Dominion to Confer Direct With U.S. RECIPROCITY IN SIGHT Taft to Make Active Negotiations The First Work of Coming Cabinet Session HOPES TO REACH AN AGREEMENT BEFORE WINTER Boston, Sept. 17th-Tho recent speeches of Sir Wilfrid Laurier in which he intimated that it was up to Washington to take the next step in reciprocity matters are evidently bearing fruit. President Taft is now convinced that there is a mutual desire for reciprocity and will make active negotiations the first business of the coming cabinet session. The British Ambassador, Sir James Bryce has consented that negotiations be carried on directly between Ottawa and Washington, and thus is added another twig to Laurier's wreath of fame. It marks the realization of an ideal for which the Premier has striven throughout his political career: complete economic autonomy of the Dominion. Taft expressed the hope that representatives of both countries would come to an agreement by the end of October. Georgian Bay Canal Project to Occupy Dominion Parliament Ottawa, Sept. 17���The projected Georgian Bay canal which is to connect Lake Huron with the Lt. Lawrence by way of the Ottawa river, is likely to become a prominent feature of discussion during the coming session of parliament. A movement having influential support is under way to take the project out of private hands and make it a government undertaking.

COOK Copenhagen, September 17���A Danish government steamer arrived here with the news that John Bradley, the financial backer of Dr. Cook's polar expedition, is on his way to Etah to secure records and instruments which Cook claims he left there. Bradley would neither deny nor confirm the report that the explorer was on board the yacht. The steamer also brings information that two missionaries working among the Eskimos who accompanied Cook, insist that the latter reached the pole prior to Peary. Coal Mine Disaster Barely Averted Linton, Ind., Sept. 15���The explosion of a gas pocket in the Dugger coal mine threatened to furnish a repetition of the Cherry disaster of a year ago. As it is one miner lost his life and eleven sustained serious injuries. Fully two hundred men were at work in the mine and at first all were believed to be entombed. The pitiful scenes of Cherry were re- enacted by hysterical women, who gathered at the shaft house and begged for their dead. The final rescue of the men is regarded as almost miraculous. Church Prelate Will Call on Taft Before Returning Home Montreal, Sept. 15th���Cardinal Vanutelli expresses great satisfaction over the success of the Catholic congress just held in this city. No other city, he declared, has ever attained similar results. Archbishop Bruchesi also spoke with delight of the work accomplished. The next congress will take place 1911 at Sevilla, Spain; 1912 it will meet at Vienna, and the following year at Lyons. While leading the choir in Sunday's procession, Denis Poliquin, leader of St. James choir, fell dead from heart failure, Cardinal Vanutelli will visit Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of St. Paul, and from there will proceed to Washington, to pay his respects to President Taft. He will sail for Rome October 7. Ranches and Mills on Lower Fraser Suffer From Fires New Westminster, Sept. 15th��� Fanned by high winds the bush fires are again assuming dangerous proportions.

Bonds Two Groups on Rocher de Boule SEES AND BUYS AT ONCE Portland Mining Nan First to Inspect Claims Bays on Strength of Showings in Sight Locust Pest in Central America Washington, Sept. 17���Consular reports state immense swarms of locusts are rapidly destroying the principal crops of Yucatan. DECLARES HERALD'S REPORT IS TOO CONSERVATIVE After returning from a visit to the properties R. P. Trimble of Portland, Ore., has bonded the two groups of claims located on Rocher de Boule mountain by W. S. Sargent and Colin Monroe for $65,000; two deals being made on the claims, one of the groups going for $40,000, and the other for $25,000. Business at home demands Mr. Trimble's attention and he left Friday morning for Portland, accompanied by W. J. Gearin, a son of ex-U. S. Senator Gearin of Oregon. If he is able to return in time this fall, work will be started and kept up all winter. If he is unable to do this operations will be delayed till next spring. When asked if he found the Herald's statements in regard to the properties to be correct, Mr. Trimble stated that the Herald was too conservative; that the claims looked better than represented. Additional work has revealed a width of six feet of solid yellow copper ore where only four feet was in sight the week before. NEW CAMP NORTH OF HAZELTON SHOWINGS SIMILAR TO THOSE OF FOUR AND NINE MILE On the north side of the hill north of Hazelton, and not much more than four miles and a half from town, the claims recently located by Long, McBain and Latham are showing evidences of wealth that add materially to the prospects of the Hazelton district becoming a mining camp of the first rank. Although only staked within the last month, the locators have with great energy cut good trails to the various showings of ore and opened up the ledges in a number of places. The assayer's report on samples submitted has just been received and gives values running up as high as $146 per ton, and there is no doubt but that the claims have everything in sight that has returned high values on Nine Mile and Four Mile. The big ledge appears to be twenty-five or more feet in width and well mineralized. No boundary has yet been found. In several places ore has been uncovered in veins up to two feet or more in width that has every appearance of high-grade rock, being galena with some gray copper and and an occasional lump the size of a bean of the high grade silver mineral that has given such astonishing values on Four Mile hill. Situated at an elevation of only a few hundred feet above the level of the Skeena, surface work can be continued until late in the fall. The wagon road north of town reaches a point within two miles of the claims and the Robinson lake trail almost touches the property. THE OMINECA HERALD SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1910.

