I .���"ranch Office, Russian*!, B. C; MONTREAL, P. Qi Joies D. Swora, Mgr. Superintendent L. L. Patrick of the Poland China mine, ; in the Myers Creek camp, was in the city yesterday. He came in from Chesaw with George B. Median., the Montreal mining operator, who has the bond on the mine. When work was resumed Mr. Patrick was placed in charge of the development. There has alwaj-s been a difference of opinion as to the trend and extent of the ore body on the property. In th^e early history of the camp the fame of the Poland China had spread far and wide. Its surface showing was spoken of as being phenomenal. The quartz was there in abundance, and by a fortunate stroke of luck the early prospecting opened on the surface a rich streak, which carried gold that literally ran away up into the thousands. Today there is on the dump taken from one prospect hole ore that is worth hundreds of dollars to the ton. The quantity, however, is not large. It was this streak that puzzled the original workers of the claim. They believed the vein ran north and south; others had difierent theories, but it remained for Mr. Patrick to settle the question. Mr. Patrick i.*. firmly of the belief that the trend of the ore body is east and west. The vein on the surface, as proven by extensive trenching and many open cuts, measures 65 feet, with a porphyry on the north side and a slate formation on the south. 1 HOW J.EVKLOVED. From Mr. Patrick a Times man gained .-the . following information : The. old workings on the claim were uthiee.shait-.^_When the present people went to work they proceeded-to continue the developemen t of a level from a shaft at a depth of 45 feet, as also to devote considerable time to a thorough prospecting of the surface of the claims. At the 45-foot level from the shaft which was sunk .on the ore body, a cross-cut was run north through the same for a distance of 45 feet. The ore was quartz heavily impreganated with graphite, which gave it a black appearance, carrying iron and streaks of slate. At the same depth a drift wa& run west for 40 feet, and as the drift obtained gieater depth, on account of the slope of the-hill, it was noticable for the last 20 feet that the character of the quartz was changing from the dark material to a much lighter color with here and theie streaks of white quart.,. V *SEV SH._L"T. Thc company have now started a shaft 200 feet wes>t of this old shaft higher up the hill. This "shaft is being sunk on the hanging wall side of the vein. It is a double compartment 4/>_x8 feet in the clear, and isdown 18 feet. Tha Poland China group has just been surveyed. There are 14 men employed at the mine. ON OTHER MINES. Mr. Patrick said that considerable work was being done on the Crystal Butte group.. The management has commenced the running of two crosscut tunnels tos tap the Crystal Butte ledge at depth. Both have; only recently started. Que is being run on the , Crystal Butte claim,... under the present workings, and the other is on the Dead Horse claim, adjoining. On the War Eagle, which adjoins the Wisconsin to the west, they are crosscutting the ore body at the 100- foot level in the shaft. ; It is said that work will shortly be resumed on the Yakima. The claim has had considerable money s.pent on it, opening up $ body of galena that runs well. Those who know the property entertain hopes of it making a 'mine.' ' ' 7 . '".

