The Miner was established by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. After leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, Houston established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. The Miner was published by The Miner Printing and Publishing Company, and the paper's longest-serving editor was D. J. Beaton. The Miner was published under two variant titles, the Nelson Weekly Miner and the Weekly Miner. In 1902, the paper was sold to F. J.

In the successful t-undidut., Mr. Bostock, we are able lo welcome another personal friend.. Everyone, friends and foes alike, recognizes in our new member a. ni.an of the highest charade., thoroughly earnest in his good intentions, to whom it is \"almost an insult to say that he is placed by fortune beyond the influence of sinister motives. Mr. Bostock has' a clean sheet before him, the tracing of the record upon ic is in his own hands. Scarcely ever has a man had such a good start. Me is lettered by no promises, lie represents a constituency tliat is rapidly becoming Ihe most important in the entire Dominion and is moreover, centreing on itself the eyes of all the world. Its member holds a pioud position, nor is he likely to forget that by his course of action, constituency and representation may be alike honoured by their connection. At the recent meeting in Nelson one of the speakers pointed out, as an ar. giiinent in favor of the Conservative candidate, that it was a good thing for out member to sit on the Government side of the house. Is it far-seeing instinct or blundering good luck that lias brought about this very _ much to be desired result? The position of affairs in South Africa and elsewhere brings the question of the practical working depth of it mine to the front. The celebrated 'banket'' reef of (he Hand is a gravel-cement formation carrying gold, dipping aban angle of about 45 degrees from the horizon. The first series of claims were naturally located along its strike, at the surface. When the extension of the reef was found to be reliable another series of claims was established parallel to the first. Investigation Mcith the diamond drill proving a still further reliable continuation, another series of claims was made with a view to cutting the lead at depths varying from -000 to 5000 feet. On these \"deeps,\" as they are called, the hopes of the investing public now rest. The ore is not of high grade. The cost oi* working, which has been reduced on the Robinson Company's woiks to .$J50 a ton, leaves a bare margin for prolit, and the,.increasing price of labour , makes it doubtful if this low figure will be maintained. In Australia atUeiidigoandBallarat mines are still being worked at a depth of 8000 feet and over and it is found there that the cost is very little in excess of what it is at 700 or 800 feet. Nor is the inconvenience to the men employed any greater. Modern iii ventions combined with care and skii. provide a sufficient ventilatioirat any depth. But again the margin of protii -in these Australian mines is not large. They pay respectable dividends but 'these are not large enough to attract European capital. The investing public requires mines, the ������uccess of which does not depend ��������� on a margin of a .few cents. It can find what it wants in Western Amer- ca, and it is begining to find out ihis fact for itself. The special London Coi respondent of the Engineering and Mining Journal of New York is not likely to be biassed in favor of territory lying'on this side of the International boundary line, and this is what he says. \"As far as America is concerned interest is entirely centred in British Columbia. All the promoting houses are getting to know the value of the mineral deposits of that pro.- vince and are sending men ove. ^to^ acquire properties: Before now thendvice husbeen\"giver, \"put your properties in order.'1 ; A salesman wishing to dispose of his goods sets them forth in such a position, as will display their merits'to the .best advantage. A prospect opened up in a business like manner will sell better than a rich one neglected. This posit ion of affairs paves the way for individuals or associations, not well enough off to buy and work claims for themselves; but to do the development for those not in a position to do it for themselves. This is at once a legitimate and profitable business'aud it is not. surprising to see that already companies are being formed for the purpose. THE BOIL OVER. NOTES. The wreck of the Druininond Castle with a loss of 2-19 lives is one of those terrible disasters which science, training and care are alike unable to prevent. The steamer which is one of the well known Castle Line, belonging to Donald Currie & Co., was on her way home from the Cape and was drawing up towards the English Channel from the Bay of Biscay. The two are separated by the Ushant reef, a dangerous ledge of rocks and islands extending ont from Cape St. Matthieu in the department of Finisterre the nor-westerly corner of France. It is nowhere near Cape Finisterre, which is in Spain, as reported in the Spokane papers. During westerly gales there is a strong inset from the Atlantic into theBay, which throws steamers out of their course to the eastwards and lays them inside the Ushant light instead of outside it. This is what happened to the Drummond Castle and has happened to dozens of good craft before. It is, remarkable that no instrument can be devised to detect this lateral drift, which is the main cause of so many wrecks. WANTED Golfl. Silver. Copper orCoalPrpte.

Every man will.have his own theory* moulded on the lines of the party fo which he belongs. If he is a Conservative it would be useless to urge that the electors were tired of the form of government that has lasted so long; if a Liberal, he would never believe that it was the lesult of a number of chances. The thing is done, the Liberals are in power and a new era has commenced. All we have.to do now is to sit still and wait, watching the result of the change on the fortunes of Kootenay. -' Throughout the election this journal has maintained in attitude of neutrality.\" It would therefore ill become us to make any remarks upon its result here.

The recent strike in the London will probably direct public attention, to what is called the dry ore belt of that section. The London is situated about three miles to the north of Bear Lake, and Ms tin* property of Major Aioeitkerki and T. J. Pi octet*. The Major has worked there foi\" several years almost single handed. Indications of this dry ore belt can be traced from the headwaters ot Wilson Creek, through the north fork of Carpenter. Creek almost across to Kootenay Lake. An extraordinary scene instancing the newness of American life was witnessed the other day in Minneapolis. This city today is one of the mi-ft im' portant and ranks among the large.-1 cities in the States, On the 27..1 May- last, the first house ever built in the country where Minneapolis now stands was hauled through the streets by 7000 school children in shifts of 1000 each. The house was built 47 years ago and ,its builder and his .wife are still alive. It now stands in a special site selected in Minnehaha Park. I The rumor that Colonel Rhodes and ! Barney Barnato are coining to British ' Columbia is probably premature. The ��������� prison doors have hardly closed behind 1 the former and both gentlemen have ! too many interests on the Dark Continent to immediately fly away to the j fair and free lands of the fur west.

The National Matte Smelter. A practical and simple method of matLing sulphide ores, such ns nickel, copper, gold aid ���������iiiver ores. In localities where lead ores and fuels are scarce and almost' unattainable, our pyritic, water jacketed Mullu Smelter has been recognized with highly satisfactory results, nnd has been thoroughly tested on various pyriiic, sulphide and arsenide ores, in en- pnciiy of 2 to 80 tons per day. Il is the most prueticiil, cheapest mid simple-t method of gold and silver ore matting and coii-ciiiraling that is known to-day. It requires no extraordinary skill, no lead ores, no fluxing material, and no fuel of any kind for the smelter after it is started. The sulphur in the ore is its natural fuel only, and its cost has no comparison with any other process of uoncentratinir. We are prepared to furnish any size or rapacity plant complete to substantial mining people, set it up and furnish our men to run il. for them on easy payments.
