WE are often asked, "What are they doing at the mines? Are they getting any gold yet?" Somehow it seems hard to believe a rich mine could actually be at our doors, instead of up at the pole or some out-of-the-way place.

Browning, late of the mining section of the U.S. treasury dept., presented an op- portunity to get an expert opinion from an engineer of standing, whose practical experience would give authority to his statements Our representative accompanied him over the mining district, and the result of the interview is given below. He has now gone east to test the samples of ore collected, and his report is expected in a Wouldn't it be a big thing for us if the hopes of the mining fraternity materialize, and the output of the mines justifies their great expendituré of money > szx and effort! DID yéu ever see a gold mine? "How is gold produced? -- the precious metal round which re- volves the whole machinery of "human existence: by which em- pires and nations rise and fall, which 'makes wars and ensures peace; the builder of industry, the measure of wealth and power, which governs the density of pop- ulations, and even influences the current of human affections. With such a thought in mind we put it up to Mr Robt. Wach- man, manager of the Wachman 'Mining Co., the other day. "Come out to the mines with me and I'll 'give you_the answer," he said. Next morning, with a party of nine or ten, we boarded the com- pany's launch and settled down to enjoy the trip across Lake Wabi- goon. Early as the season is yet, with the ice just off the lake, with -a fresh breeze rippling the water, the smooth running launch car- ried us swiftly southward. In a few minutes the Lake opened out before us, far-spreading, with its tree-lined banks showing green, and its many islets spread invit- ingly in the sunshine. A run of about an hour brought us to the wharf at the south end of Contact Bay. There we stepped ashore, and immediately found evidence of human enterprize con- ~ trasting vividly with the serenity of the virgin forest. Over a quar- ter of an acre was scattered huge, pieces of machinery that shortly will be assembled into a great stamp mill to handle the output of the mines. From there along a sort of rabbit trail we tramped Indian file into the shrubbery over a rich loam which before summer is far advanced will be all cleared and converted into a garden. Presently the trail broke into a wide clearing, in which could be seen the various buildingg that go to the making of a camp; not the slovenly, temporary quarters of the usual type, but well built, pic- turesque structures where one might readily contemplate staying \ us. And we turn to the engineer COURT OF REVISIQN. NOTICE is hereby given = that the Council of the Municipality of Machin will meet in the School House, Eagle River, on Saturday May 29th, at 2 p.m., as a Court of Revision for the purpose of hear- ing appeals filed against the As- sessor's Return of the Assessment Roll for the year 1920. All' parties having business at the said Court are hereby required to take notice and govern them- selves accordingly. : ALEX TURNER, &F = oN Clerk.

Rlainly, the present price of lumber was not considered when these were put in. Nothing has been spared to provide accommodation that will bear comparison with the houses of the average town. And just that is what they intend to build. Here is not a cook-shack, but a dining-room and kitchen, with a separate house for the cook; no bunkhouse for the men, but comfortable sleeping quarters, with iron beds, springs, and the finest mattresses, good hardwood flooring, and numerous other con- veniences provided. Considering the short period since the Com- pany started operations, it'is won- derful the progress that has been made. When the wires are run out from town carrying electric light and telephone it ought to be a delightful place to spend "a Loli- day in the country." Lt will easily be believed that by § this time we were readily persua- ded to see what the chef could do for us. What with the fresh air on the lake, and the breath of northern pine, we probably were those who have been privileged to lunch én a Canadian camp in the woods. could believe © how that food 'tasted. ; = 'And now to. the mine!