SIR WILFRID'S PATRIOTISM. Those who claimed that Sir Wilfrid Laurier had no strength outside his charming personality are discovering their mistake. He is always polished, dignified and graceful, but when the opportunities present themselves he shows that he has also all the characteristics of a great statesman. Some twenty years ago Sir Wilfrid fought one of the bitterest elections ever held in the province of Quebec. His opponents accused him of being in sympathy with those misguided Frenchmen who cannot realize that French prestige perished with Cham- plain. He took up the gauntlet thrown down, and made a, noble defense of Canadian liberalism and he won. Today similar tactics are being adopted by his political opponents. A studied endeavor has been made to make Sir Wilfrid and the Liberal government scapegoats for irresponsible men. The conservative party are taking credit for all the loyalty* and patriotism shown during the past few months, and an endeavor is being made to fix the stigma of the disloyal utterances 'of:'-a! few irresponsible individuals on Sir Wilfrid and his government. Those' who pursued such a foolish course got their answer at Sherbrooke the other day. No one can read the premier's., words without being impressed with the fact that they came from a man intensely loyal. Sir Wilfrid said in part: "The mother country is engaged in the greatest war, perhaps, that it has been engaged in -during 7 the century, the war with the Transvaal republic. We believe it our duty as a British colony to take part, in this war and to permit 2000 Canadian volunteers to enlist in the English army and to light for the mother country. We did it because we believe, it our duty to do it in response to the unanimous sentiments of the people of this country. We are a free country; burs is a consti- tu tionai 'government, arid our duty is to put into execution the popular will, and the moment the popular will was known to us ve had but one duty to discharge, and we discharged it of our own free will. There was no power to constrain us to act as we did; but in the plentitude of our legislative in- dependance- we had the right to reply to the popular will, manifested to us. We did not do it for the purpose of lending England a material which she did not need, but we rejoice at - the opportunity of giving to the world a spectacle never seen before���the spectacle of the colonies behind the mother country��� and that we could not remain indifferent when England had a war with one of her enemies. We showed the world that the British empire was above all a land of liberty, and that there was " enough^libertyin-that-empire to make it the duty of every citizen to affirm its unity when the occasion presented. We are told, that French-Canadians have nothing to do with that war. Gentlemen, I am here to speak no language but the language of truth. I am not here to say anything which I would not wish to repeat elsewhere. The war does not affect English and French-Canadians the same way. With Canadians of English origin it was the voice of the blood that spoke, the most powerful voice that can appeal to the human heart. When Canadians of English origin knew that their brethren were fighting in Africa, their blood boiled and they burned to go to their kindred's aid. It was not the same voice that spoke to us of French origin; it was the voice of gratitude, the voice of national solidarity, which summons us all to be united under the flag of the country in which we live." & Western railway. They enjoyed the comforts of living at a first class hotel and held their annual meeting in the comfortable parlors of the Armstrong. The managing director's report' told about a working shaft, drifts, stoping ore and ore dumps, about a complete mining plant, the near approach of the railway to^the mine and certainty of steady shipments at an early date. A first class hotel takes the place of a fifty dollar shack, a prospect becomes a mine, and a rough looking mining village develope sinto a solid city. All of which makes not a bad showing for two years. THE SHIPPING STAGE. Boundary is now a shipping district. A half dozen mines have already sent ore in carload lots to the smelters; they are ready to maintain a steady shipment as soon as cars are available, and other mines will soon be placed on the shipping list. When the returns are received from the smelters'; the greatness of Boundary as a mining district will then become an established fact. There have been so many disappointments in ".he mining world that the most experienced mining men are wary about accepting any statements regarding prospects as absolute facts. Big ledges and good assay values will not convince them. Steady shipments and smelter returns alone can establish the wealth and permanency of a mining district. pox on the Colyille Indian reservation. There are over forty cases in a pest- house at Nespeliin. The authorities at Republic 'have taken precautions to guard the town against the invasion of the epidemic. Indians as a rule do uot take kindly, to .the. modern methods used to stamp out this terrible epidemic, and there is a possibility that some of them may wander north to escape necessary restrictions. The provincial officers should be instructed to take all precautions to prevent the Indians from the affected district coming in contact with people on this side of the line. ASSOCIATED PRESS SERVICE. PUBLIC OPINION. The strongest factor in influencing public bodies is public opinion. Public opinion was against the C. P. R. when they attempted to coerce the little town of Moyie to accept its harsh terms in reference to the securing of a railway station. Public opinion was against the same company when it undertook to kill the town of Grand Forks by building a rival town in the immediate vicinity. This powerful railway company attempted to run against public opinion for a time but it soon discovered that it was in its interests to regard the wishes of the public. The long and desperate struggle between the railway company and the* citizens of Moyie was ended last week by the C. P. R, building a station at Moyie. Because the people of Moyie would not grant the C. P. R. one half the town for the privilege of having a railway station, the company decided to establish a town two miles farther on and called it Moyelle. The railway company has seen the folly of running against the wishes of the public and has built a station in the original town. It is also understood that the Canadian Pacific railway is encouraging the amalgamation of the towns of Columbia and Grand Forks. Even the Canadian Pacific railway, with all its influencep cannot do profitable tmsiness in the face of public opinion. The Associated Press is improving its service. It is beginning to understand the kind of news the readers of the Times are looking for and is sending it along. The denizens; of GreenT wood are getting tired of live war news and will welcome the following salutatory in last night's dispatches: 'Ne\vYo__k, Jan. 22.���Frank Gould has just imported a new St. Bernard dog from England, which has been added to his7$7S,000 kennel of St.. Bernards at Lyridhurst. He is the largest dog of his class in the country and weighs 238 pounds and cost.$5,000. Our contemporary, the Greenwood Times, now appears as a daily, and a sprightly one it is. It is not a mammoth sheet, but, like the oak and the acorn, with the growth of the interior, it no doubt will expand. We wish it every success. Its enterprise deserves this.���"Vancouver "World.

