Vol, IV. GREENWOOD, B,C��� SATURDAY, JULY 23,1898. 98 -N6.-20 f ����� (J f f I '1: H i ���ii II s: ! Two Big Mining Properties in Greenwood Camp That are Being Extensively Developed/ The Owners Are Making an Organized Effort to Place the Mines on a Shipping ' Basis, -'.'������ THE) illimitable mineral resources, the boundless possibilities, the undeveloped wealth, the potentialites and the many other hifalutin phrases that do duty in almost every "write up" of new mining-districts, are no strangers to Bound ary Creek. They did duty when the district was in an undeveloped condition and occasionally they are heard to-day. These phrases sound well btit they did not and do not bring the district a large population of happy contented people. After all that is what the district requires. It will become an ideal '.mining-, district when the hills are teeming-with contented miners each doing- his share of the work of producing- wealth and when the valley is the scene of a larg-e commercial centre, progressive and prosperous because adjacent and tributary thereto are many mines which are= producing- sufficient wealth to pay men's wages and return * their owners handsome profits. The development of the mining- properties and the construction of railways, while they bring a temporary prosperity are simply agents forming the backbone of every mining district���regular and permanent shipping mines. Individual mine owners and incorporated companies are now making strong efforts towards placing their properties on shipping bases. At the present time probably the most extensive preparations are being made by the Old Ironsides Company, lytd. This company and its sister company (if this term is permissable) the Knob Hill Gold Mining Company, are the product of the genius of Mr. Jay P. Graves of Spokane one of the shrewd mining operators of that city, famous in the Northwest for its successful mining men. Mr. Graves acquired control of the Old Ironsides and Knob Hill properties. He was fully convinced that he had secured properties which could be made paying mines and believing this it was not a difficut matter for him to make others agree with his view. The result was the organization of strong financial men, into two mining- companies. The Old Ironsides Company was incorporated with a capital of $1,000,000. Mr. S. E- Rig-gs, a prominent Spokane druggist,'is'the president; Mr. Jay P. Graves, Vice-president and Managing-director, and Geo.-,W. Wooster, cashier of the Exchange National Bank, secretary-treasurer. The Knob Hill Gold Mining Company has a capital of $1,500,000. Mr. S. H."C. Miner of the famous Granby Rubber Company is president; Jay P. Graves vice-president and managing-director and A. E. White of Montreal? secretary- treasurer. Mr. Miner owns a larg-e number of shares in both companies. The companies' properties are situated in Greenwood camp about six miles from the city of Greenwood. There is a good wag-on road to both. They were located when the eld mineral Act was in force and consequently are 600 feet by 1500 feet. Both are crown granted. It will, take some time to postively determine the min eral formation of the claims. Either the hill on which they are situated is one solid mass of ore Or contains a series of wide parallel ledges. In all probability the latter is the correct assumption and both claims contain more than one of those enormous ore bodies which are striking characteristics of Boundary Greek mining properties. East September a plant was installed on the Old Ironsides mine. It consists of a 50-horse power boiler, a steam ; hoist, a Cameron pump and two Rand drills. With this plant good work was done on the Old Ironsides but for the purpose of developing the Knob Hill and also carrying on more aggressive work on the Old Ironsides the plant lias been increased. E. M. Aldrich of Rossland is now placing in position a ten-drill compressor recently purchased from the Canadian Rand Drill Co. This compressor will be at' work next week. The air will be forced through pipes from the Old Ironsides to, the Knob Hill a distance of about 1000 feet to work the'drills on the latter property. On the Old Ironsides a shaft has been sunk a 170 feet. The first 80 feet is through ore and the balance in the foot- wall. At 100 feet a drift of 108 feet crosscuts what is supposed to be the main ledge. For 80 feet this drift runs through solid ore. Up to the present time but little work has been done on the Knob Hill outside of surface work such as open cuts. A tunnel is now being run in at the north end of the claim to cross cut the main ledge at a depth of 150 feet. The tunnel is in 100 feet, every foot being in ore of fair value. .The intentions of the Old Ironsides Company is to sink = to the 200 foot level and drift eastward to the -'main ledge. As soon as this is done the. company will stope for shipping ore. The ore from both properties is excellent smelting ore carrying its own fluxes. The- surf ace values from the Old Ironsides run from $9 to $12 and from $12 to $30 at 100 feet. The Knob Hill ore will probably yield similar values. Were there any facilities for shipping the Old Ironsides could be placed in a position for steady shipping within sixty days. It will be seen that both companies intend utilizing the one plant for the development of their properties. The buildings are located on the Old Ironsides. They consist of a shaft house and compressor room, office, sleeping and boarding houses and superintendent's residence. Owing to a larger number of men now employed, a large boarding- house will be erected convenient to the workings on both properties. An excellent water supply is secured through pipes from an underground stream on the Victoria claim. In addition to a good water supply, both properties are heavily timbered insuring plenty of fuel for several years. The companies are fortunate in securing good men to locally manage their properties. W. Y. Williams, the superintendent, has had a long- and successful experience in the management of mines. For several years he was superintendent of one of the big- mines of the Cour d' Alene district. Mr. J. F. Hemenway, the agent for both companies, is an experienced business man who will successful!