All indications point to the mill being reopened in March. This mill has a capacity of 150 tons, but if the necessity arises it can be stepped up to 200 tons. On account of poor advice given by previous engineers, the mill had to be closed down, as the work was not being produced in accordance with the mill‘s ceapacity, but there will be no possibility of a reoccurrence of this under the present management and ownership. a statement issued, Manager Baldwin of March Gold is most enthusiastice for the future of this property. He says that everything is going fine, and there is absolutely no hitch in the proâ€" gcramme whatever. The shaft is now down 435 feet, and they are cutting the station at 425 feet for crossâ€"cut. It is expected that within 40 days they will reach the ore bodies on this level. ‘‘Things are going well,""‘ says Manager Baldwin, ‘"‘and when we " â€"Arée gong@g Wwell,‘‘ says Manager Baldwin, ‘‘and when we strike. our present objective we will go ahead with the sinking of two more levels to a depth of a further 200 feet.‘‘ In a interview last week with outâ€" side newspapers, officials of the March (iold are quoted as very hopeful for the work now being carried on. In Prospects are good now for the progress of the March Gold Mines in Deloro. The March Gold has about 300 acres in a section of Deloro that has recently been rousing very general favour, being located in the same area as the Paymaster and the Ankerite. There is a mill on the property and a good mining plant. The property is largely owned by Buffalo interests, the original shareholders being chiefly members of the staff of the Buffalo police department. ‘While some new money has come in recently, there is still a considerable part of the stock held by public officials of Buffalo‘s municipal staff still on the list of stockholders.

Timmins reports that not very many orders have come in for miners, and that there are always a certain numâ€" ber of men looking for work in this group, so that it would not be advisâ€" able for men to go there with the idea of getting work in this line as soon as they arrive, and only experâ€" ienced machine runners are in any kind of demand from now on . as does St. Thomas.

Mr. Ferguson remarkâ€" ed that geologically Manitobha, Quebec and Ontario were one province, and that mining men were bhound to conâ€" sider it as such. He and Mr. Tasherâ€" eau, of Quebec, were working in close harmony on the problems «connected with northern development."‘ Premier Ferguson, of Ontario. Should the federal government made the proâ€" posed law, Ontario for one province and prohdbl\ Quebec also, will enact coincident legislation assuming for the provinces responsibilities now vested in federal authorities. Much closer control of stock salesmen, tipping sheets, and general brokerage business would ‘be possible, Mr. Ferguson said. ‘"‘The premier expressed himself as well satisfied with the results of Atâ€" torneyâ€"General _ Price‘s _ campaign against improper stock selling pracâ€" tises. ‘Word had come to the governâ€" ment of a number of concerns, which might be under suspicion, having closed their offices, with the princeipals returning to the United States. The gcovernment had been congratulated in many quarters on its promptness in dealing with the situation,. It is felt that the most dangerous element has been pretty well eliminated. The government will not diminish its vigiâ€" lance and is anxiously awaiting the legislation from Ottawa, which will strengthen Ontario‘s hand. ‘‘The Premier was very keenly inâ€" terested in Northern mining developâ€" ment. The Northern Miner quickly saw, in conversation that he has a remarkable grasp of the most minute details of the mining industry and of developments and discoveries. ‘‘He is a confirmed optimist on the present camps and the prospects of the new ones developing into producâ€" ing fields. He sees the development of the North‘s mineral resources as just now entering upon its greatest period. It pleased him to know that citizens of the province were winning a large share of the gains made in the expansion of the mines. The reâ€" velation of the richness of the Kirkâ€" land Lake field was bringing world atâ€" tention to our gold mining. _ He felt particularly hopeful of new gold in the Patricia country and elsewhere, and expressed the opinion that Onâ€" tario in a few years would assume a commanding place in the production of base metals such as copper zine and lead.
