No doubt an effort will be made, by its means, to put Mr. Martin out of the House of Commons and to stay the fall of the tottering administration of Premier Farqukareon. But that the honesty and steadfastness of the electors of Belfast wil] render the Liberal tactics vain.

It isto be noted that the Liberals at Ottawa, while about to expend vast sume of money, throughout Canada, without any guarantee or safeguard for ite expenditure to the best advantage, have been careful that Prince Edward Island ehall not, if they can helpit, obtain anything like a fair proportion of the total expenditures ofthe Dominion Government. They re~ fused to move a hand until the Préviacial Legislature had voted a subsidy of $12,000 a year in aid of the Hillsborough Bridge. This subsidy represents,at the rate of interest at whichthe Dominion Govern- ment canat present borrow money, the capital sum of $428,000 ; and it is said

we believe

thatthe estimate of the total cost of the Hi l:borough bridge is bat something over $500,009, or $75,000 more than the Pro- vincial Government has guaranteed ; while Mr. Scheiber’s estimate of the total cost of the railway, apartfrom the bridge, was, in 1895, about $450,000. Sir Wilfrid Lau- rier stated in the course of his reply to the to the mamorial of the Government of this claim of thé Province, in so faras the public works are concerned, would be wiped out by the construction of the Belfast and Murray Harbor Railway. This claim, as set forth by Senator Ferguson and as maintained by the Provincia) Government, amounts to upwards of $2,000,000 ;—and the Liberals propose to settle it by the expenditure of $75,000 on the bridge and $450,000 on the railway, or $525,000 in al!!

OFFICERS JOHN TORRANCE, Jr Moncreal President W.W MEACHAM MD Kingston Ont 2nd Vice Pres WILLIAM MUORE, London, Eng. Ist Vice Pres. | J. B. CLARKSON, Montreal President BANNELL SAWYER, B C L Secretary

Capital: $400,000, divided into 1,600,000 susres of @ | Gold Bricks : We expect to have our first gold br’ par value of 25c each. ‘0 Montreal within 6 months from Ist Junes

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

Treasury: Fund 600,000 shares from the sale of which development funds will be received and expended in placing the mine on a dividend paying basie.

Shares : We are offering 100,000 Treasury shares as 15) payable 4 cash, } In 60 davs and } in 99 days. Those who witht to pay in full attimeof purchase may do {so and receive script at once,

_ Conclusion: From tbe results alrealy obtained, taink we are safe in saying that this is one of the best aud ux promising investments in sight, and we believe that large prot! will be made from such investment in a very short while.

Mine: The miniog location which it is the special pro vince of thie Company to develop, is known as the “SIRDAR OF tHe Manirov.” It is technically known as the H P 259 loca- tion, and lies in the Rainy Lake Mining District of Ontario.

The Vein : Is 4 feet wide at the surface or wider and

the width increases as the shaft is eunk, 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 bas been sunk to a depth of 45 feet, and a contract has been given to sink 30 feet farther and to drift for 69 feet on the vein. When this is completed further and permanent development will be arranged for.

ENGINEER'S REPORT

Wasurcton, Onr., 28 Dec., 18m

Mill fest: 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 through, which went so heavy in geld that extra quick eilver bad to be put on the plates to catch it all.

Concentrates : These were only partially saved, but we bave 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 Mi:ton 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, whicb 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 trom the pay streak, went $1,585.05.

BANNELL SAWYER, Esq., Montreal, Que.

_ Sir:—In accordance with your request by telegram hess Nepigoa, 22nd Dec., Inow beg to band you report on “*Sirds Mine, better known as *‘Swede Boys.”

1

Locations and Means of Commnnicatio® The property contains 67 acres, more or lest, situated on the sf per Manitou Lake, in the Rainy River District of Ontario, # distant about sever miles from Denmark at the head of the and about thirty-three miles from Town of Wabigoon, § on the main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Ai points there are stores where nearly al! neceseary supplies cae obtained at reasonable cost. Communication is carried 08 ing the winter by horses and sleighs and in summer by = boats, with she exception of seyen miles over @ Governmest

Shaft and Lode : The shaft is down 45 feet and # bered for about 10 feet and from there down it is atout 6x8 08 slight incline partly following the hanging wall.

‘<

The vein is exceptionally well defined and regular, and i a “fiseure” vein of a“banded” structure, it shows the full ¥ of the shaft—this would make the vein over 7 feet deep,

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

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

_ @utput: Would be more than enough to keep the two stamps going, wheu we would be able to see and prove the value of our mine and we would also receive money ste: dily from the ore to help pay for development, thus rendering it wm necessrry to sell many Treasury shares and enabling us to command a better price for them when offered.

1

Mill Sites, Timber, &c, There is avery far mill sight East of the shaft, ov the Lake Shore, and as the gre rises towards the sbaft, ore could be supplied to the mill by # ity tramway at small cost.

There is a large quantity of dry timber on the fp did 4 2nfficient for fuel requirments for some tine to come; ® : logs ani mill timbers can be obtained adjacent to the lake. ,

Becommendation. Consideriog that this loostioe & «o favourably situated for mining and milliag, and, judging +** the character of the vein and quality of ore exposed shaft,I am of the opinion that this Jocation will devel io ery valuable mine on a comparatively smal! outlay, #9 have esitation in recommending it as a sound investment.

Profits : The total cost of mining this ore need not 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.

Application for shares shou d be made to the secretary
