The necessity for making the way easy for prospectors and others to get access to these new fields was apâ€" parent to all considering the matter and the attention of the Government was called to the need for clearing the Night Haiwk River. Last week the announcement was made by Hon. Chas. MceCrea, Minister of Lands Porests, that the Government will clean the river of logs, etc., and have it all ready by spring so as to make it easy for prospectors and others to get into Cleaver and MeNeil. Not only will this announcement be greeted with satisfaction, but there is a double satisfaction arising in the matâ€" ter from the fact that Hon. Mr. Meâ€" Crea gave such prompt attention to the matter when it was called to his attention. Very attractive number were issued last week by The North ern News of Cobalt, and The Nugge of North Bay.
