Two Feet of Ore Found Underground on WoM Will Put Property in Steady Shipping Class High grade silver ore was encountered underground on the Wolf property near Palls Creek on Sunday last, hy J. Fiva and associates who have a bond on the property. The ore vein is ahout two feet wide, and is impregnated with native, brittle and ruby silver. The vein dips into the hill at an angle of about 25 degrees, and is one of, the strongest and best defined veins ever found in tbe district. The banging wall section of the vein was first encountered, at a distance of 110 feet from the portal of the tunnel, and the stuping ground to the surface is 70 feet. The vein has been traced for a distance of 600 feet on the surface, and it can readily be seen that a large tonnage of ore is now available for miuing. As soon as the tunnel has been extended to the footwall, a drift will be driven on the ore to the north, and stoping of ore will commence. A drift will later be driven on the south also. The Wolf, which is within three minutes' walk of Alice Ann was bonded last fall by J. Fiva and associates from J. Stark, after they had prospected the ground and found an interesting surface showing of ore caused by the uprooting of a tree. They stripped this showing and incidentally took off 16 tons of ore which realized $100.00 per ton in silver and gold. A tunnel was then commenced in order to encounter the ore at depth. Work on the tunnel has been pushed with great rapidity during the past few months, and the longed-for contact with the ore occurred last Saturday. Dogged perseverance, plus hard work and good judgement has again won out, and another shipping mine has been added to Alice Arm's growing list. Shipping mines are what makes la mining oamp, and from present J tppearances Alice Arm will shortly Ihave a flock of them. I The Wolf has been brought to a shipping stage without the aid of jutside capital, and is another proof of the ease with whioh ore :an be located in this rich mineral llistriot. j A large blacksmith shop aud ore .hed, also a short tramline was onstructed last fall, and everything ? in readiness for the mining and hipping of ore in considerable iiiantities. [New Yorker Visits Camp Although the season is yet early lie tide of mining engineers iscom- lencing to flow into Alice Arm. >n Monday, Paul F. Brown, mining igineer of New York city arrived om the south. He found that he •as too early to make an examin- t ion of the camp, but plans to re- irn at a later date. He left for ie south on Thursday. A Canadian Spirit and Conscience Lacking Says McRaye The spirit which enabled the early pioneers of this vast country to overcome what were apparently insurmountable obstacles, the indomitable courage and tenacity of spirit of the Canadian troops in the late war and the spirit of do"-' operation amongst themselves. The lack of an appreciation of Canada by those living here, and the need for unity, coupled with an appeal for more instructive teaching of Canadian history, were discussed by Walter McRaye in the Recreation Hall on Wednesday March 7th. The great need of the people of Canada today, declared Mr. McRaye is a Canadian conscience. Proceeding the speaker referred to the spirit of the Canadian forces at Ypres, and said that over there the men going over the top to make an attack did not look to see if the man next to them were from tire West or from the East. They saw Canada on his shoulder, that was enough. This unity of spirit was an exemplication which we as the people of a vast dominion should strive to uphold for the common good of our country and all its enterprises. The past history of Canada is worthy of study by all who are living in the Dominion today. It will enlighten us as to the struggles of the early pioneers; the Indian Wars; the story of the Hudson Bay Co; the laying of the C. P. R. tracks. All these said the speaker are epics of which any country might be proud, and yet how much of them are taught in our schools today? The history of Canada he continued, is founded on the success of earnest endeavour. In i ts pages one sees optimism at its best, yet we Canadians are not enthusiastic. Why? because we have never been taught about our wonderful history Our American neighbors across the border take good care that the history of theirown country is instilled in the young mind and what is the outcome? A Nation of Boosters for theirown country, and all its products. The trouble is that we have no national conscience; our outlook is provincial or local. We cannot rise to a national aspeot. The government is seeking to change this, but before it can educate the nation it must educate itself, declared Mr. McRaye. It is hard to realize, but nevertheless unfortunately true that no ohild bom in Canada today is a Canadian. The very birth certificate robs it of its birthright. Ou this certificate it is clearly stated as that of the parents, because there is no Canadian nationality, that term merely denotes citizenship. Mr. McRaye emphasized the fact and was proud to say he was 100% Canadian and I take off my hat to i Al ALICE ARM NOTES 4- ).>fi.f>i'H'i«'f>fi't'»)'i')'»i'i')l See Al.

