C, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1911 TEN PAGES SILVER STANDARD A WONDER I IN EXCEPTIONALLY RICH ORE HAZELTON IS A WONDER; IT HAS A GREAT FUTURE ASSAYS GIVE NEARLY EIGHT HUNDRED DOLLARS IN SILVER Shaft Down Seventy-Five Fezt���Will be Continued Eight Feet More and Then They Will Start a Drift���Samples Taken from Twenty- Two Inch Vein by H. L. McHugh. Seven hundred and ninety eight dollars and twenty four cents was the assay value of a piece of rock taken out of the bottom of the seventy-five foot shaft on Silver Standard mine on Monday. There is great rejoicing in town now. To find that class of ore at the depth stated proves the Silver Standard a mine and it is of great significance to the whole camp. Silver Standard has always been considered a high grade property, but this last assay beats anything yet discovered in the camp except the native silver find on Hudson Bay mountain a few weeks ago. The ore assayed 1452 oz. in silver and 18 per cent copper. This was not a selected sample but one taken out of the vein which is 22 inches wide at the foot of the shaft. The ore in this shaft has been improving with every foot of sinking and this new stuff is much superior to any other found so far. The vein started out with silver and lead and just a trace of copper. The lead has now almost disappeared and its place taken by grey copper. The ore is exceptionally fine looking stuff although the samples fooled the mining men in town who had no idea that it carried such high silver values. The samples were brought in by Mr. H. L. McHugh, one of the owners, and he picked the piece up himself and measured the vein himself. The vein is a true fissure and will undoubtedly be one of the most profitable in the whole camp. Work will be continued on the shaft until it is down about 80 feet and then they will start drifting. This work will be continued all winter. There is enough high grade ore on the dump now to almost make the second payment on the property and when spring comes there will be a great bunch of ore to ship ! out. An Overseas Club A meeting is called for next Tuesday evening in the Presbyterian reading rooms over J. Mason Adams drug store for the purpose of organizing an Overseas Club for Hazelton. Mr. J. F. Macdonald has undertaken the organization work and he has interested a large number of business men in the movement. The object of the club is chiefly to maintain and strengthen the bonds that bind the different parts of the British Empire. This movement was started just three | years ago by the London Daily ! Mail and now they have a membership of over 50,000 in all parts of the world. The club in Prince Rupert has been very successful. At different seasons of the year entertainments of various I kinds are held and altogether it 1 is a good thing for the club and fcr the individual members. It would be especially beneficial in Hazelton where the nights are dark and the winters long with very little amusement offering. It is hoped that a large gathering will be present on Tuesday night Mr. P. E. Sands Surprised and Amazed at the Mineral Resources and the Real Natural Realty-He Will Boost the District Hard. at 8 o'clock. Coppley, Noyes & Randall, of Hamilton, Ontario, do not make the cheapest cloths in Canada, but they do make the best Mr. P. E. Sands, the Seattle representative of the Studebaker Corporation, and the man who undertook the trip from his home city to Hazelton by automobile, is the most pleased man in the north just now. He said to the Herald this morning that while the trip was an extremely hard one and that they had many trying times, he would not have missed it for anything. After they got past the rough part and found their way to Aldermere the rest of the journey has been one round of pleasure. The people are all big, energetic and friendly. They are like the country in which they live "the best in the world." When he arrived in Hazelton he was more than surprised to find the big crowd waiting to give him a welcome. He expected that he would be received the same as in his own country where the people allowed them to pass without taking any notice. Such was not the case here. He has has had the best time of his life and he says that he cannot thank the committee and the people as a whole to much. The manner in which he and his party have been treated since their arrival has been grand. The only way he feels that he can return any part of their kindness is to be a real booster of the Hazelton district and this he says he will be. He is gathering a lot of data of the immense resources of the district which he will use in special feature stories in all the papers of Seattle, Portland and other American cities in which his firm has a connection. He has seen many samples of very rich ore at various time between Aldermere and Hazelton and he says that to boost does not need any extravagant of fictious language. The stuff here so far as he has seen is genuine and he wonders that more is not known on the outside From a picturesque standpoint Mr. Sands said that there was nothing he had seen yet which could begin to compare with this district. He has been taking many pictures and he was trying to get a panorama picture of this town showing Rocher de Boule and the bench lands of the valley. These would be used in the special articles and also for reference and for pictures afterwards. The Studebaker Corporation, which Mr. Sands represents, is (Continued on page five) AUTOMOBILE MADE A PATH FROM SEATTLE TO HAZELTON P. E. SANDS AND FLANDERS 20 ACCOMPLISH THE IMPOSSIBLE An Automobile Travelled Overland and was the First Vehicle to Come into this District from the Interior���Reception and Banquet Tendered Them Here. The Flanders No. 20 Automobile arrived in Hazelton Wednesday evening at 9.40 o'clock it being the first automobile to come into this town over an all land route from Seattle or any other point. The Flanders No, 20 accomplished the impossible and came over a road, or at least over a country that no other vehicle ever travelled and some parts of it even horses have not been over. Mr. P. S. Sands, of Seattle, who undertook the trip with a machinist, and a photographer are heroes and they deserve all the credit that can possibly be bestowed upon them. The Flanders automobile which carried them is also worthy of notice as it would have been out of the question to make the trip in any other machine. The Flanders has proven itself strong, durable, and a mountain climber. Mr. Sands and his party left Seattle on August 28th with the view of finding a path from Seattle to the Canadian boundary and then up through the central interior of British Columbia to the Northern interior with Haz- ���elton as their objective point. They were thirty-seven days on the road and they win the cup that has been offered by the Pacific Highway Association for the past three or four years. Several others have attempted the trip but failed. It was left for Mr. Sands and the Flanders No. 20 automobile to cut the path. The progress of the party has been watched with great interest by the people of this district and when word was received from Aldermere on Wednesday that they had left there that morning it was arranged to tender them a*' reception upon their arrival here. A great number of people were watching all afternoon and in the evening a number went out to meet the travellers but they were delayed near Moricetown and did not get in until 9.40. By that time many had gone home but there was still a big crowd around to give them a welcoming cheer when they pulled in at the Hazelton Hotel. A flash light photo was also taken of the party and the townspeople who had gathered around. On Thursday afternoon at 3.30 Mr. Sands and his associates were met in from of the Hazelton by Mr. Ellison, Government Agent, and a big crowd of people. Mr. Sands presented to Mr. Ellison the letter that Mayor Dilling, of Seattle, gave him to bring to Hazelton. Mr. Ellison accepted the letter and upon behalf of himself and the people of Hazelton he thanked Mr. Sands and congratulated him upon his successful trip and upon the splendid work he had accomplished in the interests of good roads in British Columbia as well as across the boarder. Another photograph was taken and the crowded cheered the visitors, as they started their machine off towards the upper bench with Mr. Ellison as a passenger. The Banquet On Thursday night a banquet was tendered Mr. Sands and party at the Hazelton Hotel and without doubt it was the biggest success of any similar affair ever held in this town. The occasion marked one of the greatest epoch making events in the town's history, and Mine Host Harvey did himself credit, THE AUTO PARTY P. E. Sands, Representing the Studebaker Corporation. D. F. Bactcheler, Mechanician. Will. I. Curtis, Photographer. John McAmis, Guide. I and he was congratulated on every hand. There was some sixty of Hazelton's most representative citizens present. The [banquet hall was very nicely ! decorated with bunting and flags while tires off the Flanders 20 were hung around the walls and decked with flowers. The menu prepared by the host included all the seasonable delicacies that could possibly be secured, but one of the chief features ig that most of the bill of fare was the produce of Hazelton and the Bulkley and Kispiox valleys. The wine list was perfect and the service was excellent. The toast list while somewhat altered from the original was greatly appreciated and brought forth several very able addresses. Dr. Wrinch was chairman with Mr. Chas. O'Neil was toastmaster. Before the guests were seated the chairman explained the object of the gathering and he extended the congratulations of the town to Mr. Sands and his party upon the success of their trip and requested them to convey to Seattle the best wishes of this community. The doctor felt sure that Seattle would be glad to receive the party back after their trip into a civilized country where everyone was prosperous and where there was lots of room for the investment af millions of dollars. The toast list was as follows: "The King." "The President of the United States." "Our Guests." "Canada." Responded to by Mr. Ellison, provincial government agent. "Omineca District." Responded to by E. H. Hicks Beach and L. L. DeVoin. "Our Mines." Responded to by Mr. Trimble. "The Press." Responded to bv C. H. Sawle, Omineca Herald, and Fred J. Smyth, Inland Colonist. "The Ladies." Responded to by Jas. Riley. Our Quests. Duncan Ross proposed the guests of the evening. In opening he referred to a province in Belgium which would have been a waste land but for the energy of the pioneers. We are here tonight to celebrate the efforts of the party of automobilists who have accomplished the feat of running a car from Seattle to Hazelton. In those men there must have been a great deal of Sand and also Grit that enabled them to handle their car and get such remarkable results as they did. This trip was an epoch making one, like all pioneers Mr. Sands met with ��� redicule and obstacles, but he overcame everything. Mr. Ross referred to several instances where pioneers had been rediculed and great things had almost been killed by that redicule, but owing to great optimism of a few, development of the American continent has Continued on page three THE OMINECA HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1911 The Omineca Herald Printed every Saturday at Hazelton, British Columbia.