Every town of any importance in Canada has already contributed largely to the fund for the assistance of those dependent on the brave fellows who j^iigtomgjnj-he Transvaal. Greenwood has been a little slow in taking steps towards making an organized effort to swell the fund, but next week there will be a Pay, Pay, Pay concert in the city and it is hoped that the residents will show not only their appreciation of the efforts of those who worked industriously to make the concert a success but will also tell the world .that Greenwood's loyalty- is something more tangible than mere words and that her citizens are ever ready to assit Tommy Atkins. Every one cannot go to war but real service can be given one's, country without shouldering a musket. Every one in the city should patronize the concert and if not by attending at least by purchasing a ticket. On Smallpox. Dr. Schon, city medical- officer of health, addresses the following communication to The Times regarding the rules and regulations governing smallpox : To the Emtok : .Would you kindly give a i>lace ia your valuable newspaper to the following: " Section 52 (Provincial Board of Health ; re Smallpox). In every health district where smallpox exists, or in which in the opinion of the provincial board of health or the medical health officer, there is danger of its breaking out, owing to the facility of communication with , infected localities, the medical health officer * shall require the vaccination, or revacciriation-, --of- all* persons resident within his jurisdiction who have not been vaccinateel within seven years; and that such vaccination, or revaccination, shall be carried out in,so far as the-same may"be applicable in the same manner as for the vaccination of children." The medical health officer desires it to be stated that -��� he has received intimation from tlie 'provincial board of health that smallpox is epidemic in Spokane and surrounding country. He has been req tested to take all precautions to prevent its entrance into this city, and strongly urged as to the need of vaccinating all unvaccinated adults" and children. By regulations provided, it is incumbent upon any householder knowing or suspecting that any person within his hbusehold.has smallpox to immediately give notice to the medical health officer. A teacher in any school who has reason to suspect-that any pupil is suffering from smallpox, or that smallpox exists at the; house of any pupil, shall notify the medical, health officer immediately- and-prevent-attendauce_of_the pupil. , THE WAR. Two years has worked a complete metamorphis in Greenwood. Three years ago Hon. T. Mayne Daly, Walter Orde, Andrew Kelly, W. A. MacDonald and other directors of the Brandon and Golden Crown company came to Greenwood. They were supposed to come by the stage but they walked up the hills to relieve the tired horses and sometimes walked down because they were afraid to take chances. The annual meeting of the company was held in a shack on Gold Street. The managing director in a well written report enthusied over open cuts and a tunnel and timidly referred to the time when the_ mine could boast of a steam plant. Last night the same directors were in the city. They enjoyed the luxury .of a first class passenger coach and- the scenery along the line of the Columbia The outlook for the British forces in the Transvaal is not so promising as it was a few days ago. Judging from the press dispatches, General Buller's position is rathea a desperate one. Any effort made to push forward towards the release of Ladysmith will likely entail a heavy loss to the British forces. The war is knocking out all the hard and fast theories of the military experts, but the final result cannot for a moment be' doubted. Every war makes its own heroes and its own generals, and it would not be at all surprising if the credit for restoring the prestige of the British arms and bringing the war to a successful issue should fall to one who has not yet won his spurs, simply because the opportunity did not present itself.

