The report is as follows:\nIn pUbrhlUipg a brief report of\nihe mining activities of this district\nfor the year we beg to remark that\nbesides keeping up the yearly assessment work on all promising\nclaims, considerable work has also\nbeen done on the following properties with good results:\nThe. Isaac, situated on Francis\ncreek, to the west of Wilmer is\nunder lease and bond to Paul Den-\nhart, who' has had a small crew engaged in taking uut ore Since October. , One car of ore has been\nshipped to the smelter and another\nis now awaiting .shipment at Brfsco.\nThe Lead Queen, situated tin the\nsame cre'ek as tin* Isaac, is owned\nby the same party, and has been\nworked up to November. They wero\ndriving a cross cut to get depth and\nto avoid , snow slides, but winter\novertook j the work before cutting\nthe vein. Operations have ceased!\non both these properties for the present, but will resume again as early\nIn the spring as conditions will permit.\nOperated In Nineties\nTho * Ptarmigan mine, after remaining Idle ' these last twelve or\nmore years is How und,or lease and\nbond to W. S. Watson. Tl>is prop-\nty is situated on a tributary .of\nHorse Thief creek to the west of\nWilmer. it was extensively worked\nthe earlier nineties but on account, of the low price of met a Is\nand tbe ore being low grade, and\nthere being no railway transporta-\njqn tbo product could not be profitably bandied. There is a large\npiautily o\u00a3 this character of ore\nmi the dumps and this is,what Mr,\nWatson la shipping. Humor has it\nthai he is making a handsome profit. Tbe undertaking is giving employment to a large number of men\nand horses throughout' the district.\nThree cars of ore have been shipped\nto the smelter and another car is\nbeing  Idaded.\nThe Sittihg. Bull properly, also up\na tributary of Horse Thief creek, has\nhud buf lb tn- -.viir.. Gone on Its\nj-.ro up uf ela-ims. .Lhis past year as\nilie owners,are for* the present confining all their operations to the\nTrojan copper mine, on Boulder, or\nSlade creek, situated three miles below ihe Silting Bull group. They\nhave completed the wagon road up\nto the Trojan property and installed\na small compressor run by a gasoline engine. Alter shipping a carload of ore the work was stopped\nuntil'the coming spring, when they\nntend extending the wagon road up\ntu the Sitting thill group, wilh the\nIntention of resuming operations on\nan   extensive scaly.\nThe Bald l.agle, also situated on'\nBouhktr, 'or' Slade creek, across the\nmountain from Paradise mine, has\nbeen worked . steadily by the OWn-'\ners. who are driving a cross cut to_\ntap the vein ami to get clear of lhe\nWater from the upper level. They\nhave encountered exceptionally hard\nrock, and Cor this reason have not\niis yet reached their objective point.\nParadise Hushes Shipments\nThe Paradise mine is tuo well\nknown to require any comment. It\nhas- shipped' ID34 tons of ore for\ni his year and Intends rushing tbe\nshipments from now until the spring\nbreaks up. It is the largest shipper\nin the Mast kootenay district with\nllieexcepiiun uf tbe North Star, the\nSullivan ami siiine nf the properties\nof   the    Kimberley   district.\nFrom tin- foregoing meagre outline it must In: readily conceded\nthat ibe Windermere mining division offers opportunities to the prospector, the small mining developer,\nthe development company or the operator. To ibe first of these it may\nbe said that there are parts of this\ndistrict as yet untouched which offer\nevery .promise to the intelligent prospector. Foi- ihe second there are\nnumerous prospects with all tlie\nearmarks    of-   value    only    awaiting\nproperties wnicn may raqunu mn\u00ab i\nand capital to bring thdtfl.

