See Hand \"Bills for Prices. MORRISON MINE. J. I. Feeney, an old timer in the Boundary district,-returned here this week after more than a year's absence and was warmly welcomed by his numerous friends. Mr. Feeney, as will be remembered, formerly. held the position of engineer at the Jewel mine, Long lake. After leaving here at the end of 1903 Mr. Feeney spent several months in Portland and Seattle before starting for Alaska. His experiences in the north proved very interesting He was engaged for three months at placer mining on the bench diggings at Takataga, several hundred miles below Nome. There were three hundred men in the camp. Although no claims were recorded, an unwritten law prevailed. Men worked alongside one another on the beach, but each miner enjoyed the reward of his individual efforts. Storms were frequent, greatly interfering with operations, and'varying.the average of thedaily clean-up. The diggings were not considered rich', most miners only being able to earn fair wages. Mr. Feeney made the SOO. mile trip down the coast to Juneau with,several companions in an open boat and experienced a good many hardships. Frequent stops were made but it was found impossible to prospect successfully owing to the glaciers which literally blocked an entrance to the mainland. Here .and there some fair looking quartz was discovered but none ot the specimens ran high. Mr. Feeney having concluded that he had quit the best mining district in'the world to engage in a wild-goose chase determined to return. He now realizes better than ever before the vast mineral wealth of this 'district and will take his chances here. Altogether he regards his trip as invaluable because he ,now_feels_cot:itj-mt_tp^tey withhis various local mining propositions. ' It Has Been Finally Acquired ly tbe Montreal and Boston. The Montreal and Boston Consolidated Copper Co. has: finally acquired the Morrison mine, the well known Deadwood camp property. Greenwood shareholders in the latter company have received from F. H Oliver, manager, the following circular letter bearing date of the 14th inst: i'-In February, 1904, we entered into an agreement with Andrew Laidlaw and through him with the Montreal & Boston Consolidated Mining & Smelting Company . to exchange shares of the Morrison Mines, Limited, for shares in the Montreal & Boston company at the rate of thirty shares of Morrison for one of Montreal & Boston stock. The stock should have been issued to us August 18,1904-.' We were held off with one excuse and then another until finally they refused absolutely to carry out the deal; they claiming a misrepresentation of the Morrison mine and we claiming an absolute sale. \"I left for New York on November 27. but the deal was not consummated until the 3rd day of January, and then with the understanding that the stock be pooled until the 12th day of June, 1905. This no doubt will be disappointing to a great number of the shareholders who have waited long and patiently for their stock, but it was either this or a law suit, and the exchange was made, subject to the pool, upon the advice of our attorney in New York city, Mr. Andrew Burleigh. For us to have brought suit and followed the case through the court would have taken two or three years and several .thousand dollars, and, under the present financial condition of our company, this would have been piactically impossible, as we would have been obliged to .assess at least two cents' per \"share:'\"' Wev are satisfied that the settlement made was to the best interest of a.11 the stockholders. The Montreal & Boston stock that is due the Morrison stockholders is now held by the Spokane & Eastern Trust company of Spokane, with instructions to them to turn the stock over to us on the 12th day of June. \"In conclusion will sav tha.t we believe the Montreal & Boston company hare Valuable assets, and their mines and smelter, with good management, ���will make a success of the undertaking.\" ALL EYES ON THE BAY Rich Proposition Centre of Public Interest.