}'' look after the increasing business in connection with the employment of so.many-men. There are now 28 men employed. The pay roll will amount to nearly $3,000 per month. The force will be slightly increased as soon as the compressor plant is installed. The Phoenix, .ZEtna, Fourth of July and Victoria, adjoining claims are owned by shareholders in the companies. Some development work is being done on these properties. The Old Ironsides and Knob Hill companies have plenty of working capital. The shareholders are some of the prominent moneyed men of the country. They own two of the most promising properties in the district. They are making- every preparation to make their mines shippers. With transportation facilities and chtap treatment, they are sure to materially assist in making Boundary Creek an ideal mining district by employing a large number of men, by producing- wealth and by securing- for themselves handsome dividends on the capital invested. ������** m*i THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES. PUNISHMENT FOR SELFISHNESS. The business men of the British Columbia Coast cities are now beginning to realize that they made a serious error in opposing- the Corbin charter. The Crow's, Nest railway is nearing completion to Kootenay Eake. Already the C. P. R. Co., has booked freight in carload lots from eastern points to this route. Active construction is 'being pushed on the railway from Robson to Boundary Creek. No bona fide effort is being made to construct the Penticton railway. The business men of the Coast cities worked to defeat the Corbin charter because they were afraid the railway when constructed would carry goods not purchased from themselves. They now find that they were playing into the hands of the eastern merchants. The eastern merchants will soon have direct connection with the rich mining regions of Southern British Columbia. The Coast merchants made every effort to kill the only railway which would give them direct connection. Had Mr. Corbin been allowed to build, the road would be-now almost completed. Victoria and Vancouver merchants could ship goods direct to Boundary Creek via Spokane. From all appearance the Robson railway will be constructed before the Penticton road is properly begun. The eastern wholesaler will have the advantage. The selfish Coaster has blindly worked against.his own interest. Under the circumstances he can scarcely expect sympathy from Boundary Creek. The people of Victoria are handicapped by the moneyed mossbacks. They see no merit in any scheme that does not benefit Victoria to the exclusion of every other portion of the province. Their selfishness isolates their city and antagonizes those who would like to be their business friends. Men Are Scarce. A dispatch from Brooklyn says that the construction work is going on smoothly. The contract for the 3,700- f obt tunnel has been let, and operations on it will commence as soon as machinery can be got on the ground. The tote road is completed to the summit, and there is considerable travel from here to Grand Forks, Cascade and Midway over the trail. The tote road will be pushed through to Cascade City with all possible haste. Men are scarce. There is work for 1,500 more than are here at present. Unregistered Voters. All residents of the district, properly qualified, whose names do not appear on the provincial voters' list, should register at once. The uncertainty of the last election may result in another general election within a short time. There are over one hundred men resident in Boundary Creek who have so far neglected to register. They should lose no time in doing so. Geo. Miller returned on Monday from a trip to the West Fork. m pi 'SSCS wc'f> IS We can quite understand it, but there one thing' of more importance to the people jiving in the Boundary Creek district than =?i?S' '=B��5 And that is where yo can get the common necessaries of life.

Fletcher has gone to the West Fork to carry out some improvements on his pre-emption there. Mr. Fletcher has a group of 17 claims in that vicinity, from which he has received some high assays, some running $135 in gold. Frederick R. Marvin, one of Spokane's brightest newspaper writers, visited Greenwood and surrounding mining- camps this week. He is securing data for a series of magazine ai tides. Mr. Marvin left Greenwood for Republic and expects to return here in a few weeks. The volunteer fire department held a meeting' on Saturday evening, when Iy. B. Pearse was chosen fire chief. Mr. Pearse has also been chosen night watchman. He has had considerable experience as a member of the Seattle fire department and also as a member of the Seattle police force. The current issue of the .Gazette contains a notice of registration of the City of Paris Gold Mining- company. The head office is in Spokane, and the capital of the company is $1,200,000. The company take over the City of Paris mine, and Henry White of White's camp is the attorney. The provincial government should lose no time in awarding the contract for the new school building. The present building is too small for the number of school children in the city. Unless the contra.ct is awarded at once, there will be scarcely time to properly construct the building before the vacation comes to a close. A large number of freighters came in this week with goods from Marcus. P. F. Richardson, a well known coast drummer, was in Greenwood this week. Geo. Seymour of the Windsor hotel has returned frpm a business trip to Rossland. C. A. Carman a Vancouver commercial man paid Greenwood a business visit this week. ���D..-R. Campbell, J. Cameron and M.

