JULY 19,

YOUNG MEN ON THE FARM.

A more perecnal and more careful in- i

ducts‘ought to characterize the farmers of this agricultaral “province,—particulariy

oung farmers. The thoughts of the

people should be upon their farms and how to make them additionally productive, rather than upon politics —though poiitics are important—or horse racing, or tea parties, though these are occasionally

needed for recreation, or ‘* girls,” or any

such thing; for the farm is the source of livelihood and prosperity. We should like to see all our young men take such a1 ih- terest in their noble profession as was taken by the late Mr. John H. Clarke, of North Wiltshire. Mr. Clark was a young man of perhaps a little more than the ordinary lligeuce. Instead of wasting energies in other directions, he devoted himself to the farm. Hise reading, his thoughts, aad his conversation, as well as his daily work, was in thet direction ; and although he passed away when stilla young man he had already made bis mark asa succtesful agriculturist, and a dis-

his

tinct force for good in the community in which he lived. His example is one to be admired and imitated. He did not scoff at theoretical farming and book learning; and yet he was thoroughly practical. He attempted the fulfilment of no large visionary echeme, but adapted his efforts to his conditions and kept his eyes open for any improvement that might be

effected. While engaged in mixed farm- ing upon established principles he, in

prosperity at home,but reputation through- out this province as well as further abroad. He has proven that plain, com- mon sense methods of operation, joined with enthusiastic devotion to farm work, will result in success,

ITHE YUKON SCANDAL.

—

Aut the liberal talk about the “innoc- ence” of the Yukon officials goes tor noth- ing in the face of the fact that the Liberal majority in Parliament, at the bidding of Sir Wilfrid Laurierand Mr. Sifton, voted against a judicial investigation of the mat- ter But itis persaps worth while to bear in mind some of the facts. We quote the following statement from the Mail and Empire :

“Major Walsh was cent up by Mr. Sif- ton with a party of politicians to govern the Yukon district, he as a commissioner and the politicians in various offices of

emolument. The majortook with him his two brothers and some subordi- nate officials. On the way up

one of the brothers presented an agree- ment to a suboruinate or servant named Carbeno, under which Carbeno was to givethis brother a three-quarter interest iu any gold claime be might take up. Carbeno objected to the agreement, and refused to sign. Therefore he was brought before Major Walsh, and was in- formed by the commissioner that unless he signed he would be sent back by the ship on which they were all travelling. Later on, Carbeno did sign; eo did several other persons, including two Indians named Cullum. Carbeno aud the Cnilums had early information res

on several epecialties ; and won .not only! tley could

Mc. Faweetie, the Gold Commissioner, objected to the pro cedure, aad would not sign the novice as to these permits. Major Walsu :nereupoo said to Mr. Fawcette: “I want you to understand that it is impertinent on your part to quection anything that has been decided 1:0 couneil, and when I seni that notice for you to siga I want you to sigo it.” So Mr. Fawecette eigned, Aa the case stood now miners who had staked claims and made applications were ruled out, *ad before anybody could stake a claim again he bad to geta written permit oa or after July 10, so that nobody could be on the spout before July 11. People were’ waiting avxioutly for July 10 iu Order to get permits to select their claims. But on July 8 Major Walsh sent for the local printer, and as a result of the interview a notice was got onc declaring the creek was to be open for etaking without permits on July 9—the next day. Tais notice was posted on the morning of July 9.

At 10.30 on the night of the 8th, Car~ beno and the other employes of the major who were under contract to give the majors brother a three-fourths interest in any claims tbey might take up were making for Dominion ciezk as rapidly as

It is a pity Mr. Sifton isso much opposed o anepqguiry.

— The Toronto Globe warmly seconds the suggestion that the ealary of the Prime Minisier of Canada be increased and says; ‘‘Whichever side originates the proposition it would bave to receive general support and if done in this way would stand to the credit wod honor of Parliament as a whole.”

—The Mail and Empire remarks that with the royalty on that output the Gov» ernment could have opened a high way in- to the gold fields, and have made Dawaon an important trading city. The gold would haye been largely spent in the pur- chase of Canadian goods carried in stock there, and would have found its way into the branches of Canadian banks establish-

| ed at Dawson, aud from there its equival-

ent in currency would have passed into the general circulatiou. But under this Gov- erument, Canada’s chief benefits flow to- wards the United States.

BANNELL SAWYER, BOL Secretary

W. W MEACHAM M D Kingston Ont 2nd Vice Pres J. B. CLARKSON, Montreal President

Capital: $400,000, divided into 1,600,000 snares of @ par value of 25c each.

Incorporation: Working under the Ontario Com- pany’s Act, non-personal liabilicy.

Treasury: Fund 600,000 sharesfrom the sale of which development fands will be received and expended in placing the mine on a dividend paying basis.

