Tn many respects the fyear ending Novembpr 30th, 1907,;has been the most trying and ^hajrdest ever experienced inthe history, of your company. In the winter of 1906-7 the .'Northwest was subjected for many weeks to the most fierious fuel famine ever known.?- Fuel was so scarce-at times that iii iprder to secure even a meager supply -of ore from the mines to yonr smelter, our company . had to f Ornish the railroad -company withi;-coal ;' in order to carry On its local '.traffic. When this fuel famine' was relieved, it was too late tfa hiarket our production at the higher prices for copper current in the earlypart of ,1907,, owing to. a great shortage of cars a,ndtheN,fact that onr copper is paid for at quotations of a snbsequent'clate to its /shipment. For detail as to onr operations I refer you to the reoort of onr general' manager, which js on file ,in the office of the company and open to-the inspection of any stockholder. ��� . , j ��� ��� lam more than ever impressed with the necessity, to. bring about the best results forpur stockholders and'to secure profit in operations, it is absolutely necessary that our; mines and���' entire plant should; be run steadily' and :continupusly;0Q their Entire; capacity.

At the time this, dividend was declared we could not'foresee the financial crisis which overcame the entire country^ and the unprecedented decline in the price of copper, which by the month of October, 1907, had fallen-to about half the price at which it was selling when tbe dividend was declared.

Rev.'John Hart, D.D..Bishop of New Westminster, will preach at both the morning and evening service, 11 a.m. and 7.30 p.m. After referring very favorably to the, tunnel project in Greenwood, the Rossland Miner in the following editorial discusses a similiar tunnel scheme there and also has something to say of the general success of such tunnels This enterprise recalls the l��ng tuunel that was projected inthe early days of Rossland by the late J. B. McArthur . between Trail and Rossland, Mr. McArthur at that time was interested in the water power at Bonnington Falls and proposed to turn it into electrical power with which to drive the machine drills in-making the 1 long bore. ���The plan is just as practical as' it was when first projected. Such a tunnel Would tap the mines at a depth of from 1800to 2000 feet. There are two routes which the tunnel could follow: One could cut through Lookout mountain and intersect first the south and then the north belt, while the other could be run so as to tap the north belt alone and the south, belt could:be reached from it by lateral crosscuts. ' In following either bf the two courses a large number of leads would doubtless be encountered and it is reasonably certain that some of theni would be'blwd leads:'tlfat ts-leads which doj not outcrop on the surface, As the tunnel would strike the ledges at such. a depth they would be far below the area of surface disturbance and would'be strong, well defined and easy to follow. A great advantage would be that the ore could be transpor. ted from' the leads to the smelter at Trail at a considerably less cost than at present, as there would be no grades to overcome' in the tunnel. Title as to many mineral claims as possible along the route would have to be secur- ed before the work was inaugurated, in order to secure reasonable advantage from the undertaking. The project is one ��� that promises to yield adarge profit to whoever will carry it out, and that it will be taken hold of by the enterprising before long seems to be reasonably certain. Some day, in the not distant futi.re, ii. is possible the people of Rossland and Trail will be surprised by the announcement that a company has been formed for the purpose of boring the Rossland-Trail tunnel, just as the people of Phoenix and Greenwood were by the recent announcement that the two places were to be connected by a three-mile bore. Long tunnels have been common in the history of the United States. The Sutro tunnel was one of the first of these long mining tunnels. It was constructed principally for the purpose of taking the water from the Cotnstock lode at Virginia city, Nevada. It was built in tbe middle seventies of the last century,and was 20,033 feet in length. Adolph Sutro, who was the builder of the tunnel laid the foundation for a very large fortune from the money he made from this tunnel. Since then a number of much larger tunnels have been constructed in the United States to reach ledges at depth and to keep mines free from water, and in nearly every instance they have proved ^profitable to those who made them..

Another car will be ready to leave about tbe 10th of,March. That will make three cars since'January 1st and four since Mr. Wood started work on the mine last summer. If there were proper railroad facilities for the West Fork, the Sally could ship regulary and steadily. On the Tip-Top, where the electric hoist from the Prince Henry was put in operation a month ago, the ore is improving steadily in the shaft which is now down about 95 feet.

Surely the Japanese question it That ii tke situation. Does not every consideration of patriot- ionv demand that it should be left in tbat way? On behalf of the government of Britian Columbia it is fair to acknowledge that it is has to deal with a public opinion that will listen to reason, and certainly it is reasonable that the difficulty should be settled In a way that will effect the desired purpose withoutbeing offensive to Japan. In view of nil tke facts, would it not be an act of good cittzenship to withdraw the bill now before the British Columbia legislature ? It is not difficult to see that both sides are Inclined to use it as a pawn in the political game. What both sides should do is to leave the Dominion gov-: ernment te teal with it unharras- sed. Tke British Columbia representatives in parliament have set a good examples They have taken tke course which commends itself as patriotic. It is the course which perhaps antagonizes the racial prejudices of the moment. Their constituents may endeavor to punish them for it. If so it will be as honorable to them as kis rejection by tke electors of Edinburgh was honorable to Ma- caulay. It is perhaps not fair, however, to credit the people of British Columbia with intentions William Jennings Bryan, the other day, spoke to an audience of over 2,000 students in Convocation Hall at the University of Toronto. The theme of Bryan's address lay in the famous line��� "How prudently most men creep into nameless graves,' while ��� now and then some great one forgets himself into immortality." It is delightful to hear the old note of the rejected philosophy of Christianity, sounded full and clear by a man who is in the thick of things political, in a land where all the air is contention tost and reverberating with repealed and insistent charges of malicious betrayal of confidence. the last question that should bej*ttd ��entiments which they may not entertain. At all events,' let made the subject^ of party controversy. The great bulk of onr people are agreed upon tke facts. They want to preserve tke good feeling tkat exists between tke two peoples. In the conflict with Russia every chord ot Canadian sympathy chimed with Japan. But the civilization and tke ideals of the two peoples are separated and not assimilable. Canadians are almost to a man, therefore opposed to a large influx of Japanese immigration. They are not, however, disposed to go to the extreme of forbidding it altogether. This is all the less necessary because the Japanese government is voluntaril y set upon limiting it to proportions that might be regarded as negligible. The criticism is made that we should not need to rely on Japan for immunity on so vital a matter. But surely we lose no power over the situation by trusting to tke promises and good neighborhood of the allies of Britain. If these fail ns we still have left the remedy of giving notice for tbe termination of the treaty���denouncing it, as the phrase is. it be said once more that tke clear duty of tke legislature of British Columbia is to leave the Federal government to handle the Japanese difficulty unimpeded and unembarrassed.