Sulphide Ores are Still Burning in Arizona Copper Field United Verde Copper advanced another step toward the completion of its stripping programme recently when 100,000 ll>. of geletin dynamite was set*off in one blast. The dynamite was loaded in two tunnels the faces of which were 50 and 100 ft in from the face of a 175 ft. cliff. It is estimated that the blast loosened and made available for removal by steam shovel 150,000 cu. yd. of rook. The overburden which is being moved overlies the ore body to a depth of 300 ft. Steam-shovel operations have been in progress for five years, and though designed primarily to uncover the fire zone of the mine, have proven profitable, owing to the uncovering of considerable amounts of valuable ore Other attempts to extinguish the fire which has existed in parts of the sulphide ores for a number of years have been unsuccessful. The two tunnels in whioh the recent blast was set off were so close to the fire zone that the temperature in the firing chambers wasl20deg. F.

Canada has the largest forest resources in the British Empire. Summary B. C. Mining Given by J. D. Galloway John D. Galloway, Provincial Mineralogist frankly attributes the great increase in the values of the mineral production of British Columbia during recent years partly to publicity. Addressing the local branch of the Engineers' Institute of Canada at Victoria, on February 17th, Mr. Galloway gave some interesting figures. He stated that the value of the mineral production of British Columbia for 1925 was $61500,000, of which $47,000,000 was in metals, $11,500- 000 in coal and coke, and the remainder in building materials and non-metallics. Of the lode production 72 per cent was treated in the province, 13 per cent was partly treated in the province, and 15 per cent was shipped to foreign countries in the crude state. There are 15,000 men employed iu the industry, representing an annual payroll of $25,000,000. Profits derived from the industry are hard to arrive at, Mr. Galloway averred. Dividends do not tell the whole tale: reserves set aside and taxes paid to governments must be added to the dividends. During last year 10 per cent of the value' of the gross production was paid in dividends. The total sum invested in the industry in the province is $150,000,000. In 1924, the last year for which the information is available, the per-eapita value of the mineral production for the whole of Canada was $24; that of British Columbia was $93;Ontario, $29; and Quebec, $10. Prospectors Too Anxious to Get Underground Mr. Douglas Lay, resident mining engineer for the North-eastern mining district in a recent address given at Smithers said that: "In developing mining properties, prospectors were in too big a hurry to get under ground, which he considered a great mistake. With very few exceptions the surface strength would be found to be an accurate indication of what would be found at depth. This being so It was important for prospectors to thoroughly prospect the surface and by all means to stick to his ore. It was much better to sink on the ore than to attempt long cross-cuts, but where physical conditions were right it was of course better to drift on the ore and in this way avoid the expense and disappointment of throwing up the property because a fault had come in to change the dip of the vein."

