Câ€"@1IBSsON Indians Think Railway Would Spoil Fur Trade According to despatches from The Pas, Manitoba, last week, one of the most unusual protests ever made to the building of the Hudson Bay Railway has come from the Indians at York Factory. During the recent two days "talk" of the council, which is held annually after treaty payments, the paying agent was officially requested to stop these people building railway to Churchill because it will affect the fur trade in the York Factory region. The request ~was made with all seriousness, and the paying agent was faced with a problem, according to the version to the affair which has reached The Pas. However, the agent told his redskin friends that there was littie chance of the tracks to Churchill being torn up for their sake, at the same time assuring them that the Government would not allow them to starve on acâ€" count of a fur shortage. The Indians accepted the agent‘s promise that he would do all he could for them, but they are far from being pacified about the Bay Railway. The York Factory tribe claims that the white people living at Churchill will stop white fox from coming farther down the coast, and thereby the chief source of their fur catch would be cut off. The protest of the Pactory Indians has caused widespread discussion in the north, and has again raised the problem of further aid to the Indians in times of stress. MEETING OF HORTICULTURAL °_ sSOCIETY FRIDAY THIS WEEK A meeting of the Timmins Horticulâ€" tural Society is called for Friday evenâ€" ing of this week, August 9th, at 7 p.m. in the town hall.

It was not until about year ago that any real anxiety was felt for the two adventurers who are both rated skilled woodsmen, and it now tranâ€" spires that at no period of their outing were they in any danger of starvation, though at one time they were forced to live off the land for about three months. Steve and Palmquist left for the Unâ€" Steve and Palmquist left for the Unâ€" gava district travelling down the Alâ€" bany river by canoe to James Bay reaching Fort George on the east coast where they outfitted at the Hudson‘s Bay Company‘s post for a long soâ€" journ in the vicinity of the headwaters of Hamilton river on the Labrador slope. * Here they quietly amassed samples of ore and a plentiful stock of furs, the latter of which were disposed of at Fort George. Unfortunately their many valuable samples of ore were lost in he waters of James Bay when their :anoe was upset in a sudden squall, etween Fort George and East Main, whih meant a return to the former so0int, where they embarked on a Hud â€" son‘s Bay Company boat destined for son‘s Bay Compally Ucoluicu ivi Charlton Island. Here they met F. H. Kitto, .F R. G. S. and A. E. Porsild, two Dominion Govâ€" ernment officials, with whom they threw in their lot, the party reaching Moose Factory via Rupert House and from thence traversing the Abitibi by canoe to the end of steel of the Temisâ€" kaming and Northern Ontario Railway where they entrained for Cochrane, Ontario. It is understood that both trappers plan another expedition to the Ungava district. HAYDEN MINE NOW TO BE | DEWATERED AND DEVEL()PFDl mine in Th POrCUpPIIC yuIiu altd. Alii this connection a power line has been run to the property, an electrically operated compressor and hoist are in place and as soon as the transformers have been installed the work of pumypâ€" ing out the shafts and levels will be started. The Hayden mine is said to contain a long and Gefined surface vein and possible ore showings running east and west through its property. The shaft is down 700 feet, having been sunk 200 feet to the north of the surface vein. No crosscuts have been driven south from any of the existing levels to tap or open up this indicated ore body. As soon as the mine has been dewatered, crosscuts will be run from two or more of the existing levels to cut the veins on the south. There are said to be two of these veins formâ€" ing the north and south contact of an east and west dyke of porphyry. The south vein, when stripped, showed a width of 10 feet opposite the shaft and 19 feet a short distance farther west.
