Committee:* =

At the regular monthly meeting of the

ssland board of trade, held last eve-
ning at the City hall, the main subject
discussed was the morning paper’s ac-
counts of the ore shipments from this
camp.

F. W. Rolt held, as there returns were
widely copied, not only in Canada
but in England, they should be exact.

Fred Moffatt, on behalf of that paper,
stated that they could not be ebtained
for the. week in, time for the. Sunday
morning review, and therefore an ap-

the correct returns could not be gotten
until the following Wednesday. He

; claimed that they were near enough the
correct figures for all practical purposes.

He failed to atate that the shipment to

Trail was given for last week to be 20

carg, or 600 tons more than was actually
shipped.

A.B, Clabon auggested that it would
be better to wait until Wednesday or
Thursday and give the exact figures.

A.J. Millan thought differently. _He
said that, considering the source of the
criticism of the Mixer, “that no.attention
should be paid’ ‘to. them: He said* it
would be a pity to drop. that feature ‘of
the weekly morning review. He entirely
approved of the review of the mines and
ore shipments as given by that skeet.

The matter of the government wagon
road to Sophie Mountain was laid over
until ‘the survevs were completed. ,

J.B. Johnson; Lewis Blue.and F. W.
