No. 14.\nPRINCETON, B.C., SATURDAY, JUNE 30, 1906.\n$2 a Year, in Advance\nMINING EXPERTS ARRIVE.\nWill Sample Various Camps and Note\nConditions and Prospects.\nProf. Landis- and J. Roberts of Seattle\narrived in Princeton on last Saturday's\nstage for the purpose of making an expert investigation of the mineral resources of this section and of the Nubian\ngroup more particularly. They have\ncome on behalf of representatives of\ncapital who have become interested in\nmining here through J. F. Leland. A\nlarge preliminary expenditure will be\nmade in ore tests and examination of\n..deposits. To facilitate this a portable\nplant of about rooo pounds weight will\nbe used in testing and analyzing the ore\nof various camps. The above named\ngentlemen with C. Snowden as guide\nleft for Copper mountain last Sunday\nwhere they have collected sixty-three\nore samples from as many mineral claims.\nW. Dawson McGregor, M.E-, al\u00C2\u00ABo of the\nparty, returned to the coast on Sunday\nafter having spent a week in looking over\nsome of the mineral properties\u00E2\u0080\u0094he wi 1\nbe back again in about a fortnight.\nROCHE RIVER TRAIL.'\nIt is a pity that the trail from Princeton to Roche river is not put in better\nshape. Prospectors and all others using\nthe trail risk life and limb in trossing an\nunsafe bridge and climbing precipitous\nbanks. There are timbers across the\ntrail, and in some places it needs widening. With a very large appropriation of\nmoney for Similkameen roads, trails and\nbridges it seems too bad that tt is trail\nand the roads should be neglected. Possibly the road superintendent on reading\nthis item will kindly give the matter his\nimmediate attention.\nTRAVELLER AND EXPLORER.\nChas. Camsell, Dominion geologist,\nhas moved his camp from four miles\nabove town to the international boundary\nline where it intersects the Pasayton\nriver. From that point he will work toward Princeton. While here he was collecting information about the Princeton\ncoal basin. Mr. Camsell has been in the\nfar north of Canada exploring that great\nlone country in the Mackenzie river\nbasin to the Arctic ocean. He was the\nfirst to blaze a trail across country from\nDawson to the Peace river settlement, a\nvery difficult task owing to many portages and rough travelling, the distance\nbeing near a thousand miles.\nE. Barr Hall is clearing off two lots on\nwhich he will move his house, rendered\nnecessary by the railway line going\nthrough his pretty homestead.\nRegular meeting of the board of trade\nwill be held next Thursday evening.\nElection of a secretary to take the place\nof Mt. Switzer, removed, and other important business.\nMINES AND MINING.\nSearch for the Lost Lead Claim\u00E2\u0080\u0094Gold\nCrpwn has Tunnel.\nR. Fitzgerald reports progress on the\nGold Crown at Granite Creek. He is now\nih fifty feet with tunnel in ore between\nwell denned walls. Much of the lead is\ndecomposed quartz which can be mined\nwith pick and shovel. Gold is panned\nout from it.\nJ. Os. Coulthard arrived in town yesterday via Hope Pass and will be at\nRoanie camp balance of summer. He\nhas renewed last year's contract with\nChinks to rediscover the Lost Lead claim\nwhich can be done only by wing dam on\nthe Tulameen river. The lode was lost\nafter the big placer stampede in the early\ndays. It is very rich in gold and many\nwish Mr. Coulthard success in his plucky\nventure.\nLADY PROSFECTRESS.\nH. B. Brown and wife came up from\nHedley on a prospecting trip last Monday. They are delighted with this pai t\nof the country both from a mineral and\nscenic viewpoint. The coal, especially,\nlooked good to them as Hedley, thus far,\ndepends on the pine and hemlock for its\nfuel. When the railway is in operation,\nhowever, Princeton coal will warm the\nhearts and hands of all between here and\nSpokane. Mrs. Brown is the first lady\nprospectress to visit Princeton and thinks\nthe formation very favorable.\nAN OUTSIDE OPINION.\nWriting of the great resources of the\nSimilkameen in a recent issue the Rossland Miner says, in part: \"With these\nand other resources, once transportation\nis afforded, the country should have more\nthan ordinary prosperity. Princeton,\nwhich promises to be one of the leading\ncities of the Similkameen, is less than\n150 miles from Vancouver, and when rail\ncommunication is established between\nthe two places it will be of vast advantage to both. The completion of this\nline will mean a great deal to Rossland.\nVancouver will then take more interest\nin mining affairs than she does at present.\"\nThe money orders and postal notes\npaid at the Princeton post office indicate\nthe growing importance of this section\nwhen compared with other places. The\ntotal paid was $4877, or nearly $400 more\nthan the next highest office in the\nSimilkameen last year.\nJ. R. Campbell, of the City drug store,\nhas had an urgent invitation to visit\nCamborne and take a hand in the celebration for the ist July. A tempting\noffer for a foot race, $100 a side, has been\nmade him, which he feels would be easy\nmoney as he has already twice defeated\nthe party making the proposition.\nI HERE AND THEfflJ\nAAAAAAor^ald.oauntry.
