In this province, and & particularly in the New Hazelton] § Help Lead district, such legislation is of the | § utmost importance to. the mining interests and to the general devel- and Zinc Mining opment of the district and prov-|- ince. Lead mining has been greatly advanced by the Lead Bounty Act; and as zine is so closely allied with that mineral in this part of the prov- ince the two go hand in hand. With a fixed policy upon the part of the Dominion Government, as- suring continued encouragement to the. lead and zine miners, would have the greatest effect upon this whole province, and particularly in the New Hazelton district, where there are many very large deposits of those two metals. The recom-. mendations of the British Columbia Mining Asso- ciation is deserving of immediate. and serious ‘consideration ; on the part of the Dominion Gov- ernment. ~ ee a .