A banquet and reception was arranged, but owing to the lateness of the arrival the banquet was postponed until Thursday night. There was, however, a big crowd down town to welcome the travellers when they came in and the spread at the Hazelton the next night was one of the big events of the season. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1911 A Path Was Found The arrival of the Flanders Automobile sent out by the Pacific Highways Association from Seattle several weeks ago to find a path from that city through the Northern Interior of British Columbia to Hazelton marked another epoch in the history of this town and this district. In fact it was one of the greatest events and will do the country more good than has yet been appreciated. It was commonly predicted that the automobile ] would never reach its destination; that the country was too rough j for even horses to go through; that winter would overtake them and many other reasons were given why the journey would never be completed. The party, headed by Mr. P. E. Sands started out and they patiently, courageously and systematically worked their way over the mountains, the valleys, the plains and level roads, cutting and slashing here and climbing and carrying there until they pulled up in front of the Hazelton Hotel on Wednesday night at 9:40 o'clock having completed their journey, and having accomplished where others had failed and what was predicted as the impossible. They had many exciting and hazardous experiences, but they had lots of good luck too, and this, combined with their own energy, pluck, and ability enabled them to overcome many obstacles. One of the most important features, so far as British Columbia is concerned, is the condition of the roads in this province where any attempt has been made by the provincial government to build a road. The men with the automobile are loud in their praise of the B.C. roads, which they state are very much superior to the American roads. The hardest part of the whole trip was over 30 miles of country just 50 miles out of Seattle. In one day they only made four miles, and that is in a country where the population is enormous compared with British Columbia. When they struck the Caribou road they had a long stretch that was almost perfect. Leaving that highway to strike across country where only trails had been cut they had a lot of difficulty, but they made time every day and found travelling much easier than they had anticipated. Then when they struck the government road the other side of Aldermere again they had everything lovely right through to Hazelton. From Morricetown in the road was muddy and they did not make as good time as was expected, but that was not the fault of the road. A message was received here Wednesday morning that the Very Rich Ore There is hardly a day goes by but that something good is reported in the mining circles. The Hazelton district is not only looking good but it has been rapidly proved. There is no longer any doubt that it is the richest silver and lead camp in the province. The properties that are being developed are all high grade and the value of the ore is improving with depth. Mines do not always improve with depth, but when you get one like the Silver Standard that started out with a couple of hundred dollars on the surface and increase to $798 at seventy-five feet it is a proven proposition. Not only are the old mines doing well but several new localities have been uncovered and very rich samples placed on exhibition. With the beginning of transportation on the railway Hazelton will ship out a bunch of ore that will surprise the world. Our Big Vegetables All the strangers in the town have been greatly impressed with the size of the vegetables that are grown in town and in the district. Not only is the size away above the average but the quality and the flavor of the vegetables is also maintained. There is no place where garden stuff does as well as right around Hazelton and in the town. At least one exhibit of Hazelton vegetables will be taken to Vancouver this season and put on exhibition in one of the leading real estate windows. This kind of advertising is the best that the town can get and it would be a good idea if the citizens could get a bunch of stuff together and send it down. CANCELLATION OF RESERVE.

