The Lookout Mountain Mining
going ahead
with the development of the Joker.
A crosscut is now being run from the
bottom of the 80-foot shaft to tap the
main ledge. About 30 feet is now
done and it is expected the ledge will
be encountered within 15 feet. When
this is done it will give a depth of 125
feet below the surface. Several strong
stringers assaying from $6 to $22 in
gol have been recently crossed, all
dipping towards the ledge. The char-
acter ef the rock in which they are
now working indicates the proximity
of a large ore body. On the surface
the Joker shows very strong iron
capping assaying $12 in gold. The
ledge is 125 feet wide and extends the
full length of the claim between Bos-
berry and Biorite Falls. The Joker is
one of Trail’s high cards,

The greater part of the 50,000
shares of treasury stock that has been
sold is held by people living here.
The owners are firm in the faith that
they have a great mine and say that
their ore is similar in character to
that of the Le Roi, and they will
therefore be able to haudle all their
ore ata profitas it is now proposed
to handle that of the great Le Roi.

stress is laid and the fight hinges up-

for two men to be enclosed in a 24

especially when the one auxious to

CIMZENS DO NOR UKE IT

The Action of Lalonde’s Committee
Criticised.

IT LOOKS LIKE A_ RING

The Council Should Be Free to
Act Independently.

The following communication criti-
cising the “straight ticket” is self ex-
planatory.

Editor Recorp—In yesterday morn-
ing’s MinerI noticed that Lalonde’s
committee have brought out a
straight ticket. Now I fail to see
what good there is going to accrue
by this action. On the contrary
harm to their cause will result. Why?
Because if these nine alderinen yet
elected they are so elected that they
are pledged to act in harmony with
their leader, (Lalorde of courge), and
if hie Autocratic Majesty commands
that they do this that and the other,
no matter what it is going to cost the
city they are bound to act in harmony
and support him. Now. Mr. Editor,
what is the use of a council if they
are to be led along like dogs. Let
Mr. Lalonde be sole commissioner
doing without a council and give us
an autocratic form of government at
once. Tbe committee say that it would
be disastrous to the city if the coun-
cil were not in harmony with his
ideas. Now he may have some quaint
away back east ideas not suitable at
all for this community. I think the
boot is on the other leg; that is the
conncil should be in harmony with
the ideas ef the citizens, not Lalonde

to Rossland and formed the Silver
Leaf Mining company, capital stock
100,000 shares, par value $1.00 each.
He has associated with him in the
new company Frank Watson, George
A. Fraser, Chas. D. Carpenter. all of
Rossland. The Maple Leuf lies be-

or any other mayor. Then
it such was the case everything might
have some chance of running
smoothly, but surely uot in the other
case. I say, do away with the straight
ticket. It is nofusual on this side
for municipal elections. Let the al-

tween the E: and Arlins

pected if elected to be pledged to fol-
low Mr. ‘Lalonde implicitly. I have
my o@i ideas on municipal affairs
and would decliue to be , pledged te
support these of any candidate for
mayor and would not do so only when
they agreed with me.”

J. H. ROBINSON DECLINES.

Trying to Induce H. 8. Wallace to
Take His Place on the Ticket,

J, H. Robinson has refused to make
the race for alderman upon the La-
londe ticket and sayshe has no time
to devote to the discharge: of the
office. sat ;

The Lalonde campaign committee
have several ¢imes waited upon
H. 8. Wallace und requested bim
to fill the vacancy occasioned
by the resignation of Mr.
Robinson, Mr. Wallace was seen by
a Recorp reporter and said that he
had refused 'to accept the nomination
from the hands of the committee, but
if he was shown either by a public

or a i signed
by a sufficient number of prop-
erty holders and business men to indi-
cate that he could be elected that he
would allow his name to be used.
Just what action the commitvee will
take isnot known but Mr. Wallace
has surely acted wisely.

to support every motion proposed by
the mayor, it would seem to meun-

an opposition bench to keep the party

“In addition to the above, whilst
one might be perfectly willing to vote
for Mr.Lulonde or Mr. Scott as mayor.
he might be very unwilling to vote
