The increased motor travel would greatly augment the gas tax reâ€" ceipts, furnishing an immediate reâ€" turn on the highway investment. New mines mean new communities and new sources of provincial revenues, for mmnev fows freely in new mining mme camp "The new Long Lacâ€"Sturgeon mining field has already gi‘en Canada more actual new gold mine prospects than any other field in the same length of time. Literally dozens of holdings seem to offer promise of sustaining mines that will produce gold; many of them are already at the stage of erecting mills. others are rapidly following the pioneer mills So it is logical that there is now word from Long Lac that the provincial government is promisâ€" ing to construct a highway from Jelliâ€" coe to Sturgeon River. wWith that start, the road could later be extended east to Geraldton and west to Beardâ€" more. That is exactly what has been proposed by the Nakina Board of Trade as part of the national highway route, and much favoured in Hearst and Kaâ€" puskasing in preference to some allegâ€" ed compromise routes. To carry the highway straight west to Nakina, then down to Long Lac, over to Beardmore and down to Nipigon to connect with already canstmucted highwiy; would make a very marked contribution to deâ€" velspment of tourist traffic and new mines. "There is no saying when the great area lying north of the C.N.R. line from Cochrane to Winnipeg will come into the mining picture. The geolcgy of the region is considered so favourâ€" able by the federal Department of Mines that several of the prospecting parties being sent out this summer unâ€" der Hon. W. A. Gordon‘s plan will deâ€" their activities to parts of it. One such area is that between Hearst and Kapuskasing in the clay belt, ranging both north and south of the railway track. Others farther west will be combed over. "There is nothing whatever between Schreiber and White River, where a further stretch of contract highway work has now been approved. ‘The North should spurn all suggestion that it be connected up with White River, as a compromise, and stick to the far better contention that our highway contact with Fort William must proâ€" ceed by Long La aC way of Hearst, Nakina and itures including Dualâ€"automatic control (an "cookâ€"book" way without attention); new ‘r, more efficient and practically indestructâ€" its array of smart modern features you‘ve sartment; Thrift Cooker; Utility Drawer.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Last week The New Liskeard Speaker had some plain speaking in reference to the transâ€"Canada highway and the improper and impractical route apparâ€" ently to be forced on the country for the advantage of contractors and othâ€" ers. The Speaker also reproduces ediâ€" torial references from other newsâ€" papers on the matter. Very evidently The Speaker considers this one of the most important questions of the day, and The Advance believes that this is the fact and that governments will find this out to their sorrow. It is not so easy to flimâ€"flam the people of the North on a question they have studied. More Strong Words on the Transâ€"Canada But Not More So Than the Opinion in the North on the Contractors and Poliâ€" ticians. played in the centre column of the front page The Speaker publishes ‘In i)utting over the Nipigonâ€"Schreiâ€" berâ€"White River highway geal, are Dr. Manion angq Peter Heenan, Northwesâ€" tern Ontario representatives, making themselves safe in their own constituâ€" encies at the expense of the rest of Ontario? Is Ontario going to sit down while these politicians mortgage the credit of the province on the building of a transâ€"Canada highway through the Schreiberâ€"White River wild and woolly waste lands? With a splendid motor road south of Lake Superior, isn‘t it bunk to use a North Superior highway for pleasure jaunts, during the few months available, in sufficient numbers to pay even a portion of the interest on the tremendous sum reâ€" quired? With promising mining, timber and agricultural possibilities farther north, are the Federal and Ontario Governmnts justified in this absurd Nipigonâ€"Schreiberâ€"White _ River road work? What is behind the scenes that will induce Cabinet Ministers and members to sit quietly in their places while such a deal is being put over the people whose trust they are ignoring? How long is Ontario going to allow the exâ€"engineer and the exâ€"doctor from Kenora and Fort William to rule the destinies of all Northern Ontario for their own political benefit (and we must not forget the contractors) at the expense of the province?" "The announcement was made last week that the Hon. Peter Heenan had succeeded in at last securing Federal Government consent to the routing of the Transâ€"Canada Highway from Schreiber to White River, one of the most forsaken pieces of country to be found any place on the continent, at a cost alleged to be two or three millions more than a more northern routing would cost. Reports from Ottawa