A man recently returning from Red Lake camp says that there may be some question as to the general richâ€" ness of the area, but there can not be any doubt about the particular section where the Howey claims are located. ‘"*If there is not gold there, and rich gold, and lots of it,""‘ says this prospector, ‘‘then all signs fail, and I‘m a Dutchman.‘* This man is a Canadian and believes in signs, so far as mining is concerned. He says he has seen the ore on the Howey, and it is good. He points out that seores of others have had the privilege of examining the Howey, and it remains vet for any one of these prospectors to suggest that the Howey has not the goods. ‘‘Give the camp a chance to prove up. Don‘t overpraise it. But don‘t knock. Don‘t talk without knowing. That will keep most people quiet,"‘ says this oldâ€"timer. Nothing, will keep some quiet, so a great deal of talk may be expected all the time in regard to Red Lake. Some of it will be pessimistic and some optimistic, like the foilowing, for instancee, from The Toronto Mail and Empire last week:â€"‘* According to information received by the Conâ€" tinental Bond Corporation last night, free gold has been discovered on the Howey Red Lake claims, as a result of diamond drilling operations at the 500â€"foot level. Added weight, it is said, is given to the report by the fact that on the Toronto Stock Exchange vesterday afternoon the value of Howey Red Lake units.was quoted at a new high of $325 per uflit, as comâ€" pared with The previous elosing bids of $270 to $275 per unit. Et was thought the sudden gain by Howey Red Lake, which on the unlisted marketâ€"climbed to $330 bid with none offered. showed in some way the news of the reported strike had reached Toâ€" ronto in the afternoon. About ten days ago the digamond drilling at Howey Lake was only down about 50 feet.‘‘ GOOD REPORTS COMING FROM HOWEY RED LAKE As soon as Messrs Brooks and Macâ€" Neill reached town last week they secured the coâ€"operation of Mayor .

VETERANS OF LATE WAR WORK FOR AMALGAMATION in the near future. Mr. Brooks is a wellâ€"known returnâ€" ed man and has been active for years in veteran organizations and has given very valuable services in orgaâ€" nization work.