Those present were Aid. Caulfield, Bunting, Mcintosh, McNeil and Parker. On motion of Aid; Parker it was decided to continue the monthly allowance of S15 to the public reading room. The council guaranteed Mr. Archibald $30 for the keep the McKague children for one month. The board of health was instructed to interview the Sisters' hospital respecting the maintenance of city patients. The following accounts were paid: Electric Light Co., $114.25; E. G. Warren, $4;.B.C. Gazette, $2.50. The fire and light committee was instructed to report on cost of repairing roof of tne city hall. Various committees submitted reports. BONDED SMILAX GROUP. Geo Findlay and Donald McGlashan of this city have just acquired from A. E. Ashcroft, C. E., a working bond on a half interest in the Billy and Smilax fractions, Skylark camp. The other interest is held by I. H. Hallett. Development work is to be started next week. The group contains very \"likely\" ground and will be thoroughly prospected. It is surrounded by such well known claims as the Skylark, Meadowlark, Mavis, (Bay, and Silver Cloud. The Smilax group consists of 79 acres. It has already been demonstrated that the Silver Cloud lead runs into the Smilax claim. Eagles Will Give Annual Ball on St- Valentine's Day. Greenwood Aerie, Fraternal Order of Eagles, will give its first annual ball in Masonic hall on St. Valetine's day, Feb. 14th next. Great preparations are being made for the affair as the members are determined to make it the social event of the season. The reception committee is composed of E. J. Cartier, Dr. Spankie, Dr. Foster, Jas. McCreath, Phil McDonald, R. C. G. White and Fred B. Holmes. These gentlemen will comprise the floor managers, namely, Thos. Hansen, Milt. Dressor, Rock Creek; Alex Bloomfield, Geo. Lord, Midway; Daniel Guy, Boundary Falls; C. F. Galliher, Eholt; L. W. Bailey, Geo. Evans, Mother Lode mine; Jas. Marshal, D. Dean, Phoenix; J. Feeney, W. R. Madill, W. J. Simpson, Geo. Wellwood, E- W. Bishop, A. Sater. S. Grierson, J. W. Nelson, D. Donnelly, Andrew Ingails, G. Thompson and H. B. Madden. J. H. Ready will act as prompter. Music will be furnished by J. Bush's orchestra. A large attendance of Eagles from points in the district is expected. Public interest is now centered on the Bay mine, the Skylark camp proposition, whose richness seems- unquestionably to be increasing with depth. It is little more than a year ago since Fred K. Hall acquired an interest and started development work. For months he labored alone, his steadfast faith realizing him a rich reward. At the outset a tunnel was run 30 feet in pay ore. From the face an incline shaft sunk on a lead extends to a depth of forty feet. In places the vein is five feet between walls. In this working a blind .and intersecting lead containing much higher values was encountered and it is upon1 this new discovery that work has been concentrated for several months past. From the floor of the tunnel a.shaft has been sunk on the new vein to a distance of nearly fifty feet and an upraise was made to the surface to provide better ventilation. This working is unusually .large, being 4x9 feet.- All the way down free gold, which are the least part of the values, was encountered. Specimens fairly glistening with the yellow metal are in great demand and in this way-ore valued at hundreds of dollars has been given away! The rich vein varies from fourteen to twenty-four inches in width. The quartz occurs between greenstone and metamorphosed granite formations and is composed of quartz and iron pyrites. Large values are contained in tellurides, which are plainly visible. The ore contains fractional values in silver. Last June '20 sacks of ore treated at the Trail smelter averaged $97 per ton. The last shipment of 19 tons smelted at _the local reduction works last October gave ��� a gross return of $1213.90 or $71.76 per ton. H. V. Fuller, the well known mining c.perator.-acquired a-half inter__ est. in the Bay last summer and is now the co-owner with Mr. Hall. Three shifts are now employed at the mine, and forty tons onthe dump, averaging $140 per ton,are being hauled to Greenwood for shipment to the Trail smelter. The Bay lead is so strong and well defined that practical mining men have been unanimous in expressing the belief that the fissure Vein will descend to great depth and that the tendency of the ore will be to improve as depth is attained.

There is no doubt about its being the best. No other will cure a cold so quickly. No other is so sure a preventative of pneumonia. No other is so pleasant and safe to take. These are good reasons why it should be preferred to any other. The fact is that few people are satisfied with any other after having once used this remedy. For sale by all druggists.

