No. 34. HAZELTON, B. C, FEBRUARY 23, 1912 TEN PAGES ROCHER de BOULE MINE COMES UP TO ALL EXPECTATIONS Tunnel on the Lower Vein Develops a Five Foot Chalcopyrite Vein Five Feet Wide that Will Run Over Nine Per Cent Copper--A Foot of High Grade Galena Lying Alongside r IL LETTER FROM THE EAST (By a Staff Correspondent) Toronto, Feb. 6, 1912 educating themselves to tea Three and-a-half Feet of Mineralized Rock on the Foot Wall���Tunnel is 174 Feet Long���Start Drifting this Week���Winz and Tunnel on the Upper Vein are Both Under Way. Rocher de Boule is all to the good. At a depth of 100 feet the vein has been tapped by a crosscut tunnel 174 feet long and the ore found at that depth is up to and beyond expectations. As the tunnel neared the ore the miners found next to the foot wall some three and a half feet of copper ore that was not very heavily mineralized. Upon cutting through this they struck a vein five feet wide that will run at least nine per cent chalcopyrite, or several per cent higher than the ore showed on the surface. Next to this and lying immediately alongside and with no rock separating it is a foot of galena which on the surface carried good silver values. This galena looks exceptionally good and will materially increase the value of the ore on this vein. Mr. J. A. Cowan arrived in town on Tuesday morning and sinking on the vein. The snow is still very deep and they had to do a lot of work before they got down to the cut, but they are now working on it and will continue to sink the winz until the water drives them out, which it naturally will in time. They have also started miners to work on the big tunnel which is to crosscut the upper vein at a depth of over 300 feet. Until the machinery gets up and in operation this tunnel will go slowly, but once the steam drills get busy they will drive through the rock at a good rate and before the summer is even well started Rocher de Boule will be known asoneofthe big mines of the Hazelton district. It is freely predicted locally that if the long tunnel shows the upper vein to be anything like as good at the 400 feet depth that the stock will go to several dollars a share. make sure they have got all there is. When that is done he will then start two gangs drifting both ways on the lower vein and that the development will be pushed ahead with all speed possible.

Hazelton and New Hazelton. UPPER LEAD ROCHER de BOULE. FOUR MEN STANDING ON SOLI!) BLUE COPPER Ontario has just passed through what the weather man says is the coldest January in 70 years, and incidentally without having the proverbial January thaw. Canadians have cultivated a habit , of breaking records and when they are not accomplishing the feat in the wheat field or the field of sport, or giving some pasture a miraculous touch and changing it into a city, why the boss of the weather bureau takes a hand at the job. May Canada I long continue the habit, but it is to be hoped that the meteorological artist does not head the class. ooo , Within a few years total pro- ; hibition of the liquor traffic will j be a live issue in Canadian politics, and it will be the principal j plank in the platform of one or I the other of the two great political parties. Already the Toronto I Globe has been advocating the ; Liberals to adopt the policy and judging from the rapid way Ontario is going "dry" under local option it will be a strategic political move. The average Canadian is ceasing to be afraid I of that bogey ���compensation to the liquor men. He is beginning to doubt the justice of the claim. He is also imbibing sufficient of the science of political economy to realize that the loss of the excise duties will not bankrupt the country, and further that the wealth annually wasted in liquor would go a long way to make up the increased C03t of living. Of course the East still has its horde of prohibition cranks, and the West has some too, but thousands of men, both east and west, not teetotalers, are favorable to total prohibition in Canada, believing it to be for the common good Whether the reader is favorable to such a policy himself or nut, beyond a doubt he will see it in force in Canada in the nut distant future. ooo A glance into the fea room of any one of the big hotels late in the afternoon would give one the impression that the young bloods have already forseen the suspension of the liquor traffic and are drinking in its stead. The time was that a tea-drinking man was looked upon as a molly but to-day a quartette of sports find it quite the proper thing to take an hour for afternoon tea. The habit has really been infected from England and it is growing so