To this\nmust be added the consequent lessen'\ning ot the production of both gold\nnnd silver to the extent that these\nmetals would be contained In tho do\ncrease of tonnage of copper oro\nmined,\nAs the position ot tlie copper-output Is the Important feature for con\nsideratlon in this year's summary\nof production, it may be well to\noutline the conditions surrounding\nthe marketing of this metal during\nthe past few yean\nCopper ls such an essential war\nmetal that all the Allied nations hod\nfelt obliged to accumulate within\ntheir borders a sufficient supply ot\ntho metal for war needs for a considerable time in advance, in case\ntransportation facilities should cease.\nThe sudden coming of the Armistice\nin tho fall of 1918 found all the\ngreat nations with theso very largo\nstoclts ot copper on hand, and no\nfurther demand for war supplies. It\nwas estimated roughly that the\nstocks on hand wero 'sufficient to\nsupply tho demands on a peace basis\nfor about two years without further\nproduction by tho mines.\nAs a consequence of tho war tlie\ncopper market ot tho world has been,\nduring the wbolc of the year 1919,\nIn a thoroughly demoralized condition and with no certainty as to the\nnear future.\nDuring the latter part of the war\ntho market price of copper had been\ntlxod by the United States Government and, as the United States produces about two-thirds of the world's\ncopper supply, the American price\nformed the basis of the world price.\nTho price thus set during the latter\nmonths of lho war was\n.pound at New York.\nWith tho sudden disappearance ot\nthe cause of the great consumption,\nand with largo stocks already distributed, it becamo at once evident\nthat the fixed war price could not\nhe   maintained.\nOn tiro other hand, tho producers,\nwho had greatly increased their\nplants and outputs unfler the pressure of war's demands, found themselves with Immense stocks on hand,\nand an accumulating Increased output which had been produced under\nwar conditions as to costs, and which\nthey could not sell, without a loss,\nfor much below the fixed war price.\nThe producers mado an attempt,\nthrough combination, to maintain the.\nfixed price, but the consumer did\nnot have to buy, and consequently\nas a matter of fact, practically no\nsales took place for some months\naround tho end of 1918.\nProduction Curtailed\nThe great producers' combination\nImmediately set. about reducing their\nproduction to a point much below\nnormal, hoping that tho Immediate\ncoming of peace, with its expected\ngreatly increased Industries and the\nrehabilitation from war devastations,\nwould soon exhaust existing stocks,\n' This hope was to a great extent\nfrustrated by the unexpected delay\nin settling the pence terms, and the\nslowness with which tho expected\nrejuvenation of the pence industries\nhas heen taking place, due to the almost  universal   social   unrest.\nTho burden of maintaining a profitable price over such an unexpectedly long timo became too great\nfor the producers, and they wero, to\na certain extent, forced to realize on\ntheir holdings at. a reduced market\nprice.\nMOST  FRAGRANT   OF   FLOWERS\nTho Duke ot Rutland, who Intended to sell only half of his Haddon\nestate In Derbyshire, has now do-\nclded to sell nearly the whole of the\n30,000 acres, reserving but u few\nfields round Haddon Hull, Stanton\nWoodhousc,   and   Longshaw   Lodge.\nOur distinctions do not lie In the\nplaces wo occupy, but In the grace\nand dignity with which we fill them.\n\u2014t'lmms.\nmonth of the yeur. Should this rise\nhot continue until It reaches the\npresent, cost nf production, it will\nmean continued curtailment nf production and the eventual elimination\nof the less economically well-conditioned  producers.\nSuch is the uncertainty attending\nthe market Conditions of tho near\nfuture, In tho light of which it is\nImpossible to predict, with any degree of certainty, what output in\ncopper our British Columbia mines\nwill mako during tho coming year.\nShould the market price improve\nsomewhat, or should the items affecting the cost of production dim\ninlsh, we can confidently predict i\nmuch Increased otttptit, for the min\nes are in a position to make if, should\nthe conditions render it commercially\nprofitable so to do.\nThe value of the products of the\nmetalliferous mines this past year\nIs estimated to be about $20,095,057,\na decrease of $7,815,221 ns compared with tho preceding year.\nThis is almost entirely attributed\nto a decreased output of copper and\na lower market price. for tho product, as has been already comment\ned upon and further explained In the\nlater  notes on  the  metal.