However, it is the intention of. the association to remain ih a highly effective state of organization and to exercise every possible influence for redress- by a campaign with individual members of the legislature. Unfortunately the two'per cent, tax does not come within the scope of the commission.recently engag*ed in taking evidence respecting the Assessment Act. The Nelson branch of the association is justly in- that the commission should have allowed * silver-lead mining operators to give expert evidence in favor of the tax;' thus creating an erroneous impression throughout the country.. The Nelson branch of the association has adopted a resolution suggesting a reined}\"- aiid asking permission to lay its views before'the commission. J. J. Campbell/ of the Hall Mines smelter, hit the nail on the head when he declared that the tax bears inequitably upon mines working under certain conditions and with special hardship upon miues working on a small margin of profit, unlike the silver-lead propositions which are aided by the government bounty.. Mr. Campbell was instrumental in securing the passage of a resolution recommending that the tax be modified in such a manner that the actual wages paid as shown by the payroll, as, well as the cost of freight and treatment sliould be deducted from the gross value, aud agreeing to au increase in the percentage of the tax if the alternative plan fails to provide sufficient revenue. In the face of these representations, which embody the views of the people\" of the Boundary district, the government will indeed be hastening its doom if it contiunes to disregard the imperative needs of the mining industry. bears.7 high testimony to the Value.Xand effectiveness of the energetic and highly; organized work of the European agents of the, Dominion government. It is pointed out that the southern states form a region where the need of immigration of the right sort is vital and pressing and where 'the ^natural -inducements ���for imnlignints are unsurpassed. Farther ou Mr. Sargent characterizes ;the Canadian policy as \"active' , and aggressive,\" and suggests its adoption, in order to create a new South freed of the moral heritage of slavery days. If the United States succeeds in its task- of improving its immigration work the result will be due to-the example set by progressive Canada. Pbk Yeak 2 00 Six Months _ 1 2S To Foreign Countries _ 2 SO FRIDAY JANUARY 27 WOS The McBride government- has been guilty of many derelictions of duty that have long since alienated every claim for public support. One of its most flagrant oversights is the studious manner in which the interests of the mining industry are being ignored. A storm of protest from all parts of tbe province against the iniquitous two per cent mineral tax is gaining momentum daily and threatens the very existence of the government. Realizing the utter hopelessness of securing their rights from the executive an effort will be made to conduct a campaign of education among the members of the legislature. John Keen,' president of the Provincial Mining Association, has recently described the situation very graphically. Asked if he intended to' call a convention of the''association.this year to again set forth the, inimical conditions from \"which the mining industry of British Columbia is suffering by reason of injudicious and ill- WATCHES C LOCKS JEWELRY Watch Repairing a Specialty t_��r*Remember a guarantee is given with all our work. JEWELLERS GREENWOOD. A high tribute to the superior ty of the immigration'policy of the Dominion, government is con-i tained.in the annual report of the Immigration Commissioners ' of the United States. : At the. outset Mr. Sargent shows that a very large undesirable class of immigrants seeks the United States, not less than 8,000 having been sent back last year. Commenting on the situation he writes : \"It.is interesting, and it ought to be instructive, to compare the character and motives of the agents who are thus actively promoting emigration to the United States, with a special class of agents in Europe who are inducing people there to emigrate t_ Canada. The steamship agents who are promoting emigration to our ports are working for commissions and profits solely, without the slightest reference to our immigration laws and po'icy, save in so far asthey constitute obstacles to be cheated and evaded. Canadian emigration agents abroad on 'the other hand, are government agents, working to secure desirable settlers for their coun*ry They are stationed in countries where such -'settlers are most likely to be found. Their object is to recruit Canada's population from the best sources, and to turn to the Dominion's ports df entry a class of thrifty and enterprising men who will go into the new regions and develop them. In a word, they are workirg for the good of the country, and they are meeting with success.\" It will be seen that this official The threatened storm iu Russia has burst and the streets of the capital have been drenched with innocent blood.- Just what the end.will.be nobody can foresee. It is, however, reasonable to suppose that good will result. Every liberal- and progressive mind must sympathize with the cause of reform. If a revolution should succeed iu Russia ' in the near future the effects upon Russia and. upon the surrounding countries of Europe and Asia would be far-reaching. History repeats itself. After the French revolution with its excesses, the autocratic rule of Napoleon, then a re-action followed b3\"- the working of'the leaven, which moulded ���political ideas anew and broadened the pathway tb liberty. The overthrow of the autocracy in Russia ��� would probably bring many evil consequences in its train. Unfortunately tbe mass of the population are benighted and ignorant, living in a state analagous to the condition of other-nations two hundred years ago.\" Peoples like individuals are .subject, to a law. of orderly growth, and the element of time cannot be jumped without the dangerof inviting a second Reign of Terror. All depends upon the spirit of the new leaders. Russia has evolved a host of revolutionary theorists and anarchists, who could hardl}* be regarded as safe nation-builders. Civil war might ensue after the autocracy had been overthrown. There would be the inevitable conflict between the extremists and moderates. If the army should take the popular sid^aihilitaryllictatbi-shipwould\" b*e a likely possibility during the transitional stage. At all events the feeble torch .of liber ty now burns brighter and in the fulness of- time the Russians will enjoy the representative institutions of self-government. \\ CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF** CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF** CF* CF* ��� ���. ank of Capital, all paid up; $14,000,000.

The Skylark mine will employ 20 men \"after February 1st., The last carload shipment of third class ore, treated .at.the Granby smelter, averaged $32.80 per ton. . \"Work has been, completed on the 100 foot winze-from-the 300 to the 400 foot level of the Old Ironsides mine, but owing to shortage of power no further work is beingdone there at present. The metallic output of the Granby smelter last. year is estimated at $3,421,784 made up as follows: Gold, 50,694 ounces, $1,013,880; silver, 217,472 ounces, $128,949; copper, 17,843,399 lbs. $2,283,955 Repairs to the Rawhide tram are nearly completed.

Twelve men are employed in three different working1.. A four foot ledge that is being drifted on is giving-surprisingly high values. In point of tonnage the Last Chance is the largest shipper in the high grade belt. , The Bay mine is shipping to the Trail smelter. There are 40 tons in the ore house. As the ore contains much' free gold a great demand for specimens exists. So many high grade specimens were being looted from the car now loading in the yards that orders were given to keep the door locked. ' Pat Dermody, the superintendent of the Providence mine, is being warmly congratulated over tbe recent increase in the ore reserves as a result of development work carried on under his direction. The lead, it seems, was thought to have been cut off by a dyke in the south drifts on the 200 and 300 foot levels. A cross-cut through the dyke resulted in the. discovery of the vein larger and richer than ever on the other side of the dyke.