WILL IEORPORATE The Citizens of Phoenix at a Public Meeting So Decide. THE PHOENIX HOCKEY CLUB Tht Old Ironsides Con-many to Build Twenty New Cottages���A Ble Smoker Held This Week. Phoenix, Jan. 26���[By telephone to The Times]..���A largely attended meeting of the citizens of Phoenix, including the representatives of the Cameron, Old Ironsides and New York townsites, was held last night at Miners' Union hall for the purpose of taking steps towards incorporation. The representatives of the Old Ironsides and New York townsites opposed incorporation for the present. However, the citizens appeared to be larg-ely in favor of it, and after a lengthy discussion a resolution was passed authorizing a committee of seven to take preliminary steps, with power to raise funds and send a special delegate to Victoria. About 200 were present and the most friendly feeling prevailed. '..he Phoenix hockey club was organized this woek, with IS members. The Old Ironsides company is about to start the erection of twenty more cottages for its employees, located on the Victoria, near the newbunk house. Advices received from Montreal last night confirm the report that steel will be laid into Phoenix this winter and that too very shortly. The C. O. P. held a smoker in their finely fitted hall this week. Songs, and speeches in seven different languages, with clog dances was the programme. The artists included Darraugh, Simpson, Craw ford, Thompson, Wilcox and Doctors Gordon and Slack. The .construction of Vaughan and Mclnnis' cold storage warehouse- on Malcolm avenue is well under way. The- building is, to be 30x95. feet in size and two and a' half stories in height. ' * CONCENTRATED MING NEWS. -1 ������<- . ., �� The sheriff's sale of the property of "the McKinney-Mines, limited, has been postponed from today till Monday.. H. H. Shallenberger was in the city yesterday from Deadwoo'd camp. He is doing surface work on ttieTMoreen claim, which is the southerly extension of the Buckhom and has the same ore body. The present exploration work is to locate the best place to sink. Some 70 feet of trenching has already been accomplished. The claim is surveyed. senger trains have not been run between Greenwood - and Midway. It is anticipated, that a great deal of the traffic to and from Republic will go via Midway for the reason that there is an excellent road between the two places, over which large loads can be hauled. Mr. Holbrook says that Greenwood is glowing rapidly, and a munber of buildings are in process of erection there. One of the largest properties to be incorporated in the vicinity of Greenwood is the Ah There. It is in the Deadwood camp near the Mother _7ode. A good strike of gold-copper ore was recently made on this property." IS ORGANIZED. The McRae Copper. Mines, Limited, acaulre the Ah There Mine. Yesterday the organization of the McRae Copper Mines, limited, was completed. The following gentlemen constitute the board of directors: George D. Leyson, John Robertson, H. B. Madden, John Lucy and Scott McRae. George D. Ley son was elected president of the company and John Robertson, secretary. ' The new company acquires the Ah There and Sydney M. Johnson claims in Dead- wood camp. The company is capitalized for 351,5000,000, in one dollar shares. The first allotment of treasury stock has already been subscribed for, practically the 75,000 block at 3% cents per share being taken on this market, with a little in Spokane. The Ah There, upon which the development has been done is a most promising claim. Recently a Times man examined the underground workings which consist of a shaft down 58 feet all timbered, with a cross-cut east through the. ore body, at the 50-foot level, of 45 feet.' The directors propose ordering a machinery plant at once, and will continue the development down as rapidly as possible. ' The plant will consist of a 20 h. p. steam hoist and a 40 h. p. boiler, sufficient to thoroughly exploit the claim. .. IN THE LABOR WORLD. r ^u^tctjj ���*,.|n.Kn,?t*o��t!

There can be no doubt from the remarks what the character and purpose of that institution is. There never could be much doutit to those who are acquainted with such concerns in other places, or those who are aware of the attempt on the part of those interested in the Alhambra, b}' corrupt means, to get possession of an opposing petition and prevent it from reaching the authorities. Professions of orderliness and obedience to law are simply bosh. But this aside, it is clearly the purpose ot the management to run the lowest place that the city will allow. They must, rely upon the sale of liquor to make it (a house of innocent amusement) pay. Not only so, it will not pay unless a free hand be granted to sell in the boxes "from which comes the bigger, portion of the revenue." This frank confession speaks for itself. It reveals the purpose of the business. "We do not blame anyone for not converting a business enterprise into a philanthropic institution.

A new hotel, livery barn, assay office and other buildings are shortly to be started. Altogether the outlook for British Columbia's latesftownsite is most promising. Yesterday ' a Times representative spent se\ eral hours visiting the mines and prospects iu Deadwood camp. The first property seen was the Sunset mine. The work of timbering the main shaft is now ilown to a depth of 125 feet. At the 1110-foot (adit) level the crosscut to the ore body is in 110 feet. (Juite a force of men are employed on the surface in getting everything in.o shape for the arrival of the new plant. The 80 li. p. boilers have been set up and bricked in. Work will statt alt once on the building-sand 30,- 000 feet of timber has been contracted for to be delivered Hiis week.. Superintendent Johns had also the foresight some months back to order a large supply of steel; iron piping etc., which is at the mine, thereby--saving"to his company a considerable amount as the cost of im.terial has greatly advanced since the order was placed. THE CROWN SILVEJt. Work will stark toi'.ay on the sinking of the shaft on the Ci own Silver claim, adjoining-;the; Sunset and lying ; to the west of the Mother, I,ode. .The claim is owned by the same company 'as: the Sunset-, the Montreal Boundary Mining company*.