\nOutlook Reassuring\nGenerally   the   outlook   for   1920   Is\nmost   reassuring.     Tbe   opening   of\nnew camps In the Portland Canal\ndistrict has.been the outstanding event of tbo past few months.    There\nIs no doubt that this district will ho\nsubjected    to    extensive    prospecting\nand development this year.    In short,\nthero Is every reason to ho] lovo that\n1920  will   he  most   important   to   the\nProvince in point of mining develop\nment.\nThe pi*bducllon of gold, both plac-\n'   and   lode,   shows   a   decrease   of\nahottt   $506,047,   as   Is   fully   pointed\nout   ln   tho   detailed   notes   on   that\nmetal. With the value of the product    fixed,    while    the    ahnormally\nhigh prices of' all Items entering into\nthe   costs   of   production   remain   as\nthoy are, the condition of this branch\nof the  industry  never can  he satis\nfactory.\nThe output of silver shows an increase both as regards quantity produced and  tho value of lhe product.\nSilver  Is tho only metal  in   the  list\nthe price of which may be considered   abnormally   high,   and   from. the\npresent outlook this high price seems\nlikely to continue for some years, lo\nthe   great   advantage   of   the   mines\nproducing that metal,\nlu   British  Columbia  our  silver  Is\nalmost   entirely   derived   from   ores\ncarrying   also   other   metals    which\nhave not  Increased in value.\nTho production of lead shows a decrease, due partly to strikes at some\nof  tbe   larger   producing  mines,   and\non account nf the  low prico  of  the\nmetal due to an overstocked markot.\nAs regards quantity, zinc  shows a\nsomewhat   increased    production    as\ncompared   with   1918,   but   due   to   a.\nlower market price tho value of this\nyear's product shows a decrease,    A\nconsiderable portion of tho ore mined   or   concentrate's   produced   found\ntheir  way  to   tho  United   States for\nsmelting the returns from which can\nbo at present only bo estimated  until final returns are received.\nCollieries  Hold Their  Own\nThe collieries of tbe province about\nheld their own as far as production\nwns concerned during the past year.\nTho Cost\\ collieries show on increase\nbut the Crowsnest collieries  show  a\nslight decrease in coal produced and\na large  decreaso  in  the  amount  or\ncoko   produced,   duo   to   a   long-con\ntinned   period   of   labour   trouble,   to\nsome extent due to Iho large percentage   of  aliens   employed   in   and\nabout these mines.   Due to this fact\nthe   total   value   of  the   products   of\n(ho collieries appears to be this year\nabout   $357,718   less  than   in   1918.\nIncreases   In   the   selling-prices   of\ncoal   have   been   allowed   at   various\ntimes in the past few years hy  the\nDominion Government Fuel Controller,   until   as   nearly   as   can   he\ncalculated  the average price  ot coal\nfor tbe year, over the Province as a\nwhile, has been about $5 a ton, and\ntho   similar   average   price   for   coke\nabout $7 a ton, +.. t-\nMIXERAL   PRODUCTION  FOR TWO YEARS\nThe following table shows the quantities   and   valuo   of   the   several\nminerals produced in the year 1918, and   the   estimated   production   in\n1919.

Hard facts, which aften change in\ntheir nature from day to day, have a habit of upsetting the\nmost careful governmental calculations.\nJust now buying of cotton from the United States by British\nmanufacturers has ceased and it will be at an end until there\nis a change in the sterling exchange situation.\nIf the southern cotton planters suddenly find their best\nmarket shot to pieces the effect will be far more potent than\nany.declaration of policy by Secretary Glass. Cotton planters\nwill learn that they can sell their cotton to Europe if Americans\nprovide Europe with loans, or credits, which are the same\nthing. Producers of other articles in the United States will\nfind that they are in the same position, that they can't sell their\ngoods unless the exchange situation is relieved.\nOf course loans to Europe are only a temporary expedient,\nto carry the war-shattered countries over until they are able\nto stand on their own feet. The real remedy will only come\nthrough more production and harder work in Europe. But, of\ncourse, Europe can't bring its production back to normal in\na day.\n-...\u00a3.-\nA Big Delegation for the Spokane Conventi\nion\nA big delegation should go from Kootenay and Boundary\nto the mining convention at Spokane which takes place next\nweek.

