B. (Bulldog) Brown, writ ling a personal letter to the edi- tor, complains of the fact that jthe northern section of British i|\Columbia is not doing its best to jadvance the mining interests of jthe district He has unbounded faith in the ores in the vicinity of Prince Rupert, and deplores ithe fact that as representative of British Columbia at the Interna. tional Mining Congress he did not have samples show from this district. Mr. Brown says, in part “At the American Mining Con- gress in Spokang last month, the gathering of mining men from all over America gave one a chance to get in touch with gen- eral conditions and note the trend of mining cx As a tion committee nditions the resolu.

These meetings are of benefit to give one a viewpoint of what the other sections are doing and get a line on what will give suc- cess in reaching mining in- vestors. This is the day of big deals, strong combinations, money parted with only when there can be seen a process to treat the ore and a life of the mine to wear out the machinery, and there is more of an inquiry on these lines than I have seen among strong interests. Your people failed to send me ore samples, as I had requested Had they so favored me it would have been a means of bringing some visitors to your city; as is, there may be some callers o1 their way to Hazelton, as I showed some ores that were commentec jupon with favor and if there is |}a prospect of securing interests jtrips will be made in the early | spring.
