The Finanâ€" cial News takes up the question of Stadacona Rouyn Mines, recommendâ€" ed by the journal, ‘*Quebec,"‘‘ (apparâ€" ently the official organ of the Agentâ€" (General for the Province of Quebec). The recommendation was made when the Stadacona issue was ""still proâ€" curable at the comparatively low price of around 45 cents a share.‘‘ _ Then the shares tumbled down to 28 cents about the end of March. ‘"*"Attention has been attracted of late,"‘ says The Financial News, ‘‘to the pushing of Canadian securities, and strong cautions have been issued from responsible quarters in Canada counselling British investors to make use of official resources of informaâ€" tion before investing their money. Under_â€" these conditions, it â€"seemed natural to enquire wheÂ¥her or not these laudatory references to the mine in question in an official publication did or did not imply that the venture in question had an official or semiâ€" official recommendation.‘"‘ Following this idea The Financial News wrote to the High Commissioner for Canada, who replied that neither his office nor the Canadian Governâ€" ‘"‘reproductions,"‘ â€" whatever that may mean. Commenting on the reply from the Agentâ€"General, The Finanâ€" cal News says, ‘‘There is not, we venâ€" ture to say, anything in the presentaâ€" tion of the articles in the journal, to show that they are ‘*reâ€" productions‘‘ and not editorial matter. In view of the very high authority which must attach to any sort of official or semiâ€"official statement of prospects in connection with a mine by the provincial Government, we beâ€" lieve that it would be better that it should be made more clear that matter of the sort in question is reproduced, and not given under editorial authorâ€" ity."" ment were responsible forâ€"any ediâ€" torial in the Journal, ‘‘Quebec.‘‘ The reply from the Agentâ€"General for Quebee was to the effect that the articles about Stadacona mines were not of an editorial nature, but simply ‘‘When we first introduced Stadaâ€" cona, we called attention to the fact that this ably managed enterprise, having as its President Mr. C. E. Tascherean, brother of Quebec‘s emiâ€" nent Premier, owned approximately 10,000 acres of the choicest mineralizâ€" ed territory in the Rouyn fields, and that these property groups are so situated as to have distinet possibiliâ€" ties of carrying the extensions of the known ore zones that already had been proved on several of the more important mines and properties in this district. _ The field exploratory work now under way on the Stadaâ€" cona holdings rapidly is proving the correctness of our viewpoint, and like wise is enhanceing the speculative possibilities inherent in this attracâ€" tive issue, which is still procurable at the comparatively dlow price of around 45 eents a share.‘‘ In a letter sent to The Advance, The Financial News says:â€"‘‘It is difficult to see how the Agentâ€"General for Quebec ean repudiate for lus journal, ‘‘Quebec,"‘‘ which is publishâ€" ed from his office, editorial responsiâ€" bility for the puffing of Stadacona shares in its columns. On page 19 in the January issue of ‘‘Quebec,""‘ an article, in the course of which a reâ€" port from the engineer Mr. J. P. Norâ€" rie to the directors is quoted, conâ€" tinues :â€" It may be said by some thoughtless person that all this has happened in connection with Quebec, and so Onâ€" tario need not worry. Unfortunately Ontario will be classed with Quebec in this matter, and all Canadian venâ€" tures will suffer.

SYNDICATE RUNNING FIRE SALE HAS L2X T TIMMINS The ‘Continental Salvage Co., who were in charge of the disposal of the stocks after the fire at Meyers‘, Rinn Bros.‘ and Pieree‘s stores, have wound up their business in Timmins. To The Advance last week, Messrs Breslau, â€" Greenberg _ and Goldstein gcave Timmins great praise as a comâ€" ing city iof importance and as a town that greatly appreciated values. Mr. Breslau, who has had a wide experâ€" ience in selling fire and bankrupt stocks, ciaimed that Timmins was the best town he has met to readily and steadily respond to the values offered. He asked The Advance to express his thanks to the community for the supâ€" port given in making the disposal of the stocks a possibility. It is much easier to be critical than to be correct. A man has paid too much for achieyement if the time employed in arriving at success has robbed him of the opportumtv to enjoy his family.