Wherever my wandering stops led me, whether across\nthe heather-capped hills and broad\nuplands, nr along the winding white\nroads which ran seawards, it was a\nvery noticeable fact that even in the\nsmallest hamlets and villages nosl-\nllng in llio rolling hollows of 'the.\nwhile ribbed downs, active preparations were being made\u2014and in\nsomo places even, had resulted in\naccomplished fact\u2014to perpetuate In concrete form a lasting mem\norial to \"pur Glorious Dead\" in the\ngreat war.

Bosnian, lhe Toronto\nman who went to New York without\nany money, and just looking for a\njob, and who now operates' six\ngreat New York .hotels and two resort hotels elsewhere, has had a\ncareer like a movie hero. Mr, Bowman is frequently in Toronto, though\nknown by comparatively few people\nin that city. The November American Magazine tells his, story:\n\"Only a comparatively few years\nago he was driving a truck, in New\nYork, J.atei* ho broke saddle horses. But always he had the idea\nthat he was cut out for the hotel,\nlie regarded it as temporary\u2014as only\na means to an end. But no matter\nhow humble the job, Bowman contrived to use it In somo way for\npermanent gain.\n\"Even his first little jo'p, doing\nerrands for his grandfather, taught\nhim something of definite'value.\n\"ln his native town, Toronto, was\na factory that hud wood shavings to\naway, and Bowman's grandmother liked these for starting a\nfire in the kitchen stove. So she\nwould often ask'him to go to the\nfactory and fetch her a largo .burlap\nsack full of shavings. Young Bowman did not like this at all. He\ndid not mind the physical effort ot\nit so much, but ho imagined itiat\ntie lookea riniculously undignifieu\nHearing a bulay sack of shavings\nthrough the streets.\n\"However, he willingly did what\nnis grandmother desire.i because oi\nthe twenty-nvc cent piece he knew\nshe would give him. Gradually n\nuawnod on him lhat there was\ndoming undignified aboui the task,\nchat no honest labor, io gain mono;\nune needs, is undignified, In fact he\ncame lo reel that boys who loafeo\n.ibout the street corners and occut.-\nonally laughed at him, while doing\nnothing themselves, were rcaliy less\ndignified  than he.\n. \"The day was thrown open to the\npublic, there was a lot' ot confusion\nabout the turning on of water into\ncertain pipes. And the only man who\nknew exactly where each valve was\nlocated and whore each pipo led was\nBowman, himself,.He was oblidgcd tu\nput on a pair of overalls and personally take charge of the plumbing\nemergency.\n\"Bowman's first hotel job was at\na little resort in the Adlrondacks,\nwhen he was only nineteen years\nold. Because of the short season\nthere he desired a permanent place\nat some good hotel in New York\nCity. A wealthy man gave him a\nletter of introduction to Cho manager   of  what  was thou  one   of   tho\nbest   hotels   in   New  York,   a   place\nthat   Bowman   had : thought  a   suil-\nblo field for his la'lents.        ..   .\n\"Hc mailed tho letter of introduction to the hotel manager, and\nrriiuested permission to call. Bui\nhe got no response. He wrote\nagain and asked for the return of\nhis letter of introduction. Even\nthen ho got no response, and he\nformed a strong opinion about tho\ncharacter of the man who had exhibited what seemed to him such\ngross and needless discourtesy.\n\"Years later Bowman became\npresident, and directing manager of\nthe company lhat took over thot\nsame hotel, nnd his first official\nart was to discharge the manager\nwho* had failed to answer his letter.\nHe did nol discharge him lo vent\npersonal spleen, but because he\nthought the man lacked the sense\nof courtesy and consideration which\nshould be among ihe qualifications\nof a successful   manager.\nHaving failed to get the job ho\nsought in New York, Bowman had\nto d6 whatever work ho could lind.\nFrequently he was'obliged to bo so\neconomical that each meal was a\ngenuine problem,\n'Lalor he secured work witli the\nHolland   House   under   one    Gustav\nMECHANICS' TOOLS\nWe have a splendid assortment of\nSTANLEY'S TOOLS\nTo Select From, Including\nPlanes, Squares, Screw Drivers, Try Squares,\nChisels, Etc.\nSee the New Dowel Machine;\nPRICES RIGHT\nNelson Hardware Co.\nBAKER STREET \u2022 \u2022 . .'\u2022 NELSON, B. ff\nI\nJfthn Burns 1 Sans Gen2l SET ?\nSASH AND DOOR FACTORY '   ' NELSON  PLANING MILLS .\"'\nVernon Street, Nelson, B.