AUTOMOBILE ARRIVE [Continued from page one] proceeded. Thus Mr. Sands is the scout of this country and he will be followed by a big population who will come in and take possession of the land. This is a great country in agriculture, horticulture and mineral wealth. Mr. Sands has made the trip through this country and set an example to the world and to the Provincial Government in good roads making. This is not an orange grove as Mr. Sands has discovered, but it is a country where great men and noble women are bred. It is well worth seeing and well worth developing and Mr. Sands can tell his friends in Seattle and the Pacific Highways Association about the land he has passed through. It has been said that agriculture is the backbone of the country, but wagon and automobile roads are the hubs. He could conceive of nothing that would enchance the development and permanent betterment of the continent than a road connecting Hazelton with the boundry of Mexico. Mr. Sands Reply Mr. P. E. Sands in response to the toast expressed his great pleasure at being present at such a gathering. It was only three weeks before they started that they knew anything about this trip. The Studebaker firm, makers of Flanders 20 are men that do things and when they make a new article they prove it by doir.g something instead of waiting. Mr. Sands said that they tried to get information about the trip but he found discouragement on every hand from the provincial government to the ranchers along the route. Mr. Sands said that he had great difficulty in getting permission from the factory to make the trip. He was bound, how-j ever, that he would do something which would advertise his car and he got the consent of the j makers after he assured them that he would complete the trip, although everyone said it was impossible. All during the trip he sent daily wires to the fac- \ tory, and he never had a reply or : a word of encouragement until i he arrived at his desination. Just before the banquet he received the following message from the head office of the factory at Detroit, Mich. "Heartiest congartulations upon your magnificint achievement. We are proud of you and of our car. Send us detailed statement of the trip and all the available photographs as soon as possible. We will tell all the world about it. You have done well." Mr. Sands said that the above message meant a great deal to Hazelton as his company would certainly give it great publicity through its story of the trip. In speaking of the trip he said that he had received much better treatment on this side of the line than he did in his own country.* Everyone over here gave him as accurate information as they could and helped him along. But the great event was the reception and banquet at Hazelton. It was to him a great surprise, but it was greatly appreciated and was a very fitting ending for the trip. In closing Mr. Sands asked to be given information as to how he would get his car down to Prince Rupert. He was anxious to get home as soon as possible. Besides the speeches several songs were given by local talent which added much to the enjoyment of the evening. The gathering broke up after midnight and everyone voted it the best affair of the kind ever given in Hazelton. Mr. Sands was more than delighted with the reception tendered them upon their arrival here and it would be remembered by j him the rest of his life. Much of the success of the affair was due to the committe in charge and especially to Mr. F. C. McKinnon who has been in touch with the car from the time it left Seattle. He sent several messages to Mr. Sands and the Pacific Highway j Association and he received many in return. He worked un- i ceasingly all the past week to make the reception here a fitting ending for such an important trip. The thanks of the people are especially due to him.

The gold rush in the Ingenica Country some four years ago was recalled to mind on Monday night when Messrs. Peter and Chris. Jensen arrived in town after spending the spring and summer out there prospecting. These two old pioneers and prospectors went into the Ingenica country last March with two Indians and four dog teams loaded with supplies. They remained there all alone and worked hard. They did not see a living soul all the season until they came out and Peter said it was the most lonely time he ever put in and he had been in the Klondyke and Alaska and as far north as any white man Messrs. Jensen spent most of their time and did most of their work on the Ingineca and McCon- nell creeks and went over them pretty thoroughly. They say that there is a big gold body in there some place but as yet they have not located it. They got enough this summer to pay them well enough but they have not located the big property. The Ingenica country is very rough and mountainous and difficult to get through, consequently there are very few go in, and especially since the rush of four years ago. Then it is some 250 miles from here and the trip is pretty hard. On the way out Messrs. Jensen were told that last fall a white man passed down through Babine and proceeded on to Edmonton. He had with him some good coarse gold. This spring he returned and was accompanied by two or three men who had been staying around Graham. They went up north to a country known as yet only to themselves. Whether they have located the main ore body is not known as they would give no information. Messrs. Jensen will spend the winter in Hazelton and most likely they will return to their old stamping ground next spring again.

The gasoline launch Kit-Exchen left on Wednesday morning for Newtown and she was loaded with passengers who were bound for different parts of the continent for the winter months. The season of navigation closed so early, or at least it was feared it had closed, that many were anxious that they would not get down. The owners of the launch were induced to make the trip and they got a boat load of passengers, as well as baggage. They arrived in Kitselas that afternoon and stayed there over night running over to Newtown in the morning in time to catch the train for Prince Rupert. On the return trip they will bring up a cargo of gasoline for their own use. If this trip pans out all right the probability is that another trip will be made at an early date. Passenger Fares: Hazelton to Newtown $11, includiug berth; Newtown to Hazelton $12.50, including berth. The Str. Port Simpson meets the Wednesday train and the Str. Hazelton meets the Saturday train.