rapidly that the hotels find it a profitable trade. The sport who frequents the tea room also finds it a very successful way of getting rid of his money at the prices charged. The tea room has an advantage over the bar because the ladies are ever present and a boy and his best girl can get a tea souse together. o o o The decision of the Dominion and Fisheries department to put two new fast patrol boats on the sea coast to chase poachers, (Continued on page 7) Lots of Supplies. From time to time it has been stated around town that construction of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway would not make the progress in the future as in the past. That the contractors were now worse off than ever they were in the matter of getting their supplies out to the various camps. It has been said that many of the camps were running short and that the new camps could not get their sup- j plies and material in. Such reports are without any foundation Foley, Welch & Stewart have several hundred horses hauling all the time and they have made greater headway this year than ever before. The camps are all well stocked and the new camps are getting their machinery and supplies out in better shape than ever. In spite of the fact that the laying of the steel made it a j little inconvenient to haul from Kitselas, the contractors have overcome all obstacles. There are more supplies in the country now than ever and they never before came in so fast. The best proof against the stories referred to is the remarkable progress that is being made on the grading contracts. brought the good news in, with him. He is very enthusiastic over the property and particularly over the lower vein turning out so well. In that vein alone, he says, they have a mine which will return the values and give the tonnage. It is an ideal concentrating proposition, and as it is one of the smaller veins on the property it will add that much more to the value of the stock. He brought samples of the copper ore and of the galena ore over with him to be assayed, and as soon as the results are known they will be made public. On Monday, he and Mr. Brown, with two men went up to the upper vein, which is the big vein of the property and the one on which they are all depending for the success of the mine, and started the first gang to work on The greatest interest is taken in Hazelton in the progress and development of Rocher de Boule mine, not only by the stock holders, who are many, but by the citizens generally, as they realize that with this property showing up well at depth that it will bring in more prospectors and more capital for the rest, of the country. But the local people are not more interested or more concerned about the rapid development of the property than are the men who have charge and control of the stock. To them it means far more than to the local stock holders, and they are doing their utmost to shove the work through. Mr. Cowan also states that, although he is satisfied that they have reached the hanging wall, he has the men driving the tunnel some five or six feet further to LOWER VEIN ROCHER de BOULE INTO WHICH THE CROSS CUT TUNNEL WAS DRIVEN THE OMINECA HERALD, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1912.

It goes somewhere, and way down in the distance there is a clump of trees, a turn of the hill, and beyond that the mysterious and magical call uf the unknown. It is that that has made men leave their homes and kindred and plunge into the untried dangers of the unseen. The road has always called men out of their ruts and small horizons to the bigger things that flit beyond and hide behind every distant grove to flare up in the sunset, and die in the west, only to sleep with the stars and then to rise with the phantom shadows of the dawn and waken the drowsy traveller to another day of pursuit. "Every stage of progress has registered itself in the road. Primitive man walked in a trail that wandered whither it listed and ended whence he became weary. He saw the trail and recognized the tracks thereof, but whence it came and whither it went, he knew not. It was simply a trail and nothing more, without beginning of time or ending of days; it was as aimless as his life. "There are no earlier marks of civilization than the roads that men began to build as soon as human life became less beast and more man. In the up-reach after the better, men must have roads or they could make no progress, and roads became. Rome built roads, the roads built Rome. Greece, isolated, individual, valley dwelling Greece, did without roads; the world did without Greece, and both lost heavily. Good roads would have