed on g-ood authority that assays as high as $50 and $60 in gold were obtained by Mr. Turner from the Gold Drop, at a depth of 50 feet. The copper value was from 3 to 6 per cent. The vicinity of Christina lake g-ives valuable promise of becoming-, a rich mineral producing- region. Some excellent results have been obtained recently from assays of ores from that neighborhood. At present, seven men^ are working on the Italia Rookh, and three shifts are employed on the E}dison group. "Mr. Galloway bought, this week, a quarter interest in the Tip Top, and a quarter interest in the Sylvester K., Greenwood camp. Both claims lie in good company, the Tip Top being on the Old Ironside lead, while the Sj-l- VesterK. adjoins the Brooklyn. Lattle , development work has yet been done on either properties, but the enormous surface showings are not to be disputed." Mr. Bartholemew, local manager for the Combination M. & M. Co., returned from Spokane last week. Mr. Bartholemew states that the company inr tend to thoroughly develop their prop-' erty in Providence camp this winter, carrying the present 35-foot shaft down for 250 feet, crosscutting and. drifting at respectively 100 and 200 feet. I^ater on a force of men are to be employed to drive a tunnel from the south -end of the claim with the object of tapping the larger quartz ledge . (supposed to exist) and connecting with the main workings, gaining a depth of 400 feet. If this programme is carried out, a matter which remains to be seen, the question whether the Combination is a mine or not will certainly be settled. Meanwhile, a " blower " has been ordered and is expected to arrive in a f eav days,~and a larg-e quantity of supplies have been sent up to the claim. TENDERS 'WANTED.

GREENWOOD AND VICINITY. Cord-wood wanted at The Times office, in payment of subscriptions. Mountain lions and wolverine are causing the miners at the head of Puss creek many a weary tramp. A court of revision and appeal will be held by Mr. Frank McGowen at Greenwood next Fridaj"-, 18th inst. Invitations are being issued for the dance at , the International hotel on Christmas EJve, the 24th inst. As all are invited, however, no one need wait for a formal request. " Tom " Gulley has moved into his new house on Greenwood street, and a notice bearing the legend "Apart ments to I/et " now decorates the tent, his late "residence." An important deal is being consummated for the transfer of a large tract of coal land at Rock creek, the particu- lars���of which we,are not at liberty to divulge this week. The meeting called for this Saturday to organize an Oddfellows' /"lodge . has been postponed till next week, the information requested from the Grand' Iwodge not yet having been received. Mr. Andrew Spence left this week on a visit to the home of his parents at Milton, Oregon. Mr. Spence, it is understood, before leaving made careful arrangements for the comfort of his future bride; Hard times or otherwise, the children in the district will have at least one happy evening this Christmas ; over $60 has been subscribed at Midway, and as much more at Greenwood and. Anaconda, for their benefit. The Anaconda Commercial Club will celebrate New Year's Kve by a grand ball (see advt.), and as the people of that picturesque burg- do not believe in any half-hearted kind of business, a really enjoyable time may be expected. Work on the hot air furnace at the hospital was completed on Thursday and the entire building is now comfortably heated from basement to garret. The damage caused by the recent fire has also been repaired, with the exception of some plastering work. Mr. A. B. Hart leaves next week for Grand Forks, where he has a contract for the erection of a residence for Mr. I. A. Dinsmore. The building will be similar in design to that of the government office at Midway, room being provided for a recorder's office as well as constable's residence. The situation is near the Presbyterian church, in the Van Ness addition. Mr. J...C. Olson, of the firm of Olson & Phelan, arrived in Greenwood this week from Rossland, where he has been the past two months. He reports Rossland as being in a flourishing condition, the trains being crowded every day with people going in to make their home there. Bveryone seems to have plenty of money and there is no talk of hard times. Greenwood and Boundary Creek are much talked of and seemingly well known. Mr. Olson will remain here about six weeks and intends to do considerable work on some claims he is interested in in Skylark camp. Mr. Garland is fitting up an office on Government street. A telephone line is to be hung between the hospital and Messrs. R. N. Taylor & Co's. drug store. The trees which hitherto somewhat hindered the view of the hospital from the town have been felled. It is an unquestionable fact that to conduct a business in Boundary at the present time successfully is a feat whereof to boast. The delays that tradespeople have to put up with before receiving shipments of goods from wholesale houses are not the least of their troubles. As a case in point with , regard to this particular annoyance it may be mentioned that nearly two months ago Messrs. Olson & Phelan placed an order with a well-known firm of wholesalers for . staple groceries. The bill arrived, with a memorandum, that the goods had been shipped, in due course, but although the wholesale house has a distributing point at Trail the shipment is still en route.

