The large miuiny operations un QiKistiello river of the French capitalist, (tlio Columbiii Hvdraulio Mining Uum patty) lhe Heaver Mouth Company, nnd lho Montreal Company certainly entitle these people to con sideration. A road could bo built Irom Uig laku nr from Frank Guy*> j_l_._ to tho Montreal Company'fa ground (tho distance would be ubout 10 miles) nnd from there ooiitiuued down the Qupsuelle ei^ht or ten miles, and would then connect with the Columbia (Joiupnny'B road which leada out from their mines to the v,a<rnti road 13 miles uln-v _ thn inout.li of Quesnolle. lu olher wurd.«, ahoui S5 tittle-3 of new road, antl not n very difficult country tluough which to buil'l, would accommodate ail three of these companys. From ihe pies- cut outlook, many thousand dollars will bo expended by the.e cntupanys the present season. Liy all means the Government should assist these companys to build a road down that portion, nt least, uf Queanello river. From tho Reservation, Now that the first rush into the Colvilie reservation country is itbnt ing somewhat, information i.s coming in na to thn specifiu nature of die leads and form-mon, So far galena iron sulphide carrying gold, cupper, placer gold, and gold ipin.itit liav been discovered. In till 1,300,000 Acres of land have been thrown O-j-*"' to prospectors. This is lhe north half of the roservation. Met ween the bend ofthe Kettle river and the International boundary lino some ex cellent quart/. pro_peots have buei located, Of these the La Fleui claim appears to bo the best dis covered. The ledge is plainly de lined for a long diss mi no nml live lo cations have already been made or it. The ure body varies from two ti three feet in width. From it aBSayi have been obtained varying from 40 per cent copper, $10 to $00 in gold antl a few ounces in silver. The copper is a bornlto and is said to resem ble tlio Silver King nre lo a consider able dugreo. A number of locations have beer made on a small tributary of Fourth of July creek, two miles south of tin boundary line. Thero iheoieis de scribed as resembling that ol Trail Creek, It runs frum S'.O up in gultl with a fair percentage of copper. Tho main l^il^e here ia very wide and has been traced through several claims. Ou Kettle river, a few miles froir Marcus, claims are located on some good showings of copper carrying jjiiij. An extensive area uf placer ground his been luuated on thc Columbia river, Sheep creek, fourth of .Inly creek, anil Cariboo ereek, as well as Kettle river and some of its liibmar i.B, Most of tlie ground has been given tho most aupetficlftl prospect- lug and but little is yet known of its iroiil value.

Several very promising quartz bearing locations are also being developed in the Litiooot district, ami as machinery capable of treating the refractory ore on the most improved methods will soon bo imported, the excellent results already attained are attracting miners and mining men io large numbers. The Cariboo region nnd northern interior of British Columbia can only be reached by rail wny to Ashcroft, ihenofl Ly stage. Traveling by dny only' Quesnelle and olher points are reached in three days, Barkerville in four. The roads nre excellent, and the stopping places convenient. Cariboo Wagon Road Directory.
