MOSS, Editor and Publisher.\nThe reduction of the price of\ncopper was not unexpected. For\nseveral months the supply has exceeded the demand, and a cut in\nprice was bound to take place if\nthis unsatisfactory condition of affairs did not improve. It was not\nexpected, however, that a cut of\nfour cents per pound would be\nmade at one sweep. It is a drastic\nmeasure, but will undoubtedly\nquickly clean up all surplus stocks.\nThe drop in price is to be deplored. It means that many thousands\nof dollars will be lost to British\nColumbia through wages. It also\nmeans that less interest will be\ntaken this year in the development\nof new properties. Copper at 18\ncents was the one bright feature of\nthe mining industry. The price of\nall metals are now at low levels^\nIt is predicted, however, by the\nwell-informed, that with the expected general improvement of\nbusiness the price of all metals will\nrise, due to an increased demand.\nFollowing is an editorial published in the Vancouver Financial\nTimes, dealing with the recent cut\nof copper prices:\n\"On April 15, the price of copper was cut, not by one or two\ncents per pound, but by no less\nthan four cents per pound. This\nwould signify well considered and\nconcerted action among the large\nproducers, which was precipitated\nby the non-observance of the Copper Export Association's program\nof curtailment by the smaller producers and customs smelters.\nHowever, in view of the industrial depression throughout the\nworld which has been responsible\nfor a slump in commodity prices, it\nseemed ridiculous to visualize the\nprice of copper being maintained\non the high pinacle created during\nexceptionally prosperous times.\nA drop in the price of copper\nhas been anticipated for some time\nand the uncertainty so produced\nhas naturally retarded purchases\nby consumers which in turn has\nadversely affected industrial activity.\nNow that the price has been\nplaced on what would appear to\nProduction of Canadian\nCopper Is Increasing\nEach Year\n, Copper, while only produced in\nthe proportion of about one pound\nto every SO tons of pig iron, has attained an importance in the world's\ncommerce which rivals that of iron\nand steel. To the extent that this\nis an electrical age, it is a copper\nera. One concrete result which has\ncome from development of the new\nmining areas in Northern Quebec,\nOntario and Manitoba, is the importance which the production of\ncopper has assumed in Canadian\nmining'. Output has more than\ndoubled within the past four years,\nand continued growth is expected.\nProduction in Canada amounted\nto 121,000 tons in 1929, an increase\nof 20 per cent, over 1928. Owing\nto the higher prices prevailing,\ntotal value was more than 80 per\ncent, greater. In a recent survey,\nthe Canadian Department of Mines\nstated that Canada should be producing copper at the rate of 160,000\ntons a year by the end of 1930.\nCanadian production represents\nat present only 5 per cent, of the\nworld output, and in spite of prospective developments, it is unlikely\nthat her contribution will be of\nsufficient volume, for some years,\nto have any great influence on market conditions. The price received\nby Canadian producers will therefore continue to be governed by\nworld conditions of supply and demand.\nA single fact will often spoil an\ninteresting argument.\nGuest; Gosh, but I'm thirsty.\nHostess: Just a minute and I'll\nget you some water.\nGuest: I said thirsty, not dirty.\nPROVINCIAL ELECTIONS ACT\nAtlin Electoral District\nWrought iron resists rust because the iron silicate or the \"slag\"\nwhich the iron contains is really a\nform of glass which protects the\nmetal shreds from corrosion.\nbe the rock bottom level, industries\ndependent on the utilization of\narge quantities of copper may be\nexpected to respond and the wheels\nof commerce to revolve more\nsmoothly.\nWhat effect did the drop have\non the leading New York copper\nstocks. On the first shock they\ndropped a few points and then\ngradually regained strength towards\nthe close of the exchange, signifying that there was strong buying\nsupport and that confidence had\nnot been destroyed.\nThere is no reason for alarm.\nOn the contrary, the atmosphere is\nnow clear and favorable reactions\nmay be expected. At present\nconditions are subnormal but we\nnow appear to be over the hump\nand can look forward to the future\nwith greatest confidence.\"\nOE\n3E3HE\nMINING CAMP SUPPLIES\nA COMPLETE SERVICE\nPowder, Caps, Fuse, Steel and Tools.

