Carl Halrslne |y\/*r'W>'W>'rW/W>'W' The Easter Shoot Didn't Materialize for a Cup or Medal Competition. The shooting match which the Hedley Rifle Association decided holding at Easter, went by default so far as competition for cup or medal is concerned, owing to the fact that the necessary number of ten competitors didn't put in an appearance, for some time ago it was decided that there must be at least ten competitors iu all matches at which the cup or medal were shot for. \ Nevertheless there was a shoot, but it only amounted to a practice match. Six members of the Association shot, hut the scores were all low. The morning was hot, and although bright, the light was peculiar, and the. heat i rays ascending from the ground proved troublesome, especially\" at the. longer ranges at which the prone position was used. The Association started out with a | good strong membership list and most of- them active members who were ready to take part iu the shooting at i the various matches, but the turn-over of affairs in connection with the Daly Reduction Company, which at one fell swoop cutout marksmen like Pieknrd, Brown, Reid and Powell, was a hard blow to the Association. Nor was this all, for the cutting down of the force on outside improvements dispensed with the services of quite a few carpenters, and among these the Association also lost valuable shooting members in Forbes, McFadden and Bruce. Nevertheless there is too tendency on the part of the survivors to lose interest at a time when the necessity is all the greater to retain it. It is therefore hoped that hereafter every member will make it a personal matter and resolve that no matter who may fail to show up, he, at all events, will not allow the fault of \"no competition\" to lie at his door, and whenever a match is arranged will be on hand promptly to take part in the competition. Some, of course, have better rifles than others, and those who feel themselves handicapped with an inferior arm are apt to get discouraged. That, however, will he obviated when the service rifles are obtained from the Militia 'Department and all will have to use them, thus placing all on an even footing. The Gazette's report of the splendid strike on the Hummingbird group, upon which prospecting by diamond drill is now proceeding, is fully confirmed. The drilling is being done by the Spokane Diamond Drill Co. for J. J, Marks, the principal ir.vuer. and everyone is delighted with the success which has attended this first attempt at locating the ore body which was generally believed to be there. For a few weeks after operations with the drill commenced they wore working under difficulties because of the broken character of the ground that caused it to cave in -and thus impede the progress. So great wan the difficulty experienced in this way that it became ivecssery to V.)\ the hole with cement and drill through it until they got into solider ground, after which better progress wa's made. A.t a depth of 1(51 feet the first ore- hodv was encountered and they have been practically in ore all the way since then. ..When Mr. Marks was down on Monday they:had been drilling in solid ore and were down to a depth .of 237 feet, the ore at this point being strongly mineralized with arsenppyrito. Occasionally since the ore was first struck small bands of quai-tzite and also of lime were encountered, which looks well for a self- fluxing smelting proposition It was the intention to make this a. 800 foot hole, but from the way in which it is turning out they may extend it to 400.feet. It is the intention to do 2000 feet in all, so that with the excellent result obtained in this first hole and the advantage to accrue from the knowledge thus gained, it is reasonable to assume that when the full 2000 feet liave been completed enough will be learned to show that not onlv By every rule of logic the. Princeton Star's article of last week can be construed in no other way than as an admission that its paragraph of January 27th was a dishonest paragraph published with intent to deceive the public, for it has refused to take the negative to that proposition.

Your correspondent stated that Mr. Shatford left his seat in the Assembly when the bell rang for a vote on the measure. This statement, however, is absolutely wrong as Mr. Shatford had not been on the1. Assembly floor for some time previous to this vote being taken. I may say that I was with Mr. Shatford .while this debate wss going on and eonsequentlv I know I am staling farsts. Your remarks would indicate that Mr. Shatford is opposed to an S-hour day in smelters, but it is well known that Mr. Shatford voted for this mt-asure. during the session of 1905 and the present amicable arrangement between the smelter management and the employee is largely due to the stand taken by Mr. Shatford and some of the other members at that time, Yours truly.

THE SIMILKAMEEN ASKS IT This portion of Yale-Cariboo should see that some effort is put forth to draw the notice of the representative of the riding to -the importance of having justice done to the Similka* meen in the matter of attention from the Geological\" Survey. The manner in which this district has heen neglected is a disgrace to the Administration at Ottawa, a disgrace to the re- presentative And a disgrace to the Geological Survey itself. Year after year the Geological Survey has been represented in the Kootenays and yet W. A. GaliiherM. P. was able last year to secure the services of R. W. Brock and his assistants for the whole season hi the A'elson District. Idossiand District has been\" worked over almost foot by foot and reports published. Mr. Brock also spent one or two seasons in the Boundary. But the Similkameen has been completely ignored by the Department ever since the examination made by the late Dr George Dawson and published- in his report for 1877-8. In that examination and the report issued in which Nickel Plate. Mountain is referred to as ': the striped mountain \"' and Twenty-Mile Greek as \" the large brook,\" it is seen that the unerring eye of \" the little Doctor \" caught the great possibilities of the vicinity as a most promising field for mining development. But fancy a district like this, left all t lic-'c years unnoticed by the Department, alter so encourag- a report by the Prince of them tiii, at a \"period so remote that not even Twenty-Mile Creek had a name and had to be designated in his report as \"the large brook \" ! i i;i'tJi'l nnatcly for and especially for the The annual appropriations for the Geological Survey should be trebled. It is not a lack of men that hampers the work so much as lack of money to pay jthem. Every spring our min- jing schools and universities set ' free scores of students who have i to look for employment during I the summer months. Many of 'ithetn drift into the mining camps. They have to do something to earn their bread .and if possible get a few dollars ahead to help them through the next session. As a rule ...they take the first job that offers and as a result spend the whole summer doing some laborer out, of a job of mucking. Now. it would be much better, for these young fellows themselves and better for the country if they were sent out into the hills under the supervision of competent field geologists. For this work they should receive at least as much as the mucker is paid and should be made to work hard enough to earn it. In this way the country gets the benefit, at muckers' wages, of what technical knowledge these students have received in the , schools, and by having all their work carefully supervised'by the geologist in charge' of the narty j cixty days after I i!ii- m \"i \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \" W apply to the Chief O Who CtUl be held responsible for aiui Works fwpcrinissin the work, all danger to be feared from amaturism. .will be obviated. A new Director of the Survey, Mr. A. P. Lowe has been appointed, and it is hoped that lie will press'for a much greater appropriation. Invariably when mining men come in, here the first thing they ask for is 'map and geological report of the camp, Several times the Gazette has been asked for. these and' had nothing to show except Dr. Daw- sou's report' of \"1877-8, received from the Dr. himself. many years ago. It is now up to Duncan Ross j M. P. for YalerCariboo to see that this portion of his riding gets a square deal in this matter. The \"Kootenays. .and the Boundary have had more than their share. There is here several seasons' work for a party from the Geological Survey under the direction of a competent field geologist and we want them.
