Swayne and children .were in 'Timmins Tuesday. garmusm mum: mun Haws Gflfll] mm Canadian Government Railway trains in the North Land favour the prospector. They allow him consid- erable latitude in the way of excess baggage if he travels on the Canadian National with his equipment and sup- plies when on the way to his claims or to new fields. The T. N. 0. Railway is not showing the same con- sideration for the prospector. The T. N. 0. makes the prospector send his supplies and extras by ex- press,â€"â€"a costly proceeding. The T. N. O. is supposed to be a colonizing factor, and should be ready to gives special consideration to the men who are truly helping to make this coun- try. Yet the commercial traveller gets special privileges and special rates, while the prospector (without whom the North would not be what it is to-day) has no preferences or assistance. In the long run it would- pay the country and pay the railway to transport the prospector, bag and baggage, free. Because he is a gene- rous fellow, the prospector has not thought of asking anything like this. But it certainly is not too much to suggest that while on his prospecting trips the prospector at least be given special rates and special privileges in the way of transportation of Sup- plies and equipment. The prospector travels on business of very vital im- portance to the development of the country and it would be only good business to assisthim in every rea- sonable way. 'Boys Give Interesting Demonstration Other Gonnaught News. ‘ the Connaught Bovs Athletic Club entertained their friends to a most interesting demonstration of their 11'01k last Friday e1 ening in the Public School housse.

For this week’s police court on Thursday (to-morrow) there are six charges against truck drivers for not having the' required licenses and an equal number of charges against an equal number of firms for allowing unlicensed chauffeurs to operate. D, Dominico, who had a barrel of wine in a boarding house is charged with illegally having liquor in a pub- lic place. Driving on the wrong side of the silent police is another charge to be heard. There are two charges of “drunk in a public place,” and one of “hav- ing a bottle.” The first charge of obstructing traffic by loitering on the sidewalk is against a local merchant who start- ed to discuss the question instead of moving along when requested. An Inspector of the Ontario Li- cense Board has been in town for some days and as a consequence of his checking up there are charges against same Tinuuins and South Porcupine drug stores to be heard.
