Irone: EP16 mines and forests of this country. Earlier this year the Premier dealt a nasty blow to the prospects of the mining camps by that ‘‘more revenâ€" ue‘‘ idea of his. His proposal to tax the mines out of existence frightened away capital and seriously set back the eamps of the North Land in the matter of development and progress. The mining and pulp and lumber inâ€" dustries of the North Land are the mainstays of this country. _ Without them, there wouldn‘t be enough farâ€" amers left to hold a picnic. The,. prosâ€" perity and development of this counâ€" try rest absolutely on the wellâ€"being of the mines and the pulp and timber industries. The attitude of the iPreâ€" mier that the mines have only one purpose and excuse for being,â€"the providing of ‘‘more revenue"‘ for the people of the south to squander,â€"is doing more than any one single factor to retard the development of the Norâ€" th Land. At present the mines are bearing all they can reasonably be expected to stand,â€"much more than their fair shareâ€"of taxation. The ‘Threats of anything further in the way of taxation is by no means the avay to draw the ‘*closer coâ€"operation of the residents of the North.""‘ In aAll the mining camps of the North, the prosperity of each and every man in the community rests directly on the success of the mines. The mines canâ€" wt be injured without injury to every *san in the district, even the settlers for miles around. Consequently, if Mr. Drury is sincere in his expressed dlesire for ‘*teoâ€"operation," if he beâ€" ‘jigi‘es in anyvthing like a fair, square deal, if he does not wisit his regime Asks Coâ€"operation of North. ‘‘More Revenue‘‘ from Mines, etc. No 7 Extension Now of T. & N.O. farmers . pienmic at New duskeard toes give one a great understanding of the North Land. The Premier had on his kidding shoes. He begged for closer eoâ€"operâ€" ation from the residents of the Norâ€" th, and almost in the same breath said that he (the Government) was going to get ‘‘more revenue‘‘ from the mines and forests of this country.

Indeed, almost at the start the road goes through what one man humorously terms as, the *‘ famous Pletch Claims.‘"" But further along it touches near other properties proâ€" bably. more promising, if not so wideâ€" ly known in the Camp. PThis new road should eertainly be of . material advantage in assisting the developâ€" ment of Shaw Township. At present there is a road running along part of the boundary between Shaw and Deloro from South Poreuâ€" pine. â€" The idea is to improve this road, and run the new branch from the Tommy James claims agross Shaw as aforementioned. ‘The (Government has agreed to pay half the cost and the Township and the mines interestâ€" ed are paying the other half. ® EXPRESS COMPANY HOLDING CONSIGNMENTS OF LIQUOR n _ Acting in accordance with instruetâ€" ions from headâ€"office to the effect that all liquor coming by express and not delivered before midnight July 18th should be held until further orders, the local express office is holding some 15 or 20 cases of liquor in the office here. Maybe some of the consignees are not sore at this attitude of the express companies! Several of those having liquor come in here went to the police yesterday when they found that they could not get their valuable lifeâ€"saving fluid. _ They found . the police attitude far morereasonable and humane. [The police, acting on the instructions of the license inspectâ€" or, were willing to allow a couple of days‘ grace for the delivery of liquor in all cases where good citizens reâ€" ceived express consignments around the 18th. It was felt that anything else would be a decided hardship, ceived express consignmen the 18th.

[roquois Falls usually has three or four teams, none of them to be sneezâ€" ed at, and from these local aggregaâ€" tions they select their town team for the district games. It‘s a great adâ€" vantage all right, but one for which the Falls only deserves credit. It is within the reach of any and all of the other towns in the District League if they only show interest and enthusiâ€" Timmins Baseball team, wit ber of enthusiastic fans, is at Falls toâ€"day (Wednesday) % first game with that oldâ€"time rival in the revised District Timmins has a good team ; doubling of the schedule. _ Timmins has now four games with each of the other two teams, Cochrane and Iroâ€" quois Falls, two at home and two aâ€" way in each case. [Foâ€"day Timmins is at the Falls, and on Auguast 3rd, the Falls will be here. _ The other two [roquois Falls games are on Septeimâ€" ber 7th at the Falls and on September 14th here. _ Timmins has won from Cochrane here, and goes to Cochrane on Tuesday of next week. Cockhrane comes here again on August 10th and Timmins goes to Cochrane on August 24th.

[f it turns out, as expected, a snappy exhibition of good _ball and keenly contested, it will send the District Baseball League away with a bang. As noted last week, the withdrawal of the Mcelntyreâ€"Dome team from the District series resulted in a reâ€"arâ€" rangement of the list of games and a doubling of the schedule. _ Timmins has now four vames with each of the Cochrane has a firstâ€"class baseball team, and will certainly have to be réckoned with in the League, though on account of oldâ€"time neighborly riâ€" valry special interest will be shown here in all the Iroquois Fallsâ€"Timmins eames. TIMMINS PLAYS FALLS TOâ€"DAY 1X DISTRICT GAKME POLICE COURT COLLECTED NEAR $900.00 LAST WEEK. Nearly $900.00 ($840.00 and costs to be exact) was the amount collected last week by means of the Timnmins Police Court, the lawâ€"breakers helpâ€" inz out the finances of the town to this extent, thanks to the efforts of the Chief and his police force. _ The biggest contribution was ‘Otto Hoapâ€" anan, who gave $500.00 and costs for keeping liquor for sale. ~‘Otto got in 14 gallons of 65 overproof aleohol on Jualy 4th, and the police camped on his trial and the trail of that strong stuff. On the O9th they found that aâ€" bout: 6 gallons of the precious stuff was gone, while there had been a dot of visitors at the shack where Oito heid the antiâ€"dry goods. In his deâ€" fence ‘Otto claimed that the most of the stuff must have leakedâ€"away. The police, however, said not the "kind of leak that Otto wished the court to beâ€" lieve.

Schumacher also has some Water Polo players and the match here on Regatta Day, the 2ith, will be between either South Poreupine or Schumacher and Timâ€" mins. The boys here are so confident that they are ready to meet a combinâ€" ation of the South End and Sehumâ€" acher teams. â€" In Water Polo there are six on a side. with one sub. . The chored buoys. _ The game is played something like football, only the playâ€" ers use their hands instead of their feet to send the ball along. ‘The ball is the size of a football and the idea is to get it through the other fellow‘s goal. In each team there are three forwards, two backs and a goalâ€"tendâ€" er, and the game has a regular set of rules of its own. The players have to be good swimmers, though for some positions they need not be necessarily very swift, though all must be able to stay in the water without discomfort. A referee and a timeâ€"keeper are the officials required, and these officials are supposed to be expert swimmers, though it is possible for the officials to see to their duties from a canoe.

JUST THINKS OF MINES IN TERMS OF ‘‘MORE REVENUE" . In an address at Fort William durâ€" ing his tour (?) of the North Counâ€" try, Premier Drury said that the presâ€" ent Government was going to collect more revenue from both mines and forests, was going to administer the timber resources of the Province with greater efficiency than did its predeâ€" cessors, that it was going to exercise a more enlightened policy of coloniâ€" zation, ete. It will be noted that the Government (alias Drury) never thinks about the mining industry apâ€" parently except with the idea of getâ€" ting ‘‘more revenue‘‘ from it. Hon. Mr. Drury should have some kinderâ€" garten teacher read him the story of the greedy man who killed the goose that laid the golden eges. TRAFFIC BYâ€"LAW PROVES HARD ON RURAL FOLKS.