Shows Big Production The annual report of the Premier Gold Mining Co. has now been published for the year ending December 31st. 1925, and following are various interesting items taken therefrom: "A new orebody of probably only . moderate importance as to tonnage and value was found towards the end of the year by some flat diamond drill holes, running south-east from the main orebody upon No. 1 level. This new orebody runs approximately parallel with the main ore zone for 200 feet therefrom It has been drifted upon for 200 feat or more with an average gold- silver value of about $14 for a six foot width. Drifting is being continued and the persistence of this ore at depth will be investigated by drill holes from the second and third levels. No tonnage from this new orebody has been included in the ore estimates of the December 31st. 1925, as it is not as yet sufficiently developed." "Balance sheet as of December 31st. 1925, and Profit and loss statement for the year 1925 are embodied in this report. The total earnings for 1925 before deducting administration expense, taxes, depreciation and ore depletion, were $2,013,481.60, or $708,124.31 less than in the year 1924. This decrease is due to the gradual exhaustion of the high grade ore so characteristic of the earlier production years of the property and the consequent lower average grade of the ores mined. It was in view of this situation that the doubling of the milling capacity for low grade ores was undertaken last year, the benefits of which will begin to appear upon the completion in March of the new mill unit; It will be observed that as deduction from total earnings, taxes for 1922 are $405,848.48, compared with $188,932.35 in 1924, even though the earninings in 1925 were i. This is due to a new ruling I made last year by the Finance [Minister of British Columbia with ■respect to permissible deductions [from earnings, for ore depletion, in ■arriving at taxable earningsin con- Iformity with which ruling, your ■company was required to pay to Ithe Provincial Government of British Columbia $213,990.99 as [additional taxes for preceding years. (At the same time the Finance Minister reduced the Provincial tax from ■10 per cent, to 8 per cent, upon net earnings. Even with this reduction to 8 per cent, however, the ■act remains that metal mining operations in British Columbia, taking Itlso into consideration the Doinin- No Money For Highway We haven't got the money to go into a scheme of that sort," said the minister of public works, Hon W.

Following is a summary of the amount of underground work done during 1925 and the quantity of ore shipped: Diamond drilling, 13,500 feet. Development drifts aud raises, 5,684 feet. Ore mined (dry tons) 168,557. Ore milled (dry tons) 55,704. Ounces of .gold produced, 119,725. Ounces of silver produced, 2,559- 192. Pounds of lead produced. 870,971. Average price of silver (per oz.) 69.06c. Ore broken in stopes, 243,511 tons averaging 0.04 ounces gold and 14.7 ounoes silver.

ALICE ARM AND ANYOX HERALD, Saturday, April 10, 1926 Canadian Spirit & Conscience Lacking Says McRaye Continued from Page 1 have the most wonderful country in the world and how do many of its inhabitants regard it? Merely as a glorified meal ticket, to be worked until we have made enough and then back to the country we are proud to own. Mr. McRaye also pointed out the conditions which exist today in connection with our raw products, taking the paper industry. In several of the pulp mills today, the raw product is baled up and ship ped to the United States to be made into paper. The Sunday Editions published in the United States takes 2,000 acres of Canadian pulpwood, the Saturday Evening Post and the Ladies Home Journal require for one issue, approximately 40 acres each to supply the demand. A greater part of the mineral wealth of the Dominion is sent to the U. S. A. to be smelted and turned into the finished product. The same with our lumber and fishing industries, which we eventually buy back in the finished product, besides giving em ployment to citizens of another country, which should rightfully be ours. When are the people of Canada going to wake up and get out of the rut and realize the possibilities of their own oountry and be 100% boosters. Invest your money in Canada in sound Canadian enterprises and buy only Canadian products. In conclusion the speaker said. Get away from the jazzy restless wave of today. It behooves us to drop our sectional difference and take a national view. Let us change our motto of "Canada for the Canadians" to the "Canadians for Canada." This accomplished and we will be building up the unity between North and South between East and West between the Dominion and the Empire and we will be making Canada worthy of her gallant sixty thousand sons who laid down their lives on the fields of France aud Flanders. t ANYOX NOTES t +••>•+•••+•••+**"**+" ■#»+<»4 .•*+ *■»+'•*♦'*'♦ ***♦ ANYOX COMMUNITY LEAGUE Beach Recreation Hall: Pictures: Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays Mine Recreation Hall: Pictures: Wednesdays and Fridays POOL, BILLIARDS, SMOKES, Etc Help the Organization that Serves You LAND ACT.