He is occupying the pulpit of Mt. Pleasant Church fona few Sundays. One of the big boilers for the Mother Ivode was taken to the niine this week. Twelve horses were required to haul it. The boiler is the largest ever brought into the district! ; Rev. Father Palmer will conduct services in the Catholic church to-morrow, as follows: High mass and sermon at 10:30 a. m.; evening devotions and sermon at 7:30 p. m.

Ivarge weighing scales have been placed near the building and will be a great convenience to those selling produce. G. Arthur Rendell left Newfoundland on the 15th inst, and is expected home about the end of the month. Charles Rendell will not return until fall. He has gone prospecting on the northern end of Newfoundland where some rich mineral discoveries have recently been made. The second boiler for the Mother lyode mine reached Greenwood yesterday. ��� .. E). M. E}. Munns left yesterday for Rossland, where he will spend several weeks. Mr. England, the C. P. R. engineer, and his men have arrived at Cascade " City.'' C. M. Shaw, C. E}., has surveyed the claims recently purchased by Messrs. Cargill and Wick wire. J. W. Nelson of the Pioneer hotel is running a pipe from the waterworks into his hotel building. Tax Collector Taylor collected most of the licenses for the current half year during the past week. J. R. Seatle and W. R. Seatle, Lyon- don, Eyng., are visiting Greenwood and surrounding mining camps. C. Kingsley Milbourne, Nelson, arid W. P. Dickson, Kaslo, were among the- arrivals in the city this week. T. P. Mclntyre traveler for J. H. Ashdown of Winnipeg, the well known hardware man, paid Greenwood a business visit this week. All cheques and legal documents coming from the American side now bear a neat stamp, a contribution to the war tax of the country. Real estate at Cascade City is advancing in price. Half a lot opposite Rocheseri's store sold lately for $300 cash, lot. A hotel will be erected on this Over $8,000 worth of work is to be done on the Algonquin group on Cascade mountain, near Cascade City, in order to get the crown grants for seventeen claims. J. E}. Boss has several men at work on the Brooklyn and Stem winder. Mr. Boss has fitted up an assay office near the Brooklyn hotel and is carefully sampling the ore as the work progresses- The telephone line is now running to Grand Forks, The poles are,strung along the road on this side of Grand Forks, and the line will soon be. in Greenwood. The company is under contract to have it completed to Green*- wood by August 15. '��� . ��� 6"' ' There is a 2 per cent, discount on Canadian money in Spokane now. The change was brought about by the Spokane banks. The reason for the change is not given. It may be that the bankers took this way to show their appreciation of the Anglo-American alliance. A. M. Mcintosh, of Nelson, arrived in the city this week and intends remaining here. He is a well-known contractor who has invested heavily in Nelson real estate. Mr. Mcintosh is very favorably impressed with Greenwood and will probably make investments here. By the time all the streets of Greenwood are macadamized after the style opposite the Russell Hardware Company's store house, it will be necessary to build overhead roadways for the traffic. Huge rocks from excavations for building purposes make streets of a. permanent character, but we are afraid they do not add to their utility. Until the present we were under the impression that the streets were reserved for traffic. It appears however that they are to be used as convenient dumping grounds. I.I fcv k / THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES. Placer Gold. A veteran placer man arrived from EJock Creek this week with some coarse .gold. He had worked with several men who have tapped the old Victoria flume for sluicing purposes. They are meeting with good success and are likely to make quite a clean up this summer. Before leaving for Greenwood, the Miner panned for two days jand succeeded in* securing over $14 'worth of coarse gold which was sold to D. McEylmon, the jeweler. He reports that considerable work is being done on Baker Greek where discoveries have recently been made. GREENWOOD AND DISTRICT. Parties have been using dynamite to kill fish in Christina lake. T. R. E/lla, traveler for ' Mct/ary stoves, arrived by Friday's Penticton stage. A. K. Stuart, Collector of Inland Revenue, returned yesterday from Christina Ivake. ���.���������' , Mr. Graham of Evdwards' ferry has bought T. Townsend's interest in the Grand Forks brewery; Mr. Rochesen is erecting a store at Evnglish Point Bay, Christina I^ake, on the Trail between Brooklyn and Cas- cede. The wagon road from Brooklyn is now within two miles east of the summit. Sixty men are at work on this road. , r ������.,.