Moose Mine Looking Good and Shows Great Promise Ore is Located in Lower Tunnel at a Depth of 190 Feet Mr. Don Cameron came down from the Moose mine this week, and is highly pleased with the work done oh the property and the amount of ore that has been looated this fall. ' Another crosscut has been driven in the lower tunnel, at a distance of 180 feet from the portal, the depth obtained being, 190 feet. This crosscut proves the lead to be 22 feet wide and the ore is similar to that found in the other crosscuts, the higher grade ore being found on the hanging wall. Average samples were taken'on a width of 12 feet and it is roughly estimated that the ore will run about 20 ozs. silver per ton. Returns of the assays have not yet been received. A character sample taken from this crosscut gave returns of 122 ozs. silver per ton; The previous crosscut driven on this lead was. 140 feet from the portal and an average assay on five feet gave returns of 34.2 ozs. of silver per ton. The work done on the Moose this year has been highly satisfactory to the owners, and it proves conolusivly that the ore carries values with depth. Thirty-five tons of ore are already stored in the bunkers at the mine. Owing to the steep nature of the ground which makes it difficult to store the ore, owing to the danger of sliding snow, operations have been suspended until next March, when the snow will have settled down. Development work will then be again proceeded and it is expected that considerable more ore will be located.. The Moose is rapidly taking its place as one of the most promising properties in the north. Immense bodies, of ore have-already been proven up and if the work next spring proves as satisfactory as that done this fall, the Moose, will, in a short time develop into one of the big shipping mines of the province. Anyox Community Gives Dance Presentation of Tennis Prizes Made The Community League gave a Dance ou Friday, November 17th, whioh was the League's treat to the citizens of Anyox.

The work on this trail this year consisted of building four and a half miles of new trail and repairing the trail already in existence. About seven miles of trail has been put on a wagon road grade. Eleven miles of trail is now available for a possible road in to the Naas Valley. A bridge will be built early in the spring about three and-a-half miles up the Illiance River. The Illiance Valley has now a first class trail and the only money that will be needed for some time will be for repair work Work on the Kitsault River trail closed down some two weeks ago. A bridge was built across the Kitsault River: three quarters of a mile of new trail was built and the old trail repaired from Muskeeter Flats to Trout Creek. - „ The Mines Department assisted with the work done on the Northeast Fork of the Kitsault River this year, and also work done on East "Creek and at Hastings Arm. Very little road and trail work has been done in the Naas Valley this year. Surprise Party Given at Alice Arm Mr. and Mrs! T. W.

Mining Situation of the District Anyox The price of copper has been rising very gradually for some time and the newspaper quotations at the beginning of the week gave the price or copper at 13 3-8 cents per lb. This is indeed gratifying, especially to the people of Anyox, who will automatically get a raise of 75 cents per day as soon as copper is selling for 14 cents per ib. It is to be hoped that the price of copper will go over 14 cents and not act as it did last June, when it approached the 14 cent mark, only to drop back again to less than 12 cents. Copper at 14 cents will be a great help to the whole district; more money will be put into circulation and practically everyone will benefit. Alice Arm The price of silver still ranges around 70 cents per ounce and as long as it remains at that level, Alice Arm need not worry about her future. While no extensive mining development work has been done by any big company this past summer, considerable work has been done on several properties, especially qn the upper Kitsault River, and all work that has been done, has, without exception been very gratifying, and all those engaged in developmennt work have been well rewarded for their efforts. Extensive bodies of ore have been located on several properties and enough ore is in sight to warrant the investigation of any Mining Company that is looking for new properties. It is a pity that the Taylor Mining Company do not show more energy in developing the the Dolly Varden and Wolf mines. This company seems to be tangled .up so bad in all ways, shapes and forms that it seems doubtful if they will ever be able to do any extensive development work on their properties. It is to be hoped that next summer will see a change in the policy of this company and that they will either work ,the property themselves, or make it possible for some other company to operate. With the operation of these two properties, an impetuous would be given to the mining industry of Alice Arm that would rapidly place it in the position of one of the leading silver producing camps on the North American Continent. A regrettable feature that is retarding the operation of several properties on the upper Kitsault, is that the Dolly Varden Railway can not be used as a means of transportation, owing to the fact that the washouts which occured during the high water this fall have not yet been repaired. Several properties would have been operating this winter had transportation been available for the forwarding of supplies to the mines and the shipping of ore next summer. If the Taylor Company do not contemplate repairing the railroad next summer and extending it to the Wolf, the Government should take a hand in the situation and find some means of providing transportation, or the district will receive a set-back from which it will take years to recover. Anyox Community League Appreciated ~^~~~~ • : j /jG . j The" Council of the A. :" The matter of mine taxatioii was thoroughly discussed and a resolution was passed asking the govern-, ment in a resolution not to impose any further burdens on mining at present, it being pointed out that the present low price of metal's was causing a general stagnation in the mining industry.