inâ€" timate that Hon. Dr. Manion, Minister of Railways in the Federal Government and himself a representative from the head of the lakes, is alleged to have given material assistance to the Hon,. Peter in his efforts to put this deal across, notwithstanding the strenuous opposition of the Hon. Wesley A. Gorâ€" Jdon, under whose Federal jurisdiction this work is supposed to come. And, right here we might state that it is our belief that the Hon. W. A. Gordon, alâ€" though doing everything he possibly could, did not get the support he should have from either the general public or the politicians of this part of Northern Ontario. The mess we now find ourâ€" selves in is largely the fault of the men who should have been doing their best to prevent the very thing which has happened, instead of leaving it pretty much.all to the Temiskaming member. True, some of the members have been busy during the last short period, but the contractors and their friends have been busy for some yeatrs. In another column on the front page the Speaker has the following editorâ€" ial reference:â€" "From the information to hand it is more than apparent that the contracâ€" tors, who will make millions, and the politicians interested have apparently succeeded in "putting it over." The one thing we are surprised at, however, is the utter indifference of the newsâ€" papers of Old Ontario to the tremenâ€" dous deal now being put over the taxâ€" payers of the province. How many editors in Ontario have taken the trouâ€" ble to get any information on a scheme which will make the building of the Northern Ontario Railway "look like two cents"? Have they taken the trouâ€" ble to ascertain who will make money out of the enterprise? Do they think for one minute that the unemployed, whose interests are being so loudly talked of by those interested in this gigantic expenditure, will make anyâ€" thing more than a pittance of a wage? If they have thought about it at all they should realize that contractors will be made mililonaires, politicians made happy, and the unemployed will be back home again at periodic times just as emptyâ€"handed as they were wlhien the work began. "If this road work is necessary to give employment the people of Ontaria should at least assert themselves sutâ€" ficiently to make it compulsory for the governments to builg the road through tcrrltory that will ultimately benefit the province as a whole, and at the same time where road building operaâ€" tions can be carried on at a minimum of expenditure." Three Months Each for Two Men Here (Continued from Page One) Traffic Cases Numerous Matthew Miller paid $10 and costs for reckiess driving. No damage had been done. Tony Tarabass was fined $10 and costs for failing to report an accident to the police in which bodily in jury resulted. A child had been knocked down on Third avenue and the driver., Tarabass, had taken the lad to a docâ€" tor and then home. He said that he didn‘t know accidents had to be reâ€" ported. ‘ Eli Kespi admitted having defective brakes on his car and also admitted| using license plates on it that belonged’ to another car. He said that he didn‘t have enough money to buy the plates but he paid $10 and costs for each ofâ€"| fense, a total of $38.50. | The magistrate recognized him. An order for $99 wages dues James Lennon was issued against Michael McNulty. Lennon had been foreman on a building job and had not received his wages, he claimed. Other amounts, charged as owing in last week‘s court by other men, had been paid. Payments under the Deserted Wives‘ and Children‘s Maintenance Act in one case recently before the court, will in future be made through the Chiief of Police, the magistrate advised.

Sopha Gets Three Months Bruce ‘Sopha, found guilty of atâ€" tempting a gross indecency with anâ€" other male person, will spend the next three months in the Haileybury jJail. A lad of 17 told a story of how Sopha had induced him to spend night at his room and of the attempt at indeâ€" cency made during the early hours of the morning. The boy, being a boxer, haq administered a severe beating up to the man and had immediately teleâ€" phoned the police. Sopha denied everything and tried to insinuate that the boy had meant to rob him. However, he could give no explanation of why he had not comâ€" plained to the police about being Aasâ€" gaulted, nor could he say why he hadn‘t denied the boy‘s story until he was on the witness stand. sopha had been originally charged with a very serious offence, later reâ€" duced to committing an act of gross indecency, and at the end of the case reduced to attempting to commit an act of that sort. Counsel helq that the had had enough punishment, if he were gulilty, sinceâ€" he had been given a sevare beatâ€" ing up and had spent three weeks in the town lockâ€"up.

There are many amateur sports which are having a sufficiently hard time as it is, and the imposition of a tax on admissions may well spell the death of some of them.