saved Athens. Europe built roads, and Europe led the world. It matters not whether the roads or the leadership came first, they both came, and neither could live without the other. England, doughty little England, did more for transportation by land and sea than any other country, and, well, England is England. North America is,���again the less said the better, except for the fact that there seems to be a great awakening in progress that will be far [reaching in its results. This roads boom has been slow, but it looks as if we are getting pretty warm and things are already beginning to happen all over the country. Four years more will see a revolution in the condition of North American roads. And when it comes, there will come with it a distinct advance in the quality of civilization. Land values will increase, the farmers' share will be doubled, money will move more free ly, and every machanic, artisan, business man and circus manager will be benefited by the change. Hazelton a Railway Centre From time to time the Herald has advocated a railway from Hazelton to the Ground Hog Mountain Coalfields to bring the i coal from that immense area of "fixed carbon " down to this centre and here transfer east to the praires arnl west to the coast. We have also urged upon the Board of Trade and every citizen of this town and district to unite on this one question at least and use all influence and influences to secure this road. From time to time we have pointed out the excellence of the grade which will follow the Skeena river J most of the way. Such a railway will build a big city at New Hazelton. It will make a railway city, a mining city, a manufacturing city and an agricultural city. The Ground Hog railway will not only bring in coal to New Hazelton but it will open up the Kispiox Valley ��� a large and exceptionally fertile valley ���and bring in the produce from that country and carry outj supplies. It will open up a new mining district that to date very little is known although good samples of different minerals have been found and not a few claims staked. Those who have been in the hills along the upper Skeena have great faith in the' mining possibilities. This all means one or more; small towns in the Kispiox Valley with New Hazelton as their headquarters and shopping and market place. It also means that New Hazel-1 ton mav develop into a manufac- * i turing centre and the Hazelton merchants in the new town will not only retain the vast business] with the far north of the present, but they will have the first call on the new business of the vaster north. These things the Herald has long been advocating and it is a pleasure to announce that many are the followers who are now realizing the truth and the feasibility of the policy. May the time soon come when we, the citizens of the Nothern Interior of British Columbia, may see as one man the value to ourselves and to the district and to the Province, of unity on the railway to Ground Hog Mountain. We will go one step further and will advocate for a share in the new Peace River Railway! scheme that Premier McBride: will make his appeal to the electors on in a few months. The Peace River Railway from Vancouver to New Hazelton is feasable and would put this district in direct touch with the greater portion of the province, a state of affairs most desirable. The "live wires" in Vancouver and Victoria are already playing a campaign in favor of the Peace River Railway via New Hazelton with a branch line to tap the coal fields. Vancouver and Vic- ' toria have awakened to the great possibilities of central and i Northern British Columbia. Hazelton district can do much worse than cast in its lot with the big interests. All that is required is unity of purpose and a little energetic initiative. W. J. Larkworthy General merchant Complete line of merchandise always on hand.

Sargent & Haller Jewelers - Hazelton The tri-weekly mail service has again been inaugurated between Prince Rupert and Hazelton and the first mail on the new service arrived here on Tuesday at noon. In future the mails will have to leave Hazelton Monday, Thursday and Saturday and in this way close connection will bQ made with the trains, and the transportation to and from the district will be greatly improved. It is also rumored that in the near future there will be a daily train service from Rupert to the end of steel and in that case there will be a daily mail to Hazelton. While Hazelton is enjoying this good service, Messrs. Beirnes & Mulvaney, the mail contractors and stage men, are getting things ready to continue their business into the Bulkley valley and give