He will go back next week for several weeks more and then come out for the winter. They are well pleased with what has already been accomplished and especially when it is considered that the trip is long and hard and is so difficult to get in any supplies. It is only a matter now of getting transportation facilities to enable the company to mine coal and ship it out to the consumers. Omineca Land District���Distriet of Coast. Itange V.

Many of the local merchants are already feeling the growth of New Hazelton and some of them report a rapidly increasing business with that place. For some time now the town has been growing very favorably and there is no doubt but that a lot of business will be done in the new town in spite of the fact that the season was far advanced before a start was made. the largest vehicle manufacturing concern in the world. They are people who do big things and they are the people who will do big things for this country while they are doing big things for themselves. The company has expressed its delight with the trip accomplished by their car and they will tell the whole world all about how their car found the path to Hazelton, B. C, one of the richest mining camps in the | world. At Fraser Lake Mr. Sands met Mr. Jack McAmas who was preparing to return to Hazelton. Mr. McAmas joined the auto party and acted as guide thorugh the rough country and on to Hazelton. He is one of the best fellows I ever met, said Mr. Sands and a large part of the success of our trip was due to his knowledge of the country through which we had to pass. In conclusion Mr. Sands wished to say that so far as he could judge Hazelton was the largest and the most wide-a-wake town through which they passed. When you get transportation here this town will be a wonder and the people here are perfectly justified in their enthusiasm. LIQUOR ACT 1910. Section 35.

This time the Natural Resources Securities Co., Limited of Vancouver, will do the advertising. They have joined hands with the Grand Trunk Pacific and have added to the old townsite of Ellison lots 851 and 852 which lie back of and adjoining Mission Point. Mr. Ryley announced here that Ellison would be the official townsite and that the yards and station would be located there. The land owned by the Natural Resources consists of 1280 acres and it is high and mostly very level and well suited for townsite purposes. The railway runs right through the two sections and with very little expense the Grand Trunk can construct yards that will handle all the freight that will be offered for many years. Mr. J. G. Halleran who was in town a week ago and went out to the Bulkley Valley returned on Wednesday. Mr. Halleran is representing the Natural Resources and he is authority for the statement that these two interests have joined hands to make Ellison a big and important town. The business section of Ellison will be on Lots 851 and 852. the newly added property, as these are by far the most suitable and the most accessable from the railway, the government road and the old town of Hazelton. On these two district lots there is sufficient ground to make an ideal business section, and altogether make one of the most picturesque and homelike towns along the whole Grand Trunk Pacific road. The property is high and looks out over the Skeena and Bulkley rivers and over a great stretch of valley, bench land and mountain. The soil is very fertile and anything can be grown. Connecting the business section of Ellison with the business section of Hazelton the Natural Resources Securities Co., Limited will construct a bridge across the Bulkley River at the point where it was proposed to run the ferry thus connecting up the new government road. This will be a most important feature as it will put Ellison in touch with old Hazelton, Kispiox Valley, the mines of Nine and Four Mile mountains and Glen Mountain. It will also be the main highway to the Ground Hog mountain coal fields, and the new gold country on the Skeena river. Work on this bridge will be started as early next year as possible. Early next spring the streets and lots in the town will be cleared and made readv for people to occupy. The streets will be graded and the roads of the town connected up with the main high- highways built by the government between Ellison and Aider- mere and Ellison and old Hazelton. In fact many thousands of dollars will be spent on the property before the people are asked to change their residence from this town to the new one on the railway. This work will, however, be done in time to permit the business men here being there as ; soon as the railway is up that far and can get their freight up by j rail. The original townsite of Ellison said Mr. Halleran, would no doubt become the residental part of the town, On the upper bench on Lot 699 there is some very nice j property with a splendid view, j and it is of easy access to the proposed business section. The surveyors are busy on the ground and as soon as they have completed their work the Natural Resources will start their campaign to present Ellison lots to the investing public.