FREE MINERS' CERTIFICATES. [CONTRIBUTED.] The free, miner's certificate, when considered as a piece of B.C. mining legislation and compared with all else in the mining line emanating from the legislature, stands out in bold relief as reg-ards its simplicity���that is, on the surface. The moment, however, the owner of one of these slips of paper sinks an analytical shaft on that portion of the document which reads "and is entitled to all the rights and privileges of a free miner," he finds that he has struck it rich in pyrites of ambig- ��� uities and chlorides of assessments. What are these privileges ? " Mr. Recorder, have you a Mineral Act handy ?" " Yes, sir, we sell them at two bits." Our free miner takes one, and after losing half-a-day prospecting in a volcanic formation in which Webster's dictionary shows up in a very distorted, broken and metamorphosed condition, he emerges into better country, and finds (1) That when/his present certificate runs out he can- get another by paying $5 ; and that should the present one be eaten by bush-tail rats, or become otherwise disabled or extinct before its allotted time, he can procure a substitute on payment of $1 lawful nioney of Canada. ' (2) That like a railway ticket it is not transferable, and if he shoots a deer on some other fellow's certificate it will prove an expensive mowich. (3) That if he does development work without a free miner's certifi.ca.te he has the privileg-e of paying $25 and ��� costs. (3) That he has the right to enter (and cut his own trail), loc^e, prospect and mine upon waste land of the crown for all mineral other than coal"(provided he does not run up against an orchard, an Indian illihee, or-hydraulic monitor). On blowing in four bits more for "An Act to discourage coal mining," and " The Columbia & Western Grab-all Act*" he learns that coal mining is covered by a higher grade of certificate costing $50, and must be .countersigned by Heinze, or some other ".heavily--/ bonused railroad magnate. If he is poor he can locate, only one claim on one lode. This is to keep him on the move so he will not nurse his troubles. If he is.loaded tip with cash he can buy as many more as -lie'wants.;.' He may kill all the g-ame he needs , for his own use, if he has a gun and is a g-ood shot.'.., He is entitled to all the privileges granted free miners by the Placer Act [two bits for this Act]. He cativmiiie clear down to hades inside the boundaries of his own claim, but he must not prevent anyone else on the outside going to the same place. His interest is a chattel interest���the.meaning of which term can be ascertained by knocking- at the Court of Chancery. " No. free miner shall suffer from any acts of omission or commission or delays on the/part of the government "��� if it can be proven. After this hasty assay of Free Miner's Certificate No. 7,777,363,611, of which I am the proud possessor, may I ask space in 3rour next issue to make a few suggestions as to a new form of certificate ?

The annual meeting- of the Combiri- , ation Mining- & Milling-Co. will be held at Spokane on Saturday, Deci 26th. Billy Porter returned this week from Assinaboine, and intends to continue sinking- the 60-foot shaft on the Golden Crown. Shipments of ore in lots of 50 and 100 pounds have been periodically shipped from the Stemwinder for the purpose of mill tests. Mr. J. C. Haas is preparing- a general report on the mineral resources of Boundary Creek for Mr. G. B. Mc- Auley, of Spokane. Mr. T. Brophy is, bring-ing- suit ag-ainst Mr. Reug-er, proprietor of the Skylark mine, for a quarter interest in the property, which he claims. A sale was made this week by Mr. W. B. Rickards of a half interest in the Pheasant, a promising" property in Greenwood camp, to Mr. A. K. Stuart. W. A. Corb'ett has traced the quartz ledg-e on the L,ake claim to the lines of the Defiance by sinking- prospect holes at intervals. A pay streak,^ assaying- well, was struck on the hang-ing- wall of this ledg-e. The tunnel is now in 110 feet on the , Mother lyode and the assays are steadily improving*. The manag-er states, however, that in his opinion " the rock is harder than any to be found in British Columbia." The Sunset and Crown Silver have been bonded, due to the favorable report sent in by Mr. James