Victoria, March 256—Special by wire— A resolution was today introduced by : and i d point was that the proposed line would George Fraser Gives Some Information about make the Boundary. creek district. terri-. tory tributary to Rossland, while the Corbin line would enter it from the United States. What most people out, there would like to see would ‘be both railwaya running. Ell Yet another important deyelopment in Rossland is the progress toward.com- pletion of the Webber Concentrating Works on Sheep creek, juat below Ross- land. If these worka do what their pro- jectors claim for them they will make a big di in business in’ as itis hoped by means of them to con- centrate six or seven tons into one, thus effecting an‘enormous saving in freight and reduction charges. eh An interesting political movement is on foot in the Slocan at present, Mr. Smith said in conclusion, to” induce, the dominion government to put an import duty on lead ores aid articles made - of lead, so as to encourage thé treatment of silvet-lead ores and the establishment of manufactures of lead‘pipe and other articles of lead in Oanada.’ ‘A delegation is about to go to Victoria to urge the the New Town and its Prospects. George Fraser, the popular druggist, returned yesterday froma trip to the — new town of Republic, on the Colville reservation. He reports everything lively and bustling down there with every prospect ofa great boom this year. The snow is about all gone and it is sandy and dusty on the streets. . He went in over the mountains from Grand Forks and said he passed at least 40 fe hi teams on the road, loaded . down with merchandise for the new camp. Lumber is scarce on the reserva- tion owing to the fact that timber is not allowed to be cut or sold. All lumber is hauled in from Grand Forks and coats from $40 to $60 a thousand. There are a great many ex-Rosslanders down there and all doing well. Among others he spoke of John Stack, who haa the largest general store in the camp. and is also the postmaster. Mr. Stack formerly conducted the mess house for the War Eagle company in Rossland. asking the dominion government to establish a mint in British Columbia. What London Says.
