Mr. Finlayson, Minister of Lands Forests, is being generally recognized as active, energetic and able in the administration of his deâ€" partment. _ His intelligent interest and his shrewd efforts have been of very material advantage to the North. The praise given him last week by a delegation from the Ontario Boards of Trade will be endorsed by all who are keenly concerned with the North Land and its progress. The delegation last week trom the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce waited upon the Ontario Government relative to resolutions passed by the Ontario Associated Boards at their meeting in November. The resolutions had special reference to the departments presided over by Hon. Mr. Finlayson and Hon. G. S. Henry, and both the Minister of Lands and Forests and the Minister of Highways and Public Works came in for commendation. Indeed, the message to Hon. Mr. Finâ€" No Personal Liability Stock Brokers TIMMINS oNnNT. H. C. Garner, Esq., Austin E. Neame, Esq VICEâ€"PRESIDENTS : Timmins, Ont. layson was chiefly along the line of praise for good work accomplished. Special appreciation was expressed for Hon. Mr. Finlayson‘s plans for settlement and development of the North and for reforestation. The Onâ€" tario Associated Boards also urged that municipalities and other organâ€" izations and individnals assist in the successful carryingâ€"out of these plans wherever and whenever possible. In the settlement and _ reforestation plans of Hon. Mr. Finlayson the Asâ€" sociated Boards believed a great forâ€" ward step had been taken that would not only advantage the North, but would also prove of great benefit to the whole province. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Among the resolutions presented by the deputation to Hon. Mr. Henry, M inâ€" ister of Highways and Public Works was one urging every effort for the development of increased tourist tratâ€" fic for the province. With the Ferâ€" guson highway open to the world, this is a matter of more than passing inâ€" terest to the North Land. _ Another resolution presented to Hon. Mr. Henry dealt with the subject of highâ€" way safety. In this resolution, the Government was commended for the campaign for safety on the highways, and the public were urged to support the idea in every practical way. A third resolution urged the Govenment to bring in legislation to make uniâ€" form the placing of traffic signals on highways, and to bring this matter to the attention of its engineers. A fourth suggested that the department should evolve some plan in regard to protection at level erossings throughâ€" out Ontario. Another, dealing with the suggesâ€" tion that the gas tax might beraised, pictured objectional features of such a move. Mr. Henry, when this came up, pointed out that the question had already been dealt with, and gave the tovernment â€" official â€" pronouncement that there would be no increase for CC CE at least this year. Another resoluâ€" tion, having to do with highway safeâ€" ty, suggested that the Government ‘arefully investigated the idea of a system providing for a complusory examination of car brakes and headâ€" lights at various periods of the year, and the issuing of certificates after such tests. The deputation from the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade included : (¢. C. Martin of Hamilton, President of the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce, J. J. Duffus of Peterboro‘, immediâ€" ate and Past President; John Elliott of Belleville, exâ€"president; Thomas Marshall, Secretary; Col. F. P. Heaâ€" ley, Secretary, Hamilton Chamber of Commerce; F. D. Tolehard, Secretary, Toronto Board of Trade ; 8. B. Gundy, exâ€"President Toronto Board of Trade. TWO MORE TOWNS PASS NEW POWER FRANCHISES Power and light franchises were passed last week by two more North Land municipalities,â€"these two hbeâ€" ing New Liskeard and Englehart. The byâ€"law at New Liskeard was apâ€" proved by a vote of 321 in favour and 26 against. _ In Englehart approval of the byâ€"law approached still more closely to being unanimous, being 53 in favour and 1 against. The invesâ€" tigation last year by the Hydro Eleeâ€" trie Commission experts apparently has convinced the people of New Lisâ€" keard and Englehart that the terms of the present franchise are as favourâ€" able as