"One point that was to have been discussed was the reiteration of the demand made earlier in the year for a commission to investigate the setâ€"up and other conditions in the North. it was only held recently might have something to do with the situation. ‘"Some people," he said, "may think that with the former government reâ€" turned to power it is no good pressing the cause of the North, others are probâ€" ably waiting to see what will develop during the winter and spring, and a little more than hoping that problems of tax adjustment and of highway conâ€" struction will be dGdealt with. Disaprointed at the fac that there was insufficient attendance to warrant the holding here Wednesday of the anâ€" nual meeting of the Associated Boards of Trade of Northern Ontario, W. O. Langdon of Timmins, president of the organization, stated that there was danâ€" ger in such apathy towards efforts to promote and protect the interests of the T. N. 0. country. Mr. Langdon arrived here to find that only one other delegate from out of town was on hand, in the person of George Lee of North Bay, former comâ€" missioner of the T. N. O. Railway. Delegates from the Kirkland district Board of Trade who would have atâ€" tended arrived at, Township hall to find that there was no meeting. A turkey dinner, to have been held in the eveâ€" ning, was also cancelled, while Mr. Langdon prozseeded south to attend the Ontario Assocviated Boards of Trade meeting, which took place in Toronto. "Admittedly," said Mr. Langdon, "some delegates would have some disâ€" tance to travel, but the meeting was purposely called at Kirkland Lake as being the. most..central.point in â€" the territory. The weather was good‘ for motoring, and there are always trains." Discussed Apathy Attempting to analyze the lack of inâ€" terest in a body which earlier in the year was quite aggressive, Mr. Langdon | ventured the thought that the de:isive-“ ness of the election, and the fact that Disappointed at the Lack of Interest President of Associated Boards Expresses Regret at Kirkland Lake.

These claims include claim number €£589, on which there is a trench 33 feet long, four fet wide and from three to seven feet deep. A number of high grade grab samples were taken some time agc. At last advice from the management of Electra Porcupine Mines Limited, East Night Hawk Lake area, a renewed programme of development and drilling was underway. The company camp has been moved to the new site for diamond drilling. F. E. Towsley, in charge, adâ€" vises drilling is directed 60 degrees north in the first of the new holes.

From an allâ€"quartz ‘type it became a banded quartz schist |of excellent grade. In 1914 the mill ihandled 62,000 tons of ore.

Construction of the mill was begun in November and comâ€" pleted in March. The following years | were "hectic‘" ones. It was found diffiâ€" ‘cult to sell the company‘s shares at 1(35 cents a share, Hollinger officials only bidding 25 cents. The new mill also proved unsatisfactory, the precipitation process refused to recover the dissolved ’gold and the tube mills had to be robâ€"~ |bed to meet the payroll. Mrs. Jelbert, secretary of the Cornish Social Club wishes to ask all who woauld like to become members of the club to get their applications in before Nov. 30th,. Mrs. Je‘bert says that while apâ€" plications are received ard accepted anry time in the year, she would like to get them all in before the 30th, so that they would have an idea how many to plan for, for the Christmas eventsâ€" Christmas Tree, etc. Mrs. Jelbert‘s address is 35 Messines avenue and her post officze box address, 1989. Now the Time to Join the Cornish Social Club Here All this time the hope and expectaâ€" tion had been that the rich veins being worked in the Hollinger mine alongside would find their way into McIntyre _A tenâ€"stamp mill was set up in 1911 but notwithstanding that three shafts had been surk and levels run, ore enoigh could not be found to keep the mill in operation and it had to be fed with waste rock. Finances from New York came in insufficient quantity and when payrolls had to be met, Ennis. to use his cwn graphic phrase, was sometimes ‘"only two jumps ahead of the sheriff." The tenâ€"stamp mill was not a success for when a body of aurifâ€" erous pyrite was found in September, 1912, which assayed threeâ€"quarters of an ounce per ton, the amalgamation process saved only 50 per cent. of the gold. New York thereupon ordered the Erection of a new 150â€"ton cyanide mill, "but forgot to serd the money." Nevertheless, Ennis went ahead and put up the mill, going into debt for its construction, but helped by the local manager of the Bank of Commerce who internal history of the mine. Showings of free gold on which Sandy MciIntyre had staked his claims were far from but after years proved their worth. One N the veins, No. 5, has produced $19,000,000 in gold and is still going strong. The original McIntyre claims had been pointed to Charies Flynn of New York and were turnsd cver by him to Albert Freeman who shortly afterwards got into disfavour vith the Urited States authorities over the flotation of another mine an inciâ€" cent which did not conduce to easy financing. R. J. Ennis, who has been manager of McIntyre for 25 years continuously, in a recent address related some of the (From "Grab> Samples" in The Northern Miner) Promoters and mine makers of toâ€" day, discouraged by market conditions and fearful that they may have to stop operations, should take heart from the history of the McIntyre mine in Porcuâ€" pine. Of course, the mine as it stands toâ€"day is a much bigger property than it was in the earlies, the absorption of adjoining claims being the result of profits won from the original holdings.