��� The C. P. R. have made an arrangement with the Cascade City townsite people regarding lots and station grounds. A trail is needed very badly from Iyavalley's to EJnglish Point. Some of the promised road work has been done around Christina I^ake. J.P.Harlan has decided to go to Manilla instead of Cuba. He left Spokane last week for San Francisco where he intends to enlist. Peter Genelle got the contract for all the bridge timber and trestle work near Cascade City. A great deal of trestle work is required in this district. Mr. W. D. Glaze of Midway has secured the contract for twelve miles of wagon road in Kootenay. The contract was awarded by the provincial government. Another effort will be made to secure the charter for the Kettle River Valley Railway. Messrs. Bodwell & Irving, solicitors for the company are advertising the usual notice. There is a great rush of men into the Burnt Basin district. Work is being done on the EJdison group, Solid Gold and other claims. Several sales have recently been made of Burnt Basin claims. Nominations were held in Cassiar on July 15th and polling will take place on August 6th. Captain Irving and W. D. Clifford are the government candidates. D. MacTavish is running- for the opposition. ' J. Dorsey has applied to C..A. R. I^ambly for a license for the new hotel which is being erected on Wm. Forrest's pre-emption at the bend of Mc- Rae creek which is close to the Burnt Basin mining camp and on the railway route. The Forrest ranch is being turned into a townsite. A- Quiet Week. Real estate was quiet last week and but few transfers were reported. A few lots exchanged hands at good prices but the sales were not so extensive as the week previous. Several prospective buyers; are in the city however and it is quite probable that some big sales will be made next week. There is also a temporary lull in the building- boom.. No new contracts were let during the week but the architects are preparing plans for some large buildings that are to be erected shortly. Good progress is being made with the many buildings in course of construction. * a m b Is the Best Scotch Whisky -AND- The Best Canadian. SOLE AGKNTS R. P. Rithet & Co.

SHOULD RESIGN. The British North America Act furnishes no machinery by which a defeated government can immediately be forced ' to resig-n. If Hon. Mr. Turner, disregards practice and precedent he may retain office until the legislature is called and he is defeated by the members there. It is true that the JUieutenant- governor may carry into effect the wishes of the- people expressed at the polls and dismiss his advisers. Such, was the course practically adopted by Ivord Aberdeen when the conservative administration attempted to cling to office after its defeat at the last federal election. To do so is likely to engender bitter, feeling and is scarcely in accordance with the popular conception of representative .government. Unless Mr. Turner wishes to be kicked out of office he should gracefullv resign at once. He has been defeated honorably and he should acknowledge'his- defeat by'making'-way for the victors. An attempt,to bolster up a lost cause by clinging to office and using every expedient and artifice to secure a majority for himself is anything- but dig-nifi- ed and we are greatly mistaken if it will be tolerated by the L/ieutenant- ���governor. The popular vote is strongly against Mr. Turner. A reference to the total vote polled will show that a large majority of the people were against the administration but owing to the unfair redistribution bill the . majorit_v of the people are not equitably represented in the house and consequent^ the number, of opposition members is not as , large as could be desired. As soon as the opposition are in power a fair redistribution should be passed immediately. An election fought under such a measure will not give the Turner party half a dozen members in the house. RAILWAY NOTES. W. T. Tye, Chief engineer; of the C. P. R. and J. K. Stevens, Chief engineer for the contractors arrived in . Greenwood last Saturday coming over the surveyors' trail from Brooklyn. Mr. Stevens stated that tip to that time but slow progress had been made on the wagon road owing to the absence of men. Arrangements had been made,however,whereby men were coming, in faster and he expected the road . to be completed to Cascade City within 30 days. The contractors were getting men from all-over the continent, many returning from the Teslin I^ake country. Mr. Stevens also stated that until the contractors could have some assurance that the supply of men could be incresed no effort would be made to scatter the work but that it would be concentrated on the worst portions of the road during the good weather. He expected to , have about 2000 men at work at the summit near the North Fork early in August and possibly at other points on this side of the divide. Mr. Stevens was one of the Chief engineers for the Great Northern Railway but resigned his position to accept that of Chief engineer for the contractors. It is stated that Mr. Tye has definite- ly announced that the station in Greenwood will be across Boundary Creek on the level bench there. This meets the wishes of all the people and calms those who feared that their property would be ruined by the railway run-, ning on this side of Boundary Creek. Two sub-contracts have been let along Christina L,ake, one for three miles and one for five miles. It is- reported that a large trestle is to be erected across Kettle river at Cascade The contract for widening to stand- : ard gauge the Columbia & Western railway between Rossland and Trail has been awarded to Winters, Parsons & Boomer, The work is to be completed bv October 20.

