The Opposition has been saving itself for this event and yesterday the leader of the opposition joured out the vials oi his wrath (whatever that may be) against the head of the administration. Evidently Mr. Mackenzie King thinks there is an election at hand and he is rousing himself after a rather lengthy period of comparative inactivity- In fact everything points to an interesting session at Ottawa and it is possible that Mr. Bennett may accept the -challenge of the opposition before it is over and appeal to the electorate.

He showed that the Oeorgia Ilrver and' Mannot River sections -were poten--tial sources of -gold and minerals,; that the Bitter Creek ttecUon was' not .nearly proven and .held for-j tunes for the prospectors who would go over It carefully. On the Bear River "our old friend the Dun- well," which closed down some years ago as a silver-lead producer, would shortly open as a sold property, largely due to the efforts of such leasers as C. G. Jackson and H. D. Rochfort. members of the local branch of the Legion. Further up the "Bear Valley were other well known properties. On the Bear River Ridge the United Empire Gold and Silver Mints- was now In active operation. On the Salmon Valley the Premier could not fall to benefit by present gold prices. The Big Missouri had a crew at work and word had been received that 'the Consolidated had. taken over j the Salmon Gold. Many other pro-'perties in various districts also, looked promising. No other conclusion could be reached but that 1934 j wmild be a good year for 'gold, sil ver and the Portland Canal." II. W. M. Rolston proposed the t toast to "Our Quests" mentioning J several by name who had been actively connected -with the history l of the local branch and ably ex- J pressing the pleasure of the mem jbers at having these guests with ; them. , "William Dann replied to the ' toast on behalf of the guests, expressing amazement at the growth of the organization since the first dinner to veterans was given by himself in 1922, from which dinner the organization sprang which is now the Stewart branch of the Le gion. Mr. Dann then took his feat but was not allowed to get off so easily, the gathering Insisting that he give them an account of the Cocos Island expedition of which he was a member. He told several 'nterestlng and amusing anecdotes of his experiences In that connec tlon. The toast to the ladies was pro posed by A. JluHswurm, who treated the assembly to several highly amusing anecdotes of his experiences not -unconnected with the ladles during those war years when women -replaced the .men in Eng land. In a very witty reply Mrs. II. D. Rochfort drew a tragic picture of what the -world would be like without the ladles. During the evening sones were rendered by Edward T. Applewlialte and William 8. Orr, also duets by W D, Smith and James Morxice. A hearty vote of thanks and an jpreclatlon to the caterer was passed with loud anplause. The (evening concluded with community singing.