It is all timbered and is a substantial piece of work. At the 100-foot level ri statio :, 10x10 feet in size, is now ing c.'l out, preparatory to crossctitting to the ore body at this level. The; shaft will be continued to an indefinite depth. , THE AH THERE. Six men are working on the Ah There. The shaft is down 55 feet and will be continued to the 100-foot level, when a plant will be installed. At the 50-foot level a crosscut of 45 feet was run through the ore body. The McRae Mines, limited, is the name of a company being formed here to acquire the Ah There and the Sydney Johnston claims. THE GREYHOUND. The machinery has been taken off the cars at the temporary siding on the Deadwood camp spur for the Greyhound mine, and. will be immediately taken to. the property.

Cases That Came Before Judge Spinks and the Verdicts. Judge Spinks wns engaged the best part of Tuesday hearing cases in Mrs.- Foreman 's hall, some of which were settled and others adjourned to the next meeting of the county court. The most important case bn the docket was that of John Mulligan v. L.'Blue, A. Fisher, J. L,indsay and the Phoenix -L/Uinbercompatiy. The action was for damages by reason of the defendants appropriating to their own use the timber on the plaintiff's mineral claim. Following is the written judgment handed.down in this case::" The mind- is entitled to the use of all the timber on his claim for mining purposes. Any one who takes timber from his claim interferes with that right and commits a trespass. The defendant has cut and carried away trees off the plaintiff's claim, the exact quantity the plaintiff eannot; show; but he claims for 91 trees,.and the defendant does not contradict that claim. :.I give judgment for $45 as damages." ; The other cases on the docket were disposed as follows: P.

DIRECTORS' MEETING. | NEW SHIPMENT OF J $ Clothing �� Hats and * ��� f Gaps, Neckwear, Etc., Etc. 4* Brandon and Golden Crown Officials Hold a ; Meeting and Visit the Mine. Yesterday the visiting directors of the Brandon and Golden Crown Mining company, under the guidance of managing director, George H. Collins, paid a visit to the mine. On their return the president of f he company, Hon. T. Mayne Daly, Q.C., was seen and expressed himself as being well pleased with the outlook for the mine and the work of development. -��� We propose sfiippin:g=7] ust-^as^ so6n-*as=cars=can"be obtained at Hartford Junction, where the steei is laid on the Winnipeg spur, a distance of a little over a mile from the mine. On the dumps we have fully 2,000 tons of ore. immediately available for shipping to the smelter. Briefly the mine is developed by amain working shaft to a depth of 320 feet, with levels at 100,150 and 300 feet respectively. At the 100-foot level a crosscut is being run to the ore showing that was exposed on the surface by the railroad grade. This work is in 120 feet. From the 150-foot level we have obtained in-the drifts some of our best grade of ore. An upraise from this level connects with the No. 1 level. Here we have a large body of ore blocked out for stoping purposes. At the 300-foot level we are also driving a crosscut to encounter the Winnipeg lode. This crosscut has progressed a distance of 350 feet from, the shaft. We have arrauged to have built as soon as possible ore bunkers. When the railroad spur is completed to the .Winnipeg mine we shall be in a first class position to make steady shipmenst to the smelter. -You can say lhat the board of directors are perfectly satisfied with the result of the trip, we have not only had an enjoyable time in your city, but we return home more than ever convinced of the greatness of the mines of the Boundary Creek district���-and especially of the Brandon & Golden Crown." Monday evening the board of directors held ai meeting in the Hotel Armstrong to discuss the business of the company generally, and decided upon a policy, as outlined by Mr. Daly, for the shipment of ore. Those present at the meeting were: President, T. Mayne Daly, Q. C, Rossland; Andrew Kelly, Brandon, Man.; W. A. Macdonald, Q. C, Nelson;, W. A. Fuller, Spokane; W.

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).
