Gaunce, who spent several-' months in the district last ,fall, has returned from the coast. Mr. Gaunce was for two years connected with the , Washington State Immigration association, during- which time he prepared and circulated a vast amount, of literature calling- attention to the ad- rantag-es which the state offered f or settlers. During- his visit to the coast .he did good service to Boundary Creek hy calling- attention to the resources ��f the district. The Spokesman-Review, the Seattle Times, Vancouver World and other newspapers of large circulation contain interesting- inter- Tiews with Mr. Gaunce. The Ranch and Range, a farmer's paper with a large circulation, contains a carefully prepared article drawing- attention to the larg-e and profitable market for farm produce that, is sure to be opened up in this district. Mr. Gaunce is so well satisfied with the future of the city and district that he has decided to settle here and is opening- a real estate and mining office on Copper street. Smelter at Cascade. Wednesday evening, W. H. Aldridge, manager of the Trail smelter, arrived in Cascade. He was accompanied by L. E. Campbell, manager of the West Kootenay Light and Power company at Rossland, better known as the Bon- nington Falls concern, and by C. A. Stoess, a surveyor, who has had many years' experience in railway and general engineering-. Mr. Aldridge came by appointment to confer with the owners of the Cascade townsite relative to the erection of a large smelting plant near this city, which is to be utilized in the treatment of Boundary, Christina Lake and Burnt Basin ores. All day Thursday was spent'in looking over the immense power at the falls and in tramping over the site selected for the smelter, about one and one-half miles south of the city, on a high bluff above the Kettle river. ��� Cascade Record. New Catholic Church at Grand Forks. The new Roman Catholic' church in Grand Forks was opened by the Rev. Father Palmer on New Year's Day. The new building" stands on the elevated ground, exactly half way between the lower aiid upper towns. The site, which is certainly the best in the whole neighborhood, was generously given by ex-Maj^or Manley. The church is 75 feet long by 25 feet wide and will accommodate about four hundred people. From its position it commands all points of the two town- sites and is the noblest and most conspicuous building in the district. 4�� * 4�� Turkeys, Geese, Ducks, Chickens, Oysters, Fish, and al! kinds of fresh and cured Meats, go to S <& ,:;C *' Head Office for Boundary Creek division at GREENWOOD.

Many were the prognostications made regarding- the early defeat of the Semlin-Martin combination. Some figured that it would be impossible to elect a speaker ; others claimed that there would be no majority after the speaker was elected. The speaker has been elected and the government has a majority of four���a sufficient number in'a house of thirty-eight. Alex. Henderson, who defeated "Winchester" ���Brown in New Westminster, sits and votes on the government side of the house, looking quite at home, and the . government appear to have forgotten that Henderson defeated one of Mr. Semlin's best fighters. W. G. Neilson, M. P.. P. for North East Kootenay, dropped dead at Almonte, Ont., on Thursday last. The desertion of Henderson and the death of Neilson leave Mr. Semlin with a majority of four. The election of a speaker created no fight nor discussion. J. M. Kellie, who was supposed to be an applicant for the position, moved that Thos. Forster, member for Delta, be speaker. Hon. Col. Baker, a member of the Turner government, seconded the motion. There was no opposition, and it is now Mr. Speaker Forster. The speech from the throne foreshadows some important legislation. Some of the election promises are hot forgotten, for the mortgage tax is to be repealed and working miners will not be required to have free miners' certificates. Probably the most important legislation 'outlined, is that which will prevent aliens from holding placer claims. The intention is to create a trading monopoly for the coast merchants in the Atlin Lake district. The speech politely says so, because it states that the object of the bill is to conserve the natural wealth in these gold fields for the benefit of Canadian miners and Canadian traders. It is rather a moot question whether it is in the public interest to inaugurate a polic3r of excluding a mining; class from a country with a population of less than five million and room for sixty million people. There are members on both sides of the house in favor of the measure and it will likely pass. The legislature will be asked to pass a measure to put the -civic finances of New Westminster on a stable basis. It will be remembered that the Royal City was almost completely destroyed by fire. . '��� The Torrens' system of land registration is to be introduced. Certain changes are tobe made in the land act. A bill is to be introduced to prevent the "employment of Japanese underground.