Brady, the mining- expert. An excellent tunnel site has been located on the property and development work will doubtless shortly be started. * Mr. Fred. McMann a half interest in the in Welling-ton camp. St. Flmo is well min small, and has been" feet. Assays- as hig-h and copper have been this week boug-ht St. Flmo claim. The ledg-e of the eralised, thou g*h stripped for 25 as $30 in g"old obtained. Mr. W. T. Smith returned from Spokane this week, but left immediately for Fairview. Preparations will be shortly made by him, as manager of the Republic Mining- Company, for starting- work on the Non Such, Republic and Iyast Chance. A query column will be started, it is hoped, in next week's issue of The Times, for the use of prospectors or others desiring- information or on any subject dealing- with their particular calling-. This column will be edited b3r a well-informed local mining- man. The Times stated last week " that Mr. Reug-er was seeking- an extension of time in which to make a final payment on the Skylark bond." Mr. Carl Reug-er, the manag-er, is our authority for re-iterating- the statement. The matter has, however, just been adjusted, Mr. Reug-er taking- up the bond and re-commencing- work this week. The dividend of two cents a share on the capital stock of the Cariboo M. & S. Co., recently declared, was due on Monday and has been paid to the shareholders. Tenders are being- called for the construction of a sleig-h road to the Denaro Grande and for the building- of three cabins on the same property. Mr. Ives- lie Hill is expected to arrive in camp ' ''shortly.. ' -.'_[���" Another mining- company has been org-anized in Spokane to operate in Boundary creek, and have acquired the B.C. Central claim, in Deadwood camp. The claim was formerly the property of Mr. J. McNicpl. .^ A g-roup of four claims in Deadwood camp, the Gem, Iron Top, Ivizzie and Buckhorn, have been bonded by J. Dunn, to a Mr. Flliot, representing- a New York syndicate. The Gem is in the vicinity of the Mother I^ode and is considered to be one of the promising- claims of the camp. Q - Sinking- was started on the Oro, owned bjr Messrs. Doug-las, Wake and Atwood, in Central camp, on Thursday, supplies being- taken up to the claim sufficient to last the winter. The ledg-e is 4 feet wide, upon which a shaft has been sunk for 12 feet. The ore is very hig-h grade copper-g-old. Messrs. Sansom & Holbrook have received the smelter returns from aproxi- mately four tons of ore shipped to the Pug-et Sound Reduction Company, at Fverett, Wash., from the D.A., one of the Boundary Creek M. & M. Co's. properties, as follows : Silver, 74.7 oz., Gold, 4.99 oz.; lead, 2 per cent.;, total value, deducting- freig-ht and smelter charg-es, $449.69. Judg-ing- from assays made this week the G.A.R., owned by the same company, is also a shipping- proposition, the ore from the bottom of the shaft running- $15,05 in g"old and 196.4-5 oz. in silver, or $142.87 for all values. The vein matter is g-alena,, blende and pyrites.

DISTRICT NEWS; Spencer Bennerman and Georg-e Guess returned this week from the West Fork where they have located a towns������a meadow ranch. The inquest that was to have been held at Camp McKinney by Dr. Morris, on the body of Roderick, the supposed hig-hwayman, has been postponed. A.trapper recently coming- from the Similkameen reports that Messrs. Brownlee and Shaw are making- a final survey of the route to be followed by the Vancouver, Victoria & Fastern railway in the vicinity of Hope. Mr. Cuppag-e, district inspector of roads and bridg-es, visited Carson recently and signified that a bridg-e would be built across Kettle river near the Johnson ranch. The building- of a bridg-e at this point will be appreciated , by freighters, insomuch as the present circuitous route by way of Grand Forks need not be followed. The Christina Fake Navigation company of Cascade City, has contracted to build a 100-ton steamer, 22 by 100 feet, to run on Christina lake and creek from Cascade City to the head of the lake and have it in operation the coming- spring- to accommodate the travel and heavy freig-ht anticipated on the proposed railroad construction, and ore shipments. -MART *> ���~-n-.)��u. m.itmen��Ml %nm.gnu**. u~rannrcyznnrTZ* Office, Store, and Saloon Fixtures a specialty-.

