Editorial Outcroppings The Late Session Ends
The Ninth Legislature closed after twenty six days with Lieut Governor Joly proroguing the House. It passed about sixty measures including telegraph and telephone competition for the Slocan and Southern Kootenay, immigration and mineral taxation reforms, and a mineral act amendment. The mining industry may benefit from road building, while small properties are spared from higher taxes.

Wakefield Mines defended against Mining Record critique
A local fault line in mining opinion argues that the Wakefield Mines warranted a mill and proper management. The writer contends the British Columbia Mining Record based its claims on hearsay and misjudged the ore, tramway and milling needs. The article asserts the mine, with a capable plan, can yield steady dividends for Slocan and warns against sweeping condemnation.
