| Ht seems strange that Sir Dick
McBride cannot make up his
mind when to go to the people.
Everybody in the province wants
an election—except McBride and
Bowser, and possibly Wm. Man-

Between townsite stakes, tnin-
eral claim stakes, ‘timber claim
stakes and agricultural land
stakes, a stranger in the district
‘can not find space to pasture a
cayuse over night without tres-
‘passing on private property.
This is due to. the wildeat gov-
lernment and its encouragement
ito. its friends to. wildcat the-re-
gources. Is it not time to turp
the. wildeat politicians out and
start British Columbia off ona
‘course of production? a

Splendid Ore at

more years of work, ="

~ W. §: Harris has been 'in charge
of the work this season, and it is
expected that he will also do the
tunnel work, Three and four
men have been engaged all sum-

ore fur the fourth car ‘all sacked
the surface work will be. discon-
tinued and the underground work
started,

Good trails lead from’ the wage
on. road to the Sunrise, and so
long as the mine is shipping high
grade the ore will be handled by
pack trains which can make their
way to all the workings. After
