Treasurer‘s Report Shows Expenditures in the North vince has shown a surplus under th Ferguson administration, and the state ment will generally be considered a very satisfactory. People in the North, however, will take especial interest in the fact that the summary of expenditures and reâ€" ceipts seems to fully support the case made, when Mr. W. O. Langdon, preâ€" sident of the Timmins Board of Trade set out to show that Northern Ontario contributed much more to the revenue of the province than was paid back in expenditures in this Mr. Langâ€" don analyzed the revenue of the proâ€" vince to show that around $6,000,000 was received by Ontario in special reâ€" venues from the North Land and that less than $4,500,000 was paid out each year for special North Land purposes. President Langdon urged greater exâ€" penditures in the North, especially for roads. Hon. W. Finlayson, Minister of Lands and Forests, who was present at the meeting of the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade, disputed the figures and findings of Mr. Langâ€" don. Mr. Finlayson claimed that the expenditures in the North totalled about ten millions while the receipts were not much more than half that amount. Mr. Finlayson also said that the reâ€" ceipts from ordinary taxation from the North (gasoline tax, amusement tax, succession duties, etc.) were ‘"negliâ€" gible." The following comparative statement of revenue and expenditures for the fiscal year ended Oct. 3ist, 1928, as presented last week by Hon. Dr. J. D. Monteith, provincial treasurer, would seem to support the case as outlined by Mr. Langdon at Haileybury:â€" Ordinary Revenue "" The annual statement of the finanâ€" cial affairs of the province as issuec last week by the Provincial Treasurer, Hon. J. D. Monteith, shows a surplus of $237,000 for the fiscal year just closâ€" ed. This is the second time the proâ€" Figures by Hon. Dr. Monteith Confirm Case Made Out at Haileybury by President of Timmins Board of Trade in Regard to Expenditures by Ontario Government in Regard to the North. Other Interesting Figures.

When the police raided the premises of David Lalonde at Cobalt the‘y found one case of beer in the house and four other cases in the garage nearby. They charged Lalonde with having liquor in other than his private awelling. Mr. W. A. Gordon, counsel for Lalonde, said that the garage should be conâ€" sidered as part of the private residence and that he thought some judges had so held. The magistrate reserved judgment after hearing the evidence, but when the case came up for decisâ€" ion the accused was fined $100.09 ana costs. The magistrate said that he had decided that a garage fifteen feet away from an accused man‘s house was not part of that house., ‘Those purchasâ€" 10 T uEL o d i.

COPPER ORE AT MINDOKA MINE AT BOSTON CREEK Diamond drilling at the Mindoka Mines property has cut 14 inches of high grade copper ore, says The Norâ€" thern Miner. The ore is almost solid chalcopyrite. This was cut at a depth of 205 feet. A shaft is now being sunk on this particular vein, which on surâ€" face was not quite so wide or rich, and it is now down 55 feet. It is being sunk by hand, to be carried by that method to 125 feet, when it is proposed to install a plant and sink to 500 feet. The most interesting bit of diamond drill intersecting was yet to come, early this week. That would be the cutting of a high grade copper vein, which is about one foot wide on surface. This parallels the other vein, 47 feet to the west. As this second vein has given very massive chalcapyrite surface samâ€" ples, drilling results are looked forward to with interest. The drill will cut it at about 350 feet. Mindoka Mines Limited is in the Boston Creek area, the shaft being sunk on the Hill lot in Pacaud township R. S.
