TIIE OUTPUTOFLAST VEAR The provincial mineralogist lias issued a bulletin on the eslimaled amount and value. of the mineral products of the province for 11)01. Tlui report only professes to be approximate as all the returns are not* yet in. It s*ays: -'Roughly speaking, the increase made iu 11*01 over WOO is '23 per cent on gross value of ontjiiit. of the province. This will be a very agreeable surprise to many, as tlie circulation of reports giving a contrary ' impression has caused a very despondent view to be taken of Lhe progress of the mining industry ilnriiiglUOl, which doe* not, seem to be warranted by the tacts. .. There is an apprec'able drop in the placer gold production, owing to thc sudden melting of the snow last spring causing freshets and leaving a shortage "of water during the latter part of Lhe season. The tonnage of ore mined from the lode mines iu the past year is about. f71,S32 tons', equal .to un increase of M17.03G over the year 1900. a little more tlian 57 per cent. Tliere has been* .'in increase in the output of all the inetals with the exception of lend, the low price obtainable in this Province for lead "ores having discouraged this class of mining, except where accompanied with good silver values. ..The gross value of the copper output has increased 200 per cent over 1000, v. bile lode gold has increased 'Hi per rent and silver 14 per cent." The drop in the production of placer gold alluded to is from 03,030 oss in 1000 tu4*5,20l oz. in 1901." Copper shews a big increase from 9,907,0SO pounds to 1.0,7:30,798, By districts the Grand Forks and KetLle Kiver copper camps hive increased their output, from "103,420 tons to 401,008. If it was not _______foiLthis_ remarkable item of increase A Montreal despatch of rei-enl date says: C. 1".

Mr. Devlin said 'il wa- liociiu.se.'of. llie llrilisli Mag which Moated over the Dominion*' nml lhe reluctance of that, "race Lo live under it, because tliey hated Llio country it represented.' Me thought, however, that tin. appearance of Sir Wilfrid at the recent banquet, l.o John l\ed- inond at Ottawa . would lessen flint prejudice. ��������� Mr. Devlin. Dominion Government I mmigi-uliuii Agent.

Mis name docs not appear for.iomi* reason or other on the Civil Hcrvicc List I'or lOI.H. though he is obviously Mill holding down his job. I.ul whatever his salary'is. and it is probable it is something handsome. Mr. Devlin has not been able ������o far to point- to any tangible results I'roni his appointment. Kxeuscs are in order, and it is a cold day when a follower of .lohn Keil- moiid. as Mr. Devlin now proclaims himself to be. is short ������n excuses. It. would never do ror a Ifedmondite to admit the cold fact that the Irish agricultural population is loo well oil' and contented under ihe mild and conciliatory rule of the present Imperial Government to want to emigrate at all and in consequence the statistics shew a falling off of Irish immigration to the United States and British colonics alike. That would never do. Abuse oT the flag has probably become second nature to Mr. Devlin since his association with John Redmond, a.nd so our precious Dominion Immigration Agent for Ireland ! tries to cover up the fact lhat his job is a useless one. in which he is not- earning his wage* by venting hi.- petty .A Situate right at. the Doors of nil the Famous Fish Creeic Gold Mines. , F1KTJSKN minutes- ' witllc irom jSIuin St.' GOLDFIELDS, will dike you to the mouth ofthu-big 5,000 foot-tunnel oii the Famous Camborne Group, or on to the Goklliug Group.
