CHAMBER
OF
MINES
rstaMishment
of
Branch
in
Trince
Ruoert
Is
Advocated
In
view
of
the
deep
Interest
that
was
taken
In
the
mining
lectures
which
were
conducted
here
last
week
by
George'
E.
Winkler
for
the
provincial
Department
of
Mines,
the
suggestion
Is
being
revived
In
local
mining
circles
that
a
branch
of
the
British
Columbia
Chamber
of
Mines
should
be
established
here.
It
is
peculiar
enough
that
in
this,
the
centre
for
mining
as
well
as
the
other
Industries
of
Northern
and
Central
British
Columbia,
there
is
so
far
no
chamber
of
mines
while
such
centres
as
Alice
Arm,
Stewart
and
Smlthers
already
have
them.
The
Chamber
of
Mines
for
years
has
been
doing
good
work
In
connection
with
advertising
and
development
of
the
mines
of
the
province.
By
having
one
here,
Prince
Rupert
would
be
showing
Its
interest
In
the
industry
and
considerable
benefit
would,
no
doubt,
result
for
the
city.