Since the reference to the mail service published elsewhere, was written, the welcome news has been received from Mr. Hewitt Bostock, M. P., that in response to his application for a daily mail service between Greenwood arid Grand Forks, the postoffice department at Ottawa has agreed to inaugurate, the service at the rate of $25 per month. This will probably remove the many inconveniences to which the people have been subjected during- the past few months and it is hoped that in the future a regular service will be maintained. Mr. Bostock has also succeeded in securing a postoffice for Greenwood Camp and Thos. Roderick has been appointed postmaster. This will be a great convenience to the large number of men employed in the vicinity. The post office will be located in Wynkop & Stevens' store. The people in the district greatly ap preciate Mr. Bostock's services in securing an improved service. Mr. Bostock's popularity as a representative of the people is principally due to the fact that he is always ready to listen to the wishes of his contstituents and never neglects to interest himself in their behalf.

The following from New Westminster will throw considerable light upon the subject : " In the police court yesterday morning two test cases were tried with reference to the Election Act. The Guichon and the Colonial hotels, after having legal advice in the matter, opened their doors after 4 o'clock on the day of July 9th, provincial election day, for which they were summoned by the police.

The Rossland Miner is politically almost as fickle as the Grand Forks Miner. Previous to the election, the Miner told the people that James Martin had no ability, .that he could not properly represent the people, and that he was lacking- in many'qualities,, necessary in a successful member. After the election it seriously urges that James Martin be. made minister of mines, because he could fill the position better than any other man in the "house. Mr. Martin is now a man of ability and a credit to the District of Rossland. Now, Mr. Martin has not improved very much in the two short weeks which have passed since the " election. In fact there was scarcely room for improvement. The change for the better is in the Rossland Miner. It belongs to that class of newspapers that have no political principles, that fight for the party in power in order to secure government patronage, and is willing* to change just as soon as that government is defeated. There are several of those papers in the province ; the Rossland Miner is about the worst. We hope that the new, government will allow it to fast for some time before feeding it on government pap. ������.'"���..,' ' ' '��� POLITICAL CRISIS. The opposition caucus to be held at Vancouver on the 21st may clear the air somewhat. Doubtless some definite line of policy will be agreed on for the purpose of ousting the govenrn- ment from power. The sooner the opposition can force a. fresh appeal to the people the more certain we are of a strong government. And the country needs a strong government. The present condition of.affairs though a neces- , sary transition period from one regime to another cannot be prolonged without grave injury to the business interests of the province. If the opposition could pass a redistribution bill before appealing- to the people it would be very desirable, but if that is not practicable a areneral election would give the opposition plenty of backing to organise a strong- progressive government.���Rossland Eeader. Strathmore Ore. The shipment of ore from the Strathmore to the Tacoma smelter has turned out anything' but satisfactory. Mr. McVicar who had charge of the work sampled the ore very carefully and . never got a less result than $160 to the ton. The smelter only gave a little over $60 to the ton which would leave but little .profit ' after mining and freighting to Marcus. Mr. C. Scott Galloway is now in correspondence with the smelter endeavoring- to find out the reason for the low smelter values. The Strathmore ore has been sampled many times by different parties, and the values received were never as low as those given by the smelter. Otto Dillier has returned from a prospecting trip to the south half of the reservation. Delicious Toothsome TOBAOOOS... WILLS' Famous "Navy Cut," "Traveller," and other lines of Tobaccos.

WHERKAS under and by virtue of section 24 of the "Municipal Clauses Act, 1896," it is enacted that " The Council of Every Municipality shall divide the same into Wards, so as to allow the different portions to be equally represented in the Council, as near as may be on the basis of the assessed value as shown on the last revised assessment roll:" Be it therefore enacted by the Municipal Council of the City of Greenwood as follows : 1. The Municipality of the City of Greenwood -shall be divided into two wards, namely : North ward and South Ward. . 2. The said North ward shall, consist of all that portion of laud lying within the said municipality, north-of the following defined boundary : Commencing at a point where the center line of'Greenwood street produced intersects the eastern boundary of the said Municipality,thence westerly, following the center line of Greenwood street to thei ntersection of the center line of Coppepstreet, thence north along center line of copper street to the intersection of the center line of Deadwood street, thence west along the center line of Deadwood street produced to the western boundarj^.of said Municipality. 3. The said South ward shall consist of all that portion of land lying within the said municipality lying to the south of the boundary, heretofore described in clause 2.

