In reviewing the addresses given at the recent Banquet at Iroquois Fal‘s in connection with the Associated Boards of Trade meeting, The Adâ€" vance mentioned that the addresses de served much more extended reference than could be given in an ordinary reâ€" port, and that further reference in these columns would be made, especiat ly to the address by Mr. G. C. Ba‘te. ma, manager of the LaRose (Mine. Part of Mr. Bateman‘s excellent adâ€" dress on the Mining Industry is given below :â€" ‘*Prior to 1900 the development of the industry had been slow and in that year the total value of ‘the proâ€" duction was only $10,000,000. By 1918, however, this value had increased to ©80,000,000, and up until the end of 1920 the total value of the metallt« production of the province was $648,â€" 000,000. ~The amount is really much higher than this, as metals such as copper and nickel were valued: much below their selling price. However, these figures are the best we can get, and they do not err in favor of the industry. Dividends paid by successâ€" ful conmpanies amounted: to $125,000,â€" 000, which leaves $535,000,000 as the cost of production. Fo this must hbe added $160,000,000 ceapital invested by successful companies and a further $70,000,000 by the unsuccessful ones, THE ONTARIO RAILWAY AND MUNICIPAL BOARD. In the matter of the Application of the Council of the Town of Timâ€" mins, under subsection (2) of secâ€" tion 18 of ‘‘The Municipal Act,"‘ for annexation to such Town of that â€"part of the Township of Mountjoy adjoining the said Town of Timâ€" mins consisting of all the northâ€" east quarter of the north half of Lct 1, Concession 11 in said Townâ€" ship, containing 40.04 acres more or less, and being the property of The Timmins Townsite Company, Limitâ€" ed. : Appointment for Hearing The Ontario Railway and Municipal Board hereby appoints Thursday, the fifteenth day of December, A.D., 1921, at the hour of halfâ€"past eleven o‘clock in the forenoon, at the Court House, in the Town «of Haileybury, for the Hearing herein.

T4E PORCUIPINE ADVANCE Secretary. giving a total of over $760,000,000 exâ€" sended ‘by the mires of this province. This vast sum has been paid out by the mirmng industry for labor, supâ€" plies and equipment, and a large part of it has gone directly to the farmers and business men of the older part of the province. ‘The shareholders in these companies received dividends of $125,000,000 on an invested capital of $160,000,000, while the business interâ€" ests received the profits on disburseâ€" ments of $760,000,000, _ It does not seem unreasongahble to suppose ‘that the business interests have profited to a greater extent than the shareholder. * According to returns given to the provincial house this spring, the Proâ€" vince from 1907 to 1920, inclusive, deâ€" rived in direet revenue over $11,000,â€" 000. Most of this revenue came from Northern Ontario from an aréa which lies within a circle having a radius of less than 75 miles, and which repre sents only a very small part of the pos sibe productive area of the provincs, ‘"We oftem hear it stated, however, and somtimes hy Governmert minis ters who ought to know better, that the province expends more on mining than it receives. To answer this I re ferâ€"to. the Government records for the vear ending March, 1920. This Or a not profit of ...w...%. $900,000 ‘‘‘This represents a return of over $5.00 for each $1.00 expended, or over 500 per cent. profit, which, with a business concern, would be called the grossest kind of profiteering. When I tell you that over 50 per cent. of the disbursements are made up of the 2« penees of fuel investigation and the exploration and investigation of oil and gas wells, you will see ‘that I am being more thay fair to ‘the Goverm ment. ‘"‘It is interesting to note. that for the same period the Department of Agriculture expended $2,795,407 while the revenue of the Department was $263,623, or for every dollar expended on agriculture they got back nine cents. From figures obtained: within the last few days direct from the Hon. Mr. Drury‘s office, it is shown that during the year ending October 31st., 1920, from Northern Ontario alone, revenue from the mines was $984,000, as against expenditures of $99,000, or a return of $10.00 for each.one spent. Shareholders in a business concern who received such returns as this would look upon the company with the highest consideration, but this is not the attitude of the Provincial Goâ€" vernment. Premier Drury, in a re cent speech at Cochrane, referred to Northern ~Ontario as a ‘treasured i‘dau;}zh‘ter inâ€"her mother‘s house. 1 would respect‘fully suggest to the hrenâ€" orable gentleman that he provide the poor girl with some clothes. tie province expends n than it receives. To an ferâ€"to. the Governmenr the year ending Mare shows: Gross revenues of .... Gross disbursements of ""I have shown you that the minâ€" ing industry has not only been a hig revenue producer to ‘the province as a whole, but to thie government as well, and that it has made remarkable strides in the past few years. It is, however, capable of much greater things. Our gold mines are only in the early stages of their life, and new fields yet remain to be discovered. We have great undeveloped and unknown aroas which will provide mines to ré,. place those now being exhausted. ‘*It should be evident that the proâ€" per development of our mineral reâ€" sources and their wise encouragement is a problem of national importance for our statesmen. We appreciate the action of the provincial government in separating the Department of Mines from Lands and Forests, but they did no‘t go quite far enough. As far as the technical staff of the Department is concarned I have only words of praise. They are inen of the highest integrity and atâ€" tainments, who perform their difficult duties for entirely inadequate remuâ€" neration, but I would suggest that at the head of the department we re quire men who by virtue of their knowledge, expevience and ability will provide real leadership in the developâ€" ment of our mineral resources.. We need men who can appreciate that a mine is a wasting asset, and ‘that there can be no real profityw until after the capital ‘has been returned, men who understand that the hardships and risks attendant upon the opening up of a mining property deserve an adeâ€" quate reward, men ‘who realize that it is neither just nor businessâ€"like to single out special companies for speâ€" cial taxes and finally men who are sufficiently interested in this country to encourage its development along sound lines, instead of looking at it simply as a possible source of revenne to meet ‘the present extravagant exâ€" penditures of Old Ontario."‘ Recen‘tly Provincial Officer Ataman seized a.club bag containing ten botâ€" tles of beautiful booze, the: seizure taking place at Porquis Junction.
