THE PROSPECT FOR LUMBERMEN A brief survey of the condi- tions affecting the lumber ‘in- dustry is given in the annual nuinber of the Western Lum- berman, which has recently come to hand. No feeling of despondency on aecount of the money stringency is expressed, On the contrary the Lumber- man thinks that such tempor- ary depressions may be, per- haps, blessings in disguise, since they serve as a check to the tendency towards an ex- cessive precocity and put a brake upon the too rapid de- velopment which is apt to arise from a prolonged spell of uni- form prosperity. In spite of the inactivity which has prevailed in busi- ness circles during the past six months there has_ been considerable development in the lumber industry of the west during the year, At the coast and in the mountains new mills have been placed in operation and existing mills have undergone’ enlargement while in the Prairies many new retail yards and _ wholesale warehouses have opened for business. Almost all existing businesses, too, whether man- ufacturing, wholesale, or re- tail report increased trade—a condition brought about by the great increase in population— and state that the year’s bus- iness has been good. Future prospects are con- sidered to be good. For one thing with a good crop, there will be an immediate better- ment in all lines of business- Again in the lumber manufac- turing circles prospects are excellent. The proposed alter- ations in the United States tariff should, if they go thro- ugh, enable the Canadian man- ufacturers to enter the Ameri- THINK OF THIS, Tuesday, July 22, 1913 Panama anal, also, should do a great deal to” stimulate the manufacturing industry of British Columbia by lessening the freight rates and the time of transportation between Western Canada and European ports. . There are, however, dangers which, though still distant, are beginning to threaten cer- tain branches of the lumber industry. Chief among these is the competition which creeping. in owing to the cheap ening of brick and brick con- struction.e Other rivals to the lumberman are the makers of concrete, of metallic ceiling and metallic siding, of metal- lic and asbestos shingles and of the tiles which many of the is brick plants recently estab- lished throughout the west are turning out. To cope with their rivals the Western Lumberman ad- yises the heads of the lumber- ing industry to advertise their wares vigorously. It does not think, however, that the threat of such, extraneous compeli- toin is commensurate with the possibilities afforded by the prospects of a widening mar- ket. IN ULSTER! The Londonderry and other Ulster towns rowdies for the last three years have been chalking on walls such legends as ‘“Papist Ned,’ “Fenian Geordie.’ Outside admirers of Ulster loyalists, if there are any, may be surprised to learn that “Papist Ned’? meant the late King Edward, ‘Fenian Geordie” our present King. The observance of constitu- tional procedure by the sover- eign is thus stigmatized by the. patriots of North Ireland who want to continue ruling that can market upon a_ basis of equality.

Ferguson was out for Fred Peterson, the owner of the Wild Rose. ore At the Harris mines the boys are drifting to the north on the 185 foot level and also raising to the 100 foot level for air. The ore in the drift continues good and the boys are well satisfied. They are now stripping the vein at the north end and down the hill preparatory to starting the long tunnel on the vein. On Wednesday afternoon the good news came from General Manager Haskins at the Silver Standard mine that they had broke into ore on the upper vein. The big crosseut tunnel from the main shaft was completed the latter part of the week and it opened up a= strong vein three feet wide. The tunnel is 425 feet long and gives a depth of 350 feet on the upper vein. Last week D. McLeod and Duke Harris made a trip to Silver Cup mine, on Nine Mile Mountain, for the purpose of looking over the property with a view of getting development work started again this summer. Mr. McLeod re- ported that they inspeeted Nos. 2 and. 3 tunnels on the Cup claim as well as the workings on the Duke claim, farther down the hill, The No. 1 tunnel fs still filled with snow. With the Nos. 2 and 3 he was more than pleased and states that they are in fine shape to be- gin taking out ore. The No. 3 gives them at least 700 feet of depth and the vein is strong and the ore high grade. Mr. McLeod is recommending to the company that work on the Silver Cup be resumed this summer. He is making a full report to the com- pany and it is expected that the directors will act upon his recom- mendations.—Omineca Herald.