can be expected. Two other towns in the North still have the franchise matters to deal with,â€"these two being Haileybury and Cobalt. Phones 100.101 Mining Engineer of T. N. 0. Reviews Mining in North Two Mines Now on the List of Gold Producers. Mining Industry Very Active in 1927. Effect has been Felt in Railway Earnings. Annual Report of Mr. A. A. Cole to the T. N. 0. Railway Commission. The mining industry has been very active in Northern Ontario and Northâ€" western Quebee throughout the year 1927, and this has been reflected in gross railways earnings. _ Gold proâ€" tion increased more than two million dollars over the 1926 production, and more silver was produced though the value is less, due to a drop in the price of this metal. The annual report of Mr. A. A. Cole, mining engineer of the Temiskaâ€" ming© and Northern Ontario Railway, to the Commission, shows that there was noteworthy activity in this part of the North Land in the mining inâ€" dustry during 1927. Mr. Cole‘s reâ€" port is as follows :â€"â€" Production of gold and silver in Ontario : Gold $30,950,753 _ $33,300,000 Silver $ 5,781,706 $ 5,300,000 $36,723.459 _ $38,600,000 *December estimated. A number of copper properties are being developed but only one has yet reached the productive stage. _ The Noranda Smelter started _ smelting operations early in Decentber and made its first (blister copper from Horne ores on the 12th December, 1027 . The Nipissing Central Railways exâ€" tension, running east from Swastika to Rouyn, Quebec, was completed in November and regular service was inâ€" augurated on the 28th November. The line will be operated by the T. . N. 0. Railway. Between Rouyn and Clheminis station on the interprovinâ€" cial boundary, this line will give acâ€" cess to a jpiece of country holding some promising copper prospects, the most outstanding being the Aldermac in Boischatel township and the Nipâ€" pissing in Montbray township. The James Bay extension was comâ€" pleted to milage 69 north of Cochâ€" rane and a further 30 miles north to the Coral Rapids on the Abitibi river is well under way, to be completed in 1928. ‘This will leave 90 miles of further construction before tideâ€"water is reached. â€" This extension will faciliâ€" tate the exploration of the fire clay, china clay, silica sand, gypsum, ligâ€" nite, peat and any other deposits of the Coastal Plain, and the completion of the line to James Bay will open up a vast area of country adjoining James and Hudson Bay to the prosâ€" pector,. Porcupine. Seven Poreupine mills operated actively during the year while others showed small producâ€" tions. â€" The former were Hollinger, Dome, Melntyre, Vipond, Ankerite, Paymaster and Westâ€"Dome Lake, while the latter were March, Seottish Ontario and Night Hawk Peninsular. The mills erushed 3,500,000 tons of ore producing $23,600,000, being a FOUND GOOD USE FOR OPEN ROAD IN CHRISTMAS WEEK The Northern News last ~ "While the provincial has not, so far, contribut AÂ¥ 4 cost of keeping the high wa traffic between (obalt dnd cost of keeping the highway open Tfor traffic between Cobalt and New Lisâ€" keard, or even as far as Harleybury, it did not hesitate to take advantage of the fact that the road had been opened by private effort when it wanted, durâ€" ing the Christmas rush on the local government liquor store, to replenish the stock of liquor here from the warehouse in Haileybury.‘‘ ANNIVERSARY EUCHRE, BRIDGE AND DANCE, L.O.B.A. Announcement is made of the anâ€" niversary euchre, bridge and dance, under the auspices of the L.0.B.A., No. 742, Schumacher, to be held in the Mcelntyre Recreation hall, on Wednesday, Jan. 18th, 1928. _ There will‘ be good prizes for the cards.

BRILLIANT FUTURE BEFORE CANADA‘s MINING INDUSTRY In concluding an official estimate of Canada‘s mineral production in 1927, the Dominion Bureau of Statisâ€" ties (famed for its hard matterâ€"otâ€" fact style and its utter lack of any tendency to throw bouquets or inâ€" dulge in any cheering or enthusiasm) nevertheless is constrained to append the following paragraph to its facts and figures :â€" ‘©Looking backward over the year just closed, the student must be imnâ€" pressed with the magnificent progress made by the mining industry of the Dominion. Never before has the antlook for the future appeared outlook â€" for brighter.