GRAND FORKS MINING NEWS. [Special Correspondence.] / Nothing of direct importance has transpired in or around Grand Forks for the past thirty days, yet there is a great deal of mining speculation going on./ Several small deals have been made, whereby interests have been transferred into the hands of men who intend to do considerable development work next season. There is no possibility now of work being started on the Volcanic before next spring, when, however, operations will be conducted on a large scale. Arrangements are now being made /by the Seattle Company for starting work on their property, and in case a contract is let, a 50-foot shaft will be sunk on the vein and the old Clark tunnel will be abandoned for the present. Comfortable cabins have been erected and every preparation made for winter work. Work is progressing on the Fnglish and French Company's property, and the results so far fully justify the surmise���that the mines in this country improve with depth. "��� A deal was made this week between Chas. A. Iyong, aHRossland mining- man, and Alex. Omen, owner of the Fmpire mine, adjoining the townsite of Grand Forks, whereby a 50-foot shaft is to be sunk on this property at once. The Fmpire adjoins the town- site on the hill to the east, and is con-' sidered to be a valuable property. A large sum of money will be required to develop and open up the Fmpire vein, as it is large, heavily iron-capped and thoroughly mineralized, but at present has no remarkable mineral /showing on the surface. The contractors working on the Bon- ita mine, on Observation mountain, have reached a depth of IS feet in their 100-foot tunnel and ure alreacly in ore. THey are working at least fifty feet away from the surface showing which indicates that a probably large body of ore will be opened up before spring. Judge Spinks, it is expected, will arrive here within a fortnight, when a contract will be let on the Grey Fagle, an adjoining property to the Bonita. The contract will be for a fifty-foot tunnel. Possibly work will be started on the Grand Forks claim on the same mountain to the west. With three properties being extensively developed within sight of town we may promise ourselves lively times for the present at any rate. Mr. R. G. Ijegg, manager of the Keough property at the head of Fisherman creek, Summit camp, was in Grand Forks yesterday and reports that the contract for sinking a 100-foot shafts has been let. They are now busily engaged packing up provisions and mine supplies. Fight men are to constantly employed all winter. There are about twenty men working in Summit camp now, and there is a fair prospect that another property on Fisherman creek will be started up. An important deal was recently consummated here, the original townsite company having transferred all its "rights, title and interest " toa syndicate composed of influential and prominent British Columbians. The new company is capitalised for $75,000, and will, as soon as practicable, start to make improvements in the town. This move virtually guarantees for Grand Forks railway influence, government establishments, and other advantages. None of the former members of the original company are associated with the new organization. ; A rich strike of high-grade sulphide ore is reported to have been made in the Columbia mine near the Volcanic, where a shaft is being sunk to the side of the vein as a working outlet. J. A. Walker who has been doing a good deal of work on Garnet mountain, near Pass creek, and on the Garnet claim, was in town yesterday purchasing provisions preparatory to starting work on the O'Neil property up Fourth of July creek. Mr. Walker is acting* for a Spokane syndicate who are spending no inconsiderable sums in this district. It is rumored that a deal has been , made on the Pathfinder property, Parkinson and Pfeifer realizing $75,000 from the transaction. It is not definitely known whether any work on a large scale will be done this winter. The promoter is an Fnglish gentleman who arrived here from Rossland. He. refuses to give any information .regarding his intentions at present; work, however, may be started on the property at any time. Ashfield and Rogers are working energetically upon their tunnel on the hill east of the town, and expect to tap the Fxcelsior vein at, a depth of 140 feet.

To the Editor, Boundary Creek Times : Sir,���May I be permitted a few remarks as one present at the meeting- to form an association for the promotion of the interests of Boundary Creek. A very general impression, even among" those who were present at the meeting-, appears to be that the newly- formed society is larg-ely for the purpose of advancing- the interests of Greenwood; and despite the name g-iven to the society, " Boundary Creek Association," this is a feeling- liable to g-ain ground on the outside. This will larg-ely impair its scope of usefulness by taking- away its representative character, which must obviously be a sine qua non of its existence. Now to obviate this erroneous but somewhat natural impression, I would sug-g-est the formation of a society corresponding- to those which have been or are about to be formed in the other towns of the district, to deal with questions affecting- Greenwood. The B. C. Association must confine itself solely to matters relating- to the district at larg-e. Unless this be done, I cannot see that the newly-formed society can hope for the support it deserves from the outside, and without this it is in the nature of thing-s bound to fall short of its excellent aims.���I am, etc., X. jack Farrell has been steadily developing- the Buttercup, in Welling-ton camp, for the past few months and now has the claim well prospected. The ore on one lead is similar in appearance to that on the Winnipeg-, whereas a second ledg-e is hig-hly mineralized quartz. Besides several prospect holes two shafts have been sunk on the property, both about 30 feet deep. >*<e��o<t*-��<v>i>��H>-%*&>^<9 'OUR consignments of Goods, shipped respectively Octcv ber 22nd and 28th and November 9th and 20th, Goods were packed in ordinary common Wooden Boxes and Sacks, with the letters "0. & P., GreenWOOd, EC" marked thereon.