Everyone who has so far returned from the northern gold regions ,is a millionaire. Column after column is given by the coast. papers in describing how easily prospectors have washed wealth out of the banks of the tributaries to the Yukon. While such,.. a course may induce a few to venture northwards the cruel experiences of the inexperienced gold seekers have become generally known and the rush will not be great this year. Even the San Francisco Examiner has given up the work of booming the Klondyke. East year this paper took the lead in publishing fake stories concerning the Yukon gold fields. It Has now come to the conclusion that it is not a poor man's country and only those with plenty of money should venture into the inhospitable regions. In all probability but little will be heard regarding the Yukon gold fields after this season. Attention which was temporarily diverted will be again turned towards the more permanent gold fields of Southern British Columbia. Capital will pour in and the quartz mines will be developed. Boundary Creek is rapidly becoming known in the money .'market' and this district is sure to get a fair share of mining investments. INSPECT THE MINES. A provincial mine inspector having been appointed, he should lose no time in visiting this district. We do not profess to be mining engineers but we do know that the opinion is prevalent that some of the mines now being operated in the district are not as safe for the employes as they ought to be. The opinion is not confined to Boundary Creek proper but to Camp,, McKinney and Fair view as well. In every new mining camp where the mines are in an experimental stage their operators generally show :a greater anxiety for the discovery of ore bodies than for the safety of the men. The mine inspector should teach them that the men's lives are to be properly safeguarded- East week a miner met his death in a mine in this district. The coroner's jury exonerated every one from blame. We know that accidents are sometimes unavoidable but it is surprising to ordinary people if the genius of mining men is not sufficient after so many years' experience, to invent some method whereby a miner working at the bottom of a shaft is not running the risk of having his brains knocked out ;by the heavy bucket used in the mine. The visit of the mine inspector ought to be productive of much good. Those who are now engaged in the work of developing mines ought to receive every encouragement; at the same time they ought to be forced to use every possible contrivance necessary to properly safeguard the lives of the men. TIMBER MEN. J. Poupore and P. Genelle* the timber contractors for the Canadian Pacific Railway company, spent a few days in Greenwood this week. Their object was to look over the country with a view to seeing whether they could secure a sufficient amount of timber for the rather heavy work on this side of the North Fork. They visited the North Fork district^ and in all probability will start a camp in that vicinity. Messrs. Poupore & Genelle have been connected with the C. P. R. for several years. Their present headquarters are at Nakusp. They have already supplied several million feet at Brooklyn, rafting it down the Arrow lake. FIRE 0FE1CERS.

BcaasHiEosaQEjr ficS^nX'^Z��&ZX^^~SK30*3*'ILZZ3i��EBLy& '*����Ii��&T��.*'.,&Jl& INDEED WONDERFUL! The Grand Forks Miner is to be congratulated upon its fertile imagination. The excitement of an election contest spurs this remarkable journal to descriptions that excel anything given to the world by Baron Munchausen. East week it published a wonderful table showing that Boundary Greek district can ship to reduction works at Grand Forks,5.4S0 tons of ore daily! To insure a sufficient supply for the works the Miner also points to the fact that the mines "just over the line but tribuatary to a smelter at Grand Porks could ship 475 tons daily ! The Miner is altogether too modest. A smelter that would do justice to the importance of Grand Forks could easily treat more than 5000 tons of ore daily. In its pal- ��� dilation it does the Volcanic an injustice. Two hundred tons daily is too small a quantity from this famous property. The Volcanic could easily be placed at the head of the shipping list with sa.j 1,000 tons per day and then there would be sufficient ore in sight to run a Grand Forks smelter. The Miner very properly points out that Grand Forks has a down hill pull on the smelter question and that " no mine owner with the least particle of common sense is going to haul his ore up hill to a smelter." We hope that Mr. Keffer of the Mother Eode will carefully study the article in the Miner. His mine is very generously placed at the head of the list with 250 tons daily /and as a slig-ht return for this boom for the property he should at the risk of being called foolish make every effort to haul his ore to the Grand Forks smelter. The good people of Greenwood would then see the ore hauled past their fair city, hauled past a magnificent water supply, past the best of lime quarries, and would see the iron horse tugging it over two ranges of mountains to that argosy at Grand Forks. But then the Mother Eode is tributary to Grand Forks. The Miner says so and it must be so. 5 Mr. Macfarlane of the