Of this the Hollinger accounted for 60 per cent while the Melntyre and Dome each added 16 per cent. Kirkland Lake. Progress has been most marked in the Kirkland Lake camp and the tonnages milled have inâ€" creased 50 per cent. during the year. Ten mines produced $9, 10() 000 from 800,000 tons milled, a recovery ot $12.11 per ton. The mines arranged in order of value of production were Lake Shore, Teckâ€"Hughes, Wrightâ€" Hargreaves, Sylvanite, Kirkland Lake Gold, Toughâ€"Oakes Burnside, Barryâ€" Hollinger, Argonaut and Canadian Associated Goldfields. The Sylvanite started up its new mill in May and the Canadian Associated Goldfields in )une. The Cobalt silver camp, including the mines of Cobalt, South Lorrain and Gowganda produ('ed more silver this year tlmn in 1926, but owing to a (hop in the average price of silver for the year ut nearly seven cents from last year‘s price, the value shows a decrease. The companies that produced this silverwere : Cobalt Proper. Nipissing Mining Corporation, O and Cobalt Contact, while small shipments were also mude by LaRose, MeKinley Darâ€" ragh and Foster. South Lorrain. Keeley, Mining Corporation, Lorrain Trout Lake, Caâ€" nadian Lorrain and Wettlauter. Gowganda. Miller Lakeâ€"O‘Brien, Castleâ€"Trethewey and Tonopah. The development on the east side of the Cross Lake, east of the O ‘Brien Mine, on the O ‘Brien and Mining Corâ€" portion properties is being watched with much interest as the indications are most favourable. At South Lorrain production was curtailed and interest lagging, due to the low price of silver, but the findâ€" ing of high grade ore heluw the diaâ€" base sill ‘by "the Mining Corporation on the Crompton property later in the summer, infused the camp with new life. Heretofore all the ore found was on the upper contact of the diaâ€" base. At Gowganda the Miller Lake O°â€" Brien mu'edsed its mill eapacity from 30 to between 60 and 70 tons per day. The starting of the Noranda Smelâ€" ter at the Horne mine in the township of Rouyn in Northwestern Quebec, marks a new era in this district. 1t will likely be found advantageous for copper properties in the (lew]n'nuvnt stage and such properties as the Arâ€" goenaut with copper concentrates Tor sale, to make shipments to this eusâ€" toms smelter. In the Kamiskotia copper area 15 miles northwest of Timmins, developâ€" ment work is still being pushed by Hollinger interests. _ Work is siso proceeding in Munro townshin. * .0 *4 # @ #4 ®@ 4 *4 # 4 ## *# + ¢4 *# « #4 # *4 *# # #4 + #4 #@ # *4 #@ 4 #4 *# 4 *4 *# < *4 * * *4 @ 4# #4 *# La #4 4 QI I. “0 # #4* * #© #*4 #4 *# L3 44 * < 44 *# 4 +6 *# La #* # + #4 *# L *4 * ¢ *4 * # *4 * + #4 *# 4 #4 *# *# #4 # *4 * #+4 *# *# ## * ht ## # h #* * #4 *# * *# W# *# «© #* * h #4 *# bed # # 44 # La *# # # *#* ® # #4 *# hd ## * *# *4 * *# C # *# #* *, PAd Parkersburg (West Virginia) Senâ€" tinel:â€"Friendly nations are the ones that can get together and agree on the kind of weapons they‘ll use the next time they fight. #4# *# # #*4 #@ 4# *#* 4 #4 *# + #4 *# h #*, @ # #4 ®, # *+* *# + #* #* *#, ## # # #4 #Â¥*4 *4 »e MUCH AM I OFFERED ? ~" $175 IN PRIZES First.
