James Hylands, of Cobalt, who organized the Cobalt Citizens‘ Liberty League, is in the Camp organizing a branch here. ‘‘I have received the heartiest support and. ecncouragement in the Poreupine,‘‘ says Mr. Hylands. It is the intention to form the ILaberâ€" ty Leagues all over Canada. **The Dominion and Provinceial Legislatures are continually passing â€" Prohibition Acts, all directed against the rightful and just liberty of the citizen,""‘ says Mr. Hylands, ‘‘and it is high time hat we organize and fight for tights, just as the extremists are orâ€" canizcd to fight for their favorite fads that deprive the ordinary decent citizen of his personal rights and free dom.‘‘ At present the chiet purpose of the Liberty League is to oppose what is considered oppressive legislaâ€" tion along temperance lines. TE the ordinary man will only take an in terest and join in the organization for the preservation of personal liberâ€" tx, freedom will remain in this connâ€" try, ‘but otherwise it goes altogether,"" says Mr. Hylands.

Investigaâ€" tion showed that the fire had started from an acetylene torch used in the work now under way of remodelling the water tank. ‘The prompt and proper use of the chemical extinguishâ€" ers soon put the fire out,â€"put it out, indeed, before it had a chance to get rightly started. Practically no damâ€" age was done, but the. damâ€" age that might have oceurred from a real fire in such a place emphasizes the usefulness of the Fire Dept here. The destruction of the valve house would mean the disarrangement of the whole water service of the town, with consequences that â€" might follow from such a misfortune as that. The incident also points the moral that all buildings in connection with the water supply and the fire department should be of fireâ€"proof construction. Thexe seems to be something funny to most people in the idea of the fire hall or adjacent buildings being burned by fire, but in a casge of that kind of : fire the matter would be far mdecd from a joke. 111 11 Pte.

Mr. C is manager of the p: pushing development viow to Many have ‘beey won@cring this week at the activity in Gold Reef shares and the strengthening of that stock on the market. ‘The immediate cause of the advanc», perhaps, is the reported purchase of a large block of shareg byâ€"Mr. J. ‘PF. Eastman,‘ but there are others factors in the case no doubt. The Goldâ€"Reef is favorâ€" ably regarded by many mining men in the Poreupine. The property has had rich free gold showings and given other indications of promise. In adâ€" dition it should be remembered that at present the outside world is greatâ€" ly interested in Porcupine properties, and ‘‘the least little thing"‘ is likely to turn this interest into aetivity. There is a general and wellâ€"founded impression that the North Land is a ereat mineral country, and the fame of the Hollinger, Melntyre and other mines up here, make the public ready to wateh for the signs of the times in prospects and new properties. r*". Miad *# ut pe One of those people who delight in fizsures and figuring has figured out a nice bunch of interesting figures aâ€" bout the assesment work figured on to be done in the mining distriects of Temiskaming this voar. I6 is fignured that â€"between 2000 and 3000 claims must have work done on them this year to prevent forfeiture, and on some of these claimsg there will be ninety days‘ work to ‘be done, on others sixty days‘, and on a few only thirty days‘ work The majority, it is figared, will reanu‘re ninety days‘ work, and to be on thesafe side the Gizurer fiznures on 200 claims at an average of 60 days‘ work each. This would fizgnre out to 120,000 days‘ work for the lot. Then it is finally izured out that to perform this aâ€" mount of assessment work in the six open months of the year would reâ€" quire about eight hundred men workâ€" inw steadily twentyâ€"six days during each of the aforesaid six open months Assessment work in the North Land is us made to cut au‘te a fgure. special music will he St. Matthew‘s Churech on 114 development work thoroughly provin: C.