the people out there a tri-weekly service, and later on if the traffic is sufficient they will put on a daily stage. As it is the new three-times a week stage will make the trip to the valley from Hazelton in one day with a stop at noon for luncheon. Relay stations are now being established along the road and a fine big new barn is about completed in Hazetlon which will serve as the headquarters for the outfit. Messrs. Beirnes & Mulvaney have secured C. G. Harvey's vacant store house on the Indian Reserve and they have made room in it for some twenty head of horses as well as an immense amount of feed. Mr. Beirnes leaves about the middle of March for the south where he will purchase wheels and gear for the stages and when the sleighing is done the wheeled vehicles will be all ready. It makes no difference where the steel will be or where the chief stopping place will be, Beirnes & Mulvaney will have their stage there to meet all trains and all boa.s so that passengers and the mails will not be belayed.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1911 STEEL LAID TO BULKLEY SUMMIT BY JANUARY NEXT Rapid Progress on the Grading Contracts=-Track Laying and Construction of the Bridges==Everything will be Ready for the SteelGangs the It is still early is the game to make any predictions but upon the best authority obtainable the Herald does not hesitate to state that the steel for the Grand Trunk Pacific railway will be laid all the way from Prince Rupert to the Bulkley Summit next January, 1913. This prediction is based upon the rapid progress that the grading contractors are making and upon the new and rapid methods of constructing steel bridges. The first of this week the steel was laid past Lome Creek and it was travelling towards the Skeena bridge at the rate of a mile a day and in the face of great obstacles. It will be at the bridge early in April or sooner. By that time the bridge will be completed and ready for the steel gangs. The second caisson is now over half down and NEW HAZELTON DOINGS they are working on the upper] works of the first. The steel! work and the track laying on j this bridge will not require over! sixty days, with just ordinary luck. Then there will be no delay until they get to the Sealey gulch and there will be a stop of some six or seven days to throw the steel across that bridge. The rails will then run along to New Hazelton and on to Mud Creek where another steel bridge will cause a delay of five or six days, and so on through to the Bulkley Summit. To those not under- j standing railroad work this may appear rushing things. It is up to the railwayconipayand the bridge men and they are being urged on all sides to rush things. If they are ready with their men and material the steel will be! j at the Summit in January 1913. j enlarge the accommodation. Still the people continue to loiter around section one. Both business places and residents are! being built in this section, or very close to it. This week three more j buildings for new businesses were started on Thirteenth Ave., section one. These will bring more and the district is growing rapidly. j i Word was received this week from J. H. Kugler that he had just closed a contract for adver-j tising in 1394 newspapers and magazines in Canada and the I United States. Mr. Kugler is the sole selling agent for Section one and Section three. It is this New Hazelton property that he is now advertising and the contract referred to will include every paper of standing in the country. Thus is New Hazelton being ad- vertised and brought to the notice of the Canadian and American public.

Paget gets a big interest in the Silver King group on Hudson Bay mountain. This group is situated on the face of the mountain and is the first that is passed along the trail. It also joins onto the rich free silver property discovered last fall by Hankin. It is owned bv Dan Cameron. Matuss, Joe Merkley and John O'Herin. On the property is a sixty foot tunnel and the vein is twenty feet wide in places. Mr. Paget is putting in several thousand dollars and all his money will be put into the ground to open up the vein and see what there is in it at depth. The tunnel will be continued into the hill until it cuts the vein, a distance of about 300 feet, which will give a depth of about 500 ft. When that is done the boys will have a good idea of what there is in the property and if they find the goods they will proceed with big developments. Silver King is well situated on the face of the mountain and right on the trail. It is close to the railway and has an easy grade all the way down. As a working property it is ideal.

