But the tables are turned now with a vengeance. The T. N. 0. had only to be shown Where they could assist the prospec: tor for action to be ..taken. As one evidence of the’ genuine interest of the T.' N, 0., it is only necessary to mention the action of the Commis- «sion in making a ruling, that boma fide prospectors could . take all their equipment and supplies (except can nvoe_s)won the same conditions as other baggage. In other words, ‘the pro-; spector’s baggage was kindly held to} include all his Supplies and equip- ment, except his canoe. This was a 'very helpful concession to the prospec- tor and it ., was appreciated as show- ing. that the T. N. O. thought as; much of the prospector as of the com: mercaltraveller, for instance. Every- body Rnows, or ought to know, the debt this country owes to the bonar. ’fide prospector. Without the prospec- tor this North Land’s railways would not be in position to give many eon: cessions, and the future of the coun-, try is equally linked with the goOd work of the prospector now and in; days to come. Certainly, it would look to be good {businesseven to give, the prospectors preferential treat; ment. -’ The party had the fiillest IreaSOn for satisfaction at the promising pro- gress at the Paym‘aster. They found F'the physical conditiOn and develop- im'ent of the property most encourag- iiig and/promising b § thing's. for the production at this me. Then the new 350-ton hilling" plant is prac- 'tically ready to start on; its wOrk of prediiction. The plant is the latest and best in the line of mining equip- ment, and indications are that it will mean a maximum of results with the minimum of costs. It is the inten- tion to start the mill at a rate of 150 tons per day and increase this within the next tw or three months to the full capacity 350 tons per day. The Paymaster is entering its actual production stage under the most favcmrable auspices, and with the careful rand efficient management that ihas' brought it to Ats present satis-j factory condition it is confidently cit-.- pected to go steadily on to the big mine position. - ' a ..

Even when they buy first-class tickets they use the second- class or tourist“ cars usually; There does not seem to be any valid reason Why the prospectors shOuld be refused second-class tickets. On account of looking after their dogs and for other reasons they find the second-class and tourist cars the best. Why should they have to pay first-class rates?

Men returning from the Red Lake area make strenuous. complaint a- gainst the usage given by the Nation- al Railways. There seem to be two chief complaints. One is that the railway absolutely refuses to sell"'the prospectors second-class tickets, and the other“ that the express rates on dogs are extortionate. One prospec; tor Says thatthe express on his dogs fromHearst to Hudson cost him only $1.50, while "$17 .00 was demanded for the return trip to Timmins.