Mime: The miniog Jocation which it is the especial pro vince of thie Company to develop, ie known as the “BiRDAR OF rue Manitov.” It is technically known as the H P 259 loca- tion, and lies in the Raioy Lake Mining District of Ontario.

The Vein : Is 4 feet wide at the surface or wider and the width increases as the shaft is sunk, until ata depth of 45 feet it is about 7 feet across.

Work : In addition to surface prospecting and tracing the vein over the property, a shaft has been sunk to a depth of 45 feet, and a contract has been given to sink 30 feet farther and to drift for 60 feet on the vein. When this ie completed further and permanent developmert will be arranged for.

Mill Test: Eighteen tons of ore from the dump were milled andthe gold: retorted at the “Keewatan Reduction Works” which went $9.60 to the ton. Five hundred pounds from the paystreak was put tbrough, which went so heavy in gold that extra quick eilver had to be put on the plates to catch it all.

Concentrates : These were only partially saved, but we have one thousand pounds on hand which we sampled and had assayed by Professor Donald which showed $153.09 to the ton. If all the Concentrates are as rich as this, the whole cost of operating the mine can be paid from them alone, leav- ing the free milling gold for dividends.

Assays : By Milton Hersey, Eeq.,B.A.Sc., Consult- ing Chemists of the C P R of Montreal, average sample of dump (not knowingly putting in any of the pay streak, which was carefully sacked, as it was extracted from the shaft) went $54.19; also samples from the bottom and sides of the shaft went $72.00 to the ton.

By Professor Donald, M A, Professor of Chemistry Bishop’s College, sample taken from the pay streak, went $1,585.05.

By various persons the following rusults where obtuined: $14, $39.60, $615.

Plan of Operation ; As soon as the work now nn- der contract has been completed,our plan is to erecta two Stamp mill in such @ way that eight more stamps can be ad- ded later oc, when the mine is suffiziently developed to supply ore rapidly enough to keep that number of stamps going night and day.

Output: Would be more than enough to keep the two stamps going, when we would be able to see and prove the value of our mine and we would also receive money steadily from the ore to help pay for development, thus rendering it uo necessrry to sell many Treasury shares and ensbling us to command a better price for them when offered,

Profits: The total cost of mining this ore need nof

exceed $2.50 per ton, and estimating it at $20.00 there would be a yield of $18,000 per month, crushing 30 tons a day.

_ Gola Bricks : We expect to have our first gold brek in Montreal within 6 months from lst Junee

Shares : We are offering 100,000 Treasury shares at 15s, payable + cash, 4 In 60 days and | in 99 days. Those who wish to pay in fall at timeof purchase may do {so and receive theit Script at once;

_ Conclusion: From the results alrealy obtained, #e think we are safe in saying that this is one of the best and most promising investments in sight, and we believe that large promis will be made from such ‘avestment in a very short while.

ENGINEER’S REPORT

Wasuincton, Owr., 28 Deo., 1898

Made by Mr. Haugh D. Alston, of the Neepawa Mine, Ontario, late of London, England.

BANNELL SAWYER, Esq., Montreal, Que. Sir :—In accordance with your request by telegram dated

\ Nepigon, 22nd Dec., I now beg to hand you report on “Si

Mine, better known as “Swede Boys.”

Locations and Means of Commanication— The property contains 67 acres, more or Jess, situated on'the tp per Mavitou Lake, in the Rainy River District of Ontario, tt # distant about sever miles from Denmark at the head of the lake; and about thirty-three miles from Town of Wabigoon, @ statioe on the main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway. At points there are stores where nearly all necessary supplies cad obtained at reasonable cost. Communication is carried on dur ing the winter by horses and eleighs and in summer by steam boats, with the exception of seyen miles over a Government

Shaftand Lode : The chaft ie down 45 feet and tim- bered for about 10 feet and from there down it is atont 6x8 08 ® slight incline partly following the hanging wall.

The vein is exceptionally wel] defined and regular, ad pos a “‘fiseure” vein of a“banded” etructure, it shows the full wid of the shaft—this would make the vein over 7 feet deep.

Mill Sites, Timber, &c, There is a very favoraules mill sight East of the eheft, ov the Lake Shore, and as the ground rises towards the sbaft, ore could be supplied to the mill ty grav* ity tramway at smal! cost.

There is a large quantity of dry timber on the property sufficieat for fuel requirments for some tiine to come’, building logs and mill timbers can be obtained adjacant to the lake.

Recommendation. Considering that this location * so favourably situated for mining and milliag, and, judging frow the character of the vein and quality of ore exposed in the shaft,I am of the opinion that thie location will develope into ® ery valuable mine on a comparatively smal! outlay, and have 8° esitation in recommen ding it as asound investment.

Application for shares should be made to the secretary