Sunset should also be a ha'pp3' man. It is true that his property can onl}'" ship the modest sum of 50 tons daily while the Big- Copper, a property on which no work has been done for years can turn out 100 tons daily. But when it is considered that those 50 tons are to be hauled over the mountains to the smelter at Grand Forks, the only cause of complaint the Sunset owners can have against the Miner is that their daily output was not reduced to say one ton. The Greenwood camp mines are also tributary to Grand Forks and are going to pour their hundreds of tons daily into that city. The Monarch can only give 25 tons daily while the Stemwind- er will give 150 tons and the Gold Drop 150 while the Rawhide will yield only 25 tons. We are anxious to know why these and other invidious distinctions are made. It is scarcely fair to the owners that their properties should be damaged by being reduced to a 25 ton basis while less promising properties are posted at 200 tons. The Miner is too modest in securing ore for the Grand Forks smelter. Since it secures 50 tons from the BrUce on the other, side of Midway, it could easily have gone a few miles farther and dickered for Camp McKinney ores. It might also go to Fairview and on to the Similkameen district. There is nothing- like having a variety of ore to secure the best results from a smelter. There are hundreds of other claims nearer home which might have been rescued from obscurity and placed in the Miner's list. In the interests of the district we hope the Miner will again revise its list at an early date. The capacity of the smelter can be easily increased and by running in a few " wild cats," the daily output could be made 10,000 tons. Those round numbers sound better. We hasten to congratulate the Miner upon its careful summing up of the smelter situation. We think however that the Miner's modesty has restrained it from completing the glowing, panorama. In order to get the best results, the Ee Roi and"War Eagle and Columbia and Kootenay, yea; even the Silver King and Hall mine ores should be carried by the C. P. R. through Mc- Rae pass that they may be mixed with the ores from Boundary Creek. Grand Forks is an ideal smelting point but we fear that tall stack which is a necessary adjunct of every large smelter will be blown down unless the Miner, restrains its marked peculiar ity.. :-.rsa^ra^rTUTfy^g^f^?y^^j-g^g6CT*gFsa�� k**sw*s����j tiFWVi>^#amMLMmttHSa^tt98Emtss��&r,i 1 *3>?

Joseph, Martin, who has been returned to the ^Legislature of British Columbia as one of the leaders of the opposition and who will certainly hold a prominent portfolio in the Administration should the Turner government be relieved of office, has-some- ���',.. thing of a record as a fighter against, those entrenched in power. Mr. Margin was born at Milton, Ontario, in 18- -52, and is, therefore,, only ,46 years of age. He began life as a teacher, passed through the Toronto Normal, taught in Ottawa, and in 1882, after a law course, was admitted to, the Manitoba bar on his removal to that province. His power as a debater at once brought him into prominence, and to his reputation as a speaker was quickly added that of a man tenacious in the extreme in whatever he undertook. He entered the legislature of Manitoba in 1883, , helped Mr.'"'Green way'��� to xxmnd the .Harrison Ministry���the survival of the old Norquay regime���to pieces, and in 1888 on the formation of the Greenway government took office as Attorney- General. This position Mr. Martin held till April, 1891, when he withdrew from the government. It was Mr. Martin who introduced and carried through the Manitoba house the famous national school law, which abolished the dual school system, and afterwards, because of the efforts of the late Dominion government to coerce Manitoba into restoring that system, set the whole Dominion aflame. In 1891 Mr. Martin was an unsuccessful candidate tor the Dominion parliament against Mr. T. M. Daly in Selkirk, and in 1893 he carried Winnipeg in a bye-election, coming to Ottawa as the first liberal ever elected from that city. He was beaten in the general election by Mr. Hugh John Macdonald. Mr. Martin went to British Columbia a year ago with a firm belief in the great future of that province. In shaping that future he will doubtless play a prominent part. ���Globe. WAGON ROADS. It is hoped that Boundary Creek district will get its fair share of appropriations for wagon roads this year. Heretofore the Townsite company and the business men paid the money for the construction of roads which ought to have been paid by the provincial government. The district is entitled to an amount of money proportionate to the amount received by the provincial government from it. Nearly all the wagon roads are in need of improvements, and there are also roads required to mining camps where development work is now being carried on. No time should be lost in carrying out the work, because in past seasons the work was delayed until fall, when ���:$],\road construction costs about twice as ^i/ much as it would in the summer. Boundary Creek is the most important mineral section of the Kast Yale district, and is therefore entitled to every consideration in the matter of road building. Rossland. Greenwood.