The Supreme Court act, the Provincial Elections act and the Liquor License act are all to be amended. The fun is likely to begin on Monday. Mr. Turner has given notice that on Monday he will move "' that the course adopted by his honor, the lieutenant-governor, in dismissing his late ministry was at variance with the constitutional principles upon which responsible government should be conducted." Colonel Baker gave a foretaste of the style of argument to be pursued in his speech discussing the address on Friday. Ralph Smith moved aiid Mr: Munro seconded the reply to the speech N from the throne. Colonel Baker, in reply, said among other things that the government was a gubernatorial monstrosity���the creation of one man in ���contempt of the will of the people. He sneered at Mr. Henderson's going over to the government, and wondered if the explanation for his conduct could be found in the promised assistance to the city of New Westminster. aY'i *Y& *Y's �����if ��� yit> '/it- A BIG MINING DEAL. One of the most important deals in connection witlr Boundary Creek mining properties was transacted last week in Toronto, when Byron L. Walker, manager Canadian Bank of Commerce, Hon. Senator Cox and Robert Jaffray became associated with Mackenzie, Mann & Co. in. in the ownership of big Greenwood camp properties. The min^s included in the deal are the Brooklyn, Stemwinder��� Rawhide, Montezuma and Standard. W. T. Smith, wh�� has a quarter interest in some of the properties, left Spokane for Toronto this week. His visit is in connection with, the recent transaction as well as other mining deals<he is putting through. Joe. Boss has been in Toronto with Dan. Mann for some time before the Toronto capitalists invested in the properties. It is stated that the owners do not intend organizing a. company for some time, but will develop the properties as a. close corporation. The Brooklyn is being vigorously prospected. A large shaft house���the neatest in the district���has been erected. Two large boilers and a hoisting engine have been installed and sinking is being carried on night and day. The ledge outcrops on the surface over one hundred feet iu. width. The ore on the dump is similar to that taken out of the Ironsides shaft between the SO and 75-foot levels. The -Rawhide is being developed by a crosscut tunnel now in. over 250 feet. It has about 400. feet to run. The Stem- winder, Montezuma and Standard show big Greenwood! camp ledges. The new owners are among the most enterprising and wealthiest men of Toronto. The intention is to get a big compressor plant to work the group of properties. $Y&' *Y& ���>it- ?'?��� ?if SKYLARK CAMP. Thanks to the enterprise of H. H. Shallenberger, Skylark camp properties are coming to the front. He recently organized in Spokane the Greenwood Crescent Gold Mining and Milling company with the following directors : Charles Sweeny, W. B. Heyburn, H. H. Shallenberger, J. F. Youngs G. S. Allison, J. A. Odell and F.' B. Grunnell. The capitaL is 1,000,000 shares of 10 cents each. The company's stock was a favorite as soon as placed on the market. All the first block was sold and double prices are being offered for remaining shares. Mr. Shallenberger has also purchased the Lake claim from W. A. Corbett. It is the intention to incorporate a company to take over the property. The Lake is near the Last Chance mine. The Boundary Creek Mining company the owners of the latter property, intend installing machinery -early next spring-. The Lyake adjoins the Last Chance on the north. Hal. Cole is negotiating for the sale of the Defiance, another Skylark camp property. The Defiance lies north of the Lake and adjoins the San Bernard, and is considered one of the promising properties of the camp. Indications point to a strong movement in' Skylark camp properties during the coming season, and a large amount of development work will be done.

For a few days last week, during the cold snap, there was an immense sheet of clear ice on Christina lake, fully twelve miles by two miles in extent, but the only man who profited by it was Charles Sanders, who owns a pre-emption at the head of the lake, and' took advantage of it to make a trip to the outside world. The lake is very dangerous for those who do not know it thoroughly, there being a great many springs, aiid consequently air holes in the ice. , ,....-.., Those who have not actually seen the .work of building the railway through the McRae Creek pass and along- the North Fork of the Kettle river, can scarcely realize the difficulties which modern engineering skill can overcome���and 'yet the construction of the line from Robson to Bound- arj' creek attracts little comment outside of the local press.

There are large bodies of ore, generally low grade but easily worked, and with proper mining/facilities will yield" a handsome profit. It is reported that_ the Atlantic, a claim owned by GeoV Henderson 'and 'Robert Murray, was bonded/this week for $40,000. Both owners are out of the city, so that particulars could not be learned, but it is reported that all the "papers have been signed and the deal closed. The Atlantic has been developed to a considerable extent and a large body , of ore has been opened up. The claim in Kimberley camp that has attracted the greatest attention of mining* men is the Dromard. It lies north of the Atlantic and was located in August last. Since that date the property has been worked continuously. A tunnel has been run and the ledge is 16^ feet in width. Mining men who have examined the Dromard , claim that the ore is free milling-, and that it can be worked very cheaply, as it is situated on Boundary creek, where there is a splendid water power. Numerous assays have been made of the ore of the Dromard. The ledge goes from $2.80 to $9.60 in gold. The property is so situated that a great depth can be attained simply by continuing- the tunnel. The ore is easily worked and experienced mining- men are strongly of the opinion that with the best facilities the ore can be mined and milled for less than $2 per ton. The ledg-e ' can be traced on the surface over 4,000 feet and varies in width from 16J5^ to 50 feet. Development work will be continued, and from present indications it looks as if the Dromard was likely to prove a permanent and dividend-paying- mine. Court of Revision. C. A. R. Lambly, assessor, and F. McGowen, judge of the court of revision, passed through Greenwood on 'Sunday, en route to Grand Forks, where a court of revision was held Monday morning. Several minor appeals were disposed of. They returned on Monday and held court at Midway on Tuesday, the only appeal being from Mr. Moody, owner of a townsite at Christina lake. The Greenwood Club. The Greenwood club elected officers last week as follows: President, C. Scott Galloway ; vice-president, F. J. Finucane ; secretary, W. L. Leonard ;��� treasurer, J. W. Smith ; committee, A. M.

P. A. O'Farrell, writing to the Toronto Globe, has this to say concerning- the Old Ironsides and Knob Hill mines: ������; "More than a year ago I made a prolonged sojourn in the Kettle River -country,.and I then became profoundly impressed with its magnitude and pos- .sibilities. I .examined the Republic and then declared it among the greatest gold mines of ,> the world. I made .similar predictions about Ironsides, JKnob Hill, IVpne Star and Washington, Stemwinder, Brooklyn and others. Well, the Republic has already filled the mining world with astonishment, and Knob Hill and Ironsides will amaze the world to-morrow. I say tomorrow, for even its principal stockholders do not yet realize the value of these properties. In a recent letter I stated that thoug-h the owners claimed o the ore will averag-e $20 a ton, I could jiot believe it possible of mining- more than $10. The ore body was so vast, so immense, that I did not believe that nature could have- ever placed such .stupendous treasure all in one place. Fancy a dyke of solid mineral 300 feet wide, which will run 5 per cent, copper and three-fourths of an ounce in , gold. An experienced mining man would laugh at such a suggestion. He will tell you that such a mine is contrary to the laws of nature and all that kind of thing-. Nevertheless, the Knob Hill , and Ironsides vein is 300 feet wide, ,1,000 feet in length and already explored to 450 feet deep. And it will produce $20 in gold and copper for every ton ��of ore mined. Knob Hill and Ironsides doubly discounts the great Anaconda itself. The ore is twice as valuable and the ore body twice as large. Anaconda pays $3,000,- - O00 yearly in dividends. What are not these mines capable of doing ? Three years ag-o Marcus Daly, the principal owner and manager of the Anaconda, told me that he had spent hundreds of -thousands hunting for another copper mine like the Anaconda, and the hunt was vain. He told me then from his experience of mining no such mine would ever be found again as the Anaconda, and yet Knob Hill and Ironsides and their extensions will cast it completely in the shade. They will quarry and not mine these Greenwood properties when they are ready, as they quarry out the most famous cop- ��� per mine on earth, the Rio Tinto. But the Rio Tinto is nothing beside Knob Hill and Ironsides. If there were not a particle of g-old in the ore Knob Hill would be richer than Rio Tinto, for it contains twice the copper values. But Knob Hill and Ironsides are not only the greatest copper mines, but they are also the greatest gold mines on earth. * ���*'.*. The smelter site for the Knob Hill has been selected, and it ought to be in operation by July -1. I am told thai: the Canadian Pacific will build their own smelters, however, and in that case the Knob Hill smelter will be at the mercy of rivals. This is a point worth considering for those who are putting their money in smelters in the Kettle River country'! F. A. Heinze had a smelter at TraiL It was run -by H. C. Bellinger, and no better team than Heinze and Bellinger could be g-ot to handle a commercial enterprise. But Heinze was at the mercy of one railroad, and he was forced to sell and to sacrifice." [Mr. O'Farrell is in error when he states that the smelter site for the Knob Hill has been selected. In a recent letter received in Greenwood, Mr. Graves states that the site would not be selected until his arrival in the "district.���Ed.] Boundary Valley Lodge, No. 38, I.O.O.F.