' i comes none too soon ���in fact these boats should have been built ten years ago. Why the ] Laurier government persistently ignored this duty and let the Yankee poachers carry off millions of pounds of Canadian fish annually is hard to understand. It almost looked as though the late government were in sympathy with the poachers, or were afraid to tackle the question of what constitutesCanadian waters. When the new patrol boats begin operations trouble is sure to follow and the question of ownership in Hecate Straits, where the world's greatest halibut banks are, is sure to come up. Canada's claim to Hecate Straits was undoubtedly a very reasonable and just one but the Laurier government, by giving bonding privileges to fish taken from those waters, has jeopardized Canada's claim by recognizing those fish as United States fish. Asa matter of fact had the Dominion government asserted its rights years ago and patrolled these waters the Canadian rights would never have been disputed but it has now become a troublesome international question which it will be the duty of the Borden government to settle. It is to be sincerely hoped that this will be one time that the U. S. diplomats do not put it all over the Canadians. ooo This seems to be the season of elections. The success of Hon. R. L. Borden last September has given several provincial govern- ments the notion. Ontario and Prince Edward Island had snap judgments and returned Conser- j vative governments and now Saskatchewan and British Columbia are bringing on contests. In British Columbia the elections are not due for two years yet but Premier McBride wants to get a new lease of power while the going is good for the Tory war horse. He will probably call on the elections about the middle of April. At least that is the rumor at Ottawa. The excuse for his appeal to the electors at this particular time is to have a referendum on his proposed Peace River railroad policy. The B.C. premier evidently believes in utilizing the referendum and modern theories of government to win elections but he does not believe in giving municipalities the right to adopt modern methods of civic government. ooo The Conservative administrations of the country would popularize themselves in the eves of. the independent electors if they introduced the reform of having a fixed time for Dominion and Provincial elections. The present system of permitting the premier to call an election any time he chooses within a stated period of years is tyrannical in principal and unjust in its application. [ Premiers and cabinets are always | human, and sometimes crafty, and as such are unlikely to overlook any advantage of taking snap verdicts at the polls, but in doing this the needs and rights of the common people get no consideration. If there is an option in election dates it ought to be upon the demand of the electors and not for the pleasure of the man whose ambition is to keep himself in control of the state affairs. Conservatives in the past have been big enough to give popular and unselfish legislation. Let them now give us fixed elections. ooo The bye-election in Renfrew, which will take place in March, has already been fought out several times by the leading eastern newspapers. The result, however, is still in doubt. It has evolved itself into a question of whether the officers of a local association have the right to trade and barter in the franchises of the constituents. When the Liberal member of the Dominion House for Renfrew resigned in order to make a seat for the Hon. George P. Graham, the Renfrew Tory member of the Legislature saw a chance to get an easy re-election to the Provincial House which had just been dissolved. He and the officers of the Tory Association agreed to let the Hon. Graham in to the Dominion parliament without opposition providing McGarry was returned to the Legislature by acclamation. McGarry got his but before Graham's election came on the Dominion Tories at Ottawa raised an objection to the deal, and insisted on fighting the Hon. George P. to a finish. Just why the Conservatives at Ottawa should fear George P. Graham, or even object to him being in the House is difficult to understand. Apart from his witty repartee he is not a talented speaker and he has not to date exhibited any brilliant statemanship. The Tories should not be so easily frightened by Hon. Graham's aspirations to the premiership. When the Ottawa Tories decided to contest Renfrew, Hon. J. D Reid, who had been a neighbor of the Hon. Mr. Graham for many years, was sent to whip the boys into line and naturally a howl of protest immediately went up from all the Grit newspapers. The Globe led them off with a Monday morning sermonette on "honor, "claiming that the Tories should deliver the goods, and quite ignoring the fact that the voters of Renfrew are really the only ones entitled to express an opinion on the subject. Of course McGarry and the other Tories who were a party to the deal will stick by the agreement but what the other Tories will do remains to be seen. With several cabinet ministers taking part in the fight the contest will be a hot one in spite of the winter weather. Hon. J. D. Reid who holds the kindergarten portfolio in the new Borden cabinet-the Minister of Customs���is getting himself very much in the news and editorial columns of the newspapers. He is what is commonly known as the "goat" of the cabinet, and he is enjoying the job. When the Tories first took hold of things at Ottawa the premier in caucus strongly objected to the spoils system and wanted charges of "offensive partizanship " made and tried before any civil servants were removed from office, but the majority of the Conservative members refused to accept that unweildly and unsatisfactory plan of getting rid of the troublesome office holders. They insisted that each member should be an absolute court in his own constituency. The members prevailed and the boys who have made themselves obnoxious to the Tory candidates are now being summoned to the guillitine. Hon. J. D. Reid is the minister who is taking most of the responsibility and blame for this drastic but effective method of cleaning out the departments, and nothing gives him greater pleasure than to let out a Grit. In his own country the Doctor has leaned out the "offensive parti- zans" so thoroughly that it is doubtful if there will be enough Grits left to nominate his opponent next election. o o o The Canadian Highways Improvement Act being a bill providing for the Dominion Government to grant assistance to the provinces for good roads, is one which will very materially interest the new towns of the west 1 where good roads are appreciated. The new government at Ottawa has the right prospective when they introduce legislation of this kind. Canada is beginning to realize that good transportation from farm to the railway is just as important in the plan of political economy as is the transcontinental railway. The Dominion proposes to give financial assist- to the provinces to build modern and permanent highways, and a trunk road across the continent is suggested. THE OMINECA HERALD, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1911 PERSONAL AND LOCAL H. H. Clarke arrived in town on Tuesday and left again to-day for a trip into the valley. The Indians are getting some good catches of salmon up the river. They are fishing through the ice.