Granby Company Obtains Clear Title to Cassidy Mine The legal fight that has been in progress for some considerable time between the Granby Consolidated Mining, Smelting & Power Company, Ltd. and the Dunsmuir Colleries Limited, represented by the Esquimalt & Nanaimo Railway was settled before the Privy Council in London, on November 17th. in favor of the Granby Company. With this judgement the Granby Company has won three decisive victories which confirm the absolute title of the oompany to a large area of valuable coal lands at Oassidy's Siding near Ladysmith.

"If we are to build up a self-sustaining , agriculture here at home, the farmer must be ^protected from unfair com petition from those countries where agriculture is still being exploited."— President Harding. The very spot chosen to deliver this speech—Minnesota—shows that Harding had the Canadian Northwest in mind. WHILE ties of friendship unite Canada and the United States, the attitude of Uncle Sam is that of "Business First", and Canada cannot and should not hope for any consideration from the United States where the interests of the farmers and business people of that country are involved. Uncle Sam has built the Fordney Tariff directly against Canadian agriculture, and new additional Tariff proposals are now under consideration to shut out from the United States Canadian goods of every kind. These measures are due to the insistence of the American farmer that the United States market shall be retained exclusively for him and that the influx of Canadian farm products into that country must cease. They are also due to a like insistence of United States manufacturers and workers, who have seen their country develop tremendously and grow rich, under a Protective Tariff, and who believe that a still further increase in Tariff is the only means of assuring continued prosperity. « CONTRAST THE ATTITUDE OF THE UNITED STATES LEADERS1 WJJH THAT OF CANADA'S WOULD-BE LEADERS. CRERAR'aNd'kJnc' Crerar proposes to allow American goods to enter the Canadian market free of duty. King proposes that the present reasonable Tariff on the products of the American factory and farm shall be greatly reduced, and that the home market of the Canadian farmer and manufacturer alike shall be thrown open to our Southern neighbour, .in the face of the United States Emergency tariff, which practically shuts out Canadian farm products from these markets; and also in the face of the permanent tariff now under consideration at Washington, which gives every promise of being^ even more drastic than the Emergency Tariff so, far as our products are concerned. In view of the attitude of the United States, what folly it is for Crerar and King to propose throwing open the Canadian market to a flood of both agricultural and manufactured products of the United States when there is not the slightest possibility of any compensative advantage to Canada. Does any sane Canadian believe that Crerar or King, hat in hand, could persuade the United States Government to completely reverse its Tariff policies and agree to reciprocal trade in face of American public demand for a high protective Tariff? The people of the United States conduct thdjr affairs and protect themselves by the principle that "Business is business." Why shoal M Canada do otherwise? Unlike Crerar or King, MEIGHEN stanifa firm for a reasonable Tariff to protect all oiir industries — those of the farm, the sea, tin pine, the forest, the factory, and for tin building up, of a bigger and better Canada through the full development of the home market. FRIENDSHIP WITH THE UNITED STATES? YES, BY ALL MEANS 1 DI' THP let us defend our nome market, our industries, our farms, our work- ~ Kl I I >ms men, our homes by the same methods as are used ao effectively ShtTlkttf, *\\ against us.
