MARCH 29. 1913 $2.50 Per Year One of the largest mining deals ever made in North Kootonay was com - pleted a few days ago, when an American syndicate purchased on a working bond for a sum reported io be S2l)0,000, a group of four claims some two miles from Cambotirne. The properties included in ihis big ileal were the Spider and May Hell, Excise and Eclipse. Those claims aro owned by H. M. Evans and F. C. Wrightson, who own the Spider and May Bell, while R.E. Drew and Geo. McLaren own the Excise, while thc Eelipse Is owned by a Mr. Smith. TheS' properties arc high grade silver lead propo'itions. On the Spider there are two tunnels, one 135 feet long, whieh attained a depth of 150 feet, while another 7,"i feet long al a tlepih of JO feet, shows good ore. On tho other claims, less work has been done. Pay ore is shown up in tun - liels and stripping. The nei assays of the Spider are $56 in all values. The American company which has i.aken over tho group according to the terms of thir bond will start work hy May 1st and will employ 25 men. This big deal means much for the camp as there is very little doubt but that the bond will te lifted. Another fact that tend- io ,v revival of mining in this famous Cambourne camp, is the fact that the Dominion government is at present experimenting on ih- treatment of separating zinc Irom Silver hnd ore, whieh will put thi- camp on iis feet.

Ottawa, Mai'e-h 27.—The important fai't that if the conttaits aie let now for the' building of the three battle - ships which it is proposed be Cana- ' da's addition to the British navy,they j will not be ready to be placed in commission before tbe next Dominion general election, is now emphasized. In ease it should then be the will of 'the Canadian pio,>le to recall these I .ships and make them a part of a j proposed naval service, it will then •be perfee'tly feasible to follow that course. This was establi>hed in a governmenl statement issui-d yesterday. In addition the manifesto said: "It cannot be too seiongly empba- | sized that the' clause which Sir Wil- j fried Lai.i um , n 1 Irs followers have ' been obstructing .lining the last two weeks i- ilie first clause ef the resolution which Sir Wilfrid Laurier pro- ' posi'd I.y way of an amendment on December 1_' last. Kvery member of i the opposition, including Sir Wilfrid , Laurier hims'It, voted for that clause on February 13 last, as part of his | amendment. NO BRUTE FORCE. "There has been no display of brute force in the debate except on the part of those who flrst voted for this e-lausj and th.n obstructed it- passage. "The clause in (question, which thus forms part of Sir W Urid's resolution, proposed cn December 12 last, is as follows: " 'From and out of tho consolidated revenue fund of Canada there may be paid and applied, a sum not exceeding $35,000,000 for the purpose of immediately Increasing the effective naval forces of the Empire' "If Sir Wilfrid Laurier desires to recede from his declaration set forth in his resolution then at most the ciues-j tion between the parties is whether' this sum shall be devoted to the pro-] vision of three' battleships for immediate and effective aid to the naval forces of ihe Empire, or whether it -bull le employed in establishing a Canadian naval service. "Every possible facility for debate has been afforded io the opposition,1 and they have taken full advantage of it. Not i/nly have they done ihis hut they have accompanied the discussion with unworthy threats and taunts, which have gone unrebuked by auy leading members of their party. The manifesto thin points out the absurdity of tho spectale of a gov- einmiat fresh from the people and with a normal majority of li), being tie.1 up by such methods. In nonparti/an circle's the rain oi manifestos is taken to indicate some doubt in the minds 0f politicians as to vhat n ally is going to happen this week. The situation is one which wiil lend iisalf to negotiations and compromise cn both sides, but what is really likely j to happen r.o one is in a position at I lhe moment to -av. It is certain, however, that the fight over the naval bill i.s nol over, and n closure' rule will be intro lucod an.l debated.

Officers of thi* Forest Branch Vic- loria are already laying the Hold plans for ibe Ranging Stall for thu coming summer, ll is expected that the members of the service will have one of the mosl difficult yearH fn the history or ihe province, because of the heavy growth ol weeds and .grass last fall, lhe strong probability of a dry spring and ihe greal amount of lum- berlng slashing, railroad and road construction., land clearing und settle- ineni wbicb bas I een going un in tbe province .since wet wealhor nei in at. ibe' end of last, summer. Bl ipa have' been taken during the winter lo ensure that railway construe lion gangs and tie cutlers -hull properly saloguard their operations. Tbere lias been adopted a requirement that strip of .um feel broad shall bo cleared ol Inflammable material'after the tutting of the right ol way. The lire' dan er around new construction has lien shown by every line in Canada1 to bo greater than in any other oper-j ation. Oreat devastation resulted many years ago, when liule heed was paid to lhe forest, and it was a matler of ■ small moment whether it burned down or not. Bui conditions are changed, i and now ibe' Provincial authorities: are co-operating with the. railroads in suppressing what is' the one of the greatest possible economic losses to the company, and to the government, and tbe people alike. The cost of a very efficient patiol ulong the lines' ol construction is a mere bagatelle as compared with the lo>'ses prevented.' 'I li>. iolicy of the Forest Branch i< to, n.ist money during ihe period of . i.at.'-i danger. Once ihe line i.s thru ' a. .1 the) right of way cleared there is l'i lali re small risk, and development of ] the country can proceed without the tremendous losses which are apparent in eieiy quarter of th i country.' A patrol at least as elli lent as that established in the past year is to be maintained this year on the new rail roads in course of construction. One iooi patrolman to each ten miles of track, with additional men on speed- e s will be required. Th- lumbermen and government are wvr'.ing iii.t 'lii'i to tiie -ame end in' the case of logging operation-'. The principle upon which the officers of. the Fore.t Bran h are working is the, tii" whieh is becoming universally recognized; namely, (bat slash is going :n bum at -ome time, and that usual ly i: can l,e eonirolled if its disposal is a.i nded to in proper season.