The municipal fight is over and the ���electors have decided that Mr. Thos. Hardy shall be mayor for the ensuing year. The electors, in our humble ���opinion, have left the best man for the position at home. Mr. Smailes has nothing to regret. He f ought a, gehtle- manly campaign and is left free to attend to his business affairs. The loss is on the side of the city. The question of who shall be chief ^magistrate rests however with the majority of the electors, and it is to; be hoped that the victors and the vanquished will work for the best interests of the city. Unfortunately many complications are likely to arise because of the result in the aldermanic contest. Two of the candidates, Dr. Jakes and' J. W. Nelson, did not possess the necessary property qualifications to be placed in nomination. The electors were so informed, but those who elected Mr. Hardy also chose to elect unqualified candidates, simply because they were on Mr. Hardy's ticket. If these two elected take their seats, not only are they liable to heavy penalties themselves, but they are likely'to endanger the legality of any transactions of the council. It is of the utmost importance that this matter should be cleared up before they take the oath of office and their seats at the council board.' We regret that the municipal act is so rigid as to disqualify Dr. Jakes and Mr. Nelson. Both, and Dr. Jakes particularly; would make good aldermen, but Mr. Thos. McDonnell withdrew when he learned that his property had not been registered in time, and we think that Messrs. Jakes and Nelson would have acted in the best interests of the city by following his example. THE MUNICIPAL CONTEST. The hot municipal campaign which was carried on for three or four weeks, came to a close on Wednesday night with a crowded meeting in Rendell's hall. Mr. Thos. Miller was again chairman. The candidates and others addressed the electors. : lOarly Thursday morning teams were out and committee men were busy taking voters to the polls. The court house was altogether too small for the mayoralty and two ward elections to be held there, consequently there was a good deal of delay in polling votes particularly between 1 and 2 o'clock, when the majority of the ladies turned out to vote. At 4 o'clock almost every voter in the city had cast his ballot. When the votes for mayor were counted, it was found that Thos. Hardy- had 81 votes, Ralph Smailes 60 and four spoiled ballots, making a total of 145. by far the largest vote ever cast in the city. In the North ward there were numerous combinations voted, and the result was in doubt until the ballots were counted. Fifty-nitie votes were polled in this ward. Mr. Naden headed the list with 37, Mr. Phelan ran an even race with Dr. Jakes until the last, when the doctor secured the third place by two votes. Mr. Galloway was second on the list with 32 votes. The South ward vote was a surprise in many : ways. As was expected J. Sutherland headed the poll with 81 votes out of a possible 107. As in the North ward, there were here some wonderfurcoriibinations of votes which naturally affected the result. While Mr. Barrett received the least votes he also received more plumpers than any other candidate. There were two spoilt ballots in this ward. A noticeable feature of the campaign was the fact that every lady on the voters' list exercised her franchise. The following shows the result: FOR MAYOR. Votes.

It was difficult to secure definite information concerning the contests in other cities. L. A. Manley is reported elected mayor of Grand Forks. Mayor Wallace of Rossland was defeated by A. S. Goodeve, and John Houston, Nelson's mayor since incorporation, was defeated by Geo. Neelands. The C. P. R. intend making a town out of Cascade. Not only will a large smelter be erected at that point, but also extensive work shops. The latter will be a necessity owing to the amount of traffic that will necessarily converge at that point. Work on the construction of the smelter will, however, not begin until construction trains can be run as far as Cascade. W. JAKES, M. D., CM. Office : GREENWOOD HOSPITAL, Greenwood, B.C. OIDNEY S.

The postoffice of Upper Grand Forks lias been re-named Columbia, the name by which the new C. P. R. town at that point will be called. At the present time temporary bridges are being constructed at the old Johnson ferry and hear Columbia, and a'wag-on road made, along the C. P. R. right of way ori the south side of the river, in-order- to divert through traffic from the old town of Grand Forks to Columbia. These will be replaced later on by permanent bridges, paralleling the railway bridges to be constructed at these points. Old settlers in the Christina Lake country are wondering if the present government will treat them as they were treated by the Turner administration. The custom of the latter was to collect taxes of every kind with great regularity, but no money ever being expended in return. lOvery trail and bridge in the district was made by prospectors and settlers.