The society will meet again next Thursdav afternoon and a full attendance of members is requested. Walter Harper returned from a trip to the valley last Friday and left on Sunday for Prince Rupert. He will return to this district again in the spring. While in the valley he was very successful in a business way and took many orders for clothing away with him. Duncan Ross was in town on Monday on his way to Vancouver where he will attend the Liberal Convention as a delegate from the Hazelton district. Mr. Ross will be away for two or three weeks and when he gets back he will make a full report to the Liberal Association here. OBITUARY SURVEYS! J. H. Gray, (*OVI''KNMI_NT LAND SURVEYOR Telkwa. B.C.

RAGSTAD WATCHES clocks JEWELRY Ha/.elton, B.C Mrs. J. C. K. Sealey About five o'clock on Thursday morning H. M. Morrison, wife of J. C. K. Sealey, passed away at the Hazelton Hospital after a very brief illness. Until some four or five weeks ago the deceased had enjoyed the best of health and it was not until a few days ago that her illness was considered at all serious. She was taken to the hospital on Saturday night and on Monday underwent an operation from which she did not recover although at first it was thought she would pull through successfully. A turn for the worse set in Wednesday and she gradually sank until Thursday morning when she passed to the life beyond. The late Mrs. Sealey was the eldest daughter of Major and Mrs.Morrison, of Port Essington, but for years residents of Hazelton. She was in her twenty-ninth year and had always enjoyed her health and strength. In the death of Mrs. Sealey, Hazelton looses one of its most highly respected women; one who had ever worked quietly for those around her, and in case of trouble or sickness she was always found to be a real friend. Besides her aged father and mother and her husband, one sister, Miss Victoria Morrison, and one brother, John Morrison, are left to mourn her loss, and to them is extended the heart felt sympathy of the whole community. Arrangements for the funeral will be announced later. W. D. Jardine Death was a sudden caller on W. D. Jardine who has been on | the Hazelton Hotel staff for a couple of months, and who was previously in charge of the books at the Omineca Hotel for several j years. The deceased was in his usual health until a couple of days ago when he complained of not feeling well, but he was not confined to his bed until Wednesday. He did not appear I at the usual hour that morning and the porter went up to call him. It was necessary to get a pass-key to enter the room and the late Mr. Jardine was found unconscious and he remained in that condition until seven o'clock yesterday morning when he passed away. He was about 45 years of age and had been following his work as book-keeper along the coast and in this dis-, trict for many years and he was was widely known and well liked. He is a brother of John Jardine, . M.P.P. for Esquimalt and he hasi been notified by C. G. Harvey, of j the Hazelton Hotel. The funeral arrangements will not be announced until the brother is heard from. Church Union Vote Within the next week or two! the congregation of the Presby- j terian churches in this district will be asked to vote on the question of organic union of the Presbyterian, Methodist and Congre-j gational churches. Rev. D. R. | McLean has copies of the plan upon which the union is proposed to be based, and he will also, no doubt explain the meaning and the advantages of the union, and also give a short history of the movement. It is now some ten or eleven years since the first general conference was held and the heads of the different churches have arrived at something they consider to be practical. After the congregations have all expressed themselves by ballot there will still be several years work before the union of these three great churches is an actual fact. Omineca Hotel J. C. K.