Public Improvements Extensive as the program has been for this year, demands upon the public purse for roads and trails for the coming year will be larger than ever, with every demand backed up by an urgent need upon the part of the farmer and miner. Wagon roads are needed by the farmer and roads and trails are needed by the prospector and miner and no progress can be made by either without them. Appropriations have been liberal and there is no reason to expect they will be otherwise but the whole country cannot be opened up in one year. Still the amount of work that can reasonably be expected to be done next year should be largely in excess of that provided for this year. A wagon road to the claims on Nine Mile mountain will be badly wanted next year. The amount of work going on now and indicated from deals recently closed, shows plainly that supplies must be taken in by some other means than pack trains. The trail to Babine lake is in bad condition and freight rates on the 200 tons or more that goes over it each year have risen a cent a pound in the last two years as a consequence. That part of the Babine trail as far as Four Mile hill should be turned into a wagon road, meaning about three miles of construction from where it leaves the main road at Two Mile creek. With two mining outfits operating on the hill this work cannot well be avoided. A trail from Kitseguecla to the new discoveries on Rocher de Boule should be built, both to allow supplies to be taken to the properties now under bond and to give the prospectors a better chance to reach other parts of the range. Ranchers about Cedar- vale are asking for eight miles of road to allow them to market their crops and Kispiox people want their road extended farther into the valley. The Bulkley valley road will undoubtedly receive all the money that its importance as the main highway of the district demands and the claims of the various sections of the valley for branch roads and trails are being brought forward by the residents of that section. Now that all the principal bridges for the district are in none of the large amounts taken up in that way will be needed next year. Favorable Impressions One of the most pleasing features attending the opening up of the camps about Hazelton is that every mining man and expert that has visited the various properties acquires a distinctly favorable impression of their worth, seeing the evidences of permanency and value that go to the making of a rich district. As a rule it is a trifle difficult to get a candid expression of opinion from a mining engineer, especially one meditating an unfavorable report. When they do let themselves go and speak openly in favor of any camp it means that practically every point is in its favor. They are men who have spent the greater part of their lives in the mining business and their early enthusiasms were discarded as excess baggage years ago. They have been all over the world; have seen the sources of supply of the world's metals and their conclusions are based on a vast amount of experience. A Kootenay Crowd A resident of Rossland in the late "nineties" would find himself more at home here than in the Rossland of today. Two ex- superintendents of the Consolidated Co. 's mines, James Cronin and E. B. Kirby, are here now; Fred Richie and Archie Mac- Kenzie left at the beginning of the week; C. A. Burbank is on a still hunt for good buys in real estate; James D. Sword and son have been in the district for two months and will remain for some time while Mr. Sword is fully posting himself on the properties in the immediate vicinity. Besides these visitors a number of residents of Hazelton at one time claimed Rossland as their home and of the miners and prospectors every third man has been there at some time in his career. A Prosperous Section If Bulkley Valley needed a demonstration to convince any skeptics that people who are most familiar with conditions there believe that farming pays and will continue to pay, the large amounts of money being put into farms there by men of means who do not necessarily need to confine themselves to farming to make a living should be a convincing argument. That it does not need any such demonstration is witnessed by the continually increasing price of land. Prices of all farm produce throughout the whole interior country are abnormally high because the demand is greater than the supply. This can be accounted for by the average farmer lacking the capital to clear his land and maintain himself until crops can be marketed. This means a slower rate of progress in putting farms under cultivation. On the other hand the high prices give the farmer without any capital a chance to get a good start, that he would not otherwise have and these high prices will continue until the G. T. P. is completed. With hay at forty dollars a ton, oats five cents a pound, butter at seventy-five cents a pound, fresh eggs at a dollar a dozen and other things in proportion farming is a good business. More land if being cleared every year but the demand for produce is always one jump ahead. The Westholme Lumber Co., Limited. PRINCE RUPERT, B. C.

ANOTHER STRIKE IS REPORTED Group Of Claims Staked Near Babine Trail Another strike of galena ore is reported this week and the samples brought into town by the locators look as fine as anything yet found in that line. Five men are interested in the group of claims that have been staked, A. H. Ridsdale, Gordon McLellan, John Salt, Fred Foster and H. B. Thoen. Three ledges have been discovered with a width of two or three feet and all carrying good ore. From town the claims are about thirty-six miles, three miles off the Babine trail, the point where they turn off being about thirty-three miles out. This leaves the new find about eighteen miles from the surveyed line of the railway with a water grade for the entire distance. Mr. Ridsdale is much elated over the discovery and looks to see quite a stir in the locality as the country close by is very promising ana there is every reason to expect further locations. LOCAL AND DISTRICT NEWS. Mr. and Mrs. G. E, Stillings of Kispiox were in town Tuesday. J. W. Davis, of Harvey & Davis, returned today from an extended business trip to Vancouver.