The utility of wards in a small city has never yet been discovered, but the Municipal Act says that the city shall be devlded into wards. The average city father has a wholesome dread of the Municipal Act, and consequently the1 city has been dissected. : The Municipal Act only recognizes the right of property ; men don't count. So long as the city is : equitably devided according- to the last assessment roll, the law is strictly observed. The distribution of the electors is not to be taken into' consideration. The Municipal Act says so, and the Municipal Act must be obeyed. The Greenwood council struggled with the ward question for several weeks. Some aldermen dared to insinuate that in the closing days of the nineteenth century men should be the basis of representation, and not prop- ertj'. A compromise was effected whereby the citv was divided into two wards, each having an equal amount of property, without an extraordinary in their voting population. The wards are to. be known as North and South. Greenwood street is the dividing line, excepting that the block in which the Imperial hotel stands goes in the South ward. The by-law legalizing this division was finally passed at the regular meeting held Mouda3r evening; at which Mayor Wood presided and Aldermen Barrett, Galloway, Paton and Phalen were,present. , The police commissioners informed the council that they had been .pleased to accept L,. B. Pearce's application for the position of constable and that if the council would arrang-e' for his salary, the commissioners would .swear him in. The council decided to g-ive . $30 per month for constable, the business men to. subscribe the balance of the salaiw, for night watchman and fire chief. Duncan Ross tendered his resignation as city clerk, to take effect - July 31st, or as soon thereafter as a successor is secured. Mr. Ross found that the city work encroached too much upon his o"rn business.. The resignation was accepted with regret,-and a vote of thanks tendered to Mr. 'Roan for his services in the past. The clerk was also authorized to call for applications for the position. . The council discussed the Greenwood hospital at considerable length, but arrived at no conclusion. ��n. Alderman Galloway reported that a< suitable site for; a cemetery to the rear of Scott McRae's property had been suggested by C. M. Shaw, C. K. The clerk was instructed to write to the - '. ��� c' ��� ' chief commissioner of lands and works, requesting that a crown grant be issued to the city for the same. CORONER'S INQUEST. At the request of Provincial Police Officer W. G. McMynn an inquest was held on Monday last to enquire into the cause of death of Hugh O. Thomas, the victim of the accident at the Snow- shoe mine. The coroner's jury were as follows: J. E). Boss (foreman), W.T. Smith,F. M. K- Munns, C. N. Collins, B. F. Mclllrby and J. Iyticy. The coroner, Dr. Jakes, and jury went to the cemetery to examine the body, which had been exhumed, and then visited the mine. After 6 o'clock the evidence was taken at the court house- John Mac- aulay, the foreman, and other employees of the mine gave all the details, connected with the accident, describing the shaft and the system adopted in hoisting and letting down the bucket. From the evidence it appeared that the usual practice had been followed the morning- of the accident. The hook had become bent k in some way and allowed the bale of the bucket to slip out.��� Dr. Foster, told the jury about the condition of the wounded man when he arrived at the mine, and also g-ave his professional opinion as to the cause of death. The taking- of the evidence lasted until after. 12 o'clock, when the jury decided that the accident was unavoidable and, as far as they could judge from the evidence submitted, no blame could be attached to any one. HO IMPROVEMENT. The mail service between Grand Forks and Greenwood shows no signs of improvement.' Fach week' it appears to .vrow worse and less satisfac- * (.5 tory. The stage line takes all that is offered at the Grand Forks postoffice. The driver even threatens to raid the office, but his pleadings are of no avail. The Grand Forks man has evidently come to the conclusion that the surest way to win favor with the postmaster- general is to totally disregard the convenience of the public, distribute mails with the greatest irregularity, and generally do those things which would not be tolerated in any well- regulated or properly-conducted' department. The Grand Forks postmaster may be right. Indead the conviction is rapidly growing upon us that he is right, and that he is simply exasperating the public in order to win favor wi.1h the postoffice department: The irregularity in the mail service is getting serious from a business point of view. Mining men representing outside capital maintain that it is impossible for them to do business in this district if important cables and telegrams are to be pigeonholed at Grand Forks for three or four days. This has happened more than once where the telegrams referred to mining deals involving thousands of dollars. This week there was no letter mail , on Sunday. On Tuesday no Rossland or Grand Forks mail reached Greenwood. Not a day passes but something is lacking. The people who are thus < forced to suffer loss and annoyance are surely entitled to some explanation. Louis Bosshart has returned from a prospecting trip up' Bull creek, where some rich discoveries have recently been made.
