Matachewan Area Continues Lively The Mosso Findâ€"Enquires as t: the source of Jack Mosso's gold sam- ples bring conflicting stories. One says they came from a loose block on his claims at Austen Lake. others say they came from Midlothian, Zavitz and Beardmore. ' A recent visitor to Mosso's claims say one isolated large block of quartz had been broken into hundreds of pieces and his guess is somebody found the gold there. .

Old ones have been cleared out and new ones cut. The Argyle townsite crowd have been particularly active in this respect. The Forestry Department men have been busy with axe and saw.

Matachewan presents a lot of rough country to the prospector because of the'millions of fallen trees. It is na- turally an easy area for walking acr- at Argyle last week and since his visit there has been a revival of in- terest in Argyle townsite. Negotiations with the Booth interests and with the Ontario Government are said to be moving satisfactorily and a conference to be held this week is expected to result in emission to clear the townste.

The professor is a few leagues astray To the information in the above from the despatches from Noranda. it may be added that Ontario has been reported for some time as ready to start work on its section of the road to connect Rouyn and Kirkland Lake min- ing camps. Ontario felt it should have some definite word from Quebec. One Kirkland Lake man in a letter to the newspapers suggested that Ontario build to the boundary and leave Que- bec to do as it liked. This, of course, would not be sensible, for though some Quebec officials talked very strongly on the idea of building the proposed road. nothing definite could be secured in any official way. Now that Quebec has actually started it may safely be ex- pected that Ontario will not lag behind in the good work. While Quebec re- cently had to make a survey of the proposed road in the province of Que- bec. the province of Ontario had a complete survey all ready in regard to the portion of the proposed road in this province. toss and this is apparent when tralls are cleared out. It will not be very difficult to build roads here when they are needed. “'ORK STARTED 0N ROAD FROM NORANDA TO KIRKLAND LAKE .Despatches last week from Noranda give the interesting information that construction work on the Quebec sec- tion of the interprovincial highway, linking Noranda and Rouyn with Kirk- land Lake. Ont., has commenced. The task of clearing the right-of-way sur- veyed last month was begun on Thurs- day last week by some 50 men with teams of horses. The work is being done by Quebec on account of the attitude of Ontario Government omcials. who required a guarantee by this province before they would start work on the Ontario sec-i tion of the highway, according to J. E! Fiche. Liberal M.L.A. for Temiskaming, who arrived at Noranda Thursday. The order launching work was signed by. Ben. J. E. Perrault, Minister of High-l ways. Surveys of the Senneterre-Maniwaki road, linking up Quebec City with a section of highway north of Noranda commenced last week, said Mr. Piche. Construction of about 20 miles of road in Ontario. east of Cochrane, would link this section with the Cochrane- Hearst highway. which may figure~as part of the trans-Canada highway route. said Mr. Piche. ~ Phone 748 Schumacher Hardware 8: Furniture Co.

Not on your life. Since when did gold “belong to the people"? Gold belongs, in Canada, to the man who can find it. So does silver, lead, zinc, nickel, platinum or any other metal. So does oil, clayâ€" and even farm lands. Even in' Ontario. where there is a long history of mining development, there are people whose minds work queerly when they think of mineral deposits. They take the illogical atti- tude. that mineral wealth is in some special manner earmarked for common distribution. The assets of their own business, their own lands or other form of wealth are distinctly sacred but the mineral deposits “belong to the peo- ple.” Any man can go and look for his share of them. The government will help him, at that. Does Not Think That the Gold Belongs to Public (From The Northern Miner) A pretty little teapot tempest has arisen in Saskatchewan. following the announcement of the intention of the government to assist a gold mining project by building a road to it. The United Farmers of Canada (Saskata- chewan section) have entered a strong- ly worded protest against such a pro- cedure. The wording of it makes one wonder just how far the dissemination of bolshevistic ideas has progressed in the west. The reported memorandum of the farmers to the government, af- ter castigating Premier Anderson for not fully acceding to their recently published 21-article demand. winds up with the following: “This is yet another instance of the government not only allowing buteven assisting private capital to filch the natural resources of the province from the people to whom they belong." The complaint refers directly to “gold that belongs to the people." The greatest natural resource of Saskatchewan is its farm lands. It be- lcngs to the people? In what sense? In the same sense that a mine belongs to the man or the company that finds and develops it. The United Farmers might protest if their land holdings were bulked in the way they would group mineral deposits or water falls or forests. Natural resources has evi- dently two meaning in Saskatchewan. The farmer who files for land, home- steads it, plows and crops it is in exactâ€" ly the same position as a prospector who hits the bush, looks for mineral finds and works it. If the government is justified in putting in roads for set- tlers there can be no logical reason for refusing to provide a mining de- velopment with transportation facili- ties.

Schumacher The Nonhern News last week says:â€" "Several cases heard before local justices of the peace and sent to the District of Abitibi police court at Amos during the spring and early summer months were heard there last week by Magistrate H. R. Fiset, Rim- ouski, previous to his visit to the 10- cal camp. Two acquittals were regis- tered, Mrs. E. S. “Minnie” Demers, Rouyn, being cleared of a liquor charge, and Vigilo S. Bergeron, also of Rouyn being acquitted on a charge of a serious offense against a charge of a serious offence against a tenced to district jail for one month on a liquor selling charge in June, was convicted to stand trial at the fall assizes on a charge of perjury arising out of the local case. Mrs. Rycks positively asserted. in Rouyn tha; she had never lived in Timmins, Ont., nor had not been convicted of selling liquor there.