Saturday, April 26th, 1930\nKing's \"Five Cent\" Declaration Still Causing\nComment\nOttawa, April 19th. The Easter recess finds Parliament with\nlittle actually accomplished in the\nmatter of legislation. Fair progress\nhas been made with estimates and a\nnumber of resolutions and motions\nhave been talked over, but the bill\nto stop export of liquor to the\nUnited States is the only piece of\nlegislation of public interest' which\nis within striking distance of becoming law. It awaits third reading in the Senate where its adoption\nis practically pledged. It is held\nup as a formality to permit progress\nwith reciprocal treaty negotiations\nwith the United States under which\nthat country will help keep prohibited goods reaching Canada from the\nsouth.\nThere is a crystalizing of opinion\nto the effect that if any election is\ncoming this year it will take place\nduring the last week in August or\nthe first in September. The budget\nwill pretty well settle the point.\nThe capital is still buzzing with\ncomment upon Premier King's\ndeclaration of April 3 to the effect\nthat his government would not\n\"give a single .cent to any Tory\nGovernment,\" a declaration made\nwith reference to Federal help to\nthe provinces for unemployment\nand other purposes. Protests have\npoured in from five of the Provinces\nof Canada which provide much more\nthan half the revenues of the coun\ntry. Later on Mr. King raised the\namount to \"a five cent piece\" but\neven this has failed to soften the\nblow.\nConservatives applaud what they\nterm his indiscretion and see in it a\nsolidification of their ranks in provinces where heretofor the federal\nand provincial organizations have\nnot been notably co-operative. It\nis quite possible that Mr. King will\nmodify, or explain the declaration\nwhich is being exploited as \"the\nformal excommunication of five\nprovinces from all direct benefits\nfrom the federal treasury.\" This\nactual fact is, however, that Mr.\nKing cannot help any one province\nthrough the treasury without proportionate help to the others so\nthat if the \"Tory Provinces\" are\nshut off the same fate awaits the\nothers.\nPensions legislation is still in the\nhands of a special committee of the\nHouse, with Senate members sitting\ninformally upon it. When the bill\ncomes back it will be much more\ncomprehensive than \"the dole\" for\nunemployable veterans which was\nfirst proposed.\nPost Office Will Be Opened\nIn Taku District\nIt is announced from Ottawa that\na Post Office has been opened\nin the Taku district. The name of\nthe new post office is Tulsequah,\nand is near the junction of the\nTulsequah and Taku rivers.

The Spanish\nadmiral who led an expedition against it in 1790, so\ncharmed the heart of the warlike Maquinna, Lord\nof the Nootkas, with a theme song which he caused\nhie merry men to sing over and over until the chief\nwas placated, that the Indian made him welcome\nand gave him jurisdiction over the Sound and the\nIslands. Since that date the coast of Vancouver\nIsland has become the rendezvous of tourists from\nnil over the world. Within easy reach of Vancouver,\nVictoria and Seattle, it yet offers the attraction of\nterritory quite unspoilt by industrialism and a paradise of beautiful scenery and fruitful sport. As it\nwas when the Spaniards first sighted it, so it virtually is today. Canadian Pacific steamships of the\nBritish Columbia Coast Service travel up and down\nthis coast, and make it easily and comfortably accessible to visitors.

Saturday, April 26th, 1930\nAlice Arm Is Presenting\nWeird Appearance\nAlice Ann at the present time\nsomewhat resembles a cyclone\nstricken town. Houses are to be\nseen standing at all angles, on lots,\nstreets and lanes, while Al. Falconer's tractor, Charlie Ripley's horses,\nand hand winches snort and\nstrain to get them into their new\npositions. Piles of logs, timbers\nand discarded lumber are scattered\nfar aud wide, in the haste to get\neveryone moved as soon as possible.\nThe whole cause of the commotion is that everyone is anxious\nto move their buildings from the\nstreets and lanes of the new town-\nsite and locate on their new lots.\nFor a few days this week darkness alone put an end to operations\nand stilled the vociferations of the\nardent workers.\nAs buildings are being moved\ninto place, the town is gradually\ntaking on a better appearance.\nWithin a few weeks it is expected\nthat all buildings will be located\non their rightful lots, and then it\nwill be up to the Public Works\nDepartment to grade the streets\nand construct sidewalks. When\nthis has been done we shall have\nan orderly, well laid out town instead of a conglomeration of houses,\nshacks and woodsheds as formerly\nprevailed.\nj...\u00C2\u00BB...\u00C2\u00BB... 4 .. \u00E2\u0099\u00A6 \u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0099\u00A6 \u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00C2\u00AB-\u00C2\u00BB\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00C2\u00AB\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0099\u00A6 of \u00C2\u00BB-f \u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00C2\u00AB\u00E2\u0080\u00A2+\u00E2\u0080\u0094\u00E2\u0099\u00A6 <-\u00C2\u00BB.\n| ANYOX NOTES {\nt t\nMr. Clarence Dennis of the Canadian Bank of Commerce staff left\non Wednesday for Vancouver where\nhe will spend his holidays with his\nparents.

The ship then\nstranded on the south shore. Men\nworking on the bridge had narrow\nescape with their lives from splintering timbers, rending steel and\ncrumbling cement.\nCopper Price Cut To\n14c. Per Pound\nThe year-long fight by producers\nof copper to maintain the 18 cents a\npound price for the metal came to\nan end last week when the steadily\nmounting supplies and the disinclination on the part of consumers to\nbuy metal at that figure forced a\ncut to 14 cents a pound. The new\nprice for domestic metal is for delivery to the end of July.\nThe cut which brings copper to\nlowest level since 1928 and is expected to result in buying by the\nbuilding industry and public utility\ncompanies, clearing up the present\nlarge stocks, came on the first anniversary of the stabilization of the\n18-cent price. During the past few\nmonths Wall Street has heard on\nseveral occasions that the producers\nwere having difficulty in keeping\nthe price at 18 cents a pound, although leaders in the industry expressed confidence that this could\nbe accomplished.\nWill Settle Families on Farms\nIn British Columbia\nIt is expected that 75 families\nwill be settled this year on fruit\nand other farm lands in British Columbia through the medium of the\nCanada Colonization Association.\nSettlers are now moving on to\nselected acreage in the B.