Something had to be done as the business is growing so rapidly and it will continue to grow, and it is only a matter of a short time when it will be necessary to have two wires.

No. 22, page 23:- "On the Upper Skeena, about a distance of 50 miles, there are large tracts of land on both sides of the river, wiiich, as far as soil and climatic conditions are concerned, I would consider ideal for successful glowing of fuut as well as for other branches of agriculture. Potatoes, and other garden produce, grow to perfection." Have you confidence cf Merchants on the ground ? Many Lots already purchised by th_> keenest business men of Hazelton (Old Town).

Mr. Dutch-Cline of the Silver : Pick on Nine Mile mountain, came in Thursday afternoon and announced the news that the men i working at the Lead King property had discovered a new lead four feet wide of solid galena. This discovery is of the utmost importance to the working of Lead King mine as it will change the plan of development very materially. When Mr. Jennings was asked about the new lead he said that it had been first located three weeks ago above the shaft that is being sunk but at that time they thought it would join onto the Queen vein. But with further work it was found to be an entirely separate vein and it has been traced down to timber line. The original plans were to crosscut, which meant a great deal of work without any ore. This will enable the owners to drive a tunnel on the vein and the development will be profitable from the beginning. Mr. Jennings says that he believes now that they have got the vein that will carry them to the mother lode. He has always felt that there was a big ore body on Nine Mile mountain and he is now more confident than ever. He left for the property today. ANOTHER BIG DISCOVERY MADE Driftwood Creek coming to the Front Rich Bornite ore brought in Personals. The Driftwood Creek country is now coming to the front and it looks very much like a new camp would develop there. Last week mention was made of a native silver find made at the head of the creek. On this week some were brought in district looking Wednesday of large samples from the same which were very rich bornite, but different PRINCE RUPERT SASH & DOOR C0�� Sash Doors Mouldings Mantels Office Fixtures House and Store Fittings etc. PRINCE RUPERT SASH & DOOR CO.

As soon as the Herald appeared on the streets last Saturday giving the news of the big gold strike made along the Skeena river about j twenty-five miles up from Hazelton, the town experienced quite a little excitement as this was the first that was known of the find. The assays went even higher than what was published, but those published were so good that the mining men and the prospectors took more than a passing interest. In fact had the discovery been reported by men not so well known as Bagg, Austin and Craig then would have been many doubters. There were a great many who would have taken a trip out to the property, but the season is so late and the trip up the mountain to the snow line is so hard that it would be unwise to attempt it. The snow disappears from that hill early in the spring and there will be many go out then. The owners of the eight claims will themselves go out early and start work on the ground and ascertain what they have really got. from other bornite ores found around here. This new stuff is from fourteen claims staked by T. J. Herliby. Harris E. Gilmore and Angus Chisholm. There are just about a mile from Wakefield, Barge and Johnson, s stakings of native silver. The hundred pounds of samples are on exhibition in Harvey and McKinnon's window where they have been attracting a great deal of attention. The boys have a vein ab- ;out eight feet wide and if the stuff runs in values it will be an immense property. Some of the [ best mining men in town state that the ore will carry gold values and the probability is that it will be assayed for gold, silver and copper as there is evidence of all three minerals. There is hardly a day passes now that something new and important is \ not reported. Every day the confidence of the public is raised and there is no longer a doubter to be found in the whole interior. Mr. and Mrs. Martin, who have j been at Mission Point all summer 1 left Wednesday for the south where they will spend the winter. Messrs. Chimento.H.W. Donaldson, H. V. Cook, J. H. Hillerby and S. Stickney were among the passengers who went down on the Kit-exchdn on Wednesdny morning. Mr. Thos. Heslip, of J. Mason Adams Drug store, went to Prince Rupert, Wednesday with the ballot boxes. When he returns he will go to Telkwajto have charge of Mr. Adams branch store there. Mr. F. C, Elliott, of Victoria, arrived in town on Monday night after spending a couple of weeks io the valley and in the hills. He was very favorably impressed with several properties around here and he said that he would be back here in the spring and consider one of the big low grade propositions which he was out looking at on this trip. This was his first time up here and j he says that there is a very I eronious idea on the outside about this camp and that he was going to try and change that as much as possible. He saw enough during his short stay to satisfy himself that this is one of the best mining countries in the province. He is more particularly interested in low grade propositions and he saw several that he liked very much. O. A.