That 200,000 pounds of copper should have been exausted long ago, but still quotations, hover pretty close to 13 cents. At this figure there are neither high wages for the miner uor big profits for, the stockholders. Its about time for a change. The report of the Commission on Irrigation has been presented to tke British Columbia government. In Professor Carpenter's section of it, he says : "Undoubtedly nearly all the valleys and benches at an elevation of less tkan 2000 feet may be turned into productive land of high value, particularly if water can be supplied." His estimate of the land in Southern British Columbia capable of being so developed at present is "several hundred thousand acres,">but he admits that this question "is larely an economic one and thus tke limit ckanges from year to year. Land which cannot be developed now, under changed conditions, might justify development.'' All this is in connection with land in the arid belt,, lands re- A most interesting discussion of a question vitally affecting the commercial soundness of tfc,is continent is apamplet. Railway Capitalization, received at the office of this paper this week. On June 30, 1%��, the date of the latest statistical report issued by the Interstate Commerce Commission, the railways ot the United States had an aggregate QJength of 218,- 101 miles and a total capitalization of $11,167,105,992 or at the rate of $51;457 per mile of- line. An average per mile on European railways, which have a total length of 151,918 miles is $123:268 while Great Britain's average is $261.535. Canadian railways have a capitalization of a little under $60;000 per mile. The author quotes various authorities among whom is President Hadley, of Yale,'to sustain his argument ���that A merican Railways including it is supposed, equipment of all kinds, could not be reproduced for an average of $50,000 a mile. The writer also says that more than one third of all railway shares and more than one sixteenth of all railway bonds brought no return to their owners, during the most prosperous period of American history. By Thomas W. Lawson and by the ordinary magazineNwriter of the States, the mind of the public has been simply saturated with the idea that all is corruption and rottenness in the financial system of their country. The thing is bearing its results in a profound lack of confidence in the financial institutions of the country which affects not only them against whom it is directed but indirectly touches, everyone and reduces the country's power to recover-from a period of distress. If it is true, what is being suffered today is simptyjthe pain that marks the eradication of the disease. If it is not true, the critics have inflicted a severe, most culpable, and exceedingly unpatriotic attack attack on the best-interests of their country. "Which is it ? , The District Ledger of Fernie wants "to see all the foolish, ill��� erate, anarchistic, and * selfish motives aad sayings" of the socialist party stopped. Complaining of many who are "abusive of the present conditions, it says : 'They do not think an<l work quietlj and properly to attain their ends. They go blustering aloud about this man- who has accumlated wealth and that man who is owner and controller of such add such." All we can say to the Ledger is this, "Morepbw- er to your elbow.". When, the Socialist party comes to itself in this way, eyery good man will be ready to think afyout and discuss ��� i Socialism. But the editor of the Ledger will find tbat it is a far cry from where many of his comrades stand, to this mile post. The following is one of the amendments to the Municipal Glauses Act*which is under discussion in the Provincial House at the present time. It affects' the power of the Council to legislate on the wood question : ^ (104b.) To regulate the mode of sale and delivery of cordwood, including cordwood brought into the city from outside the corporate. Imits, and to require all cordwood sold to be delivered in vehicles with racks so measured and adjusted as to contain' 'a cord of wood, and for compelling the delivery by the seller A to the purchaser of a ticket correctly stating the measure supplied, and for compelling measurement at the City Market by an official, and payment of a reasonable fee, and giving of tickets of measurement, and for the marking of such cordwood, and for the,keeping of records by such official, and for re; gulating the mode of loading cordwood on vehicles; and for providing penalties for obliterating or defacing tbe mark placed on cordwood by any official, or the alteration or destruction of any ticket.-'and the breach of any regulation. !*�������������� ************** >�����������] ENTITLED TO PARTICULARS .

Mr. Bowser is one of the shrewdest politicians in British Columbia and he never makes a play in parliament except for political advantage. He knows as well as the people of British Columbia know that this act will not be endorsed by the Dominion and that is the reason that he has pushed the matter through the house. There are Imperial reasons why this act will not be endorsed by the Dominion parliament, and n'o one understands those reasons better than Mr. Bowser, but he has taken this act and forces it through parliament for the purpose of making political capital for the party's use.

The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907).

The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day. |