One was\nwhen an old lady' came up to mc\nat.

Thus ago and youth\nNo   more   trips   to   tho   westward\n111 be made by the Dora, a storied\n(tie  steamer  which   for  years has\nraved   the   bad   waters   lying   off\nSat remote part of Alaska west of\neward, strung out along the main\nlind, Unalaska, and the Aleutian\nHilands. . .The,, boat  has  been  taken\nirom the westward run and sent to\nISeattlo?\nJ Alaskans will miss the Dora, for\nuring these many years they have\nome to look to her for almost\nverytl)ing.

It has been claimed she\niterated on the most northerly\n[vlntcr route in the world, the 15th\nif'each month leaving Seward on a\nbqo-mllo trip to Dutch Harbor,\njjhimak Pass, and other points and\nmelt. Once tn a while she would\nI'enture north into the Bering Sea\nfrith supplies.\nji, The   log   of   the   Dora   was   one\nterminal stations, mostly from 'thirds,\nin coppers and small money, which ]\nshows how grateful people were for'\nany train and to any driver who\nwould take them along to their destinations.\n\"One naval\" officer at Waterloo said\nto me an arrival there: 'Thlt. is the\nhappiest day of my life!' 'Why?'\nsaid I. 'Because I'm to bo married\ntoday, and if I hadn't been able to\nget up this morning I shouldn't have\nbeen in time.' People waved handkerchiefs from windows, and allotment-holders waggled spades and\nforks at passing trains.

Two days each month, or\nabout twenty times in tho school\nyear, aro all that will see tho flag\nin action, and those days will be\nchosen for some good and sufficient\nreason. What that reason is the\nchildren will tell when they go\nhome at night. That is how the\nlesson of patriotism is to be kept in\ncirculation and the whole community\nstirred to a new interest in the flag\nand what it stands  for.\nThe new flag policy of the Alberta government has just boen announced by the minister of education, Hon, George P. Smith. It is\nto be put into effect at tho beginning of the new year. The government will supply a flag of uniform\nsize and quality to each school, the\ncost to be deducted ultimately from\nthe government school grant. Tt\nwill then bo required of each school\ndistrict to erect a flag pole and\notherwise to provide for the proper\ncare of tho colors. Ordinarily the\nflag wili be displayed on the school\nroom walls, but twice a month, on\nthe days appointed, it will be raised\non the flagpole outside, to tho accompaniment of a simple but impressive ceremony.\nA textbook is being prepnrod con\ntabling historical sketches that will\nbe read to tho school children each\nflag day. These will tell why the\nday was so selected, the goneral'\ntheory of tho selections being anniversary occasions of dates when the\nBritish peopio made some unselfish\ncontribution to human liberty and\nworld welfare. The children will\nbe encouragotl to write essays about\ntbe day and its doings ami to talk\nabout  it when they got  homo.\nThe Alberta educationalists bo-\nllevc that in this way a deeper interest in the national colors will be\nsimulated than if they are floated\nti the -breeze ovory day. Mr. Smith\ngives it as his opinion that too\nmuch flag-waving is a blatant kind\nof patriotism that does not accomplish much of lasting value, but hc\nexpects that by making tho occasional flag displays into impressive\nceremonies of this kind a hotter\nand more permanent end will be\nserved. The scheme anticipates a\nnow popularity for tho Union Jack\nthroughout Alberta, with all the\ncountrysides Intelligently interested\nin the flag days at school.\nTwenty-odd years I've saild this\nboat and never had an acident but\nonce and that wasn't